Kuwaiti Chopper Dude !!

My Last Blog For You I can't believe I'm reading this.. I can't believe this is it!!!
I have always been a good reader of your posts. It's just so hard to believe!!
But I guess it's over..
I just wanna thank you for all your interesting posts and tremendous stories that you have presented the blog-o-sphere. It is a shame that we are losing such an amazing blogger, but you'll always be with us through your blog.
You're gonna be missed!
I hope 2007 will be a better year filled with love and happiness.
Best of luck to you ;*
Happy New Year! Well, it's seems you've made your decision, although you know, you can always come back...

I hope you will remain lurking in the background commenting on blogs...

Happy new year! Did you know that the post entitled 'post-it-adventures' was the post that introduced me to the world of blogs? I mean I knew there was something on the web called blogs but had never actually read one. Your topic on that post became the topic of our lunch break conversation at work that day. I even forwarded the link to a couple of my friends. So thanks Chopper Dude for beginning a new chapter in my life :)

And I wish the new chapter in your life is filled with magical moments Deep down inside I knew this day was coming. I could see it written in the sand when we spoke about your block a few months back. I tried to tell myself that it was just a phase but from the sound of your tone I could tell it wasn’t. You leave behind a fantastic body of work for newbies to discover and for oldsters to re-discover, not a bad legacy in terms of blogging if you ask me. I’ll miss your bfmp posts because as you well know those were my favorites! So for now give that keyboard a well deserved rest who knows maybe you’ll be back, maybe one day the desire to write and share will return after all 2007 is going to be a wonderful year for us all full of fantastic adventures, friendships, music etc... In the meantime I guess we’ll just have a good read with with your past posts.

Feliz ano nuevo! WHAT!!!!! DOOOOOOOOOOON!!!

who said you can? who said so?

you are not even allowed to leave,, no common, don't start 07 by leaving us behind your back !!

No la7tha, allah bil kheer.. why ?

I've never felt a broken heart pain.. now my heart is broken .

Ay Amigo te extrnaremos muchas don, mucho grande.. Oh no my heart is broken! Have a great life, you will be missed! Don.
Your blog is probably the first one I stumbled on, and definitely one of my favorites (even though I rarely comment). I wish there were more people like u in Kuwait. So sad to see you leave :(
Good luck, and I hope 2007 brings u happiness & love. First of all, happy new year Don.
It is sad to have to start it this way, but it's of course your prerogative as you're the best qualified to judge the right time for it all to end.
I am grateful you started doing it in the first place, since otherwise I would've never found your whereabouts.

Be good, amigo, and see you around!
Drop me a line if you ever come back to Sunny Florida! BTW I was stunned yesterday but today I want to say that I hope the next chapter of you life is full of happiness and love. You deserve it dude. If you ever see a redhead wandering around the Kuwaiti stock exchange carrying a sign with "Don" on it please come out and say Hi, it might just be me. :) Do you know that your blog is the only blog i still visit after 2 years! Please dont leave :....( Dear Don,
I hope this is year will be happier and full of love for you.
I haven't been by in a while but your name flashed in my mind last night and I smiled remembering what a good sport you were when you participated in the first Dear Jewaira post.
Who did you kiss on New Year's Eve? :P

I wish you were not quitting blogging because you are one of the few original Kuwaiti bloggers and you are part of very fond memories.

You are right: you have many memorable posts and I do hope that you will still be around with us even if you choose not to write (for a while).

We love you and hope that you will not be far away.

Wishing you all the best of love and happiness in your new life. Keeping our fingers crossed that your mojo is around the corner.It's going to be a lost not have to read some of your incredible post. With that we are not saying goodbye but read you later :) We keeping hope alive! Happy New Year! I’m so sorry for not replying promptly, but I am having some internet difficulties at home, and I have no internet connection, even the submission of this last post was done by a friend of mine..

