Today was Thursday. The second last day of IBSS. Basically I feel like the last day because it will just be a wrap up tomorrow (plus only half day). At this very moment, I feel void. The feeling of missing is immense. I mean after tomorrow, I will not (probably) be seeing those guys again. [...]

A Girl Called Autumn, Continued
April 23rd, 1997 No Comments
Autumn. Autumn. Autumn. What a nice name! Colin told me that she was with us in the Accent on C/S class and he may as well be right. Somehow, I vaguely remember such a person. In the morning, we had a group activity – Traffic Jam Problem. The problem is six of us lined up [...]

A Girl Called Autumn
April 22nd, 1997 No Comments

Looking Back on 1996
January 2nd, 1997 No Comments
As I have promised myself on the last day of 1996, I will review what I have done in the last year. And hopefully, I live a better life in the year 1997. As I was playing my guitar tonight, singing the song “Nobody Knows”, I remembered my days back in the US. Indeed, that [...]
