"I miss you"... sweet, huh? no other job can be this rewarding... you know that you've made a difference in ...

Do you wanna know why I love reading (especially biographies)? It's because I have the opportunity to leave what I have in this current life and escape into a different life... and I realise that life is so complex... everyone has different experiences, different approaches to life... and it makes us who we are - special and unique! Something I read in the book... it's something to think about :) "To find someone you really like is easy... but to find someone that truly loves you, for who you are, is not easy" - :) ahh... It's time I said "GoodNight"... 12am... and I'm still blogging :P Going to read the rest of my book before I snooze... mmm sweet dreams!! michelle xxx

You know what really makes me upset? is seeing people sad... if i had just one wish, it would be happiness for each and every person in this world okay, i know im not being realistic, call me a dreamer, silly, stupid, crazy... wotever! - but dont get carried away :P i know life is not always 'happy happy, joy joy' but life is about choices... we can choose to be who we are... what we want, how we behave etc... i know we have our rough days, i know that not everyday is perfect - but one thing for sure... we are given an opportunity to exist in this beautiful world.. an opportunity to live every single day to the max. No matter how tough the situation or problems that seem unsolveable... we need to take time to smile , breathe... remember the good things in life, the things that make us happy... choices in life? we can choose to smile ... i love smiling ... do you ever get the feeling that when you smile at ...

Romeo and Juliet - aahhh... i love Shakespeare...! ^^v reading his books at the moment... its great! :) The Chinese have their own tale of Romeo and Juliet and of course, it takes place thousands of years before Shakespeare was even born. This story of star-crossed lovers is set in the Jin Dynasty (265-420)!! Unlike Romeo and Juliet, the social prejudices of the time separated the two lovers, not a family feud. Like Romeo and Juliet, the “Butterfly Lovers” story has been made into a very famous concerto and also various incarnations in opera, movies, etc. The “Romeo” is Liang Shan Bo and the “Juliet” is Zhu Ying Tai, but these names are mixed in the song title and lyrics with their Shakespearean equivalents.

what if something is great, really is great... but its not as great as something greater? what should i do then? can you answer that one for me?! i guess it depends on the subject matter... do you believe it? that life can be such a mystery... one's life questions can be so difficult to answer sometimes... maybe i should write it down, take out a calculator, twitch my nose (that is.. if i can), work out sums that have an infinite answer... ahh... anyway, it doesnt matter how i work it out or how the world thinks i should answer questions cos i do believe in myself... im confident, im strong, im independent, and most importantly... im happy... just take life as it is... waiting for the next step in my life... cant wait! life is full of mysteries! i love suprises!! :) michelle xoxo
