My Son is a Fob...

One of Ryan's favorite activities is dancing to music. Until recently, he's mostly listened to kiddie songs and loves "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star." But, a couple weeks ago, we introduced him to some Chinese pop stars, like Guang Liang and Jay Chou. So now, he insists on listening to songs like "Di Yi Ci", a.k.a. the "The First Time", which is a sappy love ballad with an appropriately vomit inducing music video., or "Ting Mama De Hua", a.k.a. "Listen to Your Mother", which believe it or not is a rap song.

For those of you who either want to mock me and my son or who are curious what Chinese "gangsta" rap sounds like, you can easily find these videos on here or here.

Hopefully, he picks up some other fobbish tendencies, like studying really hard and becoming a doctor.

So who's fault is this? Let me see... I was born in Kansas and went to high school with 2 other Chinese people. Frances lived in Taiwan until she was 8 and grew up in Arcadia, California. Next question please.

Tong Hua - Guang Liang is a good song too.

Ryan picking up the other kids bucket/shovel while at central park was pretty hilarious. But, he did redeem himself by attempting to throw a bouncy ball back to another kid who dropped it.
