Precious Life

Its been awhile since my last entry! Since coming back to Hong Kong things have been very busy. I guess it's time that I do a mini update.

Today is the one month mark for when I will leave Hong Kong to move to London! I am absolutely thrilled to bits to embark on a whole new experience in my life. I'll be joining the English National Ballet after one more set of Swan Lake shows with the Hong Kong Ballet.

I remember the first day I arrived in Hong Kong so well, I can't believe six years has gone by since that day. So much has happened during those years and I remember each and every memory so vividly and I will treasure it all for the rest of my life! I'm currently reading an autobiography of a lady named Olga Geddes entitled I Kept On Dancing, which so clearly describes her memoirs of her life, including her hardships during the war while living in Natzi Germany. Sometimes when I read how detailed her accounts are, I am amazed at how she could remember it all. I then start to think of my life and on reflecting on these past six years in Hong Kong, I understand how it is possible to remember events with such detail. I have written many journal entries over the years which I suppose will also help in keeping those memories. It's really interesting to read back and see how everything panned out from every situation I wrote about. Many times I see how my emotions blocked out the reality of situations and reading journal entries written during hard times, in hindsight, the solution to those problems seems painfully clear. But I suppose that is being unfair, as hindsight is always 20/20 as they say!

So here's to life- memories, ups and downs, love and broken hearts, endings and new beginnings. It's all so precious and I just can't wait to experience more of everything!
