South Beauty

When I was browsing the gossips online, I found a high-end Chinese restaurant chain "South Beauty". Their website includes menu, which is great. Because I can use it to tell people about some Chinese food.

Parents Visiting Seattle

Parents came last Friday and will stay for a month. A couple days before, I talked to a couple friends whose parents had visited. All of them said that their parents got bored within a week. It seems like I have to find ways to keep my parents entertain.

First day when my parents arrived, my mother commented my apartment was too small for three people. I didn't want to tell her how much I pay for my rent. My father defended me that my place was as big as our first apartment in Zhongshan.

Second day, my parents and I visited Space Needle. It was my first time as well. We also went to Kerry Park. Then had a late lunch in Chinatown.

Third day, we went to Best Buy at Northgate. My parents already started to think about presents for relatives.

Fourth day, I took my parents to the UW campus. They were excited to see the library in person, as they had seen it online all the time.

Today, my parents met my advisor. My mother felt she couldn't express herself due to her lack of English capability.

My parents walked to my office from home themselves this afternoon. I was a bit relief. However, I still concern if they can explore the neighborhoods on their own. I suggest my parents to go to the Gasworks Park themselves tomorrow. Let's see what happen.