Nunu, my dear dear friend, I want to thank you for all your sweet words.. thanks a lot and happy new year :)

Q8sultana, yes my dear, I made this decision after a long time of thinking, I think my turn has come to an end, and I should be on my way to something new.. and I will definitely be lurking around.. :)

Magical Droplets, oh my goodness, your words had moved me so much, I am the happiest man to have that effect on people, and it’s such an honor to have been the first blog to read, and the inspiration to start your own.. thank you for your note.. it made a difference.. :)

Mia ia ia, I knew you would have a gut feeling that this was coming, hehehe.. I’ll call you soon dear.

Nooni, no my dear, this entry is not to break anyone’s heart, it was coming, sooner or later.. and I think the time is right.. I hate to neglect my blog, and for the past few months it was slipping and getting deserted, and the reason behind it was me not being able to write anything.. so it was inevitable. This is not a goodbye in anyways, cos I will be here, just without me writing in here..

Enigma, that is soooo sweet of you.. I am sure there are people like me and better than I am as well.. you just have to give them a chance to express how they feel :), I promise you.. I ain’t leaving.. I will be here commenting and reading blogs as always..

M of LM, you my friend is a different story, a real friend that life made us apart and blogs made us reunite.. hehehehe.. that is the best surprise ever by the way. Please bro, keep coming back, and take of that hat that you always wear for once.. lol

My sweet Harley buddy Chris , I never meant to hurt anyone nor to shock you, well.. maybe shock you a little. Lolol.. you know me.. :P

I will leave my eyes open for red heads from now on.. I usually do for blondes.. but I’ll include redheads. Lol

J, my bestest omani friend.. thank you for always coming back.. you are the sweetest. :*

Lady Jewaira, I will never forget that first dear Jewaira entry.. lol such great memories.. I used to go around almost all the Kuwaiti blogs in an hour of reading.. and look at us today.. thousands of new comers.. I’m sure many are exquisite, but unfortunately, there is no time in a day to finish them all like we used to do for old skoolers..

Sweet heart, I will not go anywhere, I’ll be here.. I’ll read and read and read some more.. and will be around your blogs for sure.. it’s just that I think it’s over for me.. :)

Diamond, no sweetie, it’s not a mojo thing anymore.. I thought it was.. and I waited and waited.. but it’s not that at all.. when I took the decision to pull the plug I made sure that every inch of me is agreeing.. and yes.. it’s the end of my blog, but not the end of my creativity, I will find something new to do and have great adventures.. I don’t want to disappoint you, but it’s really over.. and it’s not going to be otherwise.. :P

Happy new year to you too.. :* This I was not expecting but whatever makes you happy. You will always be missed. I always enjoyed reading this place and will keep hoping you come back sometime. Happy New year ;*
All the best wishes How sad that you will not blog any longer Don. You will be missed. The Don is closing shop! It's hard to believe, you were one of the original Kuwaiti bloggers with a head start on me :) I didn't always comment, but I always visited whenever I had a chance. Yours was one of the very few Kuwaiti blogs I still did.

But I understand how you must feel. Life changes. And those changes have their own inertia, as they propel you onto paths that can be wonderful since they make you grow into someone better than you previously were. When something positive opens itself to take you somewhere other than where you are now, it is not that you are abandoning what and where you previously were, but rather are moving on to what is more developed and better for you beyond it. And that, in a nutshell, is how you grow.

May this be what is happening to you. Here's wishing you the security and great comfort of a great love from one great person meant for you. Here's wishing you happiness, success, peace of mind, joy in the little things, and deep satisfaction from all the gifts that life may offer you.

