Happy...

Nov 01, 2003 08:07

3:30 p.m. yesterday marked my 12th year of being in the United States. Ironically, I called my mom from the 405 at about 5:15 near La Tijera Blvd, which is probably close to where my family would have been 12 years ago. It's hard to think that my life here really began with two incredibly brave parents and five suitcases.

And every day I'm grateful for my parents bravery; I couldn't imagine not being here. And perhaps it's the time of year, or my incredible draw of luck these last few days...perhaps it's the actual events of the last week, but I'm incredibly happy and intend to stay so for a very long time.

Happy November!
