Hello?
heyyyyyy lucky arent we?
OK, so you saw all those last messages?
yeah I did I saw all of them
Argh. Technology is the end of me.
no worries man it happens to the best of us
Have you ever read the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy?
yeah I've seen it when I was younger but I did not understand the movie because I was super young
Yeah. It's one of those things you have to be in a certain mind set. A really nerd one. Or a crazy one It's an option our final Lit project
huhhh why is that movie/book so talked about?
I think it's because there's a lot of science buffs and people that just like that kind of genre. I've read some books in that area and they are...just weird but still pretty great Also, Bilbo Baggins is in the movie so that might be a reason Also, (I've never read the book) but I think it does a really a good job of being weird.
do you like literature?
Yep. I'm majoring in English Or...will be
will be haha thats awesome good for you man! You know I love reading but I hate it because I have to read the book in one sitting or else for me its hard to pick up the book again so I can't dedicate that kind of time anymore. Kind of sad really but I started to listen to eBooks and thats been really good. The last book I read was ready player one
Mrgh. I haven't read that yet! It's on my list, but my list is getting ridiculously long. Yes, audio books are good.
you have to read that BOOK Im a total nerd and that book was one of the most ultimate books for nerds
Mrgh, I know! Too many books. I borrowed a book from a friend and at the beginning at the end of last year and I've read about 10 pages of it. I get distracted by other books.
oh my hahaha
It's bad. And sad.
lets switch gears then. What is the craziest thing youve ever done?
...what defines crazy? In what situation?
hey ill be right back I need to move my car or ill get towed it will be quick
Good job
done hahahaa
Where were you parked that it was going to be towed?
so crazy can be anything like life or death situation, you got pranked or did a prank etc it was under a apartment stall that I wasn't supposed to park at but it was empty last night and there was no spots
Good job Crazy...uh
yeah i totally forgot. I was like please let my car be there yeah crazy
I don't think I've been in a life or death situation... I'm drawing a blank I licked the bottom of my friend's shoe
haha no worries ewwww dude hahah thats awesome was that a dare or something?
...yes Also. Not assuming what you're assuming, but I'm a girl.
ohhh im sorry so sorry
Haha. No problem. Guess my electronic conversations sound like a guy's...not sure if that's something to be proud of.
no not really I think I just assume most people are guys on here for some reason unless their name is like Megan or Anna or something
True. Similar thought process.
heres a question for you what is the best room in your house and why?
The kitchen. It always smells good and we have a lot of good family times in there
that is a good one
You?
I think mine is the same. The kitchen just brings the people togther and food and desserts are made
What's your favorite dessert?
a classic chocolate chip cookies you? you still there my girllllllllllll?
Yes. Did you answer that question? If you didn't I can't see it. Tech problems. Again
oh sucky well I can see your chats now your fave dessert is?
cream cheese cake all the way
cream cheese cake or just cheese cake? whats the difference?
Is there a difference? I've heard people use both names to describe the same thing.
oh Ive never heard it being called cream cheese cake but that makes sense hahaha do you like topings on your cake? berries or anything like that
Depends. I'll eat anything, I'm not really picky. But I think if it was my choice I'd just go plain.
good choice. I like strawberries and blue berries what is the silliest fear that you have?
Uh...pointy fences.
what really? that is silly how did you develop that fear?
An overactive imagination. Whenever I see one I think about what would happen if someone jumped over it, and then got caught on it.
that happened to my brother when he was chasing a cat. His pants got caught and he flipped down the fence and ripped his head open
Well. That's unfortunate. See? Legit fear. Who's cat? How ripped open?
it was a stray cat him and his friends were chasing because they want to pet it or capture it or someting. His head had a nice big gash and had to get 14 stitches. He hit a nice big rock  on the way down
Cats. Can't trust them. Ouch, 14? How old was he?
he was 14 hahaha. We thought it was really funny because it was the same number of his stitches
Haha that's great. I don't think I've had stitches, but I've had staples before. Wait, what's your silly fear?
spiders
....That's not exactly a silly fear.
ok let me think
But all spiders? Or just the big hairy ones?
I have a fear of when I am sitting at church and have my lefts under the pew and imagine myself having the pew over my leg break and all the weight of the family sitting on the pew crushing  my legs weird huh? I still do it though because I like to stretch my legs out
Yep, that's weird enough. Are you a tall person then?
I am 6 feet
Holy guac! Here come the cliche question: do you play basketball? Yeah, I wouldn't have that fear. Shortness
hahaha no idont play basketball like in a team. I like to play for fun though. I played soccer in highschool and now I rock climb most of the time as far as a physcial hobby goes
Is that a tall person thing? Really horrible assumption, but my brother-in-law rock climbs too and is 6 ft +
uhhh to be honest anyone can rock climb some of the best rock climbers are under 5 foo 10. and one of the best female climber is like 5 foot 4 i started to rock climb because I was getting sick of playing video games all the time as a hobby and I knew that I needed to change that in order to be more successful in lif life
That's good to know. Yay shortness. Would that be because they have less weight to carry? Hm. Good to know you can self-motivate yourself beyond the console-bagel life
hahaha console bagel life. you are funny
Thank you. I try
I think one reason why is yes you are smaller so less weight to carry. but I thin kalso that shoulder people are also more flexible sometimes
Hm. That makes sense. Wish it was true across the board.
right?
