      Well, the stick showed it, and the ob/gyn confirmed it. So I guess I am officially pregnant now! The baby is in its week 7 and is the size of a blueberry. This week the baby is developing arms and legs. It's mind-boggling a 'thing' the size of a blueberry has hands and feet!Wow, it sounds so surreal! When I took the pregnancy test, I was expec […]

    • Happy Chinese New Year! January 23, 2012
      Yay! The first day of Chinese New Year. This is the year of the dragon, which is probably the most auspicious year for the Chinese, since we Chinese are the descendants of the dragon.Every year during this time I miss my family terribly. It's supposed to be a time for family gathering and I miss out on that every year ever since I moved to the U.S. Sigh […]

    • Story #358: Thanksgiving 2011 November 26, 2011
      Happy Thanksgiving! I had a great time in Las Vegas with my cousins and their families. One of my cousins and her daughter flew in from Malaysia and they drove to Las Vegas with my other cousin and her family. It was so great to see them and get caught up on each other's life.

    Pageant

    By Leighton | July 28, 2008

    Saturday I drove up to Salt Lake City with my brother, sister and grandma. We went to see my Mom as she competed in the Pageant for Ms UN International. The drive was long but we got there fast. The theatre was on the Utah State University Campus. They had categories for Miss Teen UN International, Miss UN Internation, Ms UN Internation (my mom’s category), Mrs UN International, and Ms Elite UN International (for old ladies). It was long but it was fun to watch. They had lots of people from Singapore and Malaysia. My mom ended up getting 4th runner up to Ms UN International. We decided to drive home that night rather than stay with my Aunt in Salt Lake City (my great aunt is on a mission there at Temple Square, and she stays in the apartments across from the Conference Center with all the Sister Missionaries). We stopped by to see them then we drove on home. My sister drove most of the way home while I talked to her to keep her awake. We got home really late.
