228

Sorry to be late. So many things pop up!

Last Thursday, we took a trip to Taipei with my Ma and Daniel. Well, during the trip, Daniel was so helpful. Ok, right, we went to ask Chris for the date - wedding! And again, we lost! Mia and he are not going to marry this year, AGAIN! Although we tried hard with Mia's parents, I guess it won't be our last time to ask them for the date. It is difficult on Taiwanese culture, Mia and Chris run out our patient, they should get married in their 3rd year and it was last year - Gone. Now, it's our responsibility for Mia - to gurantee her future. Well, this pressure is on my parents. Don't ask me the reason, that's what we do in my family.

Of course, we did have dinner with girls - Amanda, Candice, Alex, Cynthia. Amanda works in a shipping company and she is happy to work in official hour with weekend off. She just starts a week, so I wait for later on to ask her more information. Candice is still in that Japanese company, and she got a boyfriend now. We will testfy this guy soon. Alex is going to start job hunting and hopefully he can find something to do with room design. Cynthia is still in Sheraton and does man hunthing. I guess it's about her time to push up to Director - senior management.

When we were in Taipei, I intendend to do a post but Daniel kept me handful. Plus my Ma hasn't been to Taipei for visiting for 3 years, therefore, many people to see, to visit, to chat. And DC, he spent whole day in bookstore and those books are heavy!!!

Anyway, we packed and headed back home on Saturday. On the way home, we pass by the central of Taiwan. We paid a visit to the town - Wufong, the earthquake museum of 921. It was amazing how earthquake effected on our life. It was incredible to see the energy push up the land levels. The land was push up more than one meter high and there were 3 waves on landscape which break down a line of school classrooms into 3 parts individual building. Since I was little, I was told how to prepare for earthquake. Hopefully, this trip can help DC to prepare for it too. I am going to take DC to East Taiwan which is shaking frequently without notice.

Alright, back to home, we didn't have time off or get our life back yet. My Ma got sick and I got my monthly visit. Still, I have Daniel with me, so, it was rough and we were on our own. My Da went for meeting in Taipei. Mark and Joan were busy with new turn of chicken farm. DC tried to catch up with his process. Well, there were not too many things to do, but sometimes, Daniel could be handful. Ma slept for whole day on Sunday and Monday without eatting. And then she got better, start with some plain congee and today still.

Today, 228, is a memorial date for Taiwanese. Many stories keep appearing under sunshine now. People can look back and try to find out what had happen.
