Roller Coaster Ride

Okies, it has been like ancient years ago that I put up some updates here. I almost forgot that I owned a blog. So many happenings around for the past weeks or months that I find it almost impossible to narrate it down in words. Life was such a roller-coaster the past weeks and I swear it was perhaps the most adrenalin-gushing ride that I ever been on. But, I'm still alive and kicking in Hong Kong, not to mention surviving :) So how was the roller-coaster ride like ?


First Stage - All the way down !
---------------------------------

As the name suggested , my emotions went all the way down hill. The amount of tears that I had in the past one month was perhaps the accumulated volume of tears that I would have in my normal entire year , or maybe several meter squares of dry land could be moistured up with that amount of volume. And I'm not talking about world-crumbling/heart-breaking break-up, or earth-shaking fights with your partner, rather something so special, genuine, and so true. It spells FRIENDSHIP. When I first got to know this special group of friends, I know it wouldn't be long and it would come to an end in 2 or 3 months time when they started to leave. What I didn't know was that I would grow so much of emotions and bonding with them that it literally hurts so much when bidding farewell to every single of them. Especially all of these happenings took place in a foreign land. We denifinitely swept over Hong Kong under our feets in just 3 months time. And yasmin, I'm still taking this town over with my GIANT head :)


Second Stage - Surviving Skills
--------------------------------

I picked up fast ! After some heart-breaking farewells, we decided to get thing going and moving. And we went to this hidden paradise in Hong Kong - Tai Long Wan. A beach so secluded and heavenly that it took us approximately 6 hours to get there. Couple hours of bus and taxi ride , another hour and half of trekking. oh well , yes Cerille, paradise in Hong Kong needs a lot of efforts to reach... too bad :) But it was worth the efforts. No one else was in the beach except us , US ! We claimed the beach all by ourself !

Third Stage - Back on track !
-----------------------------

I got myself back after a little while. Life is getting back on track for me and I will be taking it slow and sipping it slow like on the red wine. I start to have more time of my own to make my own plans and take charge of my life a little. I'm moving forwards and looking forwards to something good happening ... a whole new experience and beginning awaiting me ahead :)
