Wooooooots!!! My current location is Taipei, Taiwan, and I am sitting on my bunk bed and writing this at such a timing (it is normal when I am awake because I have yet to sleep but absolutely abnormal if I am actually awake because I am done sleeping). Truth is, I had to wake up bathe; it was a complete knock-out for me the moment we got back to our accomodation last night- after nearly an entire day of walking and running and carrying of luggages around. It has been a crazy week- and I am absolutely loving it.

This is definitely what I have been needing. A good break, not only from school but from everything. I have lost myself a few times, letting my guard slip every now and then, and this trip has let me re-discover and re-understand the core of my being- I am still who I had often wished I still am. :) I probably have to thank Morgan and Nana for this because if it wasn't for them, not only would the trip have been impossible, I would not have been able to get myself back. Because we all are such different people, and such distinct differences at that, the points of our personalities have been highlighted. And you know what kind of person I am- I spent quite some time looking at them, trying to understand. But yeah, be it good or bad, all thanks to them, I have renewed confidence in myself again! I do believe, too, that I just needed to get away from the place that has succesfully brainwashed me into molding myself into an unrecognizable me- all because of wanting to fit in, to meet expectations.

But yes, I am all good now, as good as new and ready to go again! Forgetting fitting in and meeting expectations- I was born to be me and I am not going to defy this order. :) Who cares if I am silly, or take longer than usual to understand certain things, or am just not good at manging? I am who I and if I never talked down to you for the person that you are (trust me, I think that too many people around me are either too serious or too critical about even the smallest things, or simply too fast-paced and think they are rigjt being so), honestly, what gives you the right to judge me for being who I am?

Hmm.. I think I want to catch a few winks in order to last the entire day of walking again. LOL. I am really enjoying myself in Taiwan- such a beautiful place and with equally beautiful people- and I don't really want to go back to Singapore... T_T No worries, I will definitely return!

CHEERS!!! :Dv
