My love to you...

Dear Daddy,

Hope you get to read this. Happy Birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you!! Thank you for all that you have given me: a comfortable life, the opportunity to study abroad (twice!), the chance to get a masters degree, independence to live my life, the ability to choose my own other half, and a good happy family. From you, I have learned modesty, a taste for good food, an appreciation for going marketing in the mornings, a love for Mercedes and BMWs, the importance of patience and the importance of family.

You will always be the man I love the most Daddy!
I hope I've been a good daughter, and that you think of me the way Bob Carlisle did in his 'Butterfly Kisses' song!

Sincerely,
the best daughter you could ever have! :) 

me and my daddy. 

Dear Huihui, 

I know you'll read this eventually, so I hope I resisted from telling you to read it. :) Happy 23rd Birthday my dear!! From being 22 to being 23... you've had your first relationship, had your first 'being a president' experience, experienced your first dadadadas ;) , graduated from college, successfully moved all the way across the States, made new friends.... Ah so much has happened. So... I wish you many many more eventful occasions (good ones of course!) as a 23 year old! Know that I love you! 

Sincerely, 
Lola
Wonderwoman and Sailor girl off into the world together, hand in hand! :o)

恭喜发财!

Last year my cousins were stalking my blog without me knowing. I hope they do it again this year and read this...!

Dear cousins, aunts and uncles,

新年快乐!恭喜发财!
I wish I was with all of you back in Taiping at the moment! I want Chinese New Year cookies to munch on instead of potato chips and random crap I'm cooking. I wish I had all of you to eat with and watch tv with! I wish I wish I wish that we could all be together playing 'Heart Attack' just like the old days or gossiping and telling each other stories. I wish I had yummy yummy food to eat until my stomach burst.

Aiyo, you'd think that this being my 5th year in the US, I would have gotten used to not celebrating Chinese New Year... honestly, no... still not used to it.

Miss all of you sooo much!

Love, Yvonne.

To comfort my sadness, I'll just be playing dong dong dong qiang music today.
