Asian pears, eye diseases, etc

   Random update!  I am still sick with the flu (or whatever it is).  Funny thing is (or not), everyone else around me seems to be sick with the same symptoms.  When I got sick two days prior to returning to Vancouver, I thought I had malaria or something =_= 
   Currently trying this steamed pear concoction that I saw on a Korean reality show "We Got Married."  Searched around the interwebs for the recipe and stumbled upon this one.
Made one earlier in the week and hand-delivered it to boyfriend's workplace (I got him sick, too...) and he claimed that it was very soothing, and that he ate all the ginger.  I'm currently going through my own right now... and it's too spicy o_o


   Anyway, popped on the EOS Adult grey contacts that I recently bought online.  The first thing I noticed was that the left one was noticeably whiter [?] than the right one.  Did I get defective ones?  Hmm...
In natural lighting, it looks like my left eye has some disease.  It also looks more purple or blue than grey.  I find that to balance this icy color, it's best to apply dark liner around the eyes, otherwise the lightness of the color doesn't go well against my skin tone.  I don't know, what do you think?

I believe that effective and sincere attempt at communication is what holds family members together.  You cannot expect your family to just "work" and get along if you have not invested in any time or effort.  Living through this century, where almost every household owns at least a computer with working internet/video game console, it is much more difficult to push yourself off these machines to personally connect with people, compared to when these machines were not around.  I find it a little bit depressing that people would game online for hours and hours, rather than fulfilling that promised date with a friend or sibling.  I'm not saying gaming is bad, however, it shouldn't be the reason behind broken promises and angry lashes against, say, an innocent sister who just asked if you wanted ice cream.  You know what I'm talking about, right?

Har har. thank goodness I'm not in English classes anymore.  My writing cannot possibly get any worse...? ;)
