My entire life's vaccume-packed into 12 boxes...


Dunno how many people have actually packed their entire life and moved around the globe.... I left Korea @ 11 to Macau but didn't really feel anything much then... may be I was just too young to have made much memories to treasure.... I only remember snap shots of family times, primary school, the kid-nap incident, etc....

Then I left once again to go to HK to work after Uni..... well... then it was more like getting the long-waited-freedom..... just the thought of being independent and partying till the dawn was all I wanted....

But now... it feels soooo different.... after so many yrs.... when u r at an age where u have made on ur own and lived & living ur life in the way that u want (?!?) and made so much memories... it's so much more harder to leave everything behind and move on....

For the past 2 weeks, I've been going thru all my stuff -- u know trying to throw things out cus shipping everything isn't exactly realistic... ummm.... well... throwing things were not as easy as I thought... it brings back kinda feelings that I find hard to explain... I must admit, I laughed, smiled, cringed and yes.... cried a bit doing that.....

Ummm.... among all the things that I found, there were lil notes from my old friend from yrs ago... first movie tix wi the first serious bf (lol~~), luv notes, old high school ID cards, b-day cards, funny shots, old diaries, photoes wi my ex-fiancee, rusted rings, stuff from all the trips I made, etc.... oh god..... they brought back so much memories.... It's like finding fossils.... It seemed like those memories were hidden (or rather forgotten) underneath the so many new memories that I've been making over the past so many yrs....

Hmmm.... well... after vacuume-packing my entire life into 12 boxes (and shipped)... think am ready to leave now.... and start a new chapter.... and I hope, I can add many more boxes wi stuff to treasure -- the kind that I can laught, smile, cringe & cry abt yrs later.... :)

Btw.... I must say those cheap Japanese HK$10 vaccume-bags are the BEST.... It shrank my life from 24 boxes to 12 boxes!!! lol~~~ oh man.....
