Heads Up
12 November 2012

For some reason, this blog has had a total of 1204 views.
That's a pretty number.
Considering that its been ages since I've updated, I'm guessing its people who stumble upon this page by accident?

Well, I'd be keeping this page because there's so much memories stored in this blog. About 400 odd entries. An older blog of mine on this account dated way back to 2004, when I WAS 12! I'm 22 now. I find online media so fascinating - that our thoughts, our memories and our penmanships are cached indefinitely, at least for as long as we allow them to hover in between whatever cloud space they currently exist in.

The second post below this dated 24th July 2011 talked about my impending flight to Seoul. It's been over a year since then - I've experienced a far bit, grown up exponentially and matured faster than I thought I ever would. Seoul last summer was incredible yet lonely at times but definitely was a game-changer for me. I met my boyfriend there while on summer exchange and it has been a bumpy ride since then. My life was forever altered by the presence of this man and I lost many things - my naivete, my overwhelming optimism, my low self-esteem. It wasn't all because of him but he had a big part to play in it! When I say I've lost my naivete and optimism, it doesn't mean I've lost it all! ;D Just trying to articulate that I've matured as an individual and shed the child-like facade of 2011. In a way, it was necessary for me to embrace my adulthood and to acknowledge that the world isn't all bunnies and roses as I'd grown up to hope and believe. It's pretty messed up out there and as young adults, we all try to keep our heads properly screwed on and I'm happy to say that I'm not alone in this. I'm still walking with the Lord, my God and Savior and my boyfriend has recently turned back to God as well. Keep praying for us, brothers and sisters who chance upon this page and be greatly blessed!

Well, on a random note - 2 of last month's views came from Mexico and that's where my Korean boyfriend spent a good 7 years of his life at. Holla to all the accidental Mexican readers!

If you'd like to find out how my life's going or if you're just curious about this faceless person behind the screen, follow my tumblr at cherieanne.tumblr.com or my upcoming public blog on my life and interests at iwasbornmad.blogspot.com. Hope to see you beautiful people there; LOVE AND GOD BLESS.
