🩷Me & all my awesome, loving family on this photo. I will always love my older sister Catherine Van-Schwartz (Catt)(Former KOLO 8 News Now News Reporter). 🩷
To my sister, I don't care how you look like, because you'll always be beautiful to me & I'll never judge or say anything bad about you to anyone.
I know most people don't want to be seen right after giving birth, but you'll always be my role model since I was a baby & still my role model today & forever no matter what happens. Love you.😭🩷
I love my blood-related family & love my extended family members & all who are connected to us. 🩵Again, Catherine gave birth (natural birth, the extra painful birth) to a beautiful, baby girl April 25, 2024. She's super adorable! I love mixed babies & all babies!😍They're the cutest.💕All babies are cute too. I hope you (Catherine) have a fast recovery & heal fast.❤️
I'm so happy I'm an Aunty now! Auntie Mina will try to be the best auntie ever including Adam's 2 sisters (1 older & 1 the same age as me).
I'm beyond excited! You made me an auntie & I want to cherish these SUPER precious, very IMPORTANT moments with the people I love most in pictures, because babies & people grow fast.
Time flies by fast. I'm so happy I have a baby niece & again my parents & my older brother-in-law Adam's parents are grandparents now! Congrats! 🎉Yay!🥹😁😭😃😊😊
Song played on Instagram is called "The One" by the Backstreet Boys our top childhood favorite band & best band ever!🩵🙌🩷
Always needing some prayers again.🙏 I, Mina Van 文风英 Woon Foong Yin (in Hakka Chinese).Nevada born & raised.Proud nurse, coach. Family living in Nevada for 45 (forty-five) years.Spread kindness.❤️

Here's pictures of all me & my family! I went to Portland State University today! Also, today April 25, 2024, my older sister Catherine Van-Schwartz (Catt) (Former KOLO 8 News Now News Reporter) gave birth to a baby girl! I am finally an aunty today! Yay! I'm so excited! 😍 Auntie Mina will try to be the best auntie including Adam's 2 sisters too. (1 older, 1 the same age as me). My niece has 3 aunties! We're going to be the best aunties!😃🙌
😍My baby niece is adorable! Mixed babies are extra cute! Half Asian, half white! 😍Congrats to my sister & Adam, my awesome older brother-in-law!😁My mom & I went to the hospital & visited!
It was so exciting! Cutest name the baby has too! Omg!😃Can't wait for Catherine to share with everyone before I share with everyone! My parents & Adam's parents are both now grandparents! Yay!😃 I love our families & our extended families.🩷
I gave a gift & bought the baby the cutest baby clothes because I love Disney & Minnie Mouse. 😍Also bought my baby niece a cute baby blue, flowered sundress with a cute sun hat. 💕
Also, I feel so much happier now eventhough I was really upset a few days ago because something different big happened back in Nevada, but I'm not going to talk about it that now.
Anyways I'm going to enjoy the fact that I have a new baby niece hope she gets me & my sister's high intelligence, athleticism, good singer/dancer, but most importantly to be raised right & to always be kind. Can't wait when the baby's older so we could have tea parties! Also excited for new beginnings in a few weeks & more positive things to happen!

Here's me doing Jump splits! Eventhough I've been really sad, & won't get over what happened until weeks later, I'm loving it in Oregon! 3rd time in Oregon! First time I went to Oregon was when I was 10 years old with my older sister, cousins, & family. The other time was my older sister's wedding in 2019. 🩷
Also, if you get a text message of this picture of me today, it was seriously an accident hahaha! I don't know how a few people got on my text messages some I've haven't talked to in years!
Anyways still excited for new beginnings in the upcoming weeks! Eventhough some bad has come, the other good things will be coming too & I'm so excited for what's to come! I was feeling really sad & down yesterday again, but today was a little different. Also, still needing some serious prayers.

Had a bad day today & am feeling tremendously sad but also had a good day eating Pizza & made friends with an old lady on the airplane who was white. We loved talking to each other. Glad I met her. I'm so happy about new beginnings to come in a few weeks!
Also, can't wait to be an aunty! Instead of some cousins calling me aunty, I'm going to be a REAL aunty this time. Can't wait for my older sister to have/give birth to a baby! I've been feeling so extra stressed & sad lately, at least some good things are coming soon!
I'm needing some extra prayers again though. I have a couple of health/heart problems, etc like I mentioned physically mostly but have been feeling better lately. Physically & mentally trying to be strong again.
Thanks to the few friends & even the few new people who have sent me nice messages & thanks to the 2 friends I called to & ranted to about something today. I still feel really sad but trying to forget about it. It's going to take weeks for me to get over it, but hey, I'll try to stay positive for all the positive things to come.🩷Spread Kindness.

