Wheels
I worked in a body shop at Atlanta, GA in 2019 summer. It is one of the best times I have ever had and met many good people.
I loved Jeep Wrangler Rubicon, RAM 1500 Rebel, G63 Wagon, F-150 Raptor, Mustang GT500 5th generation, M3, and Jaguar F-TYPE.
I am loving 964 and 911.
I was on a 04 Honda CBR 600RR, 15 Kawasaki Ninja 300, and 19 BMW S1000RR(crashed on the track). Now, I am riding a 16 Kawasaki ZX-6R KRT with an M4 exhaust.
I did cycling a lot and am trying to go back. Now, I am with a 2022 Specialized Roubaix and a 2021 Giant Trance X 29 2 with modified Fox front and rear suspensions.
Memos
I have had sleep disorders since 2019.
I have met many good people and I am lucky that several of them became my friends, which painted colors in my life.
The moments from 2010 - 2017 continuously support me to get through every darkness till now. The part of mine, changed by you but replaced by you, would be with me forever.
Aesthetics tells a person's everything.
Still got the courage to give, do wish I.
I am missing all those times, when I met good people and was being loved.
A few years ago, a friend told me that after every relationship ends, we tend to implicitly lose some abilities, such as trust, faith in love, courage, and self-confidence.
Thanks to my parents for building a strong wall around me during my childhood and protecting me from the complexities and darkness of the world.
Best comments from an auto forum so far: "Sounds like you just had to grow up and now you need something dependable instead of fun. I keep a toy to work on but my daily is the most reliable piece of shit I could find".
I am having a hard time struggling with my personal desire.
Suddenly, I recalled some memories, which I thought I have forgotten. It was a summer night at SOS in Hangzhou. MY,YD,JY,YQ,R, and I had a wonderful night dancing, drinking, hugging, kissing, and crying.
If you want to know me, you would be suggested to know the unforgettable moments I had, the shining people I met, and the dark nights I stayed up.
I have lost and am losing interest in knowing new people.
Those ones who I have ever loved live deeply in my body and become parts of me forever.
"Penny, we are made of particles that have existed since the moment the universe began. I like to think those atoms traveled 14 billion years through time and space to create us so that we could be together and make each other whole." - Lenerd
What I hate: Name@Conference Name + Year at Twitter; promote fancy but hard-to-understand model diagrams at Linkedin.
I do not want to ride across rocks in the mountains, fly close to the ground, or spend remaining young times alone anymore.
I had a kitten. His name is Dandee.
“你给过我的伤害,是没有一句责怪。”
You do MTB, snowboarding, motorcycling, wear white dresses, sneakers, high heels, play music, dance, paint, laugh, cry.
I met, when we met, I know it is like drugs.
It was impressive to read books out word by word together. I remember the last time was with my mom when I was a kid.
The darkest moment I've ever faced was made bearable by the unwavering presence of my parents. In that challenging time, their support and love became a guiding light, providing comfort and strength when I needed it most.
Initially, I believed love to be an unwavering commitment, a constant affection for a singular person. Yet, life unfolded differently, revealing that hearts can unexpectedly shift, akin to losing interest in a cherished game. Astonishingly, it occurred to me that there might be a hundred million souls on this Earth perfectly attuned to ours, challenging my previous belief in the exclusivity of one. The notion that loving me implies an impossibility of loving someone else, and vice versa, gradually dissolved. In the aftermath, it feels as though I've surrendered the ability to love, much like a cola losing its effervescence beneath the scorching summer sun.
