All because of a Spanish project.

I dug these up for this project ("family memory book") for Spanish; wasn't I just adorable?

Back when I was a single child, I was quite the spoiled one. Definitely mischievous and the Miss-Little-Prim-Princess. I dressed in dresses and skirts (some handmade my mama and nainai (grandma in Chinese)), but acted like a boy. I had a lot of playmates that were boys, and one-two galfriends.

1. My grandpa would take me on his bicycle to ride round-and-round park. (Back in Shenzhen China). Part of the reasons why I was spoiled was because of my grandparents. Because I was the youngest and the "newest" addition to the Zhu/Huang (mom's side), they primmed me up so much that I wouldn't even bother to walk when I was outside... I knew someone would always carry me.

P.S. If you can see me, I have these 2 pigtails on the back of my head (tied w/ red barrettes). I think my mom had way too much fun tying my hair up in different styles, because I had the craziest hairstyles when I was little.

2. Back in Canada. I think this was within the 1st few months there. My dad told me that I fell down a ditch right after that picture was taken...and let go of me.

3. My 3rd birthday. I was born on October 24, 1993; however, back in China, people celebrate their b-day by the Lunar Calendar. That's why the photo was dated on November 12, 1996.

P.S. Couldn't blow out the candles myself... so I had to get help.

4, 6, 7. One of those random running-around-the-house in my pink nightie with my toys.

5. My 3rd Christmas. All dressed up in my traditional Chinese uniform with the most awesomest headband on my head.

P.S. I might scan some more pictures of mini-me' outfits later... my mama made me the cutest little dresses! Also, there might be some pictures of young-mum, who was quite the fashionable doll.
