I just realized why even how many times I’ve been to the Great Wall and even how really difficult it is to walk/climb on it, I’d still go back if and when given the opportunity. After reminiscing a very happy memory of something that happened over 2 decades ago, I was able to recall the details. I presented the Great Wall model we made for Asian History class and was tasked to share its story during the exhibit. It may be something I am unaware of before but since our experiences form part of our subconscious, then I suppose that moment, including all of the details, got buried deep in my mind and somehow influence my likings.
Actually 12/7/1999 isn’t really the highlight of what made it significant. It was only the beginning of a new learning for me. But the succeeding events probably wouldn’t have happened if it didn’t.
I am sincerely thankful for that day and for the crazy freshie who teased me non-stop that made me somehow turn what I was teased about become true later on. And of course I am ever grateful most especially to his companion who taught me things beyond books and allowing me to feel emotions I haven’t felt before then, all of which probably without him even knowing.
I may never really find out his true intentions for his actions after our first meet, but I would never trade that experience. I know and admit I’ve made some mistakes after and never really get to sincerely apologize about it. What I felt may just be in my imagination or my own interpretation of his actions, but I’d rather have it that way so I’d have a sweet souvenir of my High School years.
And most of all, am still thankful I get to converse with him occasionally even as friends only. I guess it’s true what the song lines say, first love never dies. It may not be the same level of affection like before but its remnants bring the same kind of feeling every time I walk down memory lane.

The Red Panda also known as Firefox is one of my favorite animals. It was love at first sight the moment my eyes laid on them. It was really an honour having been able to see such beauty in person.

“A Path to Self-discovery”
“He has a good eye for photography.” Heard it a few times from different people. A photo I took, supposedly two but one got cut probably because of the subject, was featured for a company calendar back in 2016 which was handed out to customers and partners around the globe. Back in college I was even asked by someone senior if I wanted to be a photo-journalist for the school paper.
Also in college, got really good grade for a class I could count in my hands the number of times I could recall attending. For the same class wherein we were required to write a speech cause of the lack of time required to read it out loud, I also got a high remark which contributed to my final grade. Another professor also thought I was taking a major in the same field he did probably because of my submitted write-ups. Years later, he told me that he considers me as an honorary major of the course. Then when I looked at my first submission for this site I realized what I wrote was not half-bad, though it was a proclamation of my inner feelings for someone.
When I was starting out in the corporate world, my trainer, who was a head of radio-broadcasting a few years back, even asked me if I wanted to become a DJ which I respectfully declined. Later on, I was even forced by someone to conduct a presentation for a client, though someone else was already assigned to do it, else he would personally talk to the company president if I don’t do it.
And now that I’ve got a lot of free time it made me contemplate on what I really want to be. As my brother recently said, “you got to earn your stripes back”. I believe what he meant was he wanted me to find myself and prove to myself I deserve a lot. Wherever that may be, I know there is one way and that is forward, whichever road I’ll take in this journey of life.
