this is a blog about me missing my girlfriend ying ying. 7304 miles or 11755 kilometers and the pacific ocean separates us from each other. the loneliness i feel whenever i miss her inspired me to create this blog. putting into writing what i feel makes me feel better and also share to the world how much i love her and how we can get past long distance relationships.

iphone 4!!!

yeeeeessss!!! i finally got hold of my iphone 4!!! it was three weeks of waiting for me since globe did not have any stocks (i'm not sure if that's true) they said. it's amazing how decisions can quickly change...before, i wanted a blackberry, now, i was begging for an iphone because she has the same phone and we can do face time. i am definitely looking forward to using the features of my phone so that i can update her and vise versa. for long distance relationships, it is a good idea to get hold and take advantage of every technological apparatus and programs available. they will definitely help in keeping missing her/him pangs away temporarily and give you your daily dose of him/her.

social networking sites can also be very useful to get updates from each other but sometimes, you think, is it really helping? does it make you feel better that you learn what he/she is doing? what he/she is thinking? or does it make you miss him/her more? because sometimes, i end up browsing her posts, pictures, and activities and it definitely makes me miss her more. i don't know, but for me, these things can sometimes be a double edged sword.

i will be putting my iphone to good use. now, i can record videos and take pictures anywhere and anytime and i can send it to her to update her about my day. that would definitely help out in bridging the distance that is between us. i could not imagine how people before the advent of telephones and other tech gadgets maintain long distance relationships. before, telegrams and letters are the only way of receiving news from each other. you will hear from each other on months at a time and you don't even have a choice. their love and trust for each other will keep the relationship onwards. if both parties are willing and equally dedicated, no amount of distance can hinder them from being together in one point in time. so never take for granted what we have at our disposal today. take advantage of them, it will help us who are in long distance relationships :)
