home is where the heart belongs
After being away for 10 months, it feels helluva good to be back once again. I was so eager to leave home 3 years ago and I was ready knowing that I've been stuck in this country long enough. Well, the grass is always greener on the other side. After a while, I realized that I do actually miss home and I'm always looking forward to summer break.
The tangible things that I miss about home:
- pillow talk with dearest sisters
- mummy's cooking
- cheap hawker food: roti canai, teh tarik, laksa, etc despite the fact that I've been getting diarrhoea for the past few days as a results from eating out too much but it's ALL worth it. i just tend to..umm.. go to toilet more often, that's all
- Starbucks' skinny latte (I know I'm a sucker for commercialized coffee and having had Gloria Jeans, The Merchant and Dome's coffee for the past 10 months are more than enough!)
- retail therapy: enough said, it's heaven!
- moi favourite Cartier Menthol. The fact is, cigarettes are 5 times cheaper back home. And I get what I want back here
- moi usual dosage of Malibu & Coke at Chili's
Life seems good for the moment.
