I believe people used to call me Burp a long time ago, and even before that, people knew me as Elizabeth Tan. Now, I'm Liz Palik. Just how many different versions of myself can I really be? And how many lives can I lead in my alloted lifespan? Disconcerting as it may be, it's still nonetheless thrilling that I have hopped from one dream to another, savoring the change while still relishing in the memory of the preceding one.
I live in Orlando, FL for now. I am a college student studying Literature (which I love). Someday I want to write for a magazine. I'm working towards that goal now and have already been writing for some small publications. I live with my wonderful husband Steve and my cat Fish. She is a beautiful tabby baby girl who is not just my light and joy but also my loyal companion who sits at my desk through my creative distresses and inspirational enigmas.
I love literature, I love music and I love the earth. I respect my humanity and have great veneration for truth, beauty, freedom and love. I like to cook and I like making things. I don't like fighting and I don't like pain. I also don't like to clean toilets or feel like I have to change the way I look for people to like me.
My husband is a wonderful sexy man. He is a supportive friend and an inspiration to me. I love him with all my heart and will more than willingly look past his crazy eccentricities (especially the one where he is content to leave dirty dishes to mould over in the sink).
My family and friends live in Singapore and also in my heart. I miss them dearly and will someday show them that I have never left them after all.
I don't know what is going to happen next in my life. I will not try to decide what will happen 5,10 or 2 years from now because doing so will only affirm my death. Instead, I will go where my path takes me and I will take care of everyone who chooses to walk with me and love them the best I can.
I doubt this walk will ever end.
