for those of you do who do not know, i refer to my family as the wang clan. the wang clan members are mom & dad aka mnd, elder sister annie or ani, younger sister cat or catmeee rather, and of course there is my youngest and only brother jack or j.wa (my new nickname for him). these five people are my number one, they love me unconditionally and accept me for who i am inside and what i look like outside. i can always count on them for support even when it feels the whole world is against me, i often found guidance from them at times when i am in complete lost of for directions. i am proud of my roots and upbringing. i am so lucky to have such selfless parents and free-spirited siblings. each one of my siblings inspires me in a different way and my parents are just the greatest role models one can ask for. they are a true reflection of who i am. all of my morals and values stemmed from this household, these five individuals. my blood, my family, my own wang clan.

my parents are the roots of my principles and source of my faith. their bond is unbreakable and my link with them is growing stronger everyday. my parents came to the states in search of a brighter future for their children. they worked exhausting long hours and multiple jobs to provide us food on the table and clothes on our backs. they do not have social life with others or each other because their time and energy are spent slaving for our education, our material needs and our material wants. but often, that did not seem sufficient for us. we have always envied our friends with stylish clothes and flashy toys, we have always complained and wished that we were living their lives. we have cause them white hair and grey wrinkles before their scheduled arrival. we kids had only the selfish intentions and inconsiderate demands for a long time. but stuck by us and look us now, we are all grown responsible adults. we have installed all the life lessons in our head. we will probably never be able to repay enough in this lifetime, we but sure will try our hardest. i know when i have children of my own one day, i can only wish to be half of the parents you are to us four. we are truly blessed family.

Having three sibling all my life, i really cannot comprehend what it is like being the only child. when i was younger, i thought luxury of being the only child. having my parents' undivided attention at all time and have my every demand fulfilled at all cost. but now thinking back, i am sure glad it did not played out that way. i do not think i could have handled the pressure of being the only child well. being a straight a student and having a clean cut image has never fit my profile, so i am happy i have two other sisters and a brother to share that responsibility. no all blames were on my head and certainly not all rules were broken by me. on that note, i must thank my siblings for putting up with my untamed attitude and countless emotional outbursts growing up. on the flipside, they definitely have done their share of damage to my existence. i probably hated them at some points. but we are siblings after all, so forgiven is a non-written rule. we always find ways to resolve our differences, and they range from countless silent wars to some outrageous catfights. many were probably avoidable, but they might have assisted in our healthy relationships with one another today. the rock hard wang kids bond!
