Single's Day

November 11th is the Single's Day. I don't know if it's worldwide or just in China. Because in Chinese bachelor can be called "bare stick" and 11/11 is the day with the most 1s, which looks like sticks. And this year is 2011 so Single's Day, 11/11, became Super Single's Day, 11/11/11. This only happens once a hundred years. Single's Day obviously is a day for single men and women to celebrate that they are not stuck in any relationship and couples should show mercy through not kissing or even cuddling in front of singles. This festival is getting more and more popular among younger generations. And a lot of traditions have been created. Like seeing breakup movies and listening to breakup songs. This year a movie called Breakup for 33 Days gain more than 150 million RMB box office, which is way beyond expert's expectation. In my opinion, Single's Day should also be a day to remind yourself it's time to get a company and wish no need to celebrate this day next year. No one wants to be alone. Right?
