and so the packing begins

it hit me a week ago that i was three weeks away from exams.

today, it hit me that i only one more week in cardio, 2 more weeks from exams.
and over the past couple of days,i started to pack my stuff, in preparation to cut down the amount of time i'll be spending post exams to pack and clean the apt.

and it feels really good to start seeing stuff being put away..cupboards becoming emptier. but a sense of nostalgia starts to surround me too. when i start taking some stuff down from my pin board, and as it starts to look 'naked' without all the usual junk i put on it, i feel something tug at my heart

that's when i know that although everyone else thinks CS sucks (actually,i think so too :D) this would always be a special place to me. 10 yrs down the road, if CS is still here and if i do return to melb for some reason, when i see this place that had me scrimping and saving for the past 3 years and had me hopping mad at their lousy administration and phonelines, i know that i would smile and be only reminded of the happiest times i had here in melb.

and if things go well,when i board that plane to go back home in 3 weeks time,i'd be dreading the day when i return to melbourne to vacate this apt. my 2nd fav apt (my fav is 7S11,which i shared with peiling) out of the 'dunno how many' apts i've lived in here. best thing abt this apt is the fantastic view. which i dun think i am going to get next year. apts with good views in the city is simply way out of my budget.

but germaine's company would make up for the view (hopefully :P) and the one thing i look forward to most is the fact that next year is my LAST year here!

but,still got one week of clinic, swot vac and then exams. if i can get a flight home on 5 nov, it's 22 days to home sweet home. ahh..i can almost taste the roti prata and char kuay teow...almost feel han wei's hug...almost hear my mum's incessant nagging...can almost see changi airport control tower.

can't wait to get home!!
