It may be some food that can instantly bring tears to my eyes.
It may be a nice breezy afternoon with the wind brushing through my hair.
It may be some cheesy China Doll song, or some authentic Thai music.
It may be the barks of certain stray dogs...
to instantly teleport me back to Chiangmai.
I miss chiang mai so much.
I miss the carefree-ness, the smiles so much.
I miss having to worry about nothing.
I've a classmate who went to Chiangmai to be a teacher upon finishing her diploma. Reading her journey filled with classroom moments, voluntary sessions and the innocent, carefree lifestyle really inspired me to put everything down to pursue the same lifestyle...
Sometimes i really wish i could do something meaningful, something extraordinary, in my youth.
To give up the usual university or work route people take and commit yourself into community work and life in a total foreign country really takes a lot of courage, money... and many others.
If i could, i really wish i could travel around the world, learning and adapting into different culture and at the same time, contribute something back so at least i've put the best time of my life into good use.
Something that will perhaps, strengthen my attitude towards life, something that i won't regret.
Anyway i've been trying to pick up Thai online but it's been going NOT GOOD!
And my effort to maintain confident and heipi from a certain self-help book on how to be heipi seems to last for quite awhile.
Whereas the people around me seems to be falling sick or injuring themselves. HAHA!
Must really be more careful lately.
Speedy recovery to Fang, Yan, Kai, Cheryl ar.
Okie jiayou.
We're half a world away.
It may be a motorbike ride or the smell of petrol oil.
