Life is unpredictable and NoThiNg is permanent except CHaNge! A continuous cycle... Like a hamster running around in circle on a wheel, it goes on and on and on... Hopefully, finding our purpose in life and achieving our goals beyond the dizzying spin.This is what I hope to achieve...
With the unfortunate effect of the bad economy on us middle of the year, last year, along with the distasteful outcomes that followed it, Life decided that we're not that too beaten up yet so it's giving us another challenge to overcome. Am I ready to embrace this new real-life survivor challenge fate is throwing at us? I can only but grind my teeth!
My hubby's promotion to Lao Shr brings both good and bad. Yin Yang as it's called. You get both sides of the equation in life {no way around it}. Good because after 10 years, he finally reached the ultimate pinnacle of his training. Bad {in an essence} because this means we have to MOVE! Part of the moral code of his training is that no student can put up their school in close proximity to their "mother Guan". You don't compete with your alma mater! It is BAD WUDE!
MOVE = ROAD TRIPS {and lots}! Which makes me grumble every time I think of it. Moi being melodramatique?
Can't help it. Moving is not my best forte! U-hauls and moving vans are not my BFF's. Moving boxes are my predators! {I have yet to find someone who likes moving, do you?} BUT we've reached the end of the line in Charlotte and it's time {whether I like it or not} to hunt for the next "lucky" city where to build a new nest in. Our first trip was this Saturday and though it is not your typical weekend getaway, we made the most out of it. We toured:
Huntersville NC, well-known venue for the famous Carolina Rennaisance Festival held every year.It's about 30 minutes away from Charlotte. A growing town yet noticeably still has that quaint little town feel to it. I've always been a city girl, since birth and now. So, sue me! Yes, Moi can be picky! I need more convincing...
Huntersville boast of multiple Parks which we managed to visit all of. One interesting sight we found was this antique Red Caboose serving as a landmark near the small Farmer's Market site.
Then the Malls. Visited ALL of them! OF COURSE! I'll never live in a town not knowing a single shopping mall I can run to for therapy! Touche'! The town has three major Shopping Centers : Birkdale Village, Rosedale Shopping Center and Northcross Shopping Center. I like Birkdale Village the most. It is a quaint, attractive shopping center reminiscent of small Villages in England. Best of all, it offers free wi-fi coverage on the entire village! Now, that's free perk for moi! Unfortunately, I didn't get to connect...bum!
Maybe Huntersville isn't so shabby a place to live in afterall. Though moving is a gross thought, things will not unravel until we've decided "this is it!" Until then, let me gripe, whine and grumble! I'm allowed. So there...
