I love...

I've been told by some people that I'm cold, not romantic, and quite harsh when saying things to those who need to be comforted. Well, I'm fine with that comment though ;p

When encouraging someone who's just broken up, I'm not a person who'd lie to comfort that person. The more realistic they can see, the faster they can move on. (Maybe this is the line when they point back at me and say 'It's not your turn yet!' or 'Have you ever been in a real long relationship?') The next second I just have to shut my mouth. Hahaha!

Valentine's Day is the day that makes those who are still single and available tremble, either with insecurity coz they have no one to go out with or excitement to meet new people. Some are desperate in finding love. Well, I've also been asked 'How do you enjoy life when you have no one?' I'm sure a lot of you think the same as I do: 'We all have someone: family and friends.' It's just not enough for some people. Having an intimate relationship with someone other than family and friends is a great blessing. That is true but it is also true that enjoying life without an intimate relationship is a rare gift.

People have love for God, orphans, and those who are in need, and I think that's wonderful. Alright, back to the topic 'I love...', I'd say I LOVE doing things alone though it could be fun to do with other people: eating something delicious, watching movies, having coffee while digesting some thoughts, or relaxing in a quiet place. I love seeing someone is working behind the scene for others. I love seeing old couples who take care of each other and just wish my love will be like that if I ever have one. I love seeing that someone's having a good time by themselves.

I'm NOT saying that we should give up on finding true love and embrace the single life. I'm just saying love is all around and love will find you.

For me, this post aims to comfort those who are single. For others, it might be just another pathetic, self-comfort note. So, am I romantic enough?

So, I realized that I haven't updated this blog for quite a long time. I blame facebook and hi5 then ;p I posted most of my pix on facebook and put some posts in Thai on hi5. There are times that I think to myself 'Should I keep this blog?' On one side, I like to write stuff here and share with people once in a while. On the other hand, things get too complicated and I can't explain in words and get lazy to write it out. So wheteher this is the last post or not, I want you to know that I appreciate your time for reading my wandering mind here and hopefully, we still keep in touch one way or another (email, hi5, facebook etc.) :)

After August 2008, i had a really tough semester so it's another excuse to not write anything here. Then I had a wonderful time in December coz it was my holiday. I watched movies all day all night and travelled to some places in NZ. I went to Coromandel (Hot Water Beach, Cathedral Cove where they shot Narnia: Prince Caspian), Waitomo Cave (for blak water rafting and glow worms), Tauranga ( as usual, to visit some Thai friends), then 5 days in the South Island (Christchurch, Denedin, Queenstown, Wanaka). The road trip in the south was amazing!

I came back to Palmerston North before New Year so I went to the city centre with another friend. We walked around town, had dinner, watched a movie and joined the celebration in the middle of the town. They lit some fireworks where they set up a concert stage. It was ok better than being lonely on campus.

Now, I'm back to school :( It's gonna be my last semester then i'll go back to my lovely home country :) The weather is nice, rarely rains. Sometimes it's hot and sometimes it's chilling. One thing I like about NZ is that I don't get bitten by mosquitoes here (or maybe once). Unfortunately, now it's summer, and bugs are flying around...arghh!!
