I Love Today

Today is my day. My day is today. My birthday was last week, so today is not my birthday again, OBVIOUSLY. It's not my wedding day either. Aiiya, my significant other hasn't even born yet. Why do we have to reach to that conclusion? Impossible! Haha! Then what makes it so special? Well, I haven't felt this for quite sometimes already and I so miss it and it is finally back today and I do hope it'll last forever or at least a bit longer. I do wish it's still here with me when I wake up tomorrow. My winter breeze! The last time I felt you was in June, Shanghai, China. Now you're here with me. Love ya!


I was complaining about the thunder and raining last night because I couldn't get my work done. Thunder and lightning is pretty fierce here in Cambodia. If you love you life, avoid using electronic stuffs when it's raining here especially, when you can hear the thunder roars. Also, avoid being romantic by standing or running in the middle of the field while it's raining. Save it for other times when you aren't in Cambodia. I'm not kidding. There are over hundreds cases about people dying because of lightning strikes already. So please don't submit your name to the victim list. I think I had a post about this once already. Treat this as a reminder then! Okay, back to our topic. I went to sleep so early last night since I couldn't do anything anyway. I could read books, but I didn't. Internet spoils me. And I woke up this morning with a WOW feeling. Oh my goodness! Winter is here? Even though there's no snow or anything, but I've been craving for this kind of temperature for a very long time. It's about 23 degree inside and around 20 degree outside. Awesome! I wish it would get colder, though. The heat was dominant for almost the whole year and I hate it to the core. So now I hope I can wear all my hoodies. I have so many of them stored in my closets. I haven't touched them since I came back. Actually, I know I could sweat wearing them because I'm not cold at all (I'm so okay with it still), but if I don't wear it now, when else can I wear them?

Hopefully, it will be here at least until the end of 2010. Will you? Oh please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I beg you!

Rain and Thunder

I don't mean to disappoint you or something, but NO! No, I'm not talking about these two guys. I want to talk about those natural thingy here. The advantages and disadvantages of them, to be exact. It's been raining like crazy these last few days. It rains everyday. I "heard" (I use 'heard' because I'm stuck at home, it's as simple as that, don't ask!) it's flooding almost everywhere. It reminds me of my old days. I used to be happy whenever it rained especially, those periods before I entered college. Why? Because my schools would be flooding if it rained heavily or nonstop for a few days. And flooding here means no school. Hehe

Things changed when I entered college. There's no such thing as flooding you could use as an excuse to skip classes. It would never happen unless Noah's era comes back. My college is located in a mountainous area. So no matter how heavy or frequent the rain came, flooding was never meant to be there. Poor me!

How about now? I'm home. Yes, I'm home!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And my home is high. And my Chinese class is at home, too. So there's no flooding to look forward to anymore. Strangely, I've come to dislike it for some reason. Well, I guess I really dislike it now until I can make a list of advantages and disadvantages of it. Let's start with advantages first so that I can feel the hype and finish my post. Note: These advantages and disadvantages can happen only when rain, thunder, and lightning come together. If rain comes alone everything will be as usual.

Advantages:

- Able to finish my assignments early

- Able to read my books

- Able to sleep early

- Able to lose more weight

Disadvantages:

- No computer

- No internet

- No Facebook

- No Twitter

- No blogs

- No TV

- No phone

- No music

- No LIFE!

9 disadvantages and 4 advantages. Not bad! Haha

By the way, for those who aren't living in Cambodia, you may have some questions in mind to why I can't do everything listed under Disadvantages. Well, everything started a few years ago if I'm not wrong. Lightning has become fiercer and fiercer to a point when you can't use electrical devices while it's raining otherwise you'll be likely to reach a point of no return. You can't stand in the middle of the field or play soccer/etc. in the field while it's raining. You can't use sharp things like knife while it's raining. You can't stand/sit/sleep under the trees outside your house while it's raining. I hope you can understand what I mean here. And I'm not kidding. We have like over a hundred case already reporting of people dying from the lightning strikes. Oh yeah, that includes your animals and pets, too. So watch out!

I think that's all for tonight. Guess I can't read my books now. It's 11:55pm already.

So good night everyone!
