Li-Na Yiu shared a video. 04/12 near Viea Village

[Li-Na is sitting in her room at Chiyo's house.] First. I have an announcement. [she holds up a piece of paper with RU letterhead and grins.] I was accepted to Recolle University! [She has to stop and take a calming breath, because every time she thinks about the letter she gets so excited she can barely talk.] I am going to major in dance, as pretty much anyone who knows me can guess. Wish me luck! [She puts down the letter, and then switches to the other camera on her phone. This provides a view of three large boxes sitting on the floor of the room.] I received some mail from my brother recently, including these packages. Which are FULL of food. I cannot eat all of it. So if anyone would like to try some of my favorite snacks from Hong Kong, just comment!

[ooc: the packages contain a wide variety of Chinese, Korean, and Japanese snacks foods, including pretty much anything in the above picture]

Hmmmmm, I have shrimp chips, fish crackers, and Pretz! Those are more savoury flavoured.

I remember eating an entire bag of shrimp chips all by myself in one sitting before... Are you sure you're willing to share all of this? They last several months to over a year, if you prioritize them by expiration date.

[invocate]

I am sure. I think I would feel a little ill seeing it all after a while.

[compendiem]

It's little different from keeping it all in your pantry or snack drawer or at the bedside. I'm not complaining. Just feels a little weird eating something that's meant specifically for you, from your family who wanted to make sure you're happy and well fed.

Well, my brother sent a bit more than I can eat, even if it had just been one package. And he would not be upset if I shared with my friends.

[compendiem]

Hmm. You have a good brother. I dunno if you can write back outside of the city, but if you're ever able to, tell him I said thanks.

[invocate]

I have not been able to send him physical mail, but I will try. If we can get mail from outside, then we should be able to send mail out, right?

[compendiem]

Presumably. I've sent something out in November that I got a reply back from this week. So... things are reaching some places, some time.

Hopefully this means they are making progress on fixing the communication problem.
