Yes, I know i haven't been uploading the pages for v. long time. I have been immersed fully in the studies and during my spare time, i spent it on travelling. As such, i had no time to come back and write any paragraphs to capture what I have experienced through out the months.
Let me summarize them in few paragraphs.
Edinburgh Life: it was very peaceful and calm. I like the way that I have everything that i need nearby. I love the kitchen and the people I get to meet in it. it is somewhat the life that I could imagine living like that in the future by myself. It doesn't really matter that I have to have a big space or not, but, I do realize, I need my space, the space where I could bury my head out in the air and spend a day with my imagination, day dreaming without people worrying if i have gone out of my mind being too quiet. I missed the town once I got to Milan.
Milano Life: a very hectic one - v. fast-paced, by the time i realised, it was the end of the stay. The school was very demanding; full day from 9 to 5 (more or less) Monday to Thursday with consecutive classes starting at different dates and timing and, also, the same patterns for exams and assignments. Nonetheless, I had managed my time to learn Thai massage, a somewhat part-time job that I have picked up with the ladies I get to know just by my curiousity entering the massage place near CDS :) They actually became my sanctuary where i went quite often to eat Thai food (it was the best there) and laid around doing nothing. Plus, I have been living in a marathon mode, where I took off from Milan almost every weekends to the places nearby. I got to go to Barcelona, Switz (twice), Vienna, Budapest, Bratislava, paris, London, and Rome etc. It has been tough but I managed it somehow with the workload... incredible... I am starting to think that I am the super woman now that I am looking back. Nonetheless... I could say, I never regret in anything. I got to know more of people in my course as well - this was because I decided to get out of my shell and became a party animal again .. (after decided to stop it in Singapore ) - and life has been an excitingly frustratingly interesting with several issues since... There are just soooooo many things going on that I wish I had time to jot them down and let you all read.... Milan was eventful, indeed :) luvvv it!
And now? I am in Venice, with my OLDEST best friend, Mon, we are together again after several touch-and-go meetings throughout the years that we have parted. It is like a process where we come and learn about each other gain. I never imagine I could stay with another person this long... I know I was to fight with her and yes, we did fight with our differences in the opinions etc... and this is good that we have been so frank with each other to fight or argue all along. It is good that we are so comfortable with each other that we can say whatever at first.. and then, we overcame it until we don't fight anymore... It's just the process of adaptation to each other's lifes... actually I am lucky having her travelling with me.. she knows me afterall, and I also know her more or less (i think .. haha) and that actually reassures me somehow that I have a fine hope that I could be with another person... (after i have thought that this life, it would be very hard for me to get anyone who could bear me through all my bad and happy moods.. Mon has the experiences :P - she is a special one indeed.... haha. .. Don't know why and how she can tolerate my nonsense idiot all the time like me....
Well, this should be enough for now, if I want to come back and remind of several other things, I would.
