A Sweet Dream Only for One Night

It seemed a dream to me and only for one night. Meeting an old Friend on this Monday that I never ever, ever, ever expect this was a sweet experience.

Only a drink and a drive, these were the sweetest things like I was been spoiled or pampered. I was shocked and guilty that I did not believe that I deserved these treating. The reason is maybe that I am going to leave Taiwan, study abroad for 1 year, and it is just a hospitable treat by a good, old friend who want to say goodbye.

He is a old friend who haven't meet for 2 years . It is the desire that want to see him again encouraged me to ask for a short talking and meeting. I didn't regard it as a date. I did understand we are friends. Yeah, this is an alarm or a principle that reminds me to be sensible. Keeping me to be a good girl.

The talking lasted for hours. Most of them are just funny things and experiences in school life. I tried not to see my watch and ignored the time. Sometimes, I was so childish to ask silly questions such as how to wash clothes that I regrated to ask him. Sometimes, I felt strange that he always knew what I was going to say. He is mature and independent. A good friend at the same age as me and a mentor to be.

Maybe it was because we haven't meet for months that it needed time to update and knew each other's life. It was a good and happy time. I felt so sad after the time was over. Nevertheless, I am so glad that I am going to Europe next month. If I did not become an exchange student, there might never be a chance to meet him again.

Dream is always temporary and could only exist in memory. But I will make through it. I will stay strong and be tougher. I am not a princess but a tough girl.

Fountain is always a unique place for me where I always could think of him.

This month seemed so hard to get through for me. Time went so slowly. I worked hard and tried to be busy and exhausted in order not to make me feel the time went so slowly. I can not believe I will be exchange student and study in Europe next month for 1 year.

August seems never would come. I still can not believe I am going to explore a new world. growing , learning, listening, meeting new friends.

All in all, what I need in this moment is traveling. Learning new things and experiences.
Stay strong. living and laughing at the moment.

Why Netherlands?

my friends or some people who I am not famililar ask me why do you go to Netherlands?

Recenetly, I found an answer to it.

It was when I was a child, I thought another name of Holland is called "Neverland".
Yes. "Neverland" is actually a place from a stroy of Peter Pan.
I used to believe that Peter Pan lives in this country when I was a kid.
Someday, I wish I can visit this country and see Peter Pan.

As time goes by, I grew up , and my English is getting better and better. Certainly, I realized Holland is also called "Netherlands" in stead of the fantacy name "Neverland".

However, the desire that go to Holland someday still exists in my mind. I decided to apply the exchange program to RuG, University of Groningen.

what do you think about this story?

I felt self-loathing

I felt self-loathing....
Becuse I made myself very busy and exhausted everyday.

The more I felt self-loathing, the less I felt hopeful.
Maybe the main problem is I do not concentrate the core of lives but is annoied by trivials.
geez...

All in all, I wish August could come faster...
