Chinese Zodiac Sign

Well, you should have heard of the Chinese Zodiac Signs, and how it follows the Lunar Calendar so the Chinese New Year Day is different every year, but always seems to be in February. Well this year it's on the 14th, and I'm sure you all know what day that is, Valentine's Day. And it's going to be the year of the Tiger. I was born on the year of the Rat and so are all my friends and everyone else in my year, or so I thought. I have just realized that some people might have been born in 1996 before Chinese New Year, so they would technically have been born on the year of the Boar. How stupid I must have been not to realize that. Well, my brother's got this scroll for the year 2010 and it's got the meaning for each animal. You know, all 12 and depending on which year you were born on you'd be like that. Well I found it quite interesting because it's sort of true =] and I think it's really reliable, depending, because it's true for me, I'm not sure about Molly but it's true for me =]. If you don't know what animal you are, the dates are beside the name, you can check and tell me if it's true for you as it is true for me =]. The next year where it'll be that animal will be in bold =].
