Today, Vinh came over after mass and after Noah's baptism, we ate my mom's pho at my house. He did the sweetest thing that made me tear up inside, to myself, because I felt that he is the one that will be the father of my children. I felt future happiness. He fed Nia a spoonful of noodles while Nia was sitting on Hong's lap. A simple yet so powerful act. It made me think, how sweet, and I can see it already that I really love him. Kayla and Nia always follow him. He is so good with kids! And he wants a girl first. And then a boy. I do too. It was a moment I'll always want to remember.

Can't Hardly Wait

There's so much coming up this Summer! I can't wait. I'm going to Destin with my honey! Along with my little sisters and Tien. =) and I also invited Hoa and her family. I invited Hong too, but she can't go because of her move in to the new house and new baby. I tried inviting other friends too but they're busy or can't go. Tien's friend from out of town might come along too. But we'll see. I've been busy just working and spending time with family every other weekend. Gma's 100 day anniversary just passed. Vinh was there to help. I really feel we are a couple now in our family. Everyone sees him as my Hubby. hehehe... Last weekend me and Vinh went to visit Hoa and her kids in Lafayette. And on our way home, went to Mall of Louisiana in BR and had dinner at Sake Cafe and ate Menchie's! It was the perfect day/night date. Full moon and everything. Then on Sunday we went to the Crawfish Fest and ride the ferris wheel. Full moon back again. It was so romantic and funny!!! It was so cold and windy but there's nothing like kissing behind our hoodies that made is much warmer. Lenten season gives us excuses to go out and eat sushi all the time. Vinh introduced me to creamy wasabi sauce... Yummy! So much better than the actual wasabi paste in soy sauce. Anyways, life's been great. Easter is coming. But I'll be working. =/ It's ok. We always eat good on this shift! BTW, I paid off alot of my credit card debt. =) Vinh is doing good too... I really do love him.

Blissfully Happy

How much can you tell someone you love them so they'd know how you feel? "Every Goodmornings... and Every Goodnights..."

Wow, can I say how wonderful he is?! My boyfriend treats me the way I should've been treated. I don't know why I made excuses for my past relationships. I think he can't believe how I was mistreated before. It doesn't take alot to please me he says. I'm easily excited over little things. And I guess with the right person, anything can make me happy. He says he likes to spoil me. For my birthday, he got me what I wanted and more... First of all a Bear, A big teddy bear so I can hug to sleep like I do when I'm with him. He tried getting it for Christmas, but he said it wasn't big or cute enough. I told him to pick something that was "Him" and he finally found it when Valentine's bears were being sold. Haha!! But he didn't had a chance to drop it off for me until my birthday. We also got into a lil arguement, but it was nothing really. He made it up when he got me the Yoshi Plushie Doll!! He knew he's my favorite character. It is soo Cute!!! I had to take a picture of it with him. and on top of everything, He got me a camera!! that's the best present of all cause he knew I needed a new one since my old one broke. I mean the zoom doesn't work. so he got me the one that zooms alot more than my old one. LOL!!

Well, I want to write more, but I gotta go to work soon. So I'll be back!

Happy In Love with Him~!

Over the past few months, I cannot begin to write how wonderful it is being with him. Before my gma passed away we visit her often and one time she held our hand one in each of hers and said something very nice. She told us to love each other with all our hearts in Vietnamese. And he's become closer and closer to my family each day. For Thanksgiving, he came to the house with vietnamese ice-cream for my parents and cookies for my niece and nephews. We ate and hung out. At night we all went to visit gma, which happened to be the last time I saw her. Then we prayed for gpa death anniversary. After that, Vinh and I went to Chi Diep house with Vi and Anna and had so much fun playing cards and eating and drinking. He took me home at a decent hour so I can go to sleep for Black Friday sale. I told him that he made my Thanksgiving an unforgettable one. It was pleasant and simple. Just being with the family and stuff, it made me love him even more. And I think my Family really likes him. My dad even said something about Vinh's parents being future-in-laws when the whole family was down for the funeral. He said it out loud in front of him too. >.< When they got to Vinh's parents envelope of monetary money. That takes alot coming from my dad who usually is cold to my other older brother-in-laws. Then the jokes with sexual innuendo's at the dinner table with the cousins when we were shaving veggies for the funeral food. Everyone was missing gma and still could share a laughter with each other. it was a moment that my whole family gathered and I'm glad everyone met Vinh. Then there's Christmas. =D He open gifts at my house and for the first time ate Anh Hung's boiled Crawfish and really like it. He tricked me when I went to open my gift. I come to find that I was opening his gift that I got for him. He then gave me my real present in the wrapper I thought I wrapped for him. He just wanted me to open more boxes. And we both tricked Adrian to thinking I got Vinh the Naruto game he really wanted. Vinh's name was on the box but Vinh told Adrian to open it. And Adrian saw in surprise that it was the game he wanted and was kinda disappointed when he thought I got it for Vinh. Vinh told him that he didn't want it and that Adrian could have it. LOL which made it even cooler. But I really got it for Adrian, so I told him later on what we were trying to do. Adrian and his mom thought it was funny! And I had to work that night to I went took a nap and he watched football with my family.

