chinese history buff


while i was at the museum looking at a chinese porcelain exhibit the other day, and wondering which dynasty came first, i suddenly was hit with a memory of my dad who would have given me the history of china in one afternoon. i remember he always liked to talk about chinese history to me, except sometimes i didn't always pay attention. he definitely would have been able to tell me which dynasty was first. i really wish he was still around so i ask him questions about chinese history and he would be so happy to talk to me about it...

Even dadi has a technical background, but he knows a lot about history. He loves to share this knowledge with all especially family members such as you and momi. He could present the history with an interesting story, e.g. He told me the Chinese story about fired buffalo attacked castle, he could even used modern materials such as toasts to attract listener's attention.
When you were little you love to ask us to read or tell story for you. But Momi was so busy in day time and by the bed reading story book, Momi was always the first one fell asleep. (So you knew you have to read books yourself, that could be why your English impressed your elementary school teacher/principal so much and they gave you an excellent grade in the first semester that they insisted not to do before.) Anyways, that time I think father told you lots of stories to make up momi's insufficient reading right?
Love, Momi