Take care and don't be a stranger :)

Ms. Baker Shame..Darn shame.
It's a shame we lose a great blogger. It's a shame your list isn't gona grow. It's a shame you're going away. It's just a shame!! First of all I respect your wish & hope you are happy at all times here or there :)

You will be missed, a lot dear, although I haven't been active online lately, still your blog is a favorite for me as ever :) I met a great person, big heart and a wonderful hard worker :D

You touched my life in ways you may not realize but your touches were sweet & positive, thank you for everything thank you for being you :)

You will be missed, and always welcome to say that all of this is just a phase & you'll be back or even not you will stay our dear The Don :}

Be well you've been fun to have around, hope you have a great new year and years to come, and happy everything else since it seems like it's the last time I can wish it =}

Have a happy life Don =} Dear Don,
I've seen your post on the first day, and until now I don't know what to say.
Perhaps I've been waiting for this special inspirational moment that can trigger some words in me that I can write to you.
Nevertheless, apparently I am failing, probably it's another writer’s block down the block.
2 years or even more was actually a quite long period and it needed a lot of patience and dedication, which of course you had, and you've successfully managed an amazing blog with lovely readers. Good Job ☺

I wish you a simple & smooth life.
I wish you a woman's lips that roses shy away from.
I wish you Happiness that we human's disbelieved in it's existence.
I wish you all the beautiful things in life, the beauty of love, passion, health, family, and harmony.
I wish you all the things you've thought within yourself and never shared with a soul.

Thank you for being one of the first blog’s I’ve read on the blog’o’sphere.
And thank you for being The Don

Love
Mystique Dear Don

That’s very very very sad. I wish you said you are taking a break. You were defiantly original and honest. As I was reading thios post I remembered your post “100 things abt me “ that was a break through post.

Thanks for the memories and don’t be a stranger

Happy belated New Year and wish you all the best

Your friend

Mosan NOOO! :( i love ur blog..

i'm gonna miss u!

(hope u change ur mind.. and melt that block..) No you're not
انردك ببيت الطاعة ... im definatly a religoius silent blogger thats been telling thereselves there gonna own a blog soon but never does for some reason...your blog was great ..keeps u interested..anyway happy new years ..hope yours start with a good vibe I keep stopping in and hoping you changed your mind. :( Shoppy, Thank you sweetie.. please.. don’t be a stranger..

Ms. Baker, do you remember when I used to tease you and tell you that you always write a long comment, that you write a whole post in the comment section? lol.. I miss those days.. those days were so much fun.. I have always enjoyed every word you've written, and I will keep coming to read your words.. and your long comments.. :P

Phoenix, sweet Phoenix, thank you for your kind words.. I am sure many are amazing.. and more are coming with time..

Q80- C.G, you are one of the first I got to meet on the blog o’sphere, I will always appreciate our friendship.. it means the world to me.. :)

Oh, and I don’t think it’s a phase sweetie.. I know many did that and came back.. but I made my decision.. :)

Sponty, thank you so much.. :)

Mystique, all these wishes, I wish them back to you, thank you so much for your great self.. thank you so much..

My dear Mosan, yes.. that 100 things about me post was a break through indeed, I made lots of friends and lots of judgmental enemies from that post.. lol If I do a new one, I can say that many things had changed in it.. happy new year to you too, may this year be the best year for you.. I know it will be for me..

Kuwaiti Femme, thank you, and I will be around as I promised, you won’t miss me, but I think it’s not a block sweetie.. so no melting.. :(

Papps, hehehe.. I’m a man, that 6a3a place won’t work for me.. :P

aldara, :*

Exfactor, thank you so much.. you won’t regret it, those people are amazing.. you should start your blog..

Chris, I am so sorry to disappoint you.. but it’s the real deal.. no mind change in the horizon.. :( Never say you'd never post again..
Maybe you're just trying too hard to force it that it's more of an "obligation" rather than an enjoyment. You never know when someday out of the blue you might have something amazing to write :)

It always works that way for me and art, i gave it up YEARS ago, and I gave up the hope of drawing regularly, but every once in a while I get this urge to do so, and when I do, it turns out to be one of my better works.

