Woke up this morning and saw the dark gloomy sky and i stuck my head back under my quilt.in the comfort of my warm quilt, i realised i had to get up and go to vic mkt. that was when it hit me:it's my last vic mkt trip for this semester..and i am going alone.
as i was walking there,alot of thoughts went through my mind.from the very first vic mkt trip when i went with my seniors...to the first vic mkt trip i make by myself when my seniors din want to go with me...to the first vic mkt trip with the CS kaki gang...then on to all the last vic mkt trips with the members of the gang: eugene,andrew,peiling,weipeng...and last week, jingfung and edwin. and now,as i once again walk to vic mkt on my own,i suddenly feel at peace with the leavings of so many members of the gang...the gloomy sky doesn't bother me anymore. my footsteps became lighter...and i wanted to sing. it's been very long since i felt that way.
of course,part of my happiness is due to the fact that i am going home in like 6 days. woo hoo! and of course, i know when i return to melbourne in july,i'll probably be upset again. but it feels good at least for now to be able to smile and know that even though my friends are gone physically,they'll still be with me emotionally
last night,jingfung and edwin gave me a farewell gift:a F.R.I.E.N.D.S. book. it's a book to commemorate the ending of the greatest TV show ever..and my favourite TV show ever. i was so touched..and i was so surprised...i'm glad i din cry in front of them. :> oh,by the way,they left one of the price tags on the book. typical of them :P
not that i din think of getting them farewell gifts..just din know what to get them. but now they've given me such a wonderful present...i feel the pressure of getting them great gifts as well.which is gonna be hard cos i have NO IDEA what guys like. ah well,i'll just have to figure something out...
germaine cancelled her sleepover here tonight. can't say i am not disappointed,but i think i am handling it pretty well compared to last time when i would probably be super upset. guess letting go of the emotional baggage i've been carrying for so long has helped to look at the brighter side of life.
and as the song in one of the Nike ad goes," always look on the bright side of life *whistling*"
tata!
