Dear Diaries,

Thanks for the precious memories :)

I was doing packing & found my diaries from secondary school & college days...

Then I spent those time that's supposed to be used on packing in reading journals.

I used to feel lonely & unwanted as almost all the girls around me were attached then. I'd many crushes before but none was reciprocated. I asked so many 'Whys' & thought very lowly of myself.

Could still recall the innocence & dejectedness in me as I read. Studying could be boring or stressful then & the most enjoyable time gotta be looking out for, then eventually seeing my target of infatuation, be it for just 1 second but I could spend the whole day trying to analyse if he'd noticed me & decipher his body language.

There're so many incidents I've long forgotten & thanks to the diaries, my mind was once again refreshed.

I thank the Lord as I now have everything that I've previously yearned for, & even much bountiful than I could have asked.......
- I used to think that I was such an awful person that no guy would like me. But now, I'm so loved & pampered in a princessly way by a wonderful man whom I call hubby.
- I used to be so deprived of material comforts as we're poor & going out with classmates was usually difficult as I'd no money to splurge.. so needless to talk about vacation.Now, though we're not rich, I lack nothing & have been blessed with holidays with hubby, so far, to France, Korea, Australia, Thailand, Vietnam, Indonesia, Malaysia.... & there're still many many countries we plan to visit in the future!
- I used to be a timid gal who's very homebound & completely reliant on my family; I'd not taken a flight before till I was 21 & that's going to KL for work.But when I've grown up, due to work, I was trained to be independent as I'd to travel All Alone bi-monthly mainly to ASEAN countries (France, HK, China, Taiwan at times).

Very easily, we take the things we're enjoying now for granted. But those that we call basics now could have been our fantasies many years ago.

So I'll continue to keep these diaries well. They serve as an encouragement & reminder for me :)
