Sneak peek of Phuket visuals captured in film.
Didn't want to cave in to procrastinating this roll of film because it was just way too beautiful to put it here and I have so many more incoming visuals. I am most pleased with this roll of film thus far because the photos are way way wayyyy too stunning! It definitely was a pleasant surprise for myself when I plugged in my USB at the photo machine to check if my scans were in there. TOO BEAUTIFUL! Hopefully I have done some justice to how what my eyes captured during that trip.
Been meaning to type for awhile but there always seems to be something climbing up to the top of my to-do list & it has been a cray, very, very cray month.
FEBRUARY HAPPENINGS:
- Chinese New Year
- 24th Birthday
- Practicum & back-to-back Essays
- Getting confirmation on Vancouver (!)
Yes, never think that I would have the opportunity to fly to the other side of the world for a month's worth of Summer Programme! Wish I jotted the initial feeling and excitement when I first got the news because the process of settling and gaining information, miscomms from school, finances & now settling flights hasn't been the easiest and it's starting to take a toll. Travelling without your most comfortable people can be a really taxing thing. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy the company of the people I'll be heading there with but I know that we're not close to the extend of understanding each other's quirks and peeves which makes it a little scary. People say an overseas trip with whoever ya traveling with can either make or break a friendship/relationship. And that scares me. The friendship is progressing slowly and we're starting to really get to know one another but this month's worth trip is accelerating the 'getting-to-know-each-other' process a lil too quick. I only hope no friendships will be harm in the month and that everyone will take things in stride positively.
Has been a mentally taxing week for me & I'm just looking forward for alone time tomorrow night, stayover at Karin's on Fri and the weekend with Kai. It's really all that I ask for. Today has been a really odd day - might've hit the limit of my mental energy but also a day which I feel very loved by different groups of people and for that, I'm indeed very thankful. It's also the first time I broke down because of school matters and also in school.
My parents, who took time to research and check flights for me and are willing to spend a little more to ensure my safety and comfort. Kai, for checking in on me. Anna, for lending me a listening ear and comforting me. Aussy, Ashley & Ben for the very sweet gesture of getting me my fave avocado milkshake just because y'all happen to see my crying outside the study room. Y'all didn't have to but y'all did. Perhaps it meant nothing to do that, but to me, in that moment, I was too touch and lost for words. Thank y'all for showing me care in your own ways. It was a total shocker because we've not hung out for quite awhile and I thought our phase was over. But no, you guys still cared (': And lastly, Clara, for always pampering me, allowing me to really be me and embracing it all, widening my perspectives and for believing in me, always. When most people try to bring me down, you are one of the few who'll always believe in me and empower me to be better. I really am so so loved and I am indeed thankful.