I really hope one day I'd see a new post. Yours is the first blog I read, and one of the very few I check everytime I'm online. Personally I think it's one of the best out there; your personality and character stand out as one of the most unique, your writing style is captivating and your ideas are mind blowing.

I'm not saying I'm expecting anything, but for the sake of "maybe" and "hopefully", I'll still be checking your blog everytime I'm online.

Happy New Year; hope this one would be one of your best :) That's ok I'll just keep checking just incase. I do hope whatever it is that makes you want to stop blogging makes you happy. If things don't work out know that you still can come back and no one will worry that you said you were done. :) hehehe.. Chris, :** LOL Christina, you are really great :) Just an inimitable, warm and graceful lady who is always a comfort :)

Ms.B who knows you know that both of us at DW are your fans... dishevelled, I never said never sweetie. it shouldn't give hope to anyone, but life taught me never say never.. :*

Ms. Baker, I know.. :** Don's fans, say NOOOO to Don here !CLICK! Flamin, you are sooo cute.. :***** God, please make him change his mind, pleeeeeeeeease. oops! that was the results link!!

cast your votes here! CLICK! *sigh* snif snif :( Still checking.

Thanks, MsB. I love DW too. :) Don! What are you doing????? This is Kerri, from the old "I DREAM OF CHOPPERS" blog. I can't believe that I'm finally blogging again and now, you're leaving??? The world won't be the same. And your site looks AWESOME. I know, you're gonna take a break....keep us all guessing, then announce your comeback UFC-Fighter style! Remember though....I KNOW YOUR REAL NAME! Muuuuaaaaahhhh hahahahaa. Chris, sorry hun.. :(

Kerri.. looooooooooooooool.. yes you do.. yes you do.. :PP Don't be sorry just come back when you are ready. ;) Your real name isn't such a secret but since I did promise to keep it to myself....Just don't be a stranger and atleast tell us a little bit about "her" or atleast when the wedding is. I still have hope....
Miss you! Do you miss us? Chris!! Wedding??!! Hehehe.. easy now.. no weddings on site

Shoppy, Well, I missed the fact that people used to come over here more often, but I am still here, and still around the blog o’sphere, so don’t worry.. you won’t miss me that much, cos I’ll drop by when ever I get the chance.. ;) OK so no Wedding YET but you didn't deny "her", did you? LOL :D :D :D! You're in denial and you know you wanna post again...admit it ;P
la etkhaf ma ra7 ingool he couldn't do it :P Happy Valentines Day! Hopwe you had a wonderful one. :D Miss you! chris, miss you back.. :* I still miss you more! I love you and miss you too.. you are the only one that still comes back and visits.. this place is so dusty.. :P Force of habit. I've stopped here everyday for so long that I still have to check every now and then to see if maybe you showed back up. *peeks*

Hey :) EniGma, no peeking.. lol..

Please come in, sit down, and have a drink.. :) Still miss you. Hope everything is good with you. :) chris still living.. still around.. :* Good to hear! :D korraaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh a9degaaaaaaa'eeeeeeeeee testing 1 2 3 bye :P Jellyooo wtf?? loool YIPPEEE something new!! :D ;) Chris, hehehehe I just can't believe that you do really check this place everyday.. lol Oh well what can I say? Happy Birthday! dearest sweet Chris, you really surprised me when you left a happy birthday greeting.. I am soo moved.. thank you so much for remembering, thank you so much for moving me like that.. it felt so good to know that there are people who cared even after I stopped blogging, cos you were the only one to send me such greeting.. it meant so much I swear.. Hugs and kisses Glad I could make you smile. :) O M G !!

Chopper dude no way!

I mean! I had a block for over a year & stopped blogging .. felt like I was hybernating .. and now .. I am blogging again . I mean .. I still can't write much .. but a lil now n then is better than nothing at all .. do that! Hybernate .. take a break .. but don't leave!! :((

This is the firt time I come here since I stopped & I am shocked! Your posts always inspired me & left me kind of jealous .. yes jealous! You seemed to always be able to say what I yearned to say in such ease & lovely sentiment .. dude .. you can't go!

