My books were shipped yesterday. I have thought they would do it earlier. Anyway I will keep the Olympian book to read at my flight.

I just read a news that another Gunn high kid (a girl this time) killed herself by jumping into an incoming train last night. I cannot believe how she could think of ending her life at such a young age, when life is just beginning. It is so sad. I hope my kids will never, ever think about suicide. I hope they will come to me if there is anything bothering them. There is always a solution to any problem you can face, even though you may think there is no solution.

There is a saying in "Sound of music": when God closes a door, he will open a window.

Thanks God for my beautiful children. Maybe they live to a ripe age.
