All I want for X'mas

Seven days to go before Christmas day. How I wish Santa Claus would know my heart's desire. Although I made some of my lists here. It must be something sweet , big and soft! I just hope he can find something similar and send it to my house on Christmas eve.

Ho! Ho! Ho! I dreamt I heard him in my sleep floating in the stark blue sky, so happy and gay. It was a lovely night, carolers were there at my house making my sleep so merry as I keep on dreaming. Alas!! I heard him enter my house through the chimney walls so heavy with lots of things in his backpack and with a loud thud he slipped through it. That was Santa from my fairy world of books.

How I wish I'm still a child to live and dream of fairy tales especially when Christmas time arrives. Its nice to be a child where we often dream of happiness and no worries around us. Ho! Ho! Ho! there goes Santa Claus, I just hope its always Christmas time!! Tis is all I want......

If this is a painting

Whenever I see violets and purple colors it always reminds me of  Bora . A name that is so lovely as her looks,  nice and meek as her character.  Yoo Bora Kim...that was her name...a foreign student who had been my tutee six years ago.There was so much fun and vivid memories I could remember as we bond. She was just 4 years younger than I am.

If this is a painting, I will select all colors of violets and purple to paint you. Life indeed has been good to us because I have met you and its a memory I can't forget. Even without pictures, to refer to the scenes are always imprinted in my mind.

Bora, if you only you can read this... I have never forgotten you...

PS: Pls pass this to YOO Bora Kim if you know her, she lives in Seoul, Korea.





Perhaps now, she must have been married and have kids. 

A sense of direction

Its been a long time since I've written something on this site...though some people would label me as a seasoned writer... and I guess I am.

Right now, I'm inspired something about the life I'm leading to. Starting from where I have been and where I will be going. There are some things that are very important for me at the moment. For one, my paper in which I haven't started yet and whenever I write something it leads me to jump to another topic. Although I think it leads me to a direction. A direction that is still vague at this point.

Second, I come to realize that I love what I am doing right now because it gives me a sense of direction. Wherever this career will lead me to, I know I can always find time for myself no matter how stressful and tight the schedules are you'll still find time to reflect and weigh down how you have dealt problems.

Lastly, I haven't felt so alone and lonely eventhough I have been too far away from home. Mom always call in which she has always been supportive and understanding. The family keeps me strong and with this I found inner peace wherein I can say I have matured a bit.
