An unhappy night Assigning and sharing daily chores with my roommate is no panic. I am organized, but she is kind of sloppy. Even though we make a list of who is charge of which part of the chores, she either forgets to do it or does it carelessly. I am usually unhappy with that.

When my parents left, I would sit on a chair at the front door, and saw their car drove away. Mostly, I would weep alone after they went, and tried to not bother anyone. When my grandma finished our talk, I felt a strong sense of mourn from my deep inside, then, I found out, those memories might not be lost; instead, it was buried in my mind, where I don't want to touch anymore.
