A Condo on a Dead End

I am from a condo on a dead end with very noisy upstairs Neighbors

Where construction workers always do construction on the road

Never getting peace and quiet.

I am from One day having my own business in California

To hopefully having a different president 

I am from Delicious Chinese treats like chewy mochies and cold ice cream with toppings on top which Makes me feel cold inside

To savory warm and fresh dumplings on a big white plate

To going to a fresh farmers market in Noe Valley and getting warm rolled up chicken tacos with Tomatoes, lettuce, and cheese

I am from Going to Orange County every Christmas to celebrate with my ginormous family

To going to Taiwan to visit my grandparents

I am from getting home and plopping down on the couch even though my mom says it’s annoying

To winning the basketball championships and taking home a shiny metal

I am from every Chinese new year getting a red envelope with money in it

I am from staying inside a day waiting for the coronavirus to be over

To going on more walks then normal everyday

I am from wishing I could hangout with my friends on the weekends

I am from being on the computer way more than I used to

To also watching TV when i’m bored

I am from not going out to eat breakfast with my family 

I am from being grateful for my big house

I am from wishing I had a dog to go on MEANINGFUL walks

I am from getting to annoying my sister because we are home

I am from my dad cooking the best food ever for dinner

I am from mom cooking up the leftover dinner that my dad made for breakfast

This is where I’m from
