As a kid watching W. Disney films was one of my favorite hobbies. Watching the prince on a white horse, swiftly ride off into the sunset with his princess and living happily ever after was my favorite moment.

But, I was never the sucker kid who believed in that stuff. I was far more realistic for my age, thinking I’d probably get a horse without the prince and ride it into the sunset…

I had never believed in love at first sight, long distance relationships or mythological creatures either.

As I grew older, I learned not to trust men, weather forecasts and old women telling me what to wear.

I also never thought that I, of all the people in the world would be willing to have a long distance relationship and eventually to move half way across the world to be with someone I care about (no horse included - thank godness).

Looks like times are changing… for the better. And I couldn’t be happier.

I just hope unicorns and UFOs won’t be flying around soon.

I am very superstitious, and since this year is the year of the Pig (Chinese lunar calendar) I was told it was one of the lucky ones. I was born in the year of the Pig and those people are considered to be fortunate. I am willing to wait and see if these predictions are true.

So far so good… :)

In the mean time, I will trash the horoscopes and search for my fate online with a little help of airline ticketing and job searching websites.
Keep your fingers crossed for me.

Hiya Merili, keep the faith and dreams do come true my dear friend.

As you continue to believe in whatever you endeavour soon, things would be alright once you are on the positive track.

Do drop me an email if ever you come by to Singapore and I would be most happy to assist you.

Cheers always! (No prince but definitely light at the end of the tunnel Merili :D)

keeping fingers crossed! =) Its nice to read stories of abundant happiness - I guess in some ways, we create our own futures and you've allowed yourself to believe in the dream, thus it came true =D
To an eternity of bliss and happiness!

Cheers!!! =D

Chinese tradition has it that you should wear something (anything) red all year long and not take it off. (falling off by itself is ok). :)

tvoj muz je mucho bonito i afortunado.

"I am very superstitious, and since this year is the year of the Pig (Chinese lunar calendar) I was told it was one of the lucky ones."

This is very true. You know why? Who won't be lucky if they sit and get fed all day. :-DDDDD

Oh by the way, can you tell me more about why Bosnians (not just you, man I met)have this thing for astrology. I'm very curious about this and still haven't found any explanation.

It's nice to see someone as smart as you believe that a long distance relationship can work out with enough efforts.

Fills me with hope :)
