people: the many maids i interviewed, executive director from the ngo helping migrant workers, work interviewees, cedarpoint colleagues and friends, 1201 housemates, the many hospitable people during WAT, and weird people.
completing most of the rides at cedarpoint, i cant believe i went on millennium force.
elephant ears, corn dogs, ben n jerrys, walmart, meijers for white, wide, endless, spacious aisles of grocery shopping
getting drunk on magharita and finding comfort on a loaf of very soft bread
the wonderful cheesecake factory, chicago pizza, cereal, healthy option varieties
taiwan night markets
joining a gym and still very happy to be part of one
finding a job
not getting what i thought i can get
disappointed, demoralised
but with this job now
still trying to look on the bright side.

2009

to count my blessings
to lead a healthy lifestyle
to be more patient, and to be less of a hermit, out of that comfort zone
to not lose myself essentially
it can only get better