💕𝓐𝓭𝓿𝓮𝓷𝓽𝓾𝓻𝓮𝓼~Excited for new adventures to come soon but still felt sad about some things so I finally went shopping after work & bought 2 cute dresses!😍 Made me feel slightly happier. Sky blue, powder pink, & red are my top favorite colors. Something besides nature/travel therapy, is shopping therapy! Hahaha!😁🙌
Also here are me & my adorable dogs in the car. Another great therapy is pet therapy! Also when you're feeling sad, just buy a cute outfit or some ice cream & it almost automatically makes you feel better. Feeling stylish again haha.💁🏻♀️😃
Song played on Instagram is called "Me!" By Taylor Swift Featuring Brendon Urie! One of my favorite songs back in 2019 & those who know me know I've loved Taylor Swift & her songs since 2008!

☀️🏃🏻♀️🤸🏻♀️Enjoying the sunshine on my Friday because the weekend is going to be rainy & chilly again. Took 5 hours to clean & set up the annual pool at home. Split the cleaning into 2 separate days. Still really cold but I felt so rejuvenated dipping in the new water in the pool of the year. Here's me doing jumpsplits & splits stretch near the pool & hot tub!
Life has been extra stressful these past few months & when I'm feeling really sad & when people are sh*tty at work or in public, at least I can have something relaxing & fun to go home to & most importantly going home to cuddle with my 2 dogs & 2 cats who are the best pets in the world.
Thank you to my parents who literally did years of hard work, saving up so they could give me & my older sister a good life in advanced when we were younger & continues to give me a good life now. Since I'm the youngest of the family, I'll be the last to move out.
I've been saving up for years for something big & important but we'll see, because everything is too expensive these past few years. Anyways, I'm satisfied with everything & think I have everything I ever wanted except for 1 more thing. So grateful though. Just a few more weeks for a new beginning! So excited! 🙏
Song played on Instagram is called "Have It All" by Jason Mraz! Love this singer & song! 🩵🙌

🐺Fun day with a good friend Aaron! We went swimming then hottubbing at my gym, ran around the track at the gym, then bought new solar sunglasses for the Solar Eclipse bought at the Planetarium, then walked around in the indoor track at the University of Nevada, Reno the college we graduated from with our Bachelors degrees from, then went to Joe Crowley building & both of us got Sushi Burritos which was actually really good! My first time trying Sushi Burrito! Aaron loved it too!
Almost Aaron's birthday & my other good friend's (Melanie Reynolds Sanford's) birthday this month, & 3 of my cousin's birthdays & then in May it's my older sister's birthday! So many amazing peoples' birthdays in April & May!

🩷New chapter begins in a couple weeks & I'm excited! Trying not to think about any sad stuff & trying to share positive things even though today was not the best day after work when I had to run an errand & I encountered some idiot guy (I reported him to the cops), haven't had anything like that happen in a long time, but anyways don't want to talk about that today like I said. I already told 2 of my friends & also told some of my family members... Anyways, Hoping to spread good vibes instead.✌🏻Here was me & my 2 adorable dogs before work today because my hair looked extra good.😍My 2 dogs & 2 cats always makes life so much better.🩵

💇🏻♀️Got my hair done at the salon! I'm super blonde again! 😍I haven't been super blonde since 2019. Blonde Balayage! Just wanted to look super different again because I was getting bored with my natural hair color. I love my dark hair but am obsessed with dyeing my hair a different color.
The people next to us doing hair, was talking about Scorpios. I got creeped out because I'm a November Scorpio... & never told any of them. Am I famous or something now?....Hahaha...anyways I was feeling sad before today again thinking about what happened to me 5 months ago (no it has nothing to do with work) someone back in November 2023 owes us BIG money... I want our money back!... anyways...I got my hair done & now I feel slightly better.
I saved up some money to do my hair. Other than that, my 2 part time jobs-I've been wanting to leave from soon still doesn't pay off much. Been grateful for my jobs though & have been trying to save up money. Can't wait for a new chapter though & super excited about something that's going to happen in a few weeks!
Anyways a new hairdo can change a lot in a good way.😊Don't worry my beautiful dark hair will grow back & grows back fast haha. It'll look really cool with dark roots in my hair & super bright, beautiful blonde ends. I'm in love.😍
Proud nurse, coach. Nevada born & raised. Family living in Nevada for 45 forty-five years.

