While on vacation, my brother was making everyone laugh by trying on silly hats and holding souvenirs, including a Crockett hat and fake rifle. My dad thought it would be fun to join in. If he was ever a real hunter, I don’t think he could catch anything with that face.

This is a conversation I recently had with my dad over dinner on my most recent visit home:
Me: Appa, do you like my new tattoo? (Flashes my dad the inside of my right wrist which reads a nickname that he always calls me)
Dad: (In thick Korean accent) Oh, yes, Sarah! Your daddy is-a soooo awesome! All your friends like that one?
Me: Yeah, they do. I’m thinking about getting another one, actually…
Dad: I have perfect tattoo for you, Sarah. You should get tattoo that says, “In Search of Handsome Boy to Marry” riiiiiight here! (Points to forehead and breaks into hysterical laughter)

Apparently, when my dad first moved to California from the Philippines, he hit a parked car. He drove home and told my grandpa who told him, “Things in the US are not like in the Philippines! You have to leave a note.”
Contents of note:
“Sorry I hit your car. —[my dad]“