Even if you feel that you can't write .. I know you have so much in you still to give & say.. and I am so sorry that I couldn't get over my jealousy before to participate on your blog as much as I would have liked .. I came here with that in mind .. that I am over it & ready to embrace your lovely nuttiness & the beauty of your character .. but you're gone!

You know what . I'm gonna go ahead & believe that you will be back in spite of this post .. You will write again .. and it will be better than ever .. cuz thats what happens after hybernation .. I'll miss you till you come back Don .. & I know you will .. I'll believe it for both of us :))) I thought I'd come by for old times sake and wish you well.

Hope you are enjoying your new phase :-)

All the best Dear peach,

I swear, I won’t go anywhere.. I will be around, just not writing anything anymore.. I don’t have it in me.. thank you so much for your sweet words.. thank you so much :)

You have always been one of the most genuine, truly decent, gentlemanly, beloved and respected of the original Kuwaiti bloggers. You are one of a kind and everyone will always think and speak of you in the highest regard and I hope you know this, because it is true. Tistahel kil khair ya Don, we are all rooting for you and wish you all the best.

Other than having the other house broke into everything is fine. :) I know I am not the only one who is wondering how everything is going with you ya Don :) You are truly missed and people still think and speak of you with great affection and great respect.

Your copycats are everywhere and fill the streets of Kuwait and Gulf Rd. tara ;)

Hope your life is filled with much love, happiness and great gentleness and kindness where ever you are now :) Hope you have found what you were looking for, Allah iwafgik.

Bas 36na updates, 5an nisme3 a5barek o swalfik :)

Take care and all the very best. Mia ia ia.. I can’t believe how many messages there are in here.. but no more emails though, I used to get tons of emails, now I only get from you once in a blue moon..

Chris, hmm.. broken in to homes are so much fun, unless it is yours.. I am soooooo sorry mi amor.. I hope you didn’t loose many valuable things..

Ms. Baker,

انتي ما تيوزين من الحجي المنمّق؟

Hehehe, I swear every time I read what you write, I feel everything is blooming around me, you really really know how to be soooooo lovable you noughty noughty girl.. :**

Latest, 2008 hasn’t been so kind, rough seas, but I am a fighter, and a very patient man, let’s see how things go, I am still in Kuwait, and still fighting to go to a place where my heart desires to live..

That’s about it for now.. oh, and can you please email me an invitation for your new blog? I am a silent reader of yours, I don’t say anything, cos really, there is nothing more to say about your situation, and what happened with you, I didn’t want to repeat what people said, but believe me, my heart cried for you.. and still crying for you.. :) Ya Don, only you could be so inimitably kind and compassionate. Thank you. Your kind, kind, words to me truly mean more than I can say...

I did not know you were still here, but I pray with all my heart that any obstacles standing in your way will be removed soon, and you will be able to go where your heart wants to go.

I would be most honored and delighted to have you come read and visit me at my (quiet and small) new blog once again. No invitation is necessary for old and honored friends. Il-bayt baytik.

Please, itfathal ya Don :) 7ayyak Allah :) ha lema al7een t7ebny? :P Ms. Baker.. The feeling is mutual I swear.. I am so glad that you are up and about again.. and really missing your uncontrollable long emails.. hehehe

When I clicked on the link, it asked me to log in for some reason :S

NYChickita.. ee a7ibbich, bas awwal kint a7ibbich akthar, al7een a7ibbich shwayyah agal min awwal.. and you know why!! :( weeh!! no I don't ...what did I do? NYChick, you went MIA.. may9eer :( ym3wad...
can't u see what's going on?
fe a7ad kafo or 9a7e naktb lah?
2 yrs I found 3 max...maybe

come back and I'll think about it
:P NY chick - 9ara7a ana ze3elt ba3ed when you left.... your blog was amazing and I was your silent fan. Your posts transported me. A true Kuwaiti NewYorker you were. 7asafa 3elych, those were the days :)

The Don - Sorry for that - I had added you to the blog and I think it's because you had previously registered with WP and already have a WP login name that that login request is showing up for you. I will email you and look for a way around it if that doesn't work out :) Ms. Baker Oh dear! never knew you were reading! You should've said something.

