life.

I don’t know why a lot of people have this misconception of china, like its really cheena and all. In actual fact it’s really nice here, the people, the pace of life, allowing you to learn to appreciate the simplest things in life. We talked to people from many other countries, okay, mainly because we’re staying at an international hostel; but strangers take the effort to greet us, talk to us, with smiles all over. How many a time have you pretended not noticing someone to spare the trouble of engaging in a small talk? Well, I’m guilty of that; another thing is that people here don’t judge, it just feels good to be yourself.

You know, now that I think, we are really too pampered which caused us to miss out a lot of chances to experience simple things in life that can be beautiful. The thing that I enjoy most now is to walk down the streets at night, there’re shops everywhere with music playing, it’s just so. . . . . . peaceful? You do not have to care about anything at all. Times like that allows me to recharge myself and reflect on issues that I feel are important.

I feel that I’ve grown in some ways; this trip allows me to realize things that I don’t in Singapore. I don’t know why but the image I portrayed to others is not true. Those who don’t know me well tend to think that I’m very dependent, lack of security, weak, cannot adapt to changes and all. In actual fact, I’m just the opposite. I’m not implying that I am really strong and mighty if you get what I mean. Yes, I do miss my friends and family but I do not break down, I do not feel sad at all. Well it makes me feel guilty cos my mum is rather sad. But that doesnt mean i dont care,whenever I think of them, it’s always smiles. Furthermore, I always feel that a couple needs time apart to test how strong the relationship is. Till date, I’m really happy here. I feel very comfortable as I really trust baby and whenever I think of him, it never fails to bring a smile on my face. To think that he’s joining me soon makes me happy too, cause I want to walk down the streets, hand in hand with him.

What I need is someone to support me mentally, he do not have to be there all the time; and I think I found him.

One of the hardest things in life is to understand yourself, im glad that im one step closer now. (:

What about you?
