[E] Zzzzzzzz

I feel like I haven't been sleeping well since I've got the basset hound in 2012. Not that she's barking I'm the middle of the night, but she for sure likes pacing around the house sometimes. This photo was taken in 3am.

[E] You know you're Asian when...

You know you're Asian when...
(the X mark means it's true in my life)

Your mother has a short-haired, curly perm (My mom has naturally curly hair! No need for perm)

Your dad is some sort of engineer (Does vet count as some sort of engineer?!)

Your parents still tried to get you into places half-price saying you were 12 when you were really 15 (I'm always look like 15)

X You ask your parents help on one math problem and 2 hours later they're still lecturing 

X You have a 40 lb. bag of rice in your pantry (Eventually the amount of rice decrease, so I actually don't have 40 lb. bag of rice :P)

X You shop 99 ranch (I don't, since 99 ranch only exists in WA, CA, TX, but I shop at local Asian Market)

Everyone thinks you're "Chinese" no matter what part of Asia your ancestors were from or you are from (so far I don't have this problem...last week, one of my coworkers that I've known for months was asking me how's my family in Japan lol I have to explain I'm from Taiwan...but I do have relatives live in Japan :D)

X You've had a bowl haircut at one point in your life (Mom, why did you do this to me?!)

X Your parents enjoy comparing you to their friends' kids (they always think other people's kids are better lol)

X You drive mostly Japanese cars.  (Yup...Toyota...I am thinking about getting a Subaru next time)

X You've learned to keep bargaining even if the prices are rock bottom (l've learned it, but still can't really do it)

X You've had to eat parts of animals they don't even put in hot dogs (It's yummy, what can I say?!)

X At least once, you've started a joke with "Confucius say...." 

[E|C] Tonight's Dinner

My boss was asking whether my husband likes what I cook - I was like...ugh...he has two choices, he either accepts the food or he can cook his own food...hahahahaha

ok...I was just joking (but not really lol)

One USA Unit and I both like to EAT :D and to his credit, he is willing to try many many different dishes. When we were dating, he's been trying my crazy Asian fusion dishes, and he seems enjoying most of the food. I am lucky to have a husband that's not super picky :)

Tonight's dinner - 

• Stir-fried Marinated Tofu 
• Stir-fried Pork
• Stir-fried Water Spinach with Garlic

[E] Nothing Special

What happened recently?!
Theres only one thing changed - hubby got a new job!!!! Yay for him, new challenge, new environment, and new people!! Fun!!!!

I'm pretty much doing the same things - working, playing piano, and trying learn different things here and there. In the past 10 days, I got to catch up some old friends/coworkers. It's always nice to see people once in a while for some updates :-)

Weather is weird. It was 70 something one day and the next day was 30 something. I feel bad for the flowers :-S

[E|C] Package(s)!

My sister sends me packages pretty often. THANKS A LOT!!!! Fun clothes, food, goodies...etc!!! They just came back from Taiwan and she got me tons of treats (which are not in the photo), and some other fun stuff :) 

我姐常常寄包裹給我！真是太感謝她了！我常常有好吃好玩的東西，都是我姐送的呢！我真是太幸福了 <3

[E|C] Declined?!

I sent an painting event invitation to One USA Unit and my parents. Guess what?! Both of my parents declined it...they are high tech enough to decline my invitation...ugh

I sent them another one for the NBA game...let's see whether that one goes though.

我用谷歌寄了活動邀請給老公和我爹娘，我爹娘居然回說他們不參加...orz...蝦米？！

我那天回到家，他們兩個還很高興的跟我說，我們已經回你的邀請函了...這...

哼，我今天又寄了另一個邀請函去看NBA～該不會他們又拒絕吧 XDDD

[E|C] Piano

I got this piano back for free after we got our house. I used to play piano when I was little...little little...and eventually my parents stopped paying for the lesson - which was a very correct decision since I wasn't really into it anyway. After I got this piano, I've started to picking it back up. I am not taking lessons, but maybe I will later. I have a goal that I want to volunteer at the hospital to play piano next year. I think I am getting closer and closer to my goal :)