I was really tired of the freaks and the stupid people who read my blog ( few were enough for me to stop) It helped me realize why I don't have many Kuwaiti friends in real life! you know what I mean?

And the ones who should comment don't, so I felt frustrated. And to tell you the truth...It's not worth it AT ALL Will there ever be a come back..? NaDz, hmm.. nothing is appearing on the horizon so far.. I still miss even after more than a year stopping in here each and every day to see if there is a new post. :( Stopping by to say hello :-) still miss you!

my new blog (so you can lurk) :p
http://transformationsoup.org Ladies.. Chriss, J, Mallak.. you girls are sooooooo sweet I swear.. you are one of my fovorites ever.. o ana kel ma aro7 shway , ared algak tgazel wa7da..wa7daaat :P bas ga63t my heart

Come back, at least for inspiration purposes, we all need each other for inspiration, ask lady J.
;) Hope life is treating you good! Still miss your stories. :) Happy Birthday (a few days late) Hope you had a great day! :) Chris, oh my goodness, you remembered? no one did over here.. lol

thanks love.. thanks allot.. :) Greetings from beyond TheDon :-) Hope all is well Lady J, :*** Yallah, just for old times sake:

When are you gonna show us your legs, Chopper Dude? ;p Ms Baker loooool.. blast from the past.. such a Jewaira line lol

thanks for the laugh :** Hope life isgoing good for you. Still miss your stories. Chris, you were missed dear.. :( Yes, I do hope you are keeping those legs in shape :p

Eidik Mbarak, The Don. Hope happiness is your companion. Sorry just busy around here. :) lady J, sorry for the late reply, but I am in Spain lerning spanish among the spaniards.. what a lovely place to be in to learn a new language.. :))

Chris, as long as you are fine. I am very content.. como estas? donde esta min dinero?
bas hatha 7ade

ween invite u? it's closed wallah, nothing new :) NY Chick, no tengo dinero.. no mas.. jajajaja

Sloth, zaratna lebrekah lol vruuummmm vruuummmm ! Still miss hearing from you here! Chris, I really miss being here sometimes.. I miss the great honest genuine people that after two years they still come back to ask about me, and never forgot that I might have stopped writing, but I still exist :) I got this comment through my email.. I felt like sharing it with you, the ones that matter :)

------------------------
P.S: I tried to post this to your Blog, but I forgot my password.

Back in the day, I used to venture with my father back in the Veld to see if any squatters, like weed in an unkempt field, took hold of the land.
It seems that so far no one has claimed your territory here, Don. Some are not even able to ween themselves off what used to be a very entertaining and insightful and well-penned blog, even after almost two full years have passed.
It was an almost voyeuristic pleasure to live vicariously through you and your posts.

So Italian, and now Spanish. It takes a lot of perseverance. When are you going to give the French a chance? I'm very impressed; I tried German once and it was a disaster. At least now I can goose-step like a mofo :-)

Be well, amigo. Best of luck in Espana, and in all your other endeavors.
------------------------ Dear dear Man of La Mancha, I am speechless really, I don't know how to respond to such words.. the only thing I can think of is hoping that you stopped wearing that hat of yours that you used to wear in Valencia hahahaha.. you will always be loved, and missed terribly.. Those last few comments were wonderful ya Don. You deserved them and are blessed to have such caring from friends whose faces you know and those you don't.

