You will be asking the question when you're shaking the qians in the container... then when one finally comes out, like jcml says, you will hold the red crescent moon thingy and ask guanyin niangniang if this is the qian for you loh... then you throw... and see the answer.. Max 3 times... if all negative then should stop. that's how I do it anyway, dunno correct not...
About the Fri's lunch.. won't be able to join you leh. I just checked yesterday and realise I have a deadline to a report submission. So you gals go ahead ok...
