Change

So I'm sure you all noticed the big change in the layout of my blog. That is because I was getting tired of the brown one. The only reason I liked the brown one was because it had the world map. and since I traveled from one country to another I felt it was reasonable to have my layout as the world map. lol But now...now that I've already arrived here and have begun a new chapter in my life, I figured this (the layout I have now) would be a good fit. I like the fact that all my logs are underground and not up in the sky. It shows the "real" me...I "dig" deep for my true thoughts and share it with you all. Anyway. I also changed the title because I'm no longer a beautiful stranger...actually I never was. It was the picture of the girl with crazy lashes who was the beautiful stranger. I changed it to she meets life because...well, I meet life. and get this. I made a youtube account and titled it Sh3meetslife (I don't have a significant reason for...

European vs American

Greetings to all. This weekend went by quicker than I had imagined. Let's see..what did I do?? Saturday was a walk in the park...literally. haha I was home till 2 or 3pm. Then I thought to myself, "Dang, I need to walk or exercise rather than sit my lazy butt here in my room." SO I did. Last time I went out for a walk, I went in a direction opposite of where I would go (towards the bus stop). I found a soccer field with a cafe. Yes there was a game going on so I stayed there for a while under the scorching sun. I believe they were high school kids playing cuz the audience were old (parents, grandparents, uncles, etc.). After 5 to 10 minute of getting excited for the soccer match, I left home. (oh the field was 5 min away from my apartment) However, yesterday I walked for about an hour. I went the same direction as last time to find out that there was another game going on. Since it wasn't so hot, I stayed till the end. No one won..it was a tie..1-1. After the game, ...

Hi Ya'll. I've been contemplating for quiet a while about what to write for my next log. A lotta things happened..or at least it felt like it. I've been in touch with my "childhood friend" (sorta), aaand I spent the night at my family-friend-cousin-not-really (? lol)... hmmm i guess that's sorta it. I guess it felt like a lot cuz a lot is on my mind and since I haven't gone out much except for Monday and Today (Thursday)..my mind thinks a lot has happend. hehe (Don't worry I'm not going coo-coo).  Before I rant on about what's been on this little brain of mine, I'd like to share a picture of me and my friend. Her name's...for confidentiality purpose, let's call her miss X. (teehee)... I've known her since I can remember because she was an international student from Europe. She stayed for a year and left back to her home country. However, we kept in touch (pen-pal status).  During high school, we both were unable to write to each...

Monday and Tuesday went buy quick...just like I wanted it to. I met up with my friend and her husband..we went out shopping at asian markets. There were a lot to choose from. They knew the location, so i just followed. ..I was talking about rice and food before...well check this out:  I went to an Asian market with some of my Tibetan friends... bought a rice cooker, siracha hot sauce, ramen, rice crackers,  dried sea weed.  The grapes are from another market...I also bought "Brown" rice, Basmati rice!!! yay!! I'm good for the next week or two.  Thanks for the suggestion Brother!! I'll officially be a rice woman! 

home sick??

Hallo.  I'm living well. Not eating out all the time. I'm living off of cereal, bread and water. lol Sounds so bad but it's actually not bad. I don't know if it's the change in climate or surroundings...but I have not been feeling hungry much. Don't have much of an appetite. I'm gonna guess it's homesick? but then i don't think so, since i don't miss my family much. lol I don't know.  I just re-read the previous paragraph and realized it is really bad to just live off of cereal, bread and water. What about fruits and vegetables? I did go to the market today and bought grapes..yay. but since I haven't been hungry..i don't get a lot of vegetables..unless i went out to eat. Don't worry ya'll..soon i'll be making vegetables and meat. It will be A-okay.  My brother recently suggested that I should buy a rice cooker, a bag of rice and be a rice-woman. lol That's not so bad compared to bread-woman. :) It's not a ba...

Trying to find a meaning

Earlier today, I was day dreaming in my room. I didn't want to go out nor did I want to do anything. So I just sat on my bed and closed my eyes (giving it rest from staring at the computer screen too long). When I closed my eyes, I saw a tunnel. A long, endless, abysmal tunnel. That's it. That's all I saw. Then, obviously the next thing I do is think why I saw that and find a meaning behind it. That's what I always do. I'm always trying to find a meaning behind everything instead of just letting it be. Maybe it has to be because I'm a girl? Or that it's just in the genes? (there I go again) I don't know. But I can't stop this...habit or hobby. haha...a hobby? When people tell you to live life to the fullest, does that mean.. to not analyze everything detail and let things go in a flow?

Traveling alone

There are good things and bad things about travelling alone. Let's start with the good side of it. Before I start..this list is not official, it's simply my opinion. Advantages: You get to go wherever you like.   "      "  "   do       "          "    "   . There's no pressure to rush things; you're in control of time. You're only spending on yourself. Disadvantages: (i can only think of one..^_^) It can get a bit lonely; you have no one to share your thoughts with. Obviously for the disadvantages, you can still go wherever you like because you will surely compromise with your company. You can still be in control of time as long as your partner/company has the same attitude as you. I'm here in Vienna. I like being alone but at the same time, i fear going outside.
