Termite TV - Life Stories

I was born Diane Louie. That’s my maiden name. Both of my parents came from China and _____. And I attended _____ school for 8 years when I was a child and then I went on to Philadelphia High School for girls. Then I went to Temple University and I got my degree in Spanish and I’m currently translating at First Union Bank in the international area, where I receive ___ and mails, swift messages and I translate them from foreign language in to English. I also know some French, Portuguese, Italian, a little bit of German. So, I cover that myself. And right after I got out of college I was married. I was married for about 2 years. I started late. I have 2 kids. One of them is going to Holy Redeemer right now. She’s in first grade and I have another little girl, she’s 2 years old and she’s at a day care that’s subsidized by my job in the market. At First Union they have on sight daycare for the employees…And I guess everything is coming full circle because y own kids are going to Holy Redeemer now. And, what else do I want to say. My husband, he works in jewelery manufacturing. Let’s see what else. My personal interest, I like to do arts and crafts when I have time. With the kids it’s a little hectic but I like to make things, make gifts for my friends and my relatives and I enjoy reading. I enjoy going to the theater, ballet and I try to instill those same interests in my oldest daughter. Right now she’s very interested in drawing. She appears to have some talent and um, what else? I have 2 older brothers. One is in Minnesota, he’s an attorney, and I have another brother in Delaware. He began as a pharmacist. He owns his own, um, like a pharmaceutical company, markets a certain product. And I have 1 nephew who is the same age as my daughter that’s here in this daycare and my father; he lives in Philadelphia, my mom passed away about 11 years ago. But he still resides in Philadelphia. And we all get together for family get together. You know, my brother flies home, we all get together and, let’s see what else. My husband and I, before the kids came, we enjoyed traveling a lot. We’ve been all over the place. We’ve been to Europe, we’ve been to Asia, we’ve been in parts of the continental United States. And he was born in Germany so we’ve been there a few times to visit his family and we compiled a lot pictures and videos of all the things we’ve seen. Like Switzerland, Italy, France, England and China, we’ve been there 3 times. I have some, I have a grandmother that’s still living there, and a whole bunch of cousins, which I have never seen their pictures because they live in a very remote area of China and we just went to like the sight seeing regions. And hopefully when the kids get a little bigger and all this stuff, the terrorism is over, maybe we’ll travel. Maybe we’ll go back to China with the kids, I don’t know. And, um , that’s it
