Almost one year!

I haven't updated my xanga for such a long time! Mostly because I'm too obsessed with facebook and catching up with old friends I found there, also with work, studying, preparing for non-work related event at work...

Next Monday's our first year anniversary! I'm looking forward to it! The 1st year of our marriage flew by. Let's see how the 2nd year goes.

Life is short...

So please live the fullest out of it... Sean just told me his best friend's mom is not doing so well and might not make it... She's a very sweet lady... with a very loving husband... I remember I was so touched by the speech her husband gave at their daughter's wedding last year about his love for this lady that I couldn't stop crying... I saw the purest kind of love between them... I know she has been struggling with her illness for a very long time and I have always been impressed by her strength to fight against it... Just hope that she will make it thru this hurdle again.

Mom called me at 5:20 my time:) We talked for more than 30 minutes. She was more bubbly today. She even taught me how to make the kind of spaghetti she loves to make with ox tail soup!!! Her laughter over the phone totally made my day!!! Love my mom so much!!!

I LOVE MY FAMILY!!!!

Mom went see the doctor yesterday again... They are suspecting her memory loss was caused by me leaving Hong Kong.... Probably cos she feels too bad about me not being around and she doesn't feel motivated to do or remember anything anymore... I felt very very guilty when my sister told me that... That was really the last thing I would want to hear... Last night I kept thinking if I chose a wrong path for my life all along... I told my sister the same thing online last night. Part of her response was, "Many things are destined to be that way... If you didn't worship Western stuff when you were young, you wouldn't be that good in English". (Now I kinda remember she and my cousins always call me traitor or something... Such mean kids...)

I remember mom was pissed at me for a whole month after I told her I went to St. Louis to meet a guy I met online... She probably foresaw that I could be leaving her forever.. To be honest, I would never have done the same thing if it happened again. I don't even know how I managed to visit a stranger in the first place.. Pretty brave of me I guess, and stupid probably:) I guess there was some luck in me to have met Sean instead of some violant rapist/murderer type guy. I would say I am happy at this stage. I finally get to be with the guy I've been dating long distance for more than 5 years (It's our 7-year dating anniversary next Friday!!! Don't feel the 7-year itch yet:)). That kinda implies I didn't move to St. Louis by impulse, right? Work isn't as stressful here as in Hong Kong, neither is life, as there is really not much to do here... My acne finally clears up too, with the help of some US product and the less humid weather here in St. Louis (even tho it's still pretty humid here most of the time, it's not as bad as in Hong Kong). So overall I'm happy. I just wish that my way of accomplishing happiness never hurt my parents so bad.. I never thought it would. I just assumed everyone would get over this kind of stuff eventually... I'm so selfish...

My ultimate happiness would be moving back to Hong Kong with Sean eventually so I can be closer to my parents and siblings, since they probably won't have a good time living in St. Louis forever... Can that be accomplished??

Got a haircut again today:)

Pretty close to what I got before. The top is actually even shorter. That's a good thing. Cos the top grew way too fast before.... Katie gave me free hair product too!!!! I like her so much:) She's a very sweet girl!!!!
