WOA! Honestly speaking April is the one of the most happening months I had in 2004! 😄 (Even the main event list is longer than what I had expected).

Somewhat it’s just funny to see my own words becoming self-prophecies. On April 9, I wrote “At this point, I have a nasty sense that some drama in my life is starting to unfold…”, guess I’m pretty right on that one, and apparently looking at it, it really an experience to me in many ways: from being a failure, to having great achievements, to having a emotional roller coaster ride… As much as I feel tired at times, but I’m really glad to have these experiences, it does gave me a chance to see that there’s much more things in life to do.

Then in April, I did notice that I brought up the insecurity issues quite a lot actually. Been thinking a lot of about the security issue, my personal identity, and probably my own relationship concept, and really I believe that I really raised quite a lot of good questions for myself to answer (Refer to the longer posts that I have posted up). During that time, my online life is much much more vibrant that it is in my real life actually. I wonder whether is this escapism? Hmm… But then nowadays I do miss chatting with some of my online pals (but then again, I personally can’t find much topics that I can chat about ^^”)

All in all, April is pretty much a really dynamic and dramatic month for me :). It’s fun to surf on the danger waves of life, but this time round I think I better be more prepared before hitting the waves again :p.
