Chinese Anyone??

So for the past six weeks, I've been taking a Chinese class once a week (1.5 hour/wk). The teacher asked us to write what we can for our final class next monday. This is the Traditional Chinese characters that is taught in Beijing. Does this make sense? My vocabulary is extremely limited....

Brrrrrhhhhh!!!!

So I get an email from a HS friend who lives in NYC...

"damn you guys and your hot ass l.a. weather.."

To which I replied....

Wait.. lemme put on my jacket... the weather has dropped below 70..

Skills Assesment Test

Pre-school children were asked the following question:

"In which direction is the bus pictured below traveling?"

Look carefully at the picture.

Do you know the answer?

The only possible answers are "left" and "right."

There is a logical explantion for the right answer. Post a comment. I'm curious to see if anyone above the age of 5 can get the right answer and reason...

Belated New Year's Pictures

By "New Year's", I actually mean the beginning of January 2006, not Chinese New Year!

There are a lot of photos in this gallery (3 subparts), and I was originally planning to put captions on every single one of them, but it just kind of petered out and then I kept putting it off.

Finally it seems that it's so long ago that there's no point in doing the rest of the captions.

So here it is, our trip to Orlando (well, the Orlando "area") in January. Enjoy! (You'll be able to get through the pics, if you happen to have about three hours free one of these days. :) Don't miss the amazing boat poses in Part 3!!

The captions will stop all of a sudden in Part 1. Why not think up your own captions and post them as comments at the gallery! Sure.

New Year Party at Grandma's

New Year party at Grandma's. Delicious food brought to us by Aunt Athena & Uncle Elliot...







A game of Jenga was started...


Will it be Katie who knocks the tower over?



Or will it be Elaine? Look at that face!

Or will it be Khanh?


Or Jennie?

Not Sandy, she is really good at this!

Maybe it will be Betty?

or Ryan?

Will Elaine make it through another round? The tower is teetering on one single piece at the bottom!

Elaine made it, and on to Khanh! Game Over :-)





Happy New Year to everybody!
