Fortune Read

Tonight my parents and I went to Canberra to have a end-of-the-year dinner with my Grandmother and Gordon and uncle. I should clarify that this is the the Chinese New Year, where the new year is to start on February 14th this year.

As is customary with these kinds of things, one looks to the fortune tellers to elucidate what the year of the Tiger has in store for us. Gordon and I were both born in 1989 so  we are of the year of the Snake. Under "teenagers born in the year of the snake" we had several bits of wisdom:

Regarding Academics: If you are lazy this year your school work will suffer, but if you study hard and have diligence, you will get good results.

... Well duh :P

And the other bit:

Regarding Romance: This year you will have no romance whatsoever.

Regarding Romance: You will have a lot of trouble misinterpreting signs from others as interest in you, but be rest assured you are completely wrong and they feel nothing for you.

Looks like virginity will still be on that plate this year. Unless I act fast ... I have 4 days where I still have a chance in the romance department.
