Sometimes it's really hard for me to decide what kind of meal I should have.
For example, on Sunday mornings I usually ask my son what he wants for breakfast.
He usually says somethings like that. 
“I want to eat Q burger’s Peanut butter toast and milk tea. Those are yummy.”
“Those are unhealthy foods. They have too much sugar in them and a few nutrients.”
“Hmm…How about we buy rice balls and yogurts from the convenient store.”
“I don’t want to have any food from there on the weekends. To save time I usually buy my breakfast at a convenient store every weekday. Could we just pass on this option?”
“Chinese style breakfast. We could have meat buns, egg rolls, soy milk and things like that.”
“It’s a little oily/greasy. Besides I am on a diet. I can’t have too much carbs. There aren't many choices in Chinese breakfast shops.”
“OK. I give up. You can choose whatever you want,Dad. You are so hard to please.”
A few minutes later, I decide to head up to Q burger breakfast shop.
I knew my boy rolled his eyes at me when I turned around.

“Go pick a table”
“What’s the table number?”
“We're eating here. It's table 4. I would like a today special set, a medium hot Americano coffee, and two fried eggs on the same plate. And a Club Sandwich set and a warm soy milk for my boy.”
“It will take a minute. There are many orders ahead of ours.”
“Eat up. Focus on your food. Stop looking around.”
"Don’t drop your food on the ground. Move a little bit closer to the table."

The First time we met Last night, my wife asked me, “Do you remember the first time we met?” “Of course I do.”, I said. About ten years ago, my sister introduced one of her colleagues’ sister in law to me. She is a teacher. We went out several times, but it seems like things didn’t work out between us. Eventually, we became friends. We shared our daily life from time to time.  One day, she told me she has a friend who is single and she is a teacher too. She wanted to introduce her to me and then she helped us exchange phone numbers. This girl became my wife. At that night, we had a dinner together. We talked about our jobs, family, hobbies and other things. We took a walk in the campus near the restaurant. She didn’t feel comfortable to walk along the road with her high-heeled shoes. I didn’t notice that at that time. She just kept walking with me. At the end of the night, we both had a good first impression of each other. And then we kept dating. Aft...
