• Wow, it’s amazing how connected we are to everyone!

  First weird discovery:
  My first good friend was this boy named Steve, whom we met at daycare
  when we were 4.  When we were about 5-6 or so Steve’s family had
  to move, so I never saw him again.  WELL…I have this other
  friend named Terry Pham, who is the daughter of my mom’s friend. 
  Terry was looking at an old school group photo of her boyfriend when
  she noticed that there was this one asian kid (who had a big
  head).  Terry asked her boyfriend’s mom if she remembers who that
  boy was.  “O, that’s Alex.  Steve
  and him use to be good friends in daycare.”  !!!!!!!  So
  weird!  We actually bumped into each other one time in the mall
  and we didn’t recognized each other because it has been so long! 
  strange strange…
  
  
  Second weird discovery:
  This morning I woke up and one of my mom’s friend was there.  I overheard them talking about her son, Andrew Ho .  Does that sound familiar to anyboy here?

  So after she showed me a picture i realized that hey, that’s the guy Crystal Yu
  went to prom with!  I then found out that my aunt and Crystal’s
  dad share the same birthday, so they consider themselves to be almost
  family.  So yes, my aunt knew Crystal before we met at UMBC. 
  Andrew’s mom also mentioned something about Stephanie Leung, Lai and Crystal Li, but I forgot what exactly.

  BTW Crystal Yu, everyone seem to be very fond of you.  They keep telling me what a nice, smart girl you are…you’re definitely loved .
  
  
  One more minor discovery:
  Apparently a lot of my parent’s friends and relative know who I am, even if I’ve never met them.  They have labeled me as “Big Mouth Chan’s son”.  Heh, go figure.

  From ebaumsworld.com:

  Job Interview Question
  You are driving along in your car on a wild, stormy
  night. You pass by a bus stop, and you see three people
  waiting for the bus:

  1. An old lady who looks as if she is
  about to die.
  2. An old friend who once saved your life.
  3. The perfect man (or) woman you have been dreaming
  about.

  Which one would you choose to offer
  a ride to, knowing that there could only be one passenger
  in your car.

  Think before you continue reading. This
  is a moral/ethical dilemma that was once actually
  used as part of a job application.

  You could pick up the old lady, because
  she is going to die, and thus you should save her
  first; or you could take the old friend because he
  once saved your life, and this would be the perfect
  chance to pay him back. However, you may never be
  able to find your perfect dream lover again.

  **Which do you guys choose?**

  The candidate who was hired (out of
  200 applicants) had no trouble
  coming up with his answer.

  He simply answered: “I would give
  the car keys to my old friend, and let him take the
  lady to the hospital. I would stay behind and wait
  for the bus with the woman of my dreams.”

  Never forget to “Think Outside
  of the Box.”
