Confession: i don't know how, nor have i ever tried (i know i shouldn't use that word), to put on lashes. I dislike how girls be at an advantage with their height and their skills with makeup, lol!! I should've gotten on the brow and lash train like 10 years ago. But oh well, once u wipe everything off, I'm pretty much the same, IMO. They do look ( Read more... )

The reason i had to be back today by 9 was to watch ba ngoai because my mom and ong ngoai were going to ong Thanh's 100 day anniversary. Oh man i got her breakfast, we both ate toast while looking out the window. She either rinses or brushes teeth after so today she rinsed but i think i gave her water that was too hot, oops!!! Then bathroom, peeked ( Read more... )

I was quietly eating dinner at the table. Mom wasn't home, then came home, and was in the kitchen finding food. She didn't ask grandparents how they were today. "...not in the mood," she said. The TV channel had on movie trailers and Vietnamese commentary. Grandpa noticed grandma fell asleep. "Are you sleeping?!" He gave us the remote and said it ( Read more... )

I saw my grandma hit my grandpa's leg after he said something when my uncle was here. Thought she was sly! Last night my grandpa looked at my grandma's life lines and i heard him say "ba co tay dep" (you actually have pretty hands) and after looking at them he didn't let his grasp go.

I only want to coup myself up in my room after work, but on some days I really force myself to just sit outside. I'm glad my grandparents like to keep out of our way that they just do their own thing, and if we talk, we talk, if we don't, they carry on. I made dinner, brought my laptop out, and did things, yeah things. Eventually we all got to ( Read more... )

My mom suggested that I sit outside, instead of in my room, because my grandparents don't see anyone all day and so it's nice. So, Sunday even when I was totally out of it (my blood pressure was LITerally 85/60---hypotension status forreal), I sat outside, I ate, I did whatever.  A typical day for me is emerging from my room, saying hi to my ( Read more... )

Ba Ngoai asked if I'm 17. She also said she's 100 years old. Haha. Crazy that the youngest in our fam is now 17! She also said i must workout for hours everyday. Hours! She also said she doesn't have time to test her blood pressure when her day is comprised of eating, listening to Buddhism stuff, sleeping, and repeat. She's funny. We tested her BP ( Read more... )
