time realli flies. before i knew it, i haf been in the foreign land for almost 4 months. so it doesnt seem right to call this place whr i am staying in and will be staying in for the next 2 yrs to come a foreign land. over the past 4 months, things are starting to turn familiar. the daily route i take to work, the same office tt i go to, the same wkend groceries shopping. however, at the same time when things start to slow down n lose its excitment, it's when the feeling of missing home, family and friends starts to creep in slowli. probably cos i was on leave for the past 2 daes. it's the first time since the first few wks tt i suddenli feel like gg home. being in a familiar place whr i grew up and having loved ones around. guess it's oso probably cos there have been frens visiting, as well as mi hsemate's family visiting. and it's alwaz smiling faces of joy and excitement when they first come; but sad faces when saying farewells to our loved ones at the airport once again. over the past 2 weeks, i have made a total of 3 trips to the airport to send ppl off. parting is alwaz sad, even it's not my loved ones tt i am sending off. ttz how life works. ppl come, ppl go. it's jus part n parcel of life. so alwaz treasure what you have and who you haf around u at this moment. for you will never noe if the person will still be ard the next moment.
