My Facebook

In this "information age" and the era of social media, I feel the need to take a minute to touch on my relationship with my Facebook.

1.  I joined Facebook on 3/13/2009 because one of my friends "friended" me.  I still remember making a statement on my profile, not particularly social media friendly. 

2.  Over the past 5 years, I was able to successfully secure 4 valuable Facebook friends:

       My little Michelle (age 24)
       My little Larry (my nephew, age 17)

       Steve Chen (my cousin's son who came to the U.S. for college and graduate school, age 24)

       Jeremy Cai (my good friend's son who went to college last year and is living his BIG dreams, age 19)

3.  There are MANY "friends" pending in the que.  If you are one of them, please accept my sincere apology.  I did not mean to offend you... but fundamentally, I want to preserve my Facebook only for younger generations.

4.  After 5 years, my Facebook page contains (only) the following lovely entries --        

11/26/2011:  Pei Tang became friends with Michelle Zhang

12/22/2012:  Tagged by Michelle -- Courtesy of my mother who spends all of her free time traveling to beautiful places and taking amazing photos at strange hours.

05/12/2013:  Tagged by Michelle -- Mom, you are the coolest. You can tell by the sunglasses. Happy Mother's Day, I love you! (This is not the cool picture Michelle referred to).

03/25/2014:  Tagged by Michelle -- Because while I am here struggling to maintain my sanity, my mom is off in California taking pictures like this.

08/15/2014:  Tagged by Michelle -- Courtesy of my mother, who somehow can make even Naperville look amazing.

5.  I must tell you, every time my pictures got tagged by my little Michelle, I felt like I won a big photography award!!
