Raising Children to Weather the Storm
People would sometimes ask me if I’m part Asian. I’ll usually respond by saying, “Somewhere down the line.” My slanted eyes are a dead giveaway. I used to feel self conscious about them. Whenever I laughed they’d become more pronounced. There was the occasional annoying class clown who would slant his eyes by using his…
We were on the hunt for fireworks close to home for the 4th of July holiday weekend, but were out of luck. It seems like there’ve been a lot of budget cuts in some areas. We’ll have to wait until next weekend to check out a display. In the meantime, we made the best of…

I’ve spend the last few days working ahead to avoid falling behind this semester. It was pretty tough working double duty, but I got though it just fine. The…
I love my job. Even though things get a bit crazy during severe weather coverage, I get excited. When boss lady asks me to come in a bit early for cut-ins, I’m happy to oblige. Forecasting the weather can get tricky. It’s important to be on top of your game at all times. People usually…
