Pigeon Food with My Parents

October 13, 2011 eating out

My parents are the most adorable people ever. If there’s anything I did right, it’s to be born as their daughter. I am proud to be the daughter of missionaries. And not just any missionaries, but missionaries to the Chinese people. However, because they are around Chinese people 24/7, my parents never get the chance [...]

The Top Chef Made Me Sandwiches

September 27, 2011 blog meet-up

If I had to choose, I would choose watching a TV series over a movie. I’m a big TV person. Ironically, I don’t own a TV (I watch everything on Hulu or Netflix). But yeah, I never like a TV series—I get infatuated with it. Thankfully, like all infatuations, I can hop from one object [...]

March 20, 2011 Los Angeles

When I first heard about the outrage over a UCLA girl’s rant against Asians, I was a bit surprised. I watched the YouTube in which she complained about the loud Asians on their cell phones in the library. Then she mimicked an Asian by singing, “Oooh! Ching-chong-ling-long-ting-tong, ooh!” I laughed. Yes, I laughed. Because until [...]

Luncheon with Mike

March 8, 2011 eating out

Friends, I normally do not like to boast. Well, maybe a little. But I try to keep it to the minimum, because boasting usually backfires and paints you as annoying/pathetic/desperate. Plus, the bible says not to boast. But I do believe there is a time to boast. And now is the time. Because nanny nanny [...]
