Its Friday night, me and my classmates at Diqiucun language school are going out together.
I take Siska with me and later on, Yatty will join us.
First we went to a coffe shop together, me,siska, ben and bill.
Around 7 we meet up with some Korean classmates and ate Korean bbq together.

After dinner we went to Touch Nine, located in Wudaokou and we call it 韩国楼.
We play games, and we drink a LOT. Yatty finally join us, then there we were, in one big table, chat, talk and having fun. With Korean friends, you can expect them as a good drinking friend !

That night Bill and me exchange our phone number. Just because I need to go out with Siska to meet up with Yatty, and I left my bag on the bar with Bill. So I need him to let me know if they are leaving the bar.

That time I was thinking that "Ah, what a cute creature ! :D"

I remember some of my classmates started to get drunk, including Bill and I think Ben as well.

Saturday morning, me, Siska and Yatty are going to Temple of Heaven. I was so tempted to send sms to Bill, but I didn't. Siska remind me to keep on waiting.
So he finally texted me, he said "你醒了吗?" Means "are you awake ?"
Hahaha, from there we kept on sending sms back and forth.
Me, walking around at Temple of Heaven with my friends, and Bill working on Saturday recording session.
After several texts, he asked me out. He wants to meet me at The Wu subway station around 7.30 I guess.

Dinner with Yatty and her family is done, I rushed to the designated place to meet him.

And there I saw him, squatting in his black-blue rain jacket and his brown pants.

From there, we went out on our 1st date... :)

Where ? 北京大学的未名湖 (Beijing University)

The details of the 1st date will be post later ;)

valentine's day

This is our 1st valentine's day where we are not together.
Bill is back in Seattle and I spent my valentine's day by working from 9am-10pm in the office.
No celebration, no flower, nothing.

On our first valentine's day, we went to a hotspring near Beijing.
It was on February, Beijing winter and the hotspring was outdoor !
It was nice to get into the hot water during the cold cold day. And when we want to move to another hotspring, we would walk fast, cold cold cold just to jump back into the hot water. That's life... :)

On 2nd valentine's day, we went out to eat on a Vietnamese restaurant.
I still remember that time I just got my new Samsung slide up phone and I'm wearing my black dress and sandals on winter time.
We took taxi to go to the place, and I remember that we can only use cash to pay for our food, and we dont have cash in hand !
We walked for about 20minutes to find the closest atm, and then we got back to the restaurant and enjoy our dinner.
On the way back home, we took taxi and I lost my cellphone. So it was nice but also not nice at the same time.
I lost 2 phones in 2 months ! + 1 bicycle ! *ouch!*

The similarities of these valentines is that Bill always bought me 1 red roses, in front of me !!!
I think he never thought about buying me a red rose, till he saw them. So he buy one for me, and he bargain for it in front of me ! =D
Hahaha...it's always funny and I always happy for it.

But this year, no celebration, no red roses, no presents.

It's ok, we have next year and years after that to celebrate our funny valentine.

Oh, I do receive something this valentine on my inbox :
Tessa will you be my valentine?
Love b


Happy belated valentine's day, people !
hugs

when we first met

October 2006, After my Graduation, I fly back to Beijing, to continue study Chinese.
During this period, there were no new class open, so I decided to take class at 地球村 near the 五道口subway station.

I apply for the 汉语口语二and take my class.

I was late, so when I get into the class, the lesson has started.
Not so many students on that class, Not more than 8. I took a seat near the white board, sit quietly and try to put my concentration on the lesson.

After 1 hour, there were 10-15 mins break. I know nobody on that class, and not interested to talk to anyone. So I sat quietly and look into my book, when suddenly I heard a voice asking me "新同学,你叫什么名字?“ (hey, new classmate, what's ur name ?)

Me surprised, point my finger to my self “我?" (me ?)
“我叫罗美香or Tessa" (my name is luo mei xiang or tessa)

And it was Bill who asked me for my name. He asked me FIRST !! Haha...!

As far as I remember, we didn't talk so much on my first day.

That's how we know each other.

Simple and Sweet

It was in the end of summer 2008, I was in Seattle, visiting Bill.
We haven't see each other for about 3 months, and that day we just got back home.

He hugged me and said "Tessa, I like life best with you"

Simple and so sweet.

back home to seattle

Well, I'm here in the Taoyuan Taipei Airport using there excellent free internet terminal. The trip is done, I arrived in Jakarta a lost soul searching for meaning in the dark hazy bowels of this humanly world and left with a guiding light and purpose in the shape of a smallish girl named Tessop. Ah, I suppose you could say I'm exagerating a little there, but really, life will take on a whole new dimension and trajectory from here on out. Much of it oriented towards answering that all-too-important question: "When?!"

So, for the next two months I will be in Seattle, finishing up the economics course, saving money, and growing a mustache and then on to Shanghai!
