Drifting off...

I’m sooo sleepy today! I’m still not recovered from the weekend. Last Sat, in fact every Sat from now on, I have Students Tuition Ministry work in church. After it ended, went for dinner with Janette at LJS. After that, I felt so bored, so asked WJ and Boon out for ktv. We ended up at K box AMK. It was sooo expensive!! The most expensive ktv experience I had so far. Never going to go ktv last minute from now on, especially on a Sat night.

Anyway, we sang till 3am (since it’s so expensive, have to make it worth our money). Then, Boon says she’s hungry so we had supper at S11. In the end, ended up sleeping only at 4.15am. Next day have to get up at 9.30am for church. I was sooo tired by the time I finished lunch. Had actually thought of going bowling, but good thing no one interested, so it was cancelled.

I had a nap of 2 hours when I got home. When I woke up, I was feeling very grouchy. I think I didn’t sleep very well during the nap. Then, I went to bed at night at 12am. Now, I’m feeling so tired and sleepy at work. Worse, I don’t have anything to do to keep me occupied!! My goodness! Tired but can’t sleep and nothing to do. It’s a nightmare!!! I’m just waiting for time to pass quickly so I can go home and rest. *yawn*

I miss...

my two girls. Recently keep thinking of my 2 darlings, Kara and Brigid. Sometimes I think I dreamt of them, although not too sure about it when I woke up. I miss seeing Brigid hugging her baby, sucking her two fingers. And Kara with her ‘I love you’s and her hugs. Everyday I wish to call London and talk to them. However, they’re not really good talkers on the phone. Also, being on the phone with them, I’m able to hear and feel their lives over in London. Makes me want to be over there with them instead. Always after talking to them, I feel even sadder. So I have to control myself to not call them.

Anne sent me pictures of the girls during their recent vacation to Dubai. They have grown so much in the space of 6 months! Yap, it’s been 6 months since I last saw them in person. Kara has grown very tall. It’s makes me sad that they’re still so happy and able to grow so well even without me. Of course, I’m not wishing for otherwise. I guess with their young age, it’s easy to forget. This is something that I’ve known ever since I’ve learnt to love them back in USA.

I really miss the girls, the Lynchs, my friends and my life back in USA so much. Till now, I still can’t bear to look at pictures of the girls from the many albums I brought back. Even though physically I’ve moved on, what with new job and new schedule, emotionally I’m still not ready to move on.

How I do miss the girls….!!!

Trip to Bangkok

Finally able to blog after so long. Well, I still don’t have my own computer. But I have a job now!! Yeah! Congrat me! Not going to talk about my job cos that’s not what this blog is about. Want to know? Ask me lah! Hehe…

Well, from the title, this blog is about my trip to Bangkok last weekend(9-11 Mar). Though it’s just a short trip, it’s been a very, very long time since I went travelling with good friends, and I mean really good friends. Not once during the trip did I feel frustrated or angry or lonely. It’s been a trip that I thoroughly enjoy although it’s very tiring. During my travels in US and UK for the past 2 years, I have been forced by circumstances to travel with either strangers or try to get along with people I don’t really know very well of, that I call friends. While some of the experiences have been good, most of the time, I just feel so lonely. Being with people who don’t really understand you and know what you like or don’t like, it’s just a lot of give-and-take during the travels, which can be exhausting.

During this trip to Bangkok, I’m able to completely relax and let the guys(Dennis and Zhenchuan) plan our itinerary as they’ve been there not long ago and know where to go and where to eat. It’s a very nice feeling also, knowing that they’re my friends and if anything happens, they will try to protect me(as well as the other 2 girls, of course). During my travels alone, it’s everyone for themselves and you have to look out for yourself. If you run out of money, too bad! But during this Bangkok trip, we even borrowed and lent money among ourselves! (Talking about that, I just remembered that I still owe Zhenchuan money for the hotel and air-tickets. Oh well…)
