I am retired and at home all the time, so the virus hasn’t made any difference in my life, except for being more connected to my family. I have six sisters, and they all want to do group things on line, we have been doing hour sessions every few days. NYC must be so different. I watch you and your friends getting takeout, and you speaking perfect Chinese, and related dialects. LOVE IT! The looks on the faces when you speak makes me laugh! You make their day! Wish I could go to China and submerse myself in the culture for a year or two like you did. Did you know all the Americans that you take with you to eat from school or does the language bring you together? I could keep this up all day, but would bore you to tears! So long!
