Dear Jadeboo,

Mom told me the good news that you have good responses from the interviews. Congratulations!!  We know you can do that.

However, there is one thing that we worry about you.  You never dress-up and never spend time in “make-up” like many of your friends or your sister. However, the first impression in the interview is going to be very important.  We just send you money via paypal to your Washington Mutual account.  Half of it is for you to buy some good dresses and shoes for your interview.  The other half is for your moving in the coming weeks.  You are welcome to spend a small amount in dining which is one of your favorites. However, keep it small!!!  Haaha!

Love,
Dad

I replied, assuring them that I am perfectly presentable at interviews, with a full suit and matching jewelry.  This was his response:

Send us a good picture of that.  We would love to see it.

Dad

I was knocking to go into my parents bed since their master bedroom washroom has the stored toothpaste & my washroom had ran out of toothpaste.

As I was on my way to my parents room, before I even knock, my dad yells out loud, “DO NOT ENTER! I AM IN SEXY MODE!”

I’m guessing, or pretty sure that he was changing into his pajamas.

My eight-year-old cousin was playing Pokemon recently, and he was trying to figure out which Pokemon he should pitch against a gym leader that specialized in Bug Pokemon.

I suggested to him that he could use Fire and Flying Pokemon. He didn’t believe me and went to ask my dad.

My dad told him he could use Bug Spray…

Sorry, just had to post this.

Thoughts on open discussions with your Asian rents on sex, the vulnerabilities of the web/social media, the thin borderline between racial humor (i.e. cultural inside jokes) and true racism?

E-Lecture from Dad.  Always a great thing to wake up to.

Steph: Today,I packaged all stuffs into 2 packages, which  is 17 lbs and 42 lbs, and I shipped via usps on 8/18/09 and  total cost will be $ 352.25( it is very very expensive<make me sickkkkkk…..))

Enclose the info which you need  for your record>

1.  Pakage  #1      # 17 lbs (17 x 11.5x 17)      Eta: 10 days from 08/18/09 #CP047128407US $ 90.75      (swimming buoy) in this box
2.  Package #2     # 42 lbs (18 x 16 x 18         Eta: 08/24/09 # EH760649123US $ 261.50      UPS  WILL COST: $ 430.00 . Due to oversize over all ,can not ship , must ship express mail and you will received on 8/24)

** Steph: It is expensive and unwise way tyo ship these stuffs, but we have no choice, FROM NOW ON YOU  MUST DEVELOPSOME LOCAL RESOURCE FOR YOUR LIVING REQUIREMNT, YOU CAN SHOPPING @ IMPORT STORE FOR THIS BED AND BATH ROOM STUFF  LOCALLY , DO NOT BE LAZY TO BUY THINGS LOCALLY, i KNOW YOU MAKE GOOD INCOME PLUS CURRENCY RATE DIFFERENCE, YOU CAN LIVING LIKE princess, but you MUST REMEMBER when time go bad and spend in shipping fee , IT IS NOT WORTHY AT ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! UNLESS YOU CAN NOT SURVIVE ON THESE ITEMS IN LOCALLY.  (Beijin is a big and modern city and have a lot of luxury apt and house , they must use high end stuff for internal design) so you mustUSE LOCAL RESOURCE IN P.R.C) TO SAVE A LOT LOTS OF SHIPPING  COST AND TIME TOO.   and thank you  for reading all is.

This is the fater’s talking may be out of date but IT IS TRUE ISN’T IT.
Have a safe flight  and joyful  business trip, relax and rest more!!!

Love you————-DAD.
