LOL! Not really. I think I am still lacking sleep ^^" But it is my own doing since I am absolutely addicted to reality television shows and 'Numb3rs' so I can't sleep until I watch an episode or two. And then when I am anxious to know what happens next, I just have to continue watching!

Good day everyone!
I'm so into the Christmas spirit right now even though I had quite a long day at work! But it was a good day. I started putting candy on my colleagues' tables and playing Christmas songs in the office.

That sounds like fun. :)
I'm glad to hear that someone is really getting into the spirit. :lol: I myself have started up an art shop . . . and I'm having fun making a b-day present for someone here on Mene. *giggle* It's fun, I must say. I want to do a Christmas/Hanukkah one, but I'm not really sure I want to work on extra stuff right now. :rofl:

Oooh! You're already planning Christmas presents for Mene people :) I haven't thought about it just yet. I saw your art shop and mewmew's example. You have a personal style which is pretty unique. But it is kind of unfortunate that you do not have a scanner. It definitely makes a difference.
May I ask, what is Hanukkah actually? I know it is a Jewish holiday but what exactly do you guys celebrate? We barely hear about the holiday over here in Malaysia ^^"

Malaysia? Sweet. :)
*clears throat* Alright. So Hanukkah is a Hebrew word which means (among other things) dedication. It is a celebration of when the Jews rebuilt the Holy Temple in Jerusalem. :yes: (Be prepared, I will randomly remember things as I go along.) It started back when the Syrians were gaining control of the entire Middle East-ish area, and were invading and conquering nearly everything in their path. They would force Greek culture upon God's people, and I've heard many stories that recount soldiers making Jews worship Greek gods and sacrifice to them in God's Holy Temple. They even errected statues of Zeus and other gods in the temples themselves, and forced the Jews to bow down and worship them. (This is massively against the Lord's commandments!)
There was an account of when Antiochus Epiphanes, a Syrian conquerer from 175 BCE, destroyed the Temple. He banned circumcision (which is one of God's commandments for his people) and ordered pigs (which are considered unclean animals) to be sacrificed on the altar. The studying of scripture and practice of Judiasm was outlawed (which is where we get Dreidels - they're a "game" that covered up the studying of God's word).
*takes a deep breath* The revolt against this ancient ruler came with one family - the Maccabees. They eventually won the war with God's help, but were sickened to find that their beloved temple, a place of worship and dedication to God, was completely destroyed. They cleaned it up and restored the Temple, but only had enough oil to burn in the golden menorah (which is like a large candelabra with seven branches) for one day.
You see, it took 8 days to create the special oil, but there was only a little bit. So after much debate, the Jews finally decided to burn it right away, and just make the oil while waiting for it instead of waiting first and burning it later. The oil lasted for 8 days instead of its usual 1, thus the eight nights of Hanukkah. :)
I'm sorry for the monster post . . . I still have more to say. :lol: If you have questions about something, let me know! I love talking about this kind of stuff. :yes:

No problem! That is really one of the most interesting posts I have read! O.O I have heard of the Maccabees and dreidels but I never knew the story behind it. I know the song 'dreidel dreidel' and that you burn candles during the holiday. But I never knew how sacred and symbolic it is.
We don't have many people openly practicing Judiasm here in Malaysia. We only have 4/5 main religions that we see. Islam, Christianity, Buddhism, Hindhuism & Sikh... I am Buddhist by birth but am not a staunch one but listening about other people's cultures is really interesting.
