I was telling my dad about some of my frustrations... and so my dad says...

"I think the few years in States have given you quite a lot of freedom to do
somethings. Freedom never enough one. No need to wish to have more. Make
the best use of what comes around and enjoy it."

I don't talk to him about personal stuff very often actually. But when I do I find myself reminded of simple things in life that I forget so easily.

I miss home. I miss my sister so much. I would give up anything now to zip back home and take my sister out bowling. Or sneak out with her to Heartland mall to eat KFC. Or watch 7 o'clock chinese show with her. I sit here thinking of what birthday present I should get for her, but my heart tells me that what she wants isn't a toy or clothes or whatever... when I ask her what she wants, she replies,

"Ni mai gei wo de li wu wo yi ding xi huan".
