Honesty is the best policy

By mmiaf | November 12, 2008

I saw some pictures that is we took from Bao-Bao?s wedding party. You

looks very, very fat especial your arm and leg. I will e-mail you when I

figual out how to e-mail you.

I know you don?t like to hear that but I think you really need to do weigh

watch out and stop to eat any sweet foods. When you age go up that will be

very difficult to do diet. Trust me.

I am you mother I always tell you truth. You need do some excise expecial

for your arm and leg.

Analogies by Mom

By mmiaf | November 10, 2008

Yes, Fremont is lower than 60 degree at night?.

Be sure to sleep 9 hours, however, remember even if you miss one night?s sleep, it will take many many days to recover, to regain the energy. Especially, the pimples won?t remember that you are catching up the sleep later on. When I travel overseas and suffer from jetlag, the payoff later on is PIMPLES POPPING UP LIKE DAFFODIES IN THE SPRING, and lowering immune system and malfunction of digestive problems?.



I understand it is unavoidable as a college student, just like it is inevitable as a frequent traveller struggling for time difference.



Cheers and hope you are here so I can prepare soup to replenish your immune system?.

Nope, she could have taken the boat to the states from Europe. haha
 
So I send those links to my mom and her response is this:



I DON'T THINK SO... WE DO NOT SOUND LIKE ASIAN...HOW DISRESPECTFUL !! YOUR DAD HAS A BETTER SENSE OF HUMOR.



I didn't know my mother was a realtor.



BTW... my mom is a fob... how ironic.
