| "why are you sooo far away?"
and I thought:
"Can life at home gets any harder?" Surrounded by loved ones, yet I felt utterly lonely.
I guess you dont appreciate someone's presence until you parted from that individual.
2 more weeks, until then I'll stay in bed with my MP3s and a good book. |

| So today is the day I planned all week to take my old grandma out to the museums of San Francisco. I had envisioned in my head of our time together under the sun, of her telling me long stories about her youth. We will talk for a long time and I will be the most happy with her, just like the time we spent when I was growing up.
Unfortunately, the Northern California treacherous winter had given us a very frigid night. My grandma was the first to feel its wrath. She caught a cold and felt horrible the entire morning. My grandma called to let me know that she wont be able to make it on our outing today. I was brokenhearted.
So I cooked up some ravioli. Came to grandma's place to save her from the desolate lunch routine. She ate all of my ravioli and we talked. My grandma prepared the dessert for me. We had a great meal.
After lunch I turned to my book while grandma lied on the living room sofa reading her Viet magazines. She quickly felt asleep like an angel. As I quietly got up and leave I could see a small stream of tear from her eye. Could this be from: - her guilt for nothing making the outing that I was planning for all week?, - her helplessness from her current health condition?, - her loneliness of being alone in this world without a partner?
What EVER the reason was, I wished for ANYTHING in this world to wipe her tears away. Instead I slowly walked away hoping not to wake up my grandma from her peaceful escape.

| so I've learned two things since the time that I've been away so here they are:
1. "guys think that a kiss is the beginning of a good night, girls think that a kiss is the beginning of a relationship". So both gender should be careful who they are kissing.
2. "It is usually the smaller dogs that bark the most, the bigger dogs just lay down and sleep since they dont have anything to worry about" - same thing when people bark or scream at you, they are letting the insignificant things in life get in the way of their own sense of humanity.
thats all for now.

| I feel sorry for our incompetence President. It seems like anything that comes out of Bush's mouth is irrelevant. It must be very frustrating not being taken seriously anymore. |
