Hero Entry 5 - Karen Yuen

Friend! Yes, here would be a beautiful picture of my friend Karen. I assure you she has no problem with me posting this picture because it used to be her profile picture on facebook not too long ago.

Though we like to act that we can’t stand another, the truth is that next year I will miss hanging out with him at home.

He is still at the age where he can waste most his days in front of the television without any school conflicts, so in some ways having him play
