To: You

亲爱的弟弟,

你真地是一个很了不起的家伙。可惜地是你自己心里的障碍让你看不了你所有的优点。跟你说了好几百遍不要跟别人比较,你还是要跟顺子和我和同学们比。姐姐知道你心里面很复杂,有许多事你不太会开口自己提出来,可是你要知道你应该对自己多有一点信心。你有这世界上最忠实的支持者;我们都觉得你很有才华,有自己的想法,很努力地迈向更好的成绩。我只想告诉你要多有一点信心,要为你自己去进步而不是为了给别人看。好样的,加油。我会支持你和陪你走到底。

Hammurabi's Code

And other things. Hammurabi's for my etymology paper. The other things are for my friends. It's my genius  fault, really. I REALLY want to make a parallel between the hit show Friends  and my, well, friends. But we soon realized that the pool of characters wasn't enough to cover all of our friends. So, we started collecting more characters from TV show, cartoons, movies, books. Maybe what we need is our own original series. Too bad we don't have an objective third person to use as a narration device.

Let's start off with the easy ones... _____________________________________________________________________________ Coach Coach - Nick Kent if you're well-versed in the world of sports blogs - as I like to call him, has been a class...

I've never heard of it before?" a low-budget, 90s film perhaps? "nononono...You know the one with the 娃娃(doll) with the scar. Scary" "A doll? You mean Chuckie?" "Yeah. That's what I said. Scary doll, scared the shit out of me" "Really? Did you understand english then?" "哎呀(onomatopoeia of exasperation- aiyah! ) I didn't need to. So. Scary. At first, I watched by myself, but then I was too scared so I convinced your mother to watch it with me. She was pregnant with you at the time, I think. She thought the movie would influence your birth, but I was scared so there were no other options" "...So you risked your firstborn's birth to watch Chuckie?" "...Yes" ...

30 Day Drawing Challenge - Day 2: Favorite Animal

My darling Bonbon the Chihuahua. Who is more bark than bite. Who hates small children. Who is my favorite 跟屁虫. Who is a small dog in the land of giants. Who does not  shiver or have weird body proportions because she has more dignity than your average Chihuahua. Love of my life.
