roses

i cant remember the last time someone gave me a rose or a bouqeout of roses. today i saw a guy giving a beautiful bouquet of roses to his friend or girlfriend i think. i actually felt sad, not that she is getting a bouquet of roses but just the thought that i dont have anyone who wants to give me roses. i know it sounds pathetic. but i cant deny how i feel. i almost started wishing that someone would think that i m special enough...but then i realise this feeling is not about the roses actually. it is just that i have been feeling lonely these few days. not sure how i m going to get rid of this feeling but at the moment it is in me...

taiwan...touch your heart


hi, today is my fifth day in taiwan. well being here without knowing mandarin is not that easy. however people r actually very nice. it is just that i cant communicate with them. they are eager to help me actually. well, i have noticed many things about this country. i visited Taipei 101 the other day. i took the taiwan high speed rail. well it was fast. i travelled about 300km in an hour and i guess the price was a bit expensive if you want to travel daily but given the distance and the speed i guess it was reasonable. it would have cost me more if i were to fly to taipei from taichung. I went to the Chiang Kai Shek Memorial Hall. His two cars were very impressive. Today I am going to another town near Taichung. It is suppose to be the old town. will get back from there and write about it...

WHITE HART LANE...

I guess of all the places that I have been too, this is the most memorable one...i have been supporting spurs since i was 17, so the thought of being at white hart lane was so exciting...when i got down at white hart lane train station, my heartbeat was going faster and faster and I was grinning all the way walking out of the station...i didnt know which direction to go, so i asked a guy at the bus stop there and he showed me the way and told me...u wont miss it...wow that was an amazing feeling...i was really excited... when i saw the stadium, i stood there just looking at it...took all the photos i wanted...something i will never forget in my life...

Barcelona...stole my heart...


Barcelona...a city that captured my heart...i have never really dreamed of going to Barcelona. I mean I have always thought of visiting many countries in Europe but never thought much of visiting Barcelona but somehow Barcelona stole my heart when I reached there. I stayed near Las Ramblas area. My hotel was like 2 minutes from Liceu metro station and it was near this area where there were so many florist...really beautiful...I was not sure how to get to my hotel, so I asked one florist who was standing there with one of the most beautiful bouquet I have ever seen. he was so sweet when he gave me the direction... i guess he stole my heart right way... then I went to the port area...wow...that was really nice...I had a chance to see the port from this tower that was near the port area. that was amazing...there were so many people there but somehow that didnt bother me. I really enjoyed spending time near the port. in fact i spent my my last evening in Europe at this area. I also took the cruise around Barcelona port where I met another very interesting and nice guy...had a wonderful conversation with him during the cruise...i also had the chance to visit Nou Camp...and took a photo there....

promises...promises


i know i have promised to write more often and obviously i didnt keep my word. anyway, i really thought that today i should write something about my trip to europe. well, the first city i visited was Rome. What was the first thing i noticed about Rome? well, the moment I was taking a train out of the airport.., the very first thing i noticed was the grafiti. grafiti, grafiti, grafiti everywhere. I have not travelled much but compared to the few places that I have been, Rome has the most grafitti.

generally, i enjoyed myself in Rome. the whole city was like a museum, there was so much to see and as I walking around Rome, I could almost imagine how it would have been during its glory...

after Rome i went to Vatican City...what can i say...it was amazing...every part of it was amazing...what can i say...my words would not do any justice to the 'greatness' of the place...

a rose is a rose...

i have been wanting to write about this for sometime...and finally today i m doing today.i took a bus from london to scotland. the driver was a very strict person and he repeatedly reminded everyone to wear their seat belt and warned them of many things. he seemed like a very serious person...it was a overnight bus and finally we arrived to our destination...guess what happened...he came up to my seat and gave me a rose...that was really sweet...

my car...my life...

i m rather upset today. I have been noticing that there is some problem with my car for the past one month...i have taken it to my mechanic twice but somehow everything that he did, didnt seem to be solving my problem. somehow this is really bothering me...as it is, i m always the only girl who shows up alone at my mechanic's place. mechanic, going to mechanic, discussing problems regarding cars are still dominated my men in my part of the world...i really hope something he does tomorrow will solve this problem...i really pray...

me...paranoid

i no it has been some time since i last wrote...many things have happened since and somehow i didnt feel like writing...today i thought i should write about what i m going through for the past two weeks...there is a problem that i m trying to solve but somehow i am not able to do it. it is so annoying and also so out of my control...i know that...but why does it bother me so much...why do i feel like i m very bad at handling things, why does everything related to this irritating me...i really wish i know the answer...i do hate what is happening...
