Random ramble
7 September 2007More than half of a year have passed since we started living together here in Ipswich. Exaclty this day 7 months ago, we were at home celebrating our engagement with our families and the ones we love. Looking back and all this time seems just a blink of an eye. If anyone ask what have changed, the answer will be a lot.
For me, everything could not be better and I could not have been happier but for Thao, things are not that simple. I used to live all by myself probably even since my secondary school time and changing to different life styles is not a problem for me. With Thao, this is a big change, perhaps the biggest change in her life so far. She gave up a lot of things to come here to stay with me. She even gave up her scholarship to do a PhD in a famous Australian university to come here for a so so PhD course at a so-so university (no way near Southampton :p
. However, so far the biggest sacrifice she made was to go away from home, from her parents and her sister. Now after 7 months, she still has not get used to that change in her life and it makes her really sad. I know that but sometimes I still doing things that hurt her feelings and ending up upsetting her even more 
Looking at the brightside, 7 months have passed which means there were now just 5 more months to go when we will be back to Vietnam and we will be able to be with our family again, to see the faces of our loves and to be in their arms. I know you are counting everyday but be sure that you are not the only one counting.
It is a mixed feeling today. On one hand, I am happy that we are together and we do enjoy our life. On the other hand, I am sad since I still make you life sadder and harder that it should have been. Sorry honey and I promise I will be better. I wish us well and time will fly real fast. Love you and congratulation on our 7 months aniversary
