Sichuan Garden

When you walk into the restaurant the greeting is a southern hospitality atmosphere served with smiles and undivided attention to details. From the time that you sit down and view the menu of delectable entrees, the customer service is excellent and the restuarant has elegant decor. My cousin and her friend and I had the best meal that was worth every penny. The best entree that deserved bragging rights was the delicious, "House Dry pot" and the appetizers were just a snack for our tastebuds to prepare for what was coming. Located at 110 N. IH 35 Suite 240 Round rock, Texas 78681 Sichuan Garden deserves praise for their delicious food and awesome customer service. Will the owner, can match his recommendations perfectly to the customers desire... Don't take my word for it. Try it out for yourself.

Something to Think About

In this thing we call life we have to learn how to be a friend. It may take us time to realize that the friend that we thought we were was not really being a friend at all. Sometimes you just don't wanna... Do ya understand what I am saying? Have you ever been on the opposite side? When you are waiting on that blessing. Your friend is continuously giving praise reports and you are still waiting in line for your blessing? Instead of being an encourager you become a discourager. You act as if their "good news" is not valid and you may even question it. You never support them and "always" have plans or something sporadically comes up, you won't call to say Congrats and as a matter of fact you are MIA during their time of shine. Do you ever wonder why you attract the type of people that you do? You are merely attracting your reflection. Doesn't make sense huh? Take a look around and see who is in your circle. See if those very people that you call a friend share the same characteristics as you... Now back to our feature presentation. Lol. So you resurface and when you do finally share in their joys you bring the spirit of "Yea I am hating and I want you to indirectly know attitude." If people are in tune, they will know in their spirit if you are there to really support them or not. If you can't bring a genuine spirit of support, keep yourself at the house. Now watch this! Your time of shine comes and that very friend is right there with you to share your joys. Your friend never took score, your friend didn't throw up in your face how you weren't there for her or him. They were just so happy for you, they shared in your victory. Today as you are going on your day. Ask yourself. What type of friend do I want to be? We may not like the way things are delivered to us in our lives and everyone has to wait in line for their blessing. Sometimes the lesson that God is wanting us to learn is patience. It is at that point when we begin to work on our patience that he delivers us that blessing. In conclusion you always you have to learn to be a friend to yourself, before you can extend a friendship to someone else and that comes from you understanding and knowing you. Remember these things. 1. Everyone has to wait in line- It can be uncomfortable, however there is a blessing in waiting. Patience is a virtue. 2. Learn to be happy just because- There is healing in smiling and sharing in the joys of just being happy. Besides there are tons of benefits in smiling. Smiling releases Endorphins, natural pain killers and Serotonin, smiling changes your mood, and of course smiling is contagious. Have you ever been in a bad mood for whatever reason and someone smiled at you and the only thing you could do is smile back.. Lol.. Yep. You've been caught by the smiling bug. 3. Learn to be supportive- This is an art and quite frankly you will truly be blessed by surrounding yourself with other's that are optimistic. When you are supportive towards other's there is a sense of purpose that you feel by just being there for them.

We Dream - A little Poetry for you

We dream.


Not to please others, but offer fullfillment in our lives.



We dream.

Because life offers a substance called positivity.

We dream, because there was once a child that lives in us all that once said, "I want to be"
We live out our dreams because HE dreamed it first and gave us hope.



Hope to see a better tomorrow.



Hope to pray our ways through the valleys that shield us from knowing that WE can do better than we did the day before.



We dream.
We dream because, when we wake up, there is reality.


We dream.
We dream because we know that their is no fear that can be instilled in us that keeps us from trying..



We dream.
To live a life better that we did before.. To raise the bar and open the doors. To new beginnings and challenging things.

This is the reason that we dream..
We dream because life offers so many opportunities.

We dream because the effects of education becomes a mind that is filled with triggers that can be shot to share knowledge with the world.



In return this knowledge can build a better community..
In return this knowledge can bond our families.
In return this knowledge can help us raise our children.

We dream.. We dream.
Because when we wake up, there is reality to make our dreams.

Come true.



The dream started with him, now it continues with you.
