Last Entry: The last time we visited the Marzena family we took a look back over how far they have come from the teenager Ame moving to Breeze Point to raise his toddler brother Denis. Ame told us about his experiencing with adopting their son Alvin and about become a Business Tycoon as well as the Head of the SCIA. Ricky talked about Alvin's birthday into teenager-hood and starting work at Hua-Lings Business. Finally Alvin gave us a little bit more information on his life and dreams.
Journal Entry 9,
Alvin has been working really hard at school and is bringing home straight A's, and quite a few girls! I sat and had a talk with him about it, I really didn't want to see him act like Denis. I love my brother, but I heard he already got our neighbor, Ekene, pregnant. I can only hope no surprises from his college days find him. Anyway, Alvin let me know that he had already talked with his uncle and he didn't want that kind of life. He wants to date a lot of different women, but he says he just really wants to meet a lot of different girls before he decides what he wants. I can understand that, not everyone find their love as quickly or easily as Ricky and I did. I started to sleep better after that, and Alvin starting asking me for help with different skills.
I decided our family needed a vacation. We had more than enough money, and with Ricky working, and Alvin working so hard in school it was time for a break. We scheduled up a flight and left for Takemizu Village. I checked us in and we began the wonderful time relaxing.
We traveled around the village and we all took turns grooming the Zen Garden. I got the chance to make a wish at this little alter and the strangest thing started to happen!
This money started falling out of the sky like rain, right over me. It wasn't really needed, but it did help pay for some of the trip. It was just strange. It was a lot of fun traveling around, taking some tours. We even found a hidden map and enjoyed visiting the hidden pagoda. The last thing I had to do before we left and catch up with the Ninja.
I learned a value tool from him, to Teleport. I find it useful when I really need to get somewhere quickly. We had an evening flight back, so we checked out of the hotel and headed home. Everyone had a really good time. Ricky and I got started on a garden. We had built the greenhouse and just had never bothered to plant anything in it yet. We decided to get Alvin started on learning it as well. It worked out well, and he took to it quickly.

Hello there,
Hua-Ling has decided to make me a manager of Ling's Party Supplies while she works towards opening a new store. I am very glad to be able to help her out. Alvin is such a wonderful son. He is doing quite well in school and he and Ame get along so well. We were all working so hard Ame talked to me about having a family vacation. I thought it was a wonderful idea and so we traveled to Takemizu Village. What a wonderful little place that was to visit. So many things for us to do there.
It was like a second honeymoon for Ame and I. I think sometimes we might have embarrassed Alvin. He is young, not yet knowing what it is like to be in love.
The trip was really over too soon, although not before I was able to learn to teleport. What a convenient skill that is to have. It should make moving about the store much easier for me. Back at home not much has changed. We did finally plant some things in our garden. Alvin has been helping with that as well.

Unknown Family,
So far the dates I have had have been ok. I found two very interesting girls, one of them is even a neighbor, but I'm not sure if any of them are the ones for me yet. I think that the best way to really find out is to continue trying to date as many girls as I can and then decide. 50 girls should give me a wonderful variety and a good sampling of what is out there.
Subira is a sweet girl and I actually have a bit of a crush on her after out date. My date with, I can never remember he name, it was unique, started with an A...well anyway, we hit it off ok, but it was really exciting. Dad gave me this doll he got from a witch doctor while he was on his honeymoon with my other Dad. I have found it very useful for helping with making friends. The family went on a vacation and that was a lot of fun.
One of my dad's had found this map, so we decided to follow it to this hidden Pagoda. It was really interesting and the man that lived there told me this tale of a Dragon. I had to share it right after that with both of my dad's it was just such an interesting story! I also shared it with this family we met who was traveling together too.
They actually had a really cute daughter. Before I knew it though we were heading home. I couldn't believe how fast the time went. Now it's back to school and well, dating. I did beg my dad's to buy us a Mahjong table when we got home. I learned it while in the Village and wanted to be able to keep practicing.
I did get a couple of more dates completed, I believe I am up to 7 right now. Only a couple of girls have really struck me.
Brittany was a fun date, and she wanted to hear all about my travels, but I just wasn't that attracted to her, so I don't think I'll be dating her again. I think I'm going to have to wait until I get to college to really get into the dating game and find that girl I really want.
Alvin
