A flower-heart is someone who shows up hungover to her SATs and half-asses her college admission essays. She\u2019s also addicted to Starbucks lattes, expensive makeup, and super-fun parties.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But a tiger son born into the family is supposed to make a lot of money and bring honor to his family name. Total sexist bullshit, am I right? Maybe that superstition existed in China in the time of Confucius, but not in 21st century America, where Siri and iPhones practically run our lives.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Can I tell you an embarrassing and hideous secret?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When I was born, I was covered with thick, abundant hair all over my entire body, like I was an actual tiger cub. According to my parents, I even had coarse hairs growing on my chin, forehead and cheeks.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">My mom likes to joke that I actually looked like a hairball spat out by a designer cat.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">My dad says that he dreamed that my mom had given birth to a tiger cub two weeks before I was born, but he\u2019s deeply superstitious. He\u2019s the kind of guy who checks with a feng shui master before buying a painting for the house or making a new friend. My dad is born in the Year of the Goat, so he believes that anyone who isn\u2019t a farm animal, like his tiger daughter, i.e. me, brings him bad luck. Before he could propose to my mom, who is a Zodiac Dog, he consulted the Chinese almanac. Then he hired a Chinese monk to work out the math and interview his future bride.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When my mom told him she was going to give birth to a tiger, he was extremely worried. \u201cA Dog and Goat for parents are no match for a tiger!\u201d he exclaimed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When he found out that his tiger cub was going to be a girl, I think he actually cried from anxiety.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Anyway, I was lucky that a lot of my facial hair fell off by kindergarten. But it doesn\u2019t explain the gross, extremely long mustache-like hairs that sometimes appear when I\u2019m super stressed. These hairs sprout above my upper lip and even grow out of my ears. I swear, those hairs are like, my whiskers. Thank god for the invention of hair wax and affordable laser treatment.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Without deluxe Nair Wax-Ready Strips, I don\u2019t think I could ever be seen in public during times of great personal duress.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That, and I have to blame my bad luck on my sometimes too loving, overprotective parents. As soon as I was born, they took me to a famous fortune-teller who was visiting from China to ask her how to fix my life trajectory.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It all went wrong from the very beginning.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You see, the fortune teller, Madame Xing, found a funny-shaped mole under my right eye and said it looked like a teardrop. Like I was born to be permanently crying.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThis flower-heart is no good,\u201d she announced to my parents after a quick examination. My mom and dad were probably horrified and praying that they could send me back to the hospital and switch me for a Tiger Boy.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It also didn\u2019t help that I was one of those babies who was always crying and puking everywhere. My mom said that I just barfed on Madame Xing\u2019s mink fur and she got flustered and started cussing nonstop. My dad swears that this was bad luck, as it offended a powerful fortune-teller, who must have put a double curse on me.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After our first and only fortune-telling session, Madame Xing cryptically said, \u201cKeep both eyes on your tiger daughter. If you take one eye off, she will bring shame on your family with her weak flower-heart.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whatever she said was true. Since I was born, I guess I was destined to be a flower-heart. I have a weakness for terrible choices and terrible boys.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This brings me to my current situation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-6967\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Banner-001-New-May-2020.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"850\" height=\"40\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Banner-001-New-May-2020.png 850w, https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Banner-001-New-May-2020-300x14.png 300w, https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Banner-001-New-May-2020-768x36.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-6984\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/All-About-the-Author-2.0.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/All-About-the-Author-2.0.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/All-About-the-Author-2.0-300x59.png 300w, https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/All-About-the-Author-2.0-768x150.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-6982 size-thumbnail\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Lindsay-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Lindsay Wong<\/strong>&#8216;s fearless writing and askew sense of humour chronicle adventures and disasters with copious amounts of playfulness and generosity.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">She is the author of the #1 bestselling debut memoir The Woo-Woo: How I Survived Ice Hockey, Drug-Raids, Demons, and My Crazy Chinese Family, which won the 2019 Hubert Evans Nonfiction Prize and was named one of the Best Books of 2018 by Newsweek, CBC Books, the Globe and Mail, and the Quill and Quire.
