ah get in.

Are you saying Arbor day is not a holiday next year? When exactly am I going to plant all of these saplings?

Aw son of a bitch. We got shortchanged having Chuseok on a weekend this year, and it looks like next year both Lunar New Year and Chuseok next year are on weekends. There go my vacation plans.

Arbor Day is now permanently a mere well-meaning sentiment, no longer a holiday.

And how many school close for Buddha's birthday? I don't remember ours doing so this year.

That's because it was on a Sunday this year (15 May).