The reason they keep coming back to check on and ask after you, is because the parts of your gentle and honest spirit shared here through your words and stories have touched the hearts of many in the best and cleanest of ways. The memory and impression lingers still :)

You are one of the cleanest, most pure-hearted, sweetest and most gentle souls I count myself fortunate to know and have as an old friend. And we all just wish that every joy and contentment worth having in this life is yours. MsB said it better than I could. I just miss your words. Even though I've never met you you are my friend. :) Stay well. You too MsB. Ms. Baker, honestly, one of the best things about having this blog is to end up meeting you.. you are exactly how you reflected your self on your blog.. I am not only glad to be your blogging friend, but to be your real friend in the real world..

Chris, I hope one day, one day will come and I will meet you too.. and have a glass of chilled white wine on a summer day with you (contigo).. Thanks ya Don, tistahel kel khair *HUG*

Christina - One day, I am coming over to see you laden with babka bread, coffee cake, and cinnamon pecan rolls - all from my US grandma's recipes. I hope I get to see your beautiful (and long imagined) Ohio field and the flowers, tomatoes, zucchini, and strawberries you grow there. I hope I get to cook you a typical Kuwaiti meal: (Chicken machboos (rice), dakoos and marag bamya (okra stew and spicy garlic tomato sauce), kubat batat (potato croquette), muhallabiya and girs 3egayli (cardamom milk custard and traditional saffron tea cake) for dessert.

( I know how to make all of them reasonably well I think ;p thanks to the teachings of the wonderful ladies who are the excellent traditional Kuwaiti cooks of my family) :** Well at the moment it is still a field but *someday*! LOl I would welcome you both.

Don maybe by then we will be making our own wine? Hubby's family has made wine for years and years and we plan to plant our own vines once we are there to be able to do it for ourselves one day. Warning though the family recipe is very potent, like 100 proof wine!:) Chriss, 100 proof wine!!!!!!! wow.. never knew that wine can hold this much alcohol loool Truely it will knock your socks off.I don't know that it is really 100 proof that is just what I call it because it reminds me of whiskey. Happy New Year Don :) Happy 2009! I hope this year brings everyone only good things! Is everything ok? You haven't posted since November? My lady J, thanks hun, same to you..

PS- sorry for the deletion but I had a major typo! H1 is an aphrodisiac!!

Waking up everyday, thinking it’s a writer’s block.. maybe it is more of me hoping it was a writer's block.. unfortunately I woke up today almost 6 months later, and that block is still here.. I sit here contemplating to take a major decision, that decision is one of the hardest I am about to take.. but I guess it was inevitable, no? Looking back to my life in the past 2 years, and I see that my life would have never been the same..

And so it is, me sitting in my room on new year's eve with "Celeste Prince" playing in the background.. trying to grasp the wonderful journey I had with all of you.. a journey that I would have not taken any other, if I had the chance.. I learned so much from you, and I hope you learn something from me.. cos this is what it's all about isn’t it, learning from each other.. never to stop learning from each other’s experiences.. Please.. don’t stop visiting this collection of my humble experiences in life.. in here you will find my joys and sorrows, my frustrations and rages, my love and my hate..

Yes, I decided to pull the plug, after a long time of reflecting, My life has taken a new turn, and I want to end a chapter of my life, and begin a new one.. and there is no better than a new beginning on the first day of new year day..

Thank you.. you.. you.. and you.. and even you who is dropping by this place for the first time, thank you for giving me the best experience in my life.. Love.. Every time I come here I feel love all around me.. it’s an amazing feeling I swear.. thank you so much for that.. it really made a difference in my life..

And before I go, I would like to say that I will not disappear behind the sun.. I’ll definitely be around here, cos in the end, all these friends I made, I have to see how they are doing.. and will stick around to support you all like how you supported me throughout the past 2 years.. I’ll end this post with what I think the best entries I have written, it’s my personal favorite ones, a collection of two years entries.. you don’t have to read them all in one go, you can take your time and keep coming back to read more..
