firework

Didnt see a single firework this year and quite frankly thats ok with me.
How did the explosions get to be associated with Independence? Wouldnt something else be more fitting. Anyways I am really looking forward to seeing my family and and getting to play on the beach and swim in the ocean. Time with people who are not your family is really hard there is so many things that are not reasonable from my standpoint yet as a guest I am unable to say anything about it. At any rate I will be content to sleep on the floor of a house that is filled with strangeness that I know. Really what I want most is to go back to beijing and sleep in my own house where I neednt deal with anyone. It is bliss to be on my own terms. soon.
