i've finally finished the k-drama that I've been watching for the past couple of weeks. but to say that i watched the whole thing would be lying. i was about 1/3 of the way thru when i decided to skip to the last episode (i dont think i have a dark side like harry tho - its not because in case I die before I finish, I know how it ends). these are seriously taking a lot of time and was dragging a bit. i got to a point where i was really impatient and also i didnt want to watch the part where the baddies had all these evil schemes against the good guys (who are so nice that they'd def fall for it).

I couldnt sleep last night because i had too much tea at night. its really annoying trying to enter sleep when your head is wide awake (i heard insomnia is like when an alcoholic is being locked out of a bar..is it?) and the weird thing is, it is usually during that time that i am most energetic and alert. i could think of a lot things and ideas, but too bad the next morning id forget them. (will write them down next time)
i did finally fall alseep and had a dream that a friend from Cali was driving me on her Jeep from a shopping mall back to my dorm room (we drove across the desert and rocky mountains-oh so fun). But the strange thing was, it wasnt my old room and it was messy - seriously dirty with clothes all over the floor and there were my 'friends' cept i didnt know who they were (they all had strange hair and were wearing hawaiian shirts) and i kept asking 'do you know this and that person' and they had no idea what i was talking about. freaked me out.

my daily schedules these days consist of dining with a whole bunch of ppl coz its CNY. yup! its that time of the year in taiwan now where people eat eat and eat. its all about the food (thats what i think), old friend/family gatherings, and kids getting pocket money. when i wake up, i get ready for lunch, and after lunch i get ready for dinner. this is really not my ideal lifestyle but thankfully it will all be over soon!

going to this hot spring place this arvo! fun fun!

oh, i was watching 'before sunrise' again the other day :) (who got me addicted? :p )
celine: "Isn't everything we do in life a way to be loved a little more?"
was thinking that i went thru hs wanting to excel in everthing, wanting to be the asian-stereotypical-'good'-girl-that-does-everything-'right' - all because of the need for others' approval. but by the grace of God, i now know of His unconditional love and am learning that i dont have to seek peoples' approvals, but only His alone.

okies, au revoir so long farewell...toodles
