Thanh's New Ride

It is a historical day. Thanh thought he was going through a midlife crisis, and as a result of this very emotional stage, he went out and bought his dream car. It's Acura TL with Navi in Moroccan red. The dealer really wanted to sell him the car and gave him an incredible deal that any breathing man could not resist. The bottom line is--I am happy for him. He has worked hard all his life first to go through the college, now to provide for his family. He deserves it!

7 Weird Things about Leslie

In response to Mari's tag on seven weird things about me, it's weird that it took me almost three months to come up the answers. Originally I thought it would be a piece of cake to name them one by one, but it turned out that I am not that weird after all.

1. I read obituaries on newspaper.
2. Remember the episode of "Fear Factor" that made the contestants eat cows intestines? I would have won if I was on it.
3. I like pig's ears, too. They are crunchy and chewy at the same time. (If there's # 8, it would be the gizzards.)
4. I have this tremendous fear towards the germs living on the bottom of every single shoe in the world.
5. I am an impulsive buyer, and Thanh is an impulsive returner.
6. I can sew pretty dresses for Samantha. But I can't sew a loosed button for myself, or for Thanh in most cases.
7. I am 30 and I have a 5-year-old-daughter! Growing up I always though I would be a business woman, and I wouldn't be married until I turned 28. I am grateful that my life is the way it is right now, and I won't change a thing.

Glad to get this assignment off my shoulder, and I can finally sleep tight tonight.

Samantha turned 5!

In the past month since we got back from Taiwan, we'd been in a "leisure" mood. We took kids to Houston Rodeo, Downtown Aquarium, two outlet malls, and we even rented a nice hotel room in Houston Galleria area over the weekend just for fun. Now we are broke. So I have to go back to my family blog just to fill up my time. I am just going to skip on posting all those wonderful pictures of our mini trips for now. (Sorry, grandma) But definitely check out our Samantha's 5th birthday party. The most appreciated comment will be that I don't look like a mom who has a five-year-old.
