ONE MORE WEEK!!
One more week until I'll be home for more than a fortnight in five years!!!
It'll be an interesting adaptation because in the past five years, I've been setting up to live on my own. I have my own things which I don't (need to) share because I've always been territorial about my things as I had to constantly keep things in good order to pass down to my sisters who promptly tear them up.
No, srsly.
Have you not had to write gingerly with pencils on workbooķs and playbooks and trace out colouring books on scrap paper, proudly pass them onto your younger siblings as they come of age to that colouring/writing level and they got hold of crayons and marker pens and proceeded to annihilate the meaning of preservation?
Until now, I experience traumatic flashbacks when one of them asked to borrow something of mine.
In any case, I'll be extremely glad to feel settled (I feel cosy already!) and would be finally able to celebrate the kareshi's and my birthdays together for the first time, have Christmas and New Year's together for the first time (my grandpa passed away on Xmas eve last year so that didn't, couldn't count.). Yea, after about five years of dating, we don't have those milestones. How tragic.
I missed my parents' big 50s, Jessica's 21st, Juliana's end of public schooling...friends' life events (not mentioning weddings, I'm talking about other friends) and basically, just everything I ever wanted to do like join local events - I'm doing the bloody 10km Penang Bridge this November as a sadistic, belated birthday present to myself.
Hah!
Can't believe it's already July and I'm still not used to 2013. Maybe it's a quarter-life crisis - have I done enough?
But who says that I can't start a wee bit later?
