yet another hour, yet another day.
played my last badminton match of the chinese new (old) year..
and i'm going to miss it so much.
3 months has flown by just in a blink of the eye, and in 8 days time,
i'll be on the plane and on my way back to aussieland.
when i was still in aussieland, i told people that i preferred s'pore to there
because it was more accessible, food or transport wise. however, when i
got back here, i preferred aussieland more, haha what a contradiction. i think
it was cause of the heat, BUT, as time passed, i realised i preferred s'pore once again.
seems like i just can't make up my own mind. i've been thinking what made me change
my mind so many times, and i think i know why now.
i would say that i'm able to adapt quite well to changes, so as long as
i'm used to one place, i'll start thinking that that place itself is better hence the
always changing mindset. by being back in singapore, i started to realise the stuffs
that i've missed out on while i was away. many of you would think that food would
be a huge factor for me just because i love to eat (i'm fat i know), but it never was.
i've said i can adapt and even if that means missing out on Char Kuay Teow and whatnots,
i still can. nonetheless, the food here is still much cheaper than in aussie. Of course, i
can't stop you from thinking that i'm lying and that food is most important to me.
i've been thinking whether i should stay on in aussieland to get my PR and to find work
once i've graduated, i would say the idea sounds tempting, especially since the pay
is generally higher. i've had many people say i would definitely stay there, get married
to an angmoh, and not come back anymore since angmo is better than local, and
OF COURSE, that is true. but would i do that? at the end of the day, no matter what
shortcomings, no matter what memories i have here (good or bad) or how inferior
people think s'pore is compared to aussie, this is where HOME is.
no matter how many years i would work there for, at the end of the day, this is where
i will come back to. why would i not? my friends are here, my badminton kakis are here
(HAHA how can i leave out badminton), my families ARE here.
there's only 1 condition in which i would stay permanently in aussie, and that is if
my mum manages to get her PR too.
or MAYBE, everything is said too early, and who knows, i may change my thinking
as time goes by hahaha. we'll see! ;p
8 days to go!...can't say i'm really really looking forward to it though. LOL
