I cannot believe I had school today.
One week ago I was in China visiting the hotel. I chilled in the back room with a couple of friends who weren't doing their job. I spoke in Chinese and I remembered how much I missed them.
I miss them. I miss China. I would much rather be there than here. Maybe if I had longer to get back in the swing of things ( Read more... )

Oops. I lied. I arrived 12 hrs earlier because my parents like telling me wrong information.
First to call to entertain me while I unpack gets 200 friend points.

Spent the last couple of days jumping from this train to that train to this train back. I took a vacation. I realize there may be confusion since I am technically already on vacation. So let's just call it vacation^0.5.

I guess when you don't have three kids to worry about, you have a lot more time on your hands to do things for ( Read more... )

We’re fine. I didn’t mean to alarm anyone; I just didn’t want people to get angry at me for not telling them things. My sister is fine. Bored. But fine. She’ll be good within a few days and fully healed in a month or so.

I guess I forgot to copy/paste to lj. I was in a car accident. I came out unharmed. My dad was in a car accident. He came out ( Read more... )
