A few weeks ago... I picked the show "Prince of Tennis" on Netflix because it was in Chinese with English subtitles - and it was about sports and based off of a Japanese Manga. It was the perfect combination for the kids to enjoy... while able to learn some Chinese... but also know what's going on by reading the subtitles. And this was when we found out SW needs glasses. 😞

Unexpected Reunion
Been feeling it the past few days as we ventured into Acts... I almost wanted to text the class as a whole to reminiscing on those glory days. But alas... I held back. This morning... during Corporate TWA... we busted out Acts. Half of the class was there including the Tsang's... the Lee's... Li Manna!!! When the names 百基拉 and 亞居拉 came up... I couldn't help but text a few of them. Heh... and it wasn't just me. Most if not all of them felt the same way. Sigh.... the graduation we never had. But the annual reunion that will be forever.....

Closure
Around the Fall of 1988... Dad got us our first Nintendo. I still remember the days leading up to that fateful moment. Big Bro and I would pour over the same Toys R Us advertisement over and over again. Fighting, debating, arguing over the 2nd game to pick out. Cuz hands-down, without argument, we were getting Double Dragon. This game was double meaningful because it had two guys on the cover. After we got done fighting over the 2nd game, we would then fight over who gets to be the blonde guy or Asian dude. The night we picked up the console... I remember getting Double Dragon but the 2nd game was sold out!! So we ended up getting Contra, which spins off to a whole saga on it's own. We headed to Tony's house and quickly popped in our game. Tony and Howard already had their systems and their games. But ours were the newest and freshest.

Role reversal
Father’s Day tomorrow. I’ll be seeing both mom and dad and I find myself making 老火湯, cooking food, and prepping a food package for both parents, hoping they can get some good, nutritious food. My... how roles have reversed.

All Lives Matter
One side, a smile… a face
The other, an eagle.. a place
Toss and flip a million chances
Neither will make greater advances
Conjoined from the start
Never aligned, yet never apart
No greater no equal no less the mate
Built upon centuries of hate
Separated by the smallest of bridges
Perfectly carved a series of ridges
E pluribis unum
Divided we find our doom
Hatred, prejudice, unjust
Our hope is In God We Trust
I'm not a poet. But this was inspired by NN where she, a 10 year old, describes our current situation like a coin. You have two sides. Neither is right. Neither is wrong. Oddly enough, they can never be closer. Stranger yet, they can never be further apart. And in the middle of all this... inscribed on the coin... "In God We Trust." Who coined that term?? Not the founding fathers... no no. It was actually Abraham Lincoln... in the midst of the Civil War when our country was... you got it.. completely torn apart.

倘若
"就算全世界嘅人放棄你,我都唔會放棄你。 我會將我畢生嘅運氣都俾晒你。一直都係你身邊保護你,祝福你。加油。"
倘若我同你講...
“係藍色天空下飛翔、我只要想做你嘅翅膀、帶你飛向你嘅夢想。”你會點答我呢?
