The Inner Me

This could be a very new experience for me as I'm not that type of people to share too much about myself most of the time. However, it might be because of the age or the life experience I got so far, I want to be more open to myself, which means releasing the inner me so that I can express how I really feel directly instead of wearing a mask to cover up the true "ME".

Therefore, I decided to go into a relationship where I can see the inner me trying to come up to take over the other "ME" cultivated by the family, education system, work and society. Yes, I'm officially attached and this could also be the first time for me to announce it this way.

We actually have known each other since my high school time. However, we were in totally different fields as I'm in business and he was into music at that time already. Yap, a MUSICIAN!! What a surprise, isn't it?! However, I think that could be the major reason actually as he is so true, real and direct in terms of expressing himself which is totally different from me. So I can see myself changing to face the real me and start to find this little girl adorable.

I visited Taichung last weekend as he lives there actually but travels up and down for classes and performances. We drove down on Sat and had the delicious meal at the town nearby Taichung. I always prefer this kind of local food than restaurant as it made me feel so real.

Then we went to Taiwan Banana New Paradise which is an interesting dining place with the decoration like Taiwan back in early 1900. The food is nice and the fruit tea is fantastically great.

Then on Sun afternoon, we went to a nice cafe to enjoy the nice weather, breeze and cafe at Taichung. I always find Taichung very comfortable in terms of weather and the pace. It's always sunny without so much raining like Taipei. The pace there is just slower and seems everyone is enjoying their life.

Actually, I can see the challenges ahead because of the different personality, work nature and my family in particular my responsibility for my parents. However, what really brought me these fresh thinking is also because of the difference. We can only put all our efforts to work the things out and NEVER TRY NEVER KNOW.

Ha~~ Would try to post in both English and Chinese depending on the topics and contents I guess. Sometimes, it's just easier to write in one language.

Michael!! Would you be back during Summer? It's almost one year from our last gathering.
