My happiest years of travels in 2005-2007.

Something to remember

My first day in Frankfurt on 4th of April 2005

Where to start?

I think it's a good time that i put some pictures where i've been in the year of 2005, 2006 and 2007.

Before that it was too hard for me, coz i had tough months to process my broken relationship. Ok, i admit, i still think of her. But my feelings for her are getting less and less... The strange thing is, when i listen to songs i remember her, it's getting a bit vague. I'm trying to concentrate harder to remember the moments we shared, while i shouldn't.

I like to share it with you, my friends, my travbuddies.

Let me take you back to 4 April 2005. I remember my first trip to Frankfurt Germany. I was so excited to meet Joyce.

Romer
Before we had lots of contact trough msn, emails, sms and phonecalls. It felt good between us. Finally i arrived the central station, waiting in front of the McDonalds and from the moment i saw her, dressed in a purple sweater, jeans, a handbag and her hair in a pigtail jumping up and down... Geez, she was pretty!! I was sold! I thought i finally found someone.

She was so nice to cook me dinner and taking me out to see the city of Frankfurt, the Romer, the centre, the Main river. On the 2nd day we went to Mainz, not so far from Frankfurt. I knew she like me and we were holding hands..The 3rd day we went out for shopping, dinner, the cinema (our first movie The Ring) and on a very romantic way we walked over the brigde of the Main river at night. Discussing about when i was coming back to see her. On Thursday 7 April, the day i left, we kissed. Less than 1 month later i came back to Frankfurt and i spend a whole week with her.

Am Main
Wouldn't it be nice if we live together?

I lost my count how many times i travel up and down, but i'm sure i went there more than 20 times to be with her.

Together we made so many citytrips in The Netherlands, Germany, holidaytrips to Mallorca, Pisa/Florence/Venice Italy, Athens Greece.

What do i miss the most? Just being with her... I was so happy. She was my everything. I never thought about getting married, having kids, grow old with one woman i love.

Untill i met her in my life. But now, she doesn't belong to me anymore. It's like i lost her, slipped out of my hands..

Sunday afternoon 22 April 2007 she had to fly back to Malaysia. She graduated for her exams so she had to go back to her parents, make her own living, find work and live there.

City Mainz
I didn't want to let her go. But i think she chose for her ambitions above me. It was 12:30pm, we said goodbye, she walked into the crowd and the last moment i saw Joyce was her black coloured hair in a pigtail jumping up and down like the first day i met her in real life on 4 April 2005.

I realized that i put my feets for the last time on the German floor and never come back. Never see the big buildings when i enter the central station of Frankfurt. And no special lady waiting there for me.. I sat in the back of the ICE train facing to the McDonalds and i saw myself standing there waiting for her. I knew it's gotta be hard now to keep my eyes dry with no tears. At the moment i left the central station, broken from inside, crying and the big buildings were getting smaller and smaller till it was gone.....

From that day till now, i still love her.

Alte Oper
But i don't believe that we will be together anymore. I don't believe in marriage anymore. I lived too much in the past for 8 months of 2007.

It's time to let her go..

In return i got new friends on Travbuddy. I had really awesome meetups, spending time with you guys! You made me smile, happy and laughing a lot. Thanks ! :D

If you are reading this, thank you for the strain and time to read this. I really appreciate that.

The song: The Way You Look Tonight
reminds me to her forever.

Someday when I'm awfully low
When the world is cold
I will feel a glow just thinking of you
And the way you look tonight.

Oh, but you're lovely with your smile so warm
And your cheek so soft
There is nothing for me, but to love you 
Just the way you look tonight

With each word your tenderness grows
Tearing my fear apart
And that laugh that wrinkles your nose
touches my foolish heart
Lovely, never never change
Keep that breathless charm
Won't you please arrange it?
'Cause I love you
Just the way you look tonight...

(more pics will come)

Hey Ket,
Samuel Butler said it best, "Better to have loved and lost than never to have lost at all."

True love doesn't have a happy ending, because true love never ends. Letting go is one way of saying I love you.
