me myself and i

Last April 4 2007, I arrived from China. Though my China trip was planned out of the blue, it sure was hell of fun. I was able to spend some quality time with my mom. The cities that I visited were Shanghai and Beijing. The city of Shanghai was more commercial than that of Beijing. On the other hand, Beijing was more historical and political in nature. Although these 2 cities are believed to be in tight fight on which is the best, for me neither of them should hold title of the best city in China because each city stands out for its own uniqueness. After my vacation in China, my view of the said country has changed. Truly, a lot has changed from the China that I used to know. Ever since I was a child, the only thing that was stuck in my head was that CHINA IS DIRTY MOST ESPECIALLY THE COMFORT ROOM. This was what I believed for like 18 years? But then, now, all of those things have changed except for the fact that some of their comfort rooms still remained unchanged. However, in general, I can say that at present China has evolved into a nation capable of domination. Maybe that is why the Americans are afraid of them. As a Chinese, I am very proud of their achievements. I never did regret going to China because I have scene beautiful tourist spots like the underground tunnel and tower in Shanghai, great wall, forbidden city, tiananmen square and the ming tombs in Beijing. It was simply amazing how after almost 600 years, the Chinese government were able to maintain historical places as they were built centuries before. In fact, I just stood speechless looking at all the magnificent works of the ancient Chinese. With everything that I have seen in China, it got me more inspired to study and practice Mandarin as a language. Also, I was moved and motivated to study in China after college here in Manila. I hope I can. It would really be a great opportunity and asset for me when i work in the future. In a nutshell, though there are some things that I hate about China like the comfort rooms and some rude Chinese people,  I am proud and happy to be one and will always be.

Enough of my China trip. April 16 2007 was the first day of summer classes. Got to see my classmates and blockmates for my remaining years in UA&P. My block (SCL) is fine except for some people but I'm glad that I have some company like Illin, Lyn, Tam, Mika and Audrey. This summer I have 2 major subjects mainly Introduction to Communication and Business Presentations. Since this is the first time I am taking my majors, I was pretty nervous walking to my classroom. However, after a while, I got to the feeling of it and somehow getting used to it. I just hope I chose the right course.

It's exactly 6:06pm and currently listening to "From this moment on" by Shania Twain. Well, this song practically says that with someone's love another person's life has changed. Change. That is a part of life. Some things and people do change. As what all people all say, change is inevitable and I myself believe in that. It can occur in a split second or may take years to take effect. Just recently, many things has changed. I don't know if it's something good or bad. I guess it just struck me in the face. It was like I don't practically know him anymore. Yeah. True. In just a span of I think a month? It really made me sad plus the fact he does not share stories anymore=( A LOT HAS CHANGED. These things just makes me wonder...Wonder in the sense that just because he does not want to rant anymore means not sharing stories? *sigh* It's like all blank. Apart from him not sharing stories, I myself can't seem to get through him. Dami ko gusto ikwento pero hindi ko na alam paano ikwento... As what he told me just yesterday, ayaw na niya magrant sa buhay niya. Though we did not talk that often I believed him but it just made me really SAD=( because even though we became close for almost 2 years now, in just a split second many things have changed. But then, change is inevitable so even though I am not use to these things I have to deal with it. I hope I can immediately get used to it. God, please help me.

So much about myself today. *laughs* Anyway, I think that's all for now. I have to read a lot of stuffs for my majors. I rest my peace. *laughs*
