Yippie I got a letter from Jeri today and I couldn't be more happy. She wished me congratulations since I'll be planning on going to the temple soon. Well I'm taking the temple classes and I hope to go soon and experience the nice spiritual things in the Temple. I got an updated mailing address for Henry's new area on his mission in Honduras. She goes on with he annoyance with my biological father and his bull crap ways. It goes on and on with that guy. A new family and a new life, not taking responsibility. I'm glad I don't have to deal with him anymore. A New chapter for me and I don't care about him. But when it comes to my baby sister Jeri and her needs for school and stuff. Thats when I'm not a nice person. I wish I had tons of money to support my baby sister and my mom. This sucks. Sorry baby girl, I'm broke and I'm not smart. Lord please help me and my family. PLEASE!!!! Anyways, Jeri express to me how she really wants to see snow so bad. Even dreaming about it. Poor sister of mine. You will one day, just hang in there!! I love you and I pray for your safety and well being. Good luck in school baby girl. Talk to you laters!! Thanks for the letter!!
He sent me a photo of Kolina his daughter and a recent photo of him. She looks like my cousin that is half filipino half samoan. So adorable. Honestly he looks like his dad, like spot on like my mom's brother. You can't deny that genes! He didn't hear anything about his daughter or if she is going to visit him. That sucks a lot. My poor cousin. I would feel really sad if I couldn't see my daughter that I miss. I hope something will happen soon. He asked if I was planning on visiting home and come for Jerica's graduation in 2007. As for right now I am going to try to go for her graduation because she's my baby sister and I want to support her even if I live so far away. He's excited to meet with the family when he gets out, and I hope it will be a pleasant one. I told him in my letter that don't expect too much from his dad's family because they are judgmental and drama. But he doesn't have to worry about Me, Mom, Dad, Nita, Jeri cause we are cool and drama free. Well he already knew that. Other than that, just the same things he dose every day, he said nothing new but just trying to get by. That's it with his letter to me this week. Until next time...
Another informative letter from my good ole funny cousin of mine. This time he's asking more probing questions about Mika. I don't mind it cause I've gotten to know him more through his letters and from my mom. I told him about my husband being in a band and I would sometimes go traveling with him. And of course my buff bad guy cousin had to tell me to tell Mika that he would put him in check if he finds out that I'm not being treated good. I got to give him some respect on that part of being family and being worried about his young cousin, me. Kalae shared with me in his letter what he usually would do on the daily. Playing card games or chess, play hand ball, lift weights with his home boys, watch the airplanes fly by since he's near the airport and sit in his cell staring at the walls. It's very depressing and annoying. Every letter he would write to me he would mention how he wish he was out of there and being free. I pray after these next 2 1/2 years goes by fast so that he can be free from his mistakes. He also read a few books to pass the time like Four blinds mice, 1st to Die, 2nd Chance and Black Friday, Monster and other books they have. I'm glad that they can listen to some local music while hanging out around the cell or eating areas. On the weekends they get to watch movies and thats one of his favorite time because it makes him feel like he's not in prison for a moment. He jokes about him turning into a Haole (White Person) because he's hasn't been going out as much and he's turning fair. heheh I know the feeling of loosing your nature tan because being indoors majority of the time. Well he ended his letter to read a good book. Okay dokie! Until next time...
It's been pretty interesting traveling with Mika's family in a van bunched with so many bodies. Let's just say, when you're ghetto you will do whatever it takes to travel to where you need to. I had a good time visiting places where my husband grew up and meeting family friends too. We even went to the Mall of America and had a blast seeing the gazillion stores and floors. But I really enjoy the them park inside the mall. A full size roller coster and fun rides that you can go on non-stop. As you can see my face I wasn't a fan of rides. Really I don't like going on any free fall rides. Not one bit! But I went on cause Mika wanted to go on but not by himself. You can never know a person until you do things with them that you don't like....and I just experience it with Mulek, I mean Mika. Sorry my family calls him that, cause my mom calls all of us by our middle name. heheheh Anyways, Minnesota is an interesting place, kind of reminds me of Chicago but less dirty looking. Well I would not want to live there in the winter. I like the winter time but not the winter like Minnesota. Deep in snow, below freezing temperatures and living in the country side. No thanks! I like living in the City or near civilization. Thanks hun for taking on your childhood journey it was fun!
He finally got my letter which I was hoping that he got it. He was trying to be funny when he said who was writing to him. I thought to myself when I read that part of his letter, fool who else is going to write to you?!? hehehe But he was joking with me as always. He going to send me another one of his drawings. Which I'm very excited for. Now in this letter he wants me to find him a pen pal. Ugh come on cuz, I'm so anti social right now and I can't help you in that area! Again, i'll pray for you in that department. He lifting weights so that he can be buff and strong looking and not look like his Dad!?! hahaahhahahaah that was sooooooo funny I couldn't stop laughing. You got jokes cuz!! Anyways, got to go now. Until next time...
Wow! He just got out of the shu hoe that he had to stay in a more tight cell for about 1 1/2 weeks. I guess he screwed up on something. Now he loss his job that he was making 12 cent and hour. How sucky is that. Poor thing, i wish him the best of luck. He finally talked to my mom this past week and she was worried about him because she would always get a call from him every week. But now that he's out of the hoe he called to let her know he was ok. I know that my mom gave him an ear full for worrying her. In his letter he asked if Mika is treating me ok. It made me smirk for a moment because I know if he hears anything negative about Mika from my family, he would do something. Well thats what he said. Since he thinks he's the bad cousin in the family. I've told him that there are more worst cousins in our family that he hast met yet. Kalae got a new cell mate and new room to stay until the next change. He said that this room mate is cool and not drama. That's nice to know. Other than that things are ok, he seems worried about me and my well being. I'm glad to know that I have another over protective cousin in my life. i wished I got this letter sooner than later. Well until next time...
