A Step Closer...

This past week, I received a letter from the Canada Immigration asking me to do a medical check up for my PR application. It came as a surprise to me, since I thought it would take longer for them to process my application. I am so grateful for the speed they are working with, though. No complain here.

On another note, we celebrated Valentine and Chinese New Year, both on the same week. Calling home for Imlek was an experience in itself. I forgot how many members in my family there are. We spent an hour on the phone, calling numerous numbers. And we were only calling "the guys" from my dad's family, and my grandparents. Talk about a big family.

On Lying..

Lifehacker shows up with an article titled " How to Be an Effective Liar ". One comment cracks me up.. When I was a kid, I learned pretty quickly that the best way to lie is to tell the truth, but embellish it so much that it won't be believed.   "Did you have a party while your mother and I were gone?"   "Oh yeah! You missed out. It started out fairly small, but by the end, E! News showed up and the Goodyear blimp did a couple of flyovers. Luckily, Martha Stewart got the ankle tracker off, so she came out and helped us clean up afterwards. I'll make sure we take pictures next time." Hahaha.. ^_^

On Typing...

Does people realize that: 1. misspelling a word makes them look uneducated, and 2. using shorthand in emails makes them look 5 ?? Emails are NOT telegrams! You cannot save money by typing less characters in your emails, people! (I can understand if it's in SMS). Ugh! (Just have to vent...) >_<

Worried

I know intellectually that worry solves nothing. But I am worried. About the things that are out of my hands. And I am sad, because it involves people, and I can't do anything about it. I am starting to believe that helplessness is the root of all worries. Hhhh...
