Forever & A Day

I'm am going to have a confession session with myself because I can't continue to lie about my feelings.

Confession 1: I'm not superly in need of a relationship, but surely I am aware it is on my list of wants. I want a relationship. I want to be loved. Homones stepping along the way? Maybe it's just me? I don't know. All I know is that when I come home, I should be looking forward to HP6. Wow. My first official one-on-one date with him. I haven't seen him for one year. Who am I to fool that I'm ridiculously in like with him?

Confession 2: It's been playing on my mind over and over again and again. Since HP always had some suspenseful parts within the movie, it gives me the opportunity to cuddle with him? Cheesy? I know. But don't you agree that's the perfect moment?

Confession 3: I regret not wanting to go to Vietnam. This was the perfect chance for a break from stressing all year long. I admit, sophomore year was the best so far ;D

Confession 4: Mood swings. I've been taking it out on certain people. I'm so mean.

Confession 5: I feel really left out. I feel like I've been MIA in CA. Everyone is having a killer summer while I'm stuck in another country, haha.

Confession 6: I'm actually liking the way I look now. I love the hair and anti-acne skin. I'm super thankful for that. Thank you God!

Confession 7: I don't want to come home. I have to put up with a new school year, school work, sports, clubs, family, and friends. Now that I'm over here, it doesn't seem so impressive as it used to sound.

Well, I don't know what else to confess except for the ones above. I can't wait to upload the limited pictures I took here, haha. Oh yeah. Another confession- I haven't taken much pictures ever since we've been here. It's okay. Lol. Until then, I'll see you when I get back. Peace!

A Memorable Summer

The distinction in between the two lives I live here in Vietnam and my life at home are somewhat similar, yet different in many ways. Since coming to Vietnam, I had realized how I love my mother more and more everyday. But I'll get to that later. I'm coming home in a week! How crazy is that? But there is a part of me that will always want to stay here longer.

The Positives:

-I have learn to love my family even more and that this vacation was something everyone dreaded to attend, but concluded as a positive therapy from the work we had suffered for years!

-I have grown closer to my cousins here because I would usually associate with the aunts that are proximate to my age. But after the deaths that had happened last year, things aren't quite as happy.. or the same.

-I got makeovers! Yeah, I know that's not really me, but for the first time in my life, I actually feel pretty. I love the compliments on my teeth, hair, nails, clothes, etc. I'm actually satisfied with myself that tomorrow, I'm going to have a photoshoot. I can't wait to see those pictures!

-I've learned that sitting at home doing nothing is just self pity in this town. I love how my great aunts and uncles yell at me for staying in the house all the time. Can you believe it? At home, my grandmother and mother yells at me for going out too much. But here is the total opposite! I love it!

-Being treated as a princess here is simply beautiful. Everybody waits by me and asks me if I want to eat or if I'm hungry etc. constantly. They take me out a lot. I have random shopping sprees, bingo nights [gambling style], and well, anything I ask for, I got it. My daddy knows how much I love to sing, so he bought me a karaoke machine. How amazing is that? Even though I know I can't sing whatsoever, my mother encourages me to sing even louder and with more passion.

Too lazy to continue. I'll rant on when I get back home ;D

Allergies

Today my aunt took my mother, grandmother, and I to a mini spa. My grandmother got a special massage while the rest of us got a head wash and massage. My massage was hella awesome. It made me melt! She massaged my temples and washed my hair like no other. It was to die for! However, the day was a mess. For the body massage, they sliced the cucumbers thin horozontally and put on some lotion on them too. If you know me well, I am allergic to scented face wash or lotion. Guess where they placed the cucumbers? On my face. I didn't fell the itchyness AFTER they took it off. When they took it off, it was disatrous. My face was like a swollen strawberry; bumpy, red, hot, and irritated. It even made my left eye swell up. It was terribly painful, intense, itchy, and dreadful. Everyone at the spa was staring at me when I left the building. My vision was blurry from my swollen eye, so I couldn't walk home. My aunt drove me home first and Mama told me to take two pills of Benedryl to stop it from swelling up anymore. She told me not to scratch because it'll take longer to heal and that it'll make it worse. Man, I couldn't even stand up right. After I took the pills, I took a nap for about 20 minutes and it was gone. My left eye is still partially swollen, but that's better than staying as a strawberry. Well, I'm kinda missing him today. Stupid Meebo and Aim Express won't work on me, so I couldn't talk to him. I left him a comment on Facebook saying that we should go watch Harry Potter when I come back home. Hopefully things will go well. Until next time, see yuhh!
