Dispatches from a Chinese-American living in the Motherland.
How did you keep your composure???
Oh my god, you have to tell her what a disasterous name she picked!
This makes Trig Paxton Van Palin (So named "because isn't it cool that it rhymes with Van Halen??") sound like a solid, worthy name!
tell her she has a long career ahead of her as a future chinese hip-hop star
are you sure you didn't make that up? is it really simple ho? really? poor, simple ho. not, of course, "poor, simple, ho."
she chose simple b/c it sounds like her chinese name. i had no idea her last name was "ho" until she turned in her homework. guess i'll have to tell her at some point.
Do they put the family name first? That would make her Ho Simple. I guess that's not much better, is it?Terri
