I have a great friend. A great friend who is:
     - the reason I have a passing grade for the past 3 years in Chinese.  Seriously.  Once upon a time, I used to make up and draw my own characters on the dictation tests. I couldn't remember those characters at all! And later that year I won "most improved"! It wasn't me, it was her support and patience!
    - the only person in her graduation to pass the interpretation exams.  Sometimes, she would ask me to explain a word she needed to know and I wasn't even sure what they meant! it was too intensely economical add/or political and I couldn't give a straight definition! Smart kid, my Rainbow.
    - her university's outstanding graduate! That's what she was titled for her graduating ceremony! I think it would be like our "valedictorian"! She gives a 7 minute speech this Thursday and I couldn't be happier! I am so proud.

BUT even better she is a cook.  A DAMN good Chinese cook with a kind heart.  When mentioning I loved Wang Wang rice cakes last March, she brought me in a huge bag, wider than my waist! I told her I loved cucumbers biased in soy sauce and this Saturday she remembered! A month later! She made me some!  So kind! They were better than any I have had before, this chick is multi-talented.  I am lucky to have such a good friend.
