Sister, damn I really miss ya

so I've come to realize, how hard it is to keep up with this blogging thing and I be having some good ideas for blogs but I'm never around a computer when this ideas strike. This past week has honestly the best week of my life. I think I've come far in experiencing different types of things; college, community work, traveling, protests, and whole crap more. This past week, I spend it at SASC-SI and one of the most important people in my life decided to let up and go with me: my sister.

my sister and I have quite a difficult relationship. Growing up, I was asshole to her never letting her do anything and expecting way too much from her. Going to college, I finally realized how much she meant to me and how I should be there for her. We've started going out together to movies, we go out for dinners together and I play volleyball with her at her CRC class. This past week, we went to fusion night, the banquet, reflection night and the park outing for SASC. Miss Anna Ballin Nguyen took me and my sister out to a movie, the Frida Kahlo art exhibit and the gay pride parade. All of which was an amazing time and most importantly my sister was experiencing and learning new things with me at her side.

My sister is an amazing young womyn and she growing up to be a strong and smart individual. For the longest time, I didn't see that in her because I didn't allow myself to all of her potential, I only focused on her shortcomings and my expectations. She loves turtles (its like her batman), she likes yellow, she may want to be a math teacher, she has hundreds of chuck taylors, she starting to like fish tacos like I do and she speaks better Vietnamese than I do and she'll remind you all the time.

Who would of thought a week with my sister, would be the best thing about my summer! We got matching Kanye glasses and custom made writstbands that say: Bro Heart Sis in both our favorite colors: Black and Yellow!
