Am I on your list?

Talking with old friends can get really touching sometimes. I was moved when one of my friends said, among those people who have great impacts in my life, you are on my top five list.

27 years of my life, I knew nothing but trying to be a better person. I'm glad to share my experiences with the ones who need them. I'm willing to help the best I can. I may not be a perfect person to ask for advice but I can definitely listen.

So............... Am I on your list?

UPS and DOWNS??!! Here are some...

One of my friends said, you have to enjoy the downs in your life!! So it made me think of my own experience about the DOWNS in my life. If I'm right, there's a saying goes like this "There are always ups and downs in life, and that's what makes it interesting."

I doubted if the one who said this had experienced any sort of pain near "Backache". Well, if you twisted your waist, it's surely one of the TOP FIVE DOWNS could happen in one's life.

I twisted it again yesterday and It hurt really bad. It's not a disease but will definetly make you suffer. It hurts badly no matter you stand, sit, walk or sneeze.
Even if you laugh too hard, it does kill.

Here are some of my experiences,

The first time I hurt my back was about two years ago. One day, I woke up and sat on bed. Suddenly I found I couldn't stand up at all. I was terrified. So I burst into tears and yelling for help. Luckily, I stayed with my family. Everyone was awaken by me. My sister took me to hospital and confirmed I hurt my back though didn't know why at all.

My mom took me to a neighbor, she's an old lady and has this so called "Traditional treatment" taught by her mom who had learned it from her mom and already passed away. The treatment is spooky. The lady asked me if my whole back hurt. I said yes. Then she looked at me into my eyes and said "OKAY, it's a serious one. Don't worry. Relax. It will soon be over before you find it."

Guess what?! She drank some water then used a little stick to pick up some white powder from a little box. AND.........SHE POKED ME IN THE EYES!!! Hurt??? Not really but the feeling's really weired. Teardrops were flowing down and I slept whole afternoon.

Surprisingly, I recovered by evening. As simple as that, just like magic! Sadly, I hurt my back yesterday at school and it hurt so much that I couldn't focus on teaching. I went to the lady again yesterday afternoon. Though I had experienced that, I was still afraid. It was scary but it did work very well lat two times.

Unfortunately, it didn't work well this time. I was thinking "When can I get home and lay down in bed?" all afternoon. But I managed to go through the classes till 19:00.

I went home and took rest in bed whole night. This morning I called in sick and arranged everything to be taken care of. I went to doctor and got an injection. Now I am feeling better. Should be okay after few days.......hope loh

DOWNS.........Wanna try and enjoy this??!!!

Phone calls that make you happy,proud and lonely.

There was a call this morning while I was still in bed. When I was about to answer it, the ring stopped. I knew who it was but I didn't call back for I knew it didn't really matter that much to me. Hahah....feeling a bit proud of myself.

Last night or I should say early this morning, I phoned my Japanese brother to wish him a happy birthday. We talked for half hour. That was a great chat! I haven't talked to him since he last visited me in Taiwan 2 years ago. Time flies and I suddendly felt so lonely after saying goodbye to him.

Real friends are always there for each other. As I can still remember the day I found out my ex might be cheating on me, I felt terrible and phoned him. He was at work so I left him a message crying with a broken heart. He phoned to comfort me.

I am thankful for those friends who are always there for me. Without you, I might die already. Promise me, we will always be there for each other, my friends!

I took this photo while I was on vacation at the resort I stayed. I like this photo and would like to share with you, my friends.  

Just ALONE or LONELY?

Sunday afternoon, alone at home. Started thinking what I can do alone. I was supposed to be at studio recording my shows till late in the evening. But I suddendly didn't feel like staying there for too long. So I walked out and got a cab home.

I am now alone. Trying to figure out what to do. There's no good movie on HBO and I have no books to read. So I started thinking of going out alone. But what's the meaning of that? I don't really feel like going out now and I don't want to stay at home.

I guess this is what people called "LONELY". I feel lonely. My friends are somewhere beyond easy-reaching distance and people seem to have fun and things to do with others. But only me.......... alone at home.

I'm not saying being alone at home is bad but it's just today. Why do I suddendly feel so empty inside. It seems nothing's there for me. I think this is what so called "LONELY".

Curiosity kills a cat. LONELY kills a person.
