to be honest, life has been such a trip for me. so many people today believe in a puzzle of questions that their life is boring. how boring can your life really be? if you put it on a paper, we have a lot of stories to tell about our life. that's why we have this journal or writings that we simply use to tell our story. an example is about our past. but do we really like to contemplate on that and put them on papers? we simply thought nobody would possibly want to read it.

i do believe that history repeats itself. whenever i spend my christmas holidays back in the philippines with my family, we usually sit and talk about the past. like how mom and dad met each other. there are a lot of stories that brings back memories about their times. if my parents thought about writing their life perhaps they are beautiful. or maybe they didn't write about their life because they didn't think their life was anything special. to hear them telling us the past, i'd thought their life was awesome.

i received an e-mail from our high school on line forum and one of our batch-mate who spent more of her time in canada showed us copies of our high school photos. to my horror, those old years has full of stories. i simpy couldn't remember 'i look like that' from what i am today. i was crying from laughing looking at myself with those pictures.

those times are the most exciting period in history. we live in a time with no less greatness. those times in the province where there are no cellphones, internet, DVD's and so much more. i still remember the time that whenever there's an urgent message for the family, we usually recieve them through telegrams and we over react to it as either somebody died or got an accident.

now we live in an age of internet, fiber optics and broadbands, space stations and weather satellites. we can e-mail someone to any parts of the world now by just sitting in our bedroom using our computer desk and have it arrived in light seconds. now this is reaching out and touching someone. we also live in a time when we only talk on the phone that weighs ounces, that we practically call anyone anywhere, while standing in an isolated place somewhere. we experience these hi-tech revolutions on a daily basis.

looking at those pictures, the experiences i have now didn't happen before. so i think, writing all about this is no nonesense. did you think this is someone's crazy idea that wouldn't amount to anything?

someday, our great grand-children will wonder the very same thing concerning ourselves or this online writings. it's always nice to tell your experiences and put them in paper and sooner or later, someone would really think this will be 'nice to know' of informations.

sheesh, i think i wrote longer today than i never used to.
