Life so boring :/

But okay wanna hear me gossip?

So I'm Chinese American.

So my older brother just got a visa to China valid for 10 years, 90 days per visit for "visiting relatives" but he plans to meet some girl in China and get married and then bring her to the US and like start a family or something... And he already some girl's WeChat and started chatting... (or something like that not sure)

Dude is so socially awkward my mom has to, via some "friend of friend" network or something, arranged for their introduction to each other... I mean for context my parents are also in an arranged marriage... so this is just echoing the past really...

He went to college for 4 years in the US and didn't get together with any girls... (I mean I'm not judging lol, I was too depressed to even go to college) so yeah there's that

Here's the thing tho, he was so abusive as a brother to me (he's 5 years older than me and already caused me so much trauma), I can't imagine this dude being a father... probably gonna be abusive to his children... RIP.

My family didn't even tell me about it... they just talk so loud in the livingroom I overheard everything lmfao.

So yeah..

/end of gossip
