The dragon is a great animal in Chinese culture. It brings the wind and rain. It is said that every year on the second day of the second lunar (农历的) month, the dragon wakes up from its winter sleep and raises its head. Because of this, the day is called “Dragon Heads-Raising Day” (Longtaitou).
This year, it falls on February 24th.
Old people believed that after Longtaitou, there would be more rain. And rain is very important to farming. So Longtaitou was the start of spring and farming.

I began my love for music very young under the influence of my parents. The beautiful rhythms and lyrics make me relaxed. I usually listen to music in my spare time, I am also a member of the school music club, hoping to bring more joy to others through music.
When I feel upset,music helps to ease the pain. When I am too excited, music makes me keep calm. It is always there,like an old friend of mine.
