你有没有?

今天早上打电话回马来给两位前辈拜年。已有好长的时间没跟他们通话了,感觉好窝心。。。在跟前辈B谈天说地的当时,突然间她冒出一句:


“你有没有?”

“huh???"

"你有没有??”


我真变得傻眼了,有什么东东啊?偶不是听不懂中文,只是脑子里真的转不过来, 听不明白她在问啥。。。接着她哈哈大笑的, 我才明白她所谓有没有是指什么。。。


哇哈哈。。。好可爱的妈妈!

ah jek..ah jek...

2 days ago, I told my sis that I wanna see Ivan on msn webcam at night, and LKM wanted to see him too. Ok...when we started webcam-ing with each other, and when Ivan only saw me, he just acted like normal, busy here busy there...I don't know if he calls me yee since their mic were broken and I can see he wasn't paying too much attention to me =(

OK...LKM appeared on the screen. Guess what...Ivan was so so so so super duper happy to see him..he pointed at the screen and called ah jek ah jek with his smiley face. Although the mic didn't work, but I can tell from from his mounth that he was calling ah jek ah jek...he was just too excited to see LKM. Jumping, smiling and smiling.

Ivan just so used to call LKM ah jek ah jek (according to my bro-in-law, Hokkiens call their father's younger brother as ah jek, meaning younger uncle). Nobody teach him this, at first we taught him to call yee zhang...he can only pronounce 'tann"...sometimes 'zhan'..sometimes 'yeeeeee..zhan'.....but recently he called LKM as ah jek ah jek =p

I think Ivan must be missing his ah jek alot, so do we.

We love you too, happy boy!

A yellow sticker on the wall of my room...

When I moved into this new room, I saw a small tiny yellow sticker with few sentences sticked on the wall...it was actually from the previous tenant, which is also my best buddies here...Here's what she wrote:

"Each task makes us become more mature and leads us to know how to appreciate life. Our responsibility not only to our life but also those people we love and loved us."


Thanks, Siew May =)

New Yorker-Minnesotian

I am finally in Minnesota. Due to the weather condition, we spent almost 3 days to drive back from New York. We had passed through NJ, PA, OH, IN, IL, WI then MN...cool isn't?It was snowing all the way from PA to Chicago, the road condition wasn't that good, and we saw couple of accidents. Thank GOD that we arrived here safely. It was really a long drive and LKM said he will never ever drive like this in the winter time anymore =p

Although I have been here twice, I think I still have a little cultural shock. Living environment, weather(I see snow everywhere...I see snowing before I go to bed, and snowing again when I wake up, and it was -29C yesterday morning), people..etc.....I've missed my cute nephew,Ivan THE MOST, he used to come to my room and wake me up by calling me yee yee every morning, I really missed this alot alot =( , and of coz my lovely sis's nagging..hehe.., cuttie bro-in-law's humorousness & other good friends!!!

Anyhow, I am happy to meet my buddies here, and I made new friends too! I always believe that everything happens for a reason. Perhaps this is a chance for me to learn and to share. Many people here told me that they don't like snow. No doubt, snowing really brings alot of inconveniences, but I still love snowing very very muchie,I get excited when I see snowing...I just don't know why, perhaps this is the reason I am here. I still need some time to adapt to this new place, but I am sure that I will love MN in one day. =)

Not to forget, thanks to my baby Altima for bringing us here!




I put these beatiful pics of my family in my room, so I can see them anytime!

Life is beautiful~~*

An excellent blogger-to-be

Ding Ding Ding....Finally, I have my own blogspot after spending and sitting in front of my laptop for more than 3 hours. I like reading people's blog, but for me I always think that writing blog is wasting time(especially when I see my sis stayed up in the midnight to update her blog).

Anyhow, I just decided to start my blogging so that I can share and update my life in the States with my friends and family, and I think blogging is also a good way to express my thoughts and feelings.

I enjoyed the time I spent to figure out the setting of blogspot...hehe,a little proud of myself for having the blog layout in such a short time =p

P/S:Thanks to my sis for helping me to set up this blog...Arigato!

Footprints

Footprints
One night I had a dream--I dreamed I was walking along the beach with the Lord and across the sky flashed scenes from my life. For each scene I noticed two sets of footprints, one belonged to me and the other to the Lord. When the last scene of my life flashed before me,I looked back at the footprints in the sand.I noticed that many times along the path of my life,there was only one set of footprints.I also noticed that it happened at the very lowestand saddest times in my life. This really bothered me and I questioned the Lord about it. "Lord, you said that once I decided to follow you,you would walk with me all the way,but I have noticed that during the most troublesome times in my lifethere is only one set of footprints. "I don't understand why in times when I needed you most,you should leave me." The Lord replied, "My precious, precious child,I love you and I would never, never leave youduring your times of trial and suffering. "When you
saw only one set of footprints,it was then that I carried you."
