Dear My Poor Piglet

I think I know what my parents are thinking...sending away their youngest daughter to the contaminated world full of swine flu virus is just out of the question. Even for a week! Sigh, I really need to go though...I know the guy I happen to love shouldn't be put before my people's health when the government is desperate to prevent more contagion from spreading. My mom says it is not a matter of money (I can get a cheaper flight now because people have canceled their plans to visit the States!), but I can't really afford the $2,000 ticket over the summer. And above anything else, I need to see and talk to him in person. I need to.
