Intro

I choose to write to share with family and friends and myself by putting my words onto paper (or digitally online). I can look back when I am older at the memories and be able to still share it with my loved ones. I choose to write and blog knowing I do not want to repeat my past mistake from being involved in the hurricane of 2005 and choosing not to bring my beloved items. I lost a lot of pictures and belongings as a child during the storm and I know I can not change back time to record every favorite memory I had or carry all the albums of photos and videos of my family and my twin. Creating this blog allows me to feel safe and know I can always have a backup so I will never forget and loose a precious memory.

14 Facts About Me!

14 FACTS About Me!
You learn something new everyday.

1) For those who don't know, I have a twin sister (Martha). I am older by 3 minutes. We were taken out early, because my mom could not handle the weight. So we were both each 4 lbs, born a month or a few months early.
2) I was born in Gulfport, Mississippi. My house was 2 minutes away from the beach, along the gulf coast. I lived in Mississippi for 10 years, about half my life now.
3) Growing up, my family owned a store, named "Lucky Food Market". So in elementary, I was known as the girl who owned the family store or as a the only Asian twins in school.
4) I moved to Texas, because of hurricane Katrina in 2005. The hurricane destroyed my home, store, and my school. So my dad decided it was best to move to avoid another hurricane by the coast.
5) When I am upset, stressed, sad or whatever, I always think of me being at the beach just sitting there, staring out into the never ending water and the sunset. My most favorite childhood memory would always be there. It's the best memory that relaxes me.
6) I LOVE dressing up!! I love wearing dresses and heels. Especially for wedding occasions.
7) I believe my best feature is my lips. I get my full lips from my mommy♥
8 ) I always smell my blankets , pillows, and my stuffed koala before I sleep. Something about my natural scent soothes me.
9) I have an older brother, who is about to be 30 years old this November. His name is Andrew smile emoticon
10) I like to be fit. I enjoy competitive swimming at my school. Swimming was one of the few things I looked forward to going to school. When I am not running, I enjoy recreational running.
11) I have a beauty mark by my nose that is fairly faint (or some people may call it a mole).
12) I enjoy math. The subject itself is challenging and I enjoy conquering them and becoming an engineer sounds perfect to me. I like taking on challenges no matter if you fail or pass, you always learn from it, like math!
13) My Vietnamese name is Thy, which is pronounced just the letter "T". (my sister's Vietnamese name is Vy, so most adults just call us TV getting our attention. lol"
14) As a little kid, me and my sister were very troublesome!!! When we were around 5-6 we got our hair cut at a hair salon in New Orleans, we hated the women there (I don't know why) and we would get their red lipstick on display and write all over their windows with lipstick and also I´m sure we did worse everywhere else we went. (Like picking out someone´s contacts and tearing them up not knowing what they even were or writing in permanent marker across my cousin's phone)
