I'm back.

Hello, hello, sawadee ka!

I'm still here. I can honestly say I have not forgotten about my blog. The truth is, I feel like I am transitioning. As you have heard or perhaps read, I had a visitor last month. Yep, a handsome one at that. We have so much to share. It was great, so great. In fact I have been having trouble in deciding where to dig in. I had to call for reinforcement. Nick and I are working through iPod photos, iPhone photos, camera photos, video, and several technological issues. Aside from the material aspects, I have stated into my second semester at Joy School in addition to my graduate work. It has not been easy.

Nick being here with me opened up several new doors to my cross-cultural experience. I think I'm ready to open up my level of communication and socialness a bit more. Independence has been a strengthening part of my life, but now is the time to embrace the love I get from him and all of you each day. I am feeling rather grateful, blessed, and... overly excited to bring myself closer to you all.

Here's the plan. Nick and I are working on the posts together. Our first is on its way. Nick is going to work on the final touches today. Right Nick? Yes? We can do this.
Holly's "Dear Nick" thoughts go Social
Alright, can I just be over-the-top in this post? Let it out? Ok, here it is.

Nick, I'm missing you like crazy. I cannot believe how much more I love and appreciate you. I am having an amazing journey with you that I never want to end. And thank you for carrying my backpack in the 90 degree, full sun heat, when my shoulders where about to collapse. You knew I wouldn't ever ask for help, and told me that you were going to take my bag.

"Holly, give me your bag. See it's better this way, now I'm more balanced with the two bags (one on his back and one on his chest)." 

I think I owe you.

PS - I sure am wishing you were here with me right now. I went to the Sunday Floating Market tonight, as we did our first night here. I just wanted to buy some new foods with you, take you home on my bike, and then share it with you. I will never forget how much I appreciate eating with someone. Love you.

Love all of you. Thanks for your patience and tagging along with me on this adventure. See you all in April. Next post, Surat Thani, but this time I wont be alone.
