Day 2 being home.On my facebook status I wrote : "Thanks for all your concern my dear friends. After 3hours flight to Taipei, 2hours transit at Taipei with flight delay, 5hours flight to Singapore, spend one day in Singapore and 6hours of bus ride from Johor..I'm finally..home."
Such a long and tiring journey.I had muscle strain on my shoulders on the day I touched down in Singapore. It was such a tiring journey, for not only the flight was not comfortable,the transit at Taipei was so misleading and confusing. Lucky that day Jet was with me (met her at Kansai airport) and having to face everything with another person is so much better.
But anyway...Fast forward today.I spent time at home watching Taiwan talk shows, accompanied parents for lunch and stayed at home the whole day. Felt so useless doing nothing but I guess just by being here might actually calm my parents down. I want to do something,anything in fact,to help and take part of the ongoings in Japan, but other than reading the news online and pestering some juniors who are still in Japan,there's nothing much I could do.(kena ignored by some juniors too -.-'')
Tomorrow,I'm going to go out with some friends for lunch and tea. I can imagine our topics will revolve around Japan, my life there etc. Not in the mood for karaokes all those,so I guess lunch should be alright. Besides, no point being emo here and all. After all,I'm only back for one week..I guess I might as well enjoy my time meeting my friends.
I don't know. This feeling is so weird. I love my friends here, but I don't feel that I belonged here.Somehow. Out of place,is what I really feel. It's a very complicated feeling. And I wanted to talk to people about it. But Abby's not here. And I don't have a boyfriend whom I could talk these things to about. So I guess,I could only blog? lol.
Sad fact.

Try to enjoy your 1-week home time k!
I know what you meant by "...I love my friends here, but I don't feel that I belonged here.Somehow. Out of place,is what I really feel. It's a very complicated feeling. And I wanted to talk to people about it..."
I have that feeling all the time..it's like "eh, I thought I'm close to them"...but somehow, the feeling is just not right, esp during the 1st meet up. I guess it's the price we have to pay for being overseas for too long?! Do you feel like sometimes you're not even close to anyone, be it friends at home or friends overseas...
Seems like I'm not being helpful in shooing away the emo-ness. :P xx
Yea, I guess that's the price we pay for being away too long. Relationships with friends need time to nurture too,I guess.
I sometimes think that I am much closer with friends overseas now because what I've been through for these few years are with them..
But I dunno..it's sometimes sad to see that on your phone list there's not a person who u can really call out of the blue..
Yeah, esp not knowing if the other person is actually free or not...I guess close friends/ bestie doesnt really care much...haha! Unless you're really busy...Anyway, have fun back home! (:
