Old friend from 26 years ago
Feb 25th, 2008 by Yue
Today, I received a wonderful surprise email from my best friend in grade school, Zhang Ying. We were classmates 26 years ago in Beijing, but had long ago lost touch. She found me by Googling my name and came across my blog.
It was amazing to hear from her after 26 years. Since I moved to the US, I have lost touch with most of the people I used to know in Beijing. I often wonder where they are, especially when traveling through China.
In 1999, Zhang Ying decided it was time for a change, packed her bags, and immigrated to the United States. Since then she’s earned not one, but two, master’s degrees, gotten married, and now lives in Washington, DC. I can’t wait for my next trip to DC, so we can see each other again after all these years!
