| | At the 07/08 new year's eve, I went to the countdown party/ thanksgiving service at my parents' church. One part of the service had people going up to say what they're thankful to God for in 2007. My parents and I went up (my sis wasn't feeling well, so she stayed home), too. My parents said some things (in Mandarin), and then I spoke some (first in English, since I'm more proficient there than in Mandarin, then translated to Mandarin so my parents could understand).
On Friday, my mom called (as she often would). She said,
"A lot of people have been asking if you've gone back to London. They also said, "Your daughter's English is so good/ refined!"
I told them, "Oh, really? I didn't know that! This kind of thing, you guys would have to let me know in order for me to know, since you know the language and I don't."
So I felt very happy and very proud, because people said that my daughter's English is very good. I thank God for that."