✞♡𝓔𝓪𝓼𝓽𝓮𝓻! Happy Early Easter! He is Risen! Lent is over tomorrow! I gave up pork for about 40 forty days since Ash Wednesday back in February. Last year I gave up soda which was hard because I drink soda everyday hahaha I know, don't judge!
After work in the week we drove to Verdi to get some Lotto tickets for fun & see if we win some money haha. We only won $1. Only been to Verdi like 5 times in my life.
It was an eerie/creepy drive there this time, I'm not familiar with that part of town. Last time I was there was when my ex who was also another hott Army guy who was also white drove me there in 2020 to hangout & walk our dogs.
1st time I went to Verdi was Freshman year of High School around August 2007 when my cousins drove me there for our Cross-Country practice in High School near Walden's Coffee Shop. The mountains are always beautiful though.

🎂Today is my dead grandmother's birthday on my dad's side of the family (Thoai Ly-Van). 🩵She would've been 115 years old. She passed away 22 years ago. I was 9 years old. She died 4 months after September 11th 2001 on January 4, 2002.I was very close to her & she was one of my best friends. I always loved old people that's why I'm a part time Registered Nurse. I remember 2 years ago on this day I found $5 on the ground at work. Such a lucky day. My grandma's watching.❤️My angels.🩵
I made Chow Mein with Ramen noodles with no meat this time instead of with normal Chow Mein Noodles for my dead grandmother & put the food on our praying altar for our ancestors. Then my family & I ate all of it.
On my way home today, I was at an intersection & I had a greenlight-the truck in front of me sped through the greenlight & I almost followed him, good thing I stopped because an ambulance was coming in front of me eventhough I had a greenlight. Good thing I stopped in time. I did not hear their siren ringing but their siren was on. I stepped on my brakes super hard. Was a close one! Almost had a mini heart attack. Grandma saved me today! Haha

🏀Gonzaga Men's Basketball team just made it to Sweet 16 again! Yesss! Wooh! NCAA 🏀March Madness! I hope we make it to Elite 8, Final Four, & Top 2! Yes! Also wished Nevada Wolf Pack Men's Basketball team could have won Dayton 2 days ago but it's okay, Arizona beat Dayton today so Dayton is out too! I hope Gonzaga makes it all the way again!🤩😍🙌

Also, I worked out again at my gym & ran 4 miles instead of 3 miles. I'm so happy I feel well enough to run that far again & have that much energy again. Hot tubbed a little bit & visited an old church I used to go to, my favorite church me & my college choir (I was in the UNR Auditioned Advanced Choir Chamber Chorale) sang at Saint Thomas Aquinas Catholic Church!
Sobbed all day yesterday thinking my dogs are getting older & 1 of my dogs can't run more than 2 miles anymore thinking that I can't believe my dogs are both almost 8 years old. 😭I bought them both when they were 12 week old puppies almost 8 years ago. Seriously time flew by-can't believe it's almost 8 years & they're senior dogs now. Been really emotional about it. So I worked out today again so I can distract myself with all the other stresses & sadness in life. I used to run with my dogs a lot. I'll distract myself with a few other exciting stuff coming up & try not to think about it. 🥹Snuggling with my dogs & cats now.🩵
Proud nurse, coach. Family living in Nevada for 45 (forty-five) years. Nevada born & raised.
Song played on Instagram is called "Ride It" by Regard a very good workout song! 🙌❤️

🏥𝓗𝓸𝓼𝓹𝓲𝓽𝓪𝓵~Commuted to Minden this morning. Had a good lunch break though & beautiful view of mountains as usual. 🩵😍In-N-Out Burger is always the best! Haha. Found out Pentatonix & Switchfoot are coming to town-so exciting!😍🤩 Don't know if I could make it though 🙈 but knowing that they will be in the same town as me, is beyond awesome & makes me super happy!
