it took him 1 second to fall in love...

He said it took him only a second to fall in love...it was a feeling when you meet someone by chance and your heart beats fast as they come closer. This feeling of love was clarified when after that chance meeting...her image was imprinted on his mind and the thought of meeting again makes his heart pound and goodbyes makes his heart sink to its lowest making it difficult to breath. Time seems to fly when they are together, but when apart, time seems to stall.

the fear factor out of buying a new home...

For me, buying a home feels like a ball and chain is placed around my ankle--preventing me from going anywhere. It is definitely a scary task for me to undertake since I like having my freedom to travel and move (or change jobs) anytime I feel like it. But, I did it! I thought maybe since I'm getting to be at the age where I should stay in one place for a while and possibly grow some fruit trees in the backyard...etc., I went ahead and signed the dotted line and committed to a 30-year imprisonment

Taking aside my unreasonable fear, I actually enjoyed the process of having a house built. Although it is not my first time, I enjoyed watching my house built from the ground up. It definitely took a while for me to decide whether I wanted carpeting or wood floors (considering the cost). Now, I get to have the pleasure of designing the backyard. It's a working process but it's fun and I've learned a lot about carpentry and interior design.

ahh youth...

Looking through old photos...I try to imagine events in my life as a young woman and was saddened that it was gone...my youth, although I experienced some hardships, it was one wonderful trip. Love at first sights...first dates...broken hearts...seeing a foreign place for the first time and encountering a beautiful flower that I've never seen before. I truly miss my young self...

Unforgettable feelings of youth...

My heart skipped a beat when I first saw him. I spotted him in a crowded place, as if someone told me to turn his way. From that day on...his face was always in my mind...smile comes when I think of him...his glances...my nervous feelings
