I used to come to this one hiking ground often with my parents a LONG TIME ago. Back then, the waterfall was overflowing with water. Every year the water depletes but I like to come here because it’s a hiking location where my family frequented often.
After 15 years….the waterfall has become a steady trickle of water. So sad how something special begins to change…..
At least the leaves are still green and pretty. =)
As a child growing up, I moved a lot so there are no roots except for the house my grandma used to live in. Her house, while growing up, was probably the only consistent thing in my life.
One of things I value is the tree in the front yard. It’s not just a tree. It is a tree where the Min cousins grew up with. We played in the front yard and as we grew, the tree grew. I have a picture with that tree when it was just a delicate piece of wood but 25+ years later, it flourished into a beautiful tree….so the Min cousins decided to take another picture…….
But I’m sad to say that the house was put up for sale not long ago and it is currently in escrow. This tree will be sorely missed.
Paragliding: somewhere in Europe……
Stonehenge
Machu Picchu: take this picture and eat lunch on this spot
Pyramids in Egypt: I want to see the tombs and ride a camel as well
Brazil: Iguazu waterfall.
Rock Climbing: nothing extreme because I will surely die
and etc…and etc….and etc…..
Cookies baked by Mikako and given to me as a farewell gift. She made it just the way I like it…….=)
Table Top canister – signed by my old co-workers. Filled with encouraging words.
The Hunger Games – Just finished this and my fingers are itching for the remaining books.
Meet Theodore! Build a bear present from my sister for X-mas. Went through the whole building process together and stuck a heart in his chest!
Craving Veggie Egg Rolls!
I don’t like the fact that I’m tied down to one place 75% of my time. I wish I can win the lotto and roam the country in different seasons for years and years and years!
Currently, winter is occupying my mind and we all know California is not known for being a “winter city”.
I prefer….the Swiss alps or even beautiful Austria when it comes to beautiful wintry snow~~.
I’m stuck here in La County, but I’m thinking of you…..you random snow country…..somewhere out there where I can go explore the mountains and trees and meet the snow animals…^_^
It is a good day. After finishing up my errands and having a lunch date with a friend, I went home to read The Hunger Games. I purchased this book today……..and cannot wait till i finish it so I can read more~~~
I am snuggled up in bed drinking hot tea and reading to my hearts content!!
Today? Today = Good day
Freshly toasted chestnuts…YUM….I cannot wait for the beautiful winter season where I can snuggle up on the couch, pop some chestnuts, and watch a great movie. Then devour some freshly peeled pom poms for dessert.
And so the rant continues…….PART II
When I get angry, I can’t sleep at night. I toss and turn and then eventually turn on my computer and look at random pictures having to do with harvest hoping that it will calm me down. Fingers are being pointed in all sorts of directions while people are unable to handle awkward moments, they bring forth more awkwardness and eventually making you feel awkward and causing everyone else to be making assumptions.
Does this make me a bad person? It feels weird holding so much power……..I feel as though I can crush and bring things to pebbles. Is that the right thing to do? It angers me when I think about the past though. I know…I know….don’t let the past consume you but it’s eating me inside turning me into a rotten apple because it was so traumatizing.
My mouth is itching to blurt everything out and walking away without a scratch on myself, but am I willing to risk it? This power that I hold is…..overwhelming.
I mean, I simply did my responsibilities yet why do I feel like a sinner?! What is this guilt looming over my shoulders? Is that just a reason? An excuse so I don’t feel as bad?
BUT looking back, I realize I am not as ruthless as I thought I could potentially be. I was ready to create some havoc!! I still am, but now that I have the opportunity to do so, I’m scared and withering away in my shell wanting to escape to a field filled with prancing ponies.
I realize I’m pretty screwed up and will probably have to see a therapist to resolve this issue because I think I’m not really moving forward/progressing because I feel stuck….stuck in this tar of misery.
I’m angry because I should be happy! Goooooooowd, this thorn is plastered on my heart and it will not budge. These remnants of negativity is just…stuck around me.
Some people can be rather frustrating…….
I mean, if there is going to be a division, couldn’t you have at least picked a more devastating reason? The reason you have now is petty, childish, and seriously not worth it! I have seen worse……..but I guess you still live in High school…
You fool, just stay in your ignorant bubble because the world is a lot scarier and if you can’t handle this then you are obviously not ready for this sick world.
