@ 30. mom is now aggressively asking about marriage. "stop being everybody's groomsman cuz you'll never get married...that's what they say...i don't know. just don't do it".
apparently it's not just me. papa lee sat the girls down and said "一個人要有事業。。。可是家庭也很重要。。。“
OTHER people have always been keenly interested in my social life. in my dating life. i make my life a public drama, a comedic shared experience and i do enough stuff that bewilders the stable. couples love talking about my single life. and now that my mom has taken an active role as to setting me up and pushing me to get married, its become a very public conversation when i go to dinner with my moms friends.
@ dinner. the word 伯母 was used. and then a picture of a daughter was passed around the table. at which point my mom asked to keep the picture and the mom wrote her name and number on the back of the 5 year ago "laser background" foto. she's in columbia med school and scored a 1600 on her sat. i got into yale and now i live in ny and love to cook. yes. we're not perfect for each other. the mom seemed pretty excited cuz she immediately took pictures "我幫你拍照“ and obviously sent it to her daughter real time. and she definitely called her daughter at the dinner table since the jawbone went into her ear as soon as i passed over my business card.
so now i think im going to be taking her out. a miss peggy. cuz even if its not a date. it's that i have to be nice and take care of a fellow taiwanese person who is foreign to nyc.
