| It's hard to tell my parents that Family Guy, computer games, and candies aren't just for kids.
Movie It's hard to tell them to do something without leading them - they are old school. My sister leads by example, I follow her sometimes to just let my parents experience certain things. She went out to watch this with her friends, and my parents mentioned it. Since they will never go just them together - I said I'd go. So we watched:
A rip of Day After Tomorrow with Korean humor. Funny I was there every summer while I lived at Busan. Actually remember seeing a few tall buildings back then.
Coffee It's hard to tell them to try new things. So you just do it. My parents have been drinking diluted Maxwell's and Dunkin for most of their lives. I told them to try some other brands - just for the sake of trying.
I picked out the classic Eight O'Clock coffee. I can't fully appreciate the flavor yet, because we're out of coffee filters and my mom uses paper towels - but it definitely tastes crisper than most other coffee, or maybe it's too dilute cuz of the paper towel. Summer Look-back Chicago trip was one of the first trips I felt READY for. I think I've fudged all my trips prior to this or went along with my dad's, "Can you book a hotel for tomorrow? We're going to ____. Here's my credit card number." I think I spent a good 2 days trying to plan an itinerary.
Bahai temple in Evanston, IL. Northwestern library. Grace was amazed to find an escalator in a library.
Museum of Science and Industry
Millenium Park.
Grace's Yale surprise Grace got into Yale! What a hectic few weeks for her. Here's her room.
Drinks...I told myself I'd make better use of myself at home. | | |
| Predetermination + Free will in a nutshell. POKER: No matter what you do, the reality is, the next few unturned cards, the flop, the turn card, and the river, are already determined. We might have an inkling - based on who has folded and are playing, but nothing concrete. To us, the cards' identities are hidden until it's turned - the God's all knowing power and the perception of human free will CAN coexist. 2-7 Offsuit can be good with God on your side. Have hope.  | | |
