When Friendship hurts

Since last June, a few relationship with some girl friends have turned sour and it has been bothering me. It has been emotional draining and hurtful. I realize it is really not good for my health to hold on to any thoughts about it. But I can’t help it. I am here to wish for forgiveness if  I have done anything wrong to anyone. And I have forgiven you for what you have done to me.

So much love

Fighting with your own parents

Giving up a brighter future at the main office

Moving away from brother and a group of close friends

Countless sweet moments

So pure, so simple

So much patience

So much Love

for me

What Karma I have to deserve such

Basement

Playing with cousin Hua at the window near the stairs in my Grandma’s huge five-story house, I felt someone was watching me from the other building just as huge as grandma’s. I had this feeling for the past few weeks. I tried to see straight to it but then I never saw anyone. But today I saw my Mom for the first time in 5 months peeking from the basement window on the other side of the alley!

At age 6, I spent most of my year at grandma’s house playing with cousins. I haven’t seem mom but I thought she was at home working on the rice fields with Dad in Two Dragon village.

I got so excited and ran through the door toward the basement. But mom signaled me the quiet sign. I had to stop myself from calling out mom. Mom did open the door and let me in. She had a huge stomach which I didn’t remember the last time I saw her. I did jump on my mom’s lap and gave mom a hug very happily. I missed her.

This was the 4th child mom was having. The infamous one child policy started the year I was born in China. That was the reason mom had to hide and could only see her child me through the basement window.

Cody

It has been almost a week and a half since I petsit Cody. I still remember how scared Cody was on the first night I arrived at donna’s house. He even looked angry and kept looking for his master. He wouldn’t let me put the leash on him even though he really likes walking.

But just within that night, he started getting used to me and turned back to the normal mellow playful one. It was nice to have Cody greet me at the door after work. He is always so excited and happy to see me. The walks in the evening were nice. It always gives me a giggle when he pretends to bury his poops.

Even though Cody didn’t let me sleep much at night and I really don’t like that, I know I will miss Cody when Donna comes back this weekend. I will really miss when Cody just turns on his back and wants me to pet his tummy. He has the expression that he really enjoys it!

I am grateful for the experience!

Two Dragon village

Our house in Two Dragon village was right next to a pond. There was a tree by the pond next to our house. It carried my childhood fun. I loved to climb on it and sit on the giant branch and chilled. I also spent fair amount of my childhood with the pond. I went fishing shrimps during monsoon season. All the shrimps would come up to the surface and it was so easy to catch them. My sisters and I also went into the water and caught snails in the mud. We would let the snails throw up all the bad stuff they carry in the clean water from the well in our house. We actually ate them for dinner! With some garlic, mint and soy source, it was a delicious dish!

Things I am grateful for today!

1. My baby texted me and said sorry that he was too busy to answer my IM at work. I am really grateful for his caring!

2. I am grateful for having Linda as my teammate. She found some important bugs today.

3. I am grateful for the walk with Tami in the afternoon to chat about our life, plan and future.
