Mike & Melody just welcomed a baby girl!

When I was in Canada, I got to know Melody Song, a Chinese girl who had moved to Canada to be with her boyfriend Mike, and whom, just like me, was kinda forced by circumstance to move to Canada. She loved China big time, and didnt wish to leave, but missed her boyfriend too much. I loved my life in Egypt, and was so proud that I had finally gotten into the Business school in AUC so I too felt that it was a stupid move to leave that behind for Canada at that point. So we had quite alot in common in that sense so we bonded pretty quickly. I remember how we used to talk about alot of our differences, culture-wise especially, and they were the most interesting conversations I had had in quite a while. Then I met her bf Mike, and we spent a weekend together at Mike's parents house, and wow that was an experience! Eating noodles for breakfast, helping them make dumplings for dinner, it was just cool! Had to explain why I couldn't have wine with my food, and they had to explain how healthy their food was in comparison to what "those North Americans" were eating hehe. Well, Mike and Melody eventually married, and I lost touch with them for the past year or 2 and today, SURPRISE, found photos of their baby girl in my inbox! She's the cutest thing I have ever seen! It just reminded me of how much can happen in just a couple of years ;) CONGRATS MIKE & MELODY!
