home is where the hea(r)t is
i am back!
from outer space!
i just flew in to find me here
with the sweat running down my face!
the humidity hit me (quite literally) like a wet blanket as i struggled - with 30kg of stuff and cello in hand, through the doors of the airport.
i love being back. it feels odd, almost like i never left. there's a shell of familiarity dressed up in a cloak of change.
i went to little india yesterday and for the first time, looked at it through the eyes of a faux-tourist. felt a bit odd. like meeting an old lover.

i can't wait to be back!!!
fat fingers: when will that be?? anytime soon? this december?
only thirty kilos? wow, you mustn't have been a pack-rat like i am.
i've been back on the island five days and the farthest i've gone is prolly my front gate ...
how do you stand feeling sticky, sweaty, and stinky (okay, the last one could be just me) all the time?
Welcome back! We should meet!
wow! you're lucky to be back at sillypore! i have like exactly counting down, 2weeks more to go! wheee.
ah well. i've not done my packing yet (tsktsk, the stuff in my room can fill 3 big boxes!) :( hahaha. ah well.
they actually allowed you to carry your cello? or you wouldnt allow them to paste the "fragile" sticker and go thru the normal way eh? :D
see ya around!
i will be back this dec.. in 5 weeks time! Yahoo!
s: uh, the combined weight of the checked-in luggage between the housemate and myself came up to 74kg. heh.
you should get out! it's not too bad, just that i'm now fighting off a bit of claustrophobia - i's sure you can relate to that too. try going out to meet someone for ice-cold kopi! it's a good incentive to get your ass out of the house! that's my method, at least.
in a bid (i hope!) to ward of the smell, i just take more showers; but have to live with being perpetually sticky. ah well.
hungry bunny: nah. but for a good long while... 3 months! before i head down south again.
maoie: yeah! wanna meet! when will you be free? next week?
pat: i only did my packing 2 days before getting back. and the last day was spent spring-cleaning the place. exhausting!
and i actually bought a ticket for my cello, that's how come it was with me the whole journey. heh.
fat fingers: woohoo! getting your head checked by a jumbo jet, eh? bet you're looking forward to being back!