There's so much more stuff when it's just me and him. Or when we chill with Tien and my sisters. We go out to eat like almost every weekend when we're free. Hooters, Coffee, Sushi, Wal-mart trips, and what nots. I love it when he drives me to places I need to go so that I won't be tired. Adn going to Sunday Mass together after pulling a 12hr shift and gotta go back again that night. And when I'm really tired, I would just go to his house and sleep in with him. When we both work, we'd sleep in til 2 or 3 in the afternoon, and his mom would cook for to eat when we wake up. I feel so spoiled >.< His parents are so nice. They keep trying to feed me!!! Or when Vinh's off and I'm at work, she would pack lunch for me and Vinh would go drop it off for me. =) I got them them a tupperware set for Christmas because I stole all theirs from all the time she made me food. I told them that Vinh could use it too and that she can put away leftovers for me when I come over to eat.

I finally went to Celebration in the Oaks for the first time and he took me to Fulton St. too and Rock-n-Sake afterwards. It was a weekend I finally had off and he had off from work. Even though we were both dead tired, we still had so much fun. He knew how imprtant it means to me to go to Celebration in the Oaks with someone special. I been saving the experience for someone worthwhile and I guess it was meant to be that we had this chance. He made it even more special and took me Fulton St. too and my camera battery died, so we took phone pics. He's the sweetest and knows how to spoil me. For New Years, He took me to Port of NOLA to watch fireworks and have our New Year's Kiss. It was perfect, even though it was very cold, he's naturally very warm and kept me close the whole time under his arms and coat. Which I got for him for Christmas along with a belt. Which he really liked and wears it often. I also wore the coat he got me that night too. He's made so many of my dreams come true when it comes to Love. He's the best boyfriend ever! We went to so many weddings during the holidays and we had so much fun getting dressed up and meeting our friends. He met the Hannan girls and Convent Girls. As for me, I met all his boys and his boy's girlfriends. We all became quick friends. That night when we went to rock-n-sake, we bumped into Fannie people and he met them too.

What more can I say? I'm missing so many small things here and there. Like talking and texting on the phone.. at work or not. When he clips my finger or toe nails cuz it pokes him. Driving around town running errands like post office, bank, Sam's or Walmart. Playing facebook games like poker or farmtown. When he peeled my lobster for me to eat. Hanging out with Tien. Chilling at my house waits for me to get haircut. Do laundry. Go shopping in Gulport or Baton Rouge/Gonzales. We went to Biloxi and ate IP buffet just because. He strolled around his old neighborhood and showed me all the houses he loved in cuz his parents moved around the neighborhood alot!! that was funny. Zacks frozen yorgurt!! =) washing my car, plugging my tires and thao-vi's, watching movies. Oh my god, Helping me Cook!! LOL that will be another post. so many, many things.... and the many I Love You's in between.

Living Dead

Today is All Souls Day. What a perfect day to write what I need to write today. My parents care about the world and how they are percieved by the world so much that they don't care what misery they put their children through becuase of their faces.
and this it true because of what happned to my older sister on her wedding day. they left her alone at her reception on her wedding day to serve the guests that weren't able to go to the reception and instead my parents stayed home to arranged a meal for those guests instead of sharing that special day with Hoa.
I can't live my life how I want to because of their faces. they would dis-own me before I could embarass them and I can't do anything to jeopordize that image of a perfect family. they wanted to take my life away, taking my car away and telling me to tell Vinh to drive me to places and move out and live with him. They almost killed me tonight. I was literall thinking of jumping off a bridge to relieve myself of being alive in misery as much as I am dead. I felt life-less and didn"t mind the slaps and hit and being literally stamped on by my parents. I have two big knots on my head to prove it. I wished they would have achieved murdering their own daughter before I could ruin their reputation. What's the point in living when I'm living not for myself but for my parents. I've been doing everything they want me to do all my life. and once I start to live my own life they crush it. I really need to get out of here... before I die. Maybe I'm already dead. Not literally dead, but my inner-self, who I truly am will die. I would be living, but not to my fullest because now i have to restraint my life before I embarass my parents. They think I'm sleeping over at vinh's too much and might end up pregnant. All i thought of it was convienient and sweet of him to have me over to rest up. I don't want to get into a car accident because i was falling alseep behind the wheel. I didn't think of it much, but my parents are fucking crazy. I hate their pride, it's killing our relationship. No more, I say. who gives a fuck, right? I never will say anything about anything in this house anymore. Well, i really didn't want to say anything at all tonight and just take the licks. i'm pretty good at that... taking hurtful things. enduring the pain. I really think that my parents wouldn't blink if i was preganant and had an abortion to keep from embarasing them. They'd rather lose a grandchild than have their reputation tainted. Fuck it, bring it on bitch, bring it on.... Life's a bitch... live it up or take it down.