What job would you be terrible at?
i would be terrible atttt playing spors
Haha. No coordination? Stamina? Motivation?
water sport i mean! sorry for the late repl reply.. man i suck at typing I think I would be bad at being a police pofficer or any job that has to confront people. I am bad at confronting or accusing people
I'm going to agree with you: you suck at typing. Are you on a phone or a laptop? Yeah, I used to think being a police officer would be cool and I could be one those cool ones and take out a gang all by myself. But I don't think I could intentionally hurt someone. Or I'd feel really bad afterwards
yeah totally. I served in Oakland California for my mission and Oakland is one of the worst rated cities for homicide and crime. They also have not enough officers to do all so when you call 911 to report that there is a dead body they will just be like "ok thank you for the information we will pick up the body" and they won't really investigate it at all unless its worth the case and the man power. Its really sad that crime is so over run there that police has to pick and choose what cases to take sorry that was really long but it really made me sad when I saw that in my mission
Wow. That is sad....did you actually find a dead body? How were the people you taught? NO WAIT
yeah i did
Did you say Oakland, CA
yes Oakland CA why?
Were you ever in Hayward?
I was down there when I taught some of the cambodian members! but never with other wards
That's where my dad is from!
you mean Hayweird? oh cool that is awesome! such a small world do you guys go back often to visit the Bay area?
Yep! Every summer. My grandparents aren't members though.
oh thats nice that you go back. Do you have a trip planned out soon? is your dad a convert to the church?
Yep
thats so cool! I have a friend from Fremont that his parents are both converts they were like crazy hippies before converting hahahaha
That is also cool! My mom says that if she wasn't convert, she would've been a hippie
hahaha is she also from the Bay area?
Not really. She was kind of everywhere. Her dad was in the Navy so they moved around a lot.
oh yeah military families seem like its kind of hard. I feel like I would not enjoy it that much even though I like to go to new places
Yeah. She went to a different high school for each of the four years
did she hate it?
Yeah. She was a real wallflower and being the only Asian family in those schools was pretty rough.
wait I think we talked about this. I am korean and you are chinese???
...I don't think we've talked about this. Yes Chinese/Thai. You're a six foot Korean? Haha, that's great.
hahaha yeppp im pretty tall somehow hahaha chinese and Thai thats awesome! thats a cool mix.
I mean, if you go back far enough on my mom's line, she's literally 80% chinese, but she was born in Thailand so we just say Thai
swatti kaapp (that is my best romanized hello in thai lol)
Haha, good effort. Romanzing Thai is HARD.  Where'd you pick it up?
I picked it up in Oakland. I served as a cambodian speaking missionary so I ran in to a lot of Thai people too
That's so cool! Huh, Cambodian Speaking in CA. Was it a pretty large community?
yes there is a ton. have you heard about the khmer rouge?
Yes
so when that happened the united states has pulled out a ton of cambodians from the war and put them in Oakland, Minnesota, and Boston area and also Long Beach CA
Hm, I see. That's rough. How were the people you met?
lovely. I love the cambodians! they are so chill. They are like islanders but also asian
...nice description. What was learning the language like?
it was tough because cambodian has the most alphabets in the world. Plus I ddint have a trainer so I had to really start from ground 0. what also sucked as far as learning the language goes was that most people spoke english unless they were really old so I mostly spoke english but I studies everyday
No trainer? That's rough. How long were in the MTC. Ugh, tell me about it. One of my Personal Progress projects was learning basic Thai and there are so many letters! Half of them aren't even used! And the other half are repeats! Learning a language is good for your brain
Yeah i didnt have a trainer. I was in the MTC for 9 weeks. That was my basic training. Yeah Thai also has tones and Cambodian does not so I lucked out on that haha
9 weeks? That's really rough. Ugh, tones. My mom was teaching me and I could barely hear the difference
hahahaha I bet you will be good at learning languages you know the MTC was a blast for me you really get close to the other missionaries that are going to the same mission as you
I hope I'm good at languages. I've really only taken Spanish but I want to learn so many others. How many missionaries went out with you?
uhhh so it was just me and my companion that wen to oakland. and we were the first missionaries that spoke cambodian in like 16 years or something the rest went to cambodian and there were like 16
Wow. Was the mission new? Any sister missionaries go to Cambodia? Oh dear. I can't see anything anymore. Again.
oh wow just refresh and we probably will get pair again
