Feels like half an eternity since I’ve blogged. Part of that statement is true, while the “half the eternity” isn’t…since I don’t think anyone can rationally tell me what the hell “half an eternity” is. But a lot of things happened, hell of a lot, so…allow me to make a quick runthrough of what those things are.
Firstly, and the most important, I broke up with my fiance. It was a long way coming and doubts have surfaced as early as October. They say once you start seeing only the bad things of someone, it’s time to end it. And so, I have. It still hurts, but do I miss him? If I said, no, would you think any worse of me? Because I don’t. It hurts because I think we could’ve stayed friends but me + exes do not equal fun. I’ve tried and it was painful as hell and we hated each other more than if we’d just ended it amiably and never saw/talked to each other again. Anyways, that’s that. I’m not going to rehash our problems here, but there were a lot and one so unforgiveable that I had to call it quits.
Enough about that.
It might be too early to say anything too in depth, but I’ve met someone who makes me feel good. I know. Too soon? Nah, not in Korea, where people go dating as soon as they break up to forget their previous partner. Some may view it as callous, but come on, I don’t want to mope and cry. It’s sentimental and I don’t have time for that crap.
So, he’s a middle school teacher and he’s great. Great sense of humor, doesn’t sing just to annoy me, doesn’t act like a child. He’s a breath of fresh air and I aim to enjoy it as much as I can. Now, I don’t even care about the future and wondering what’ll happen if he leaves. Who cares? Let’s have fun!
We went snowboarding on Friday, the few pics of which you can see here. Notice the lack of faces…it was really, really cold. We’re going to go again at the end of this month, this time with some other friends, and it’s going to be a blast. Okay, okay, I’m going to quit talking about him.
Writing-wise, I’ve been taking a break, and it’s great. I don’t have to pressure myself to get a couple of thousand words a day, because hey, I’m not going to write! Although, now I do have to face reality and tell myself that it’s been a great three weeks, but I really must write. Which is something I’ll be doing once I finish with this blog entry.
So…with no further ado…
Tally ho!

Uh, too bad you broke up with NB, but the rationale about it is valid: too much of a bad thing makes your life bitter… so, I feel ya about it. …But I thought I had a chance to escape, since my actual friend is leaving town for good… because I thought for a moment I might fly to Seoul, meet you at a Starbucks, and sit down for a coffee and a talk, share broken hearted memories, but then I guess you’re not in for it. ^_~ . Let’s move onto the positive side of things.
BTW, Aren’t bandanas worn rather like playing “blind man’s bluff”?
my two cents of streetwise knowledge!
