back in the UK

IT's amazing how often I fly these days... it used to be like an annual or bi-annual affair. Now I am flying like 10 times a year; 6 to UK and back, 2 to Japan and 2 or more to other Asian locations where my mom decides to take the family to.

On a separate note, everything feels well back to normal. It's strange how I was pondering on the surreal feeling of being so attached in SG that I can't imagine my life back here and now that I am back here it feels altogether unimaginable that I felt that way in SG.

I look forward to almost a month in Japan. It would definitely feel nostalgic after a year of not being in there. I still wonder about the magic that allures me to the place; something I thought I had it figured back in 2007 and told my friends that I am jumping to a new country to explore. Clearly it's impossible that I would be able to find some place better.

I need a good retreat after these exams... to consolidate my thoughts. Been having periods of long thought about certain unresolved issues in life, and constantly dreaming about them just shows to me that I can never run away from them and that the urgency of resolving them is high.

I dream of her, my mp3 player sings songs which remind me of her and certain words relate to her. And yet it was my choice to brush her off. Was it right of me to be so selfish then? Clearly such memories will continue to haunt me for life.

Trip to Japan

Ok, made some plans tentatively for this summer's trip to Japan...

Osaka/Kansai > Kanazawa > Yamanashi > Tokyo

Val and WC are saying that they wanna come together for the first week... it seems like this year would be shorter than most - being only about 3 weeks... maybe I might plan another in December if I am not planning to come back to SG...

It's so depressing to imagine that it's gonna be a long while before I go but it's somewhat refreshing to know it's gonnabe different as Ayuka and Keiko mentioned something about a road trip this time!!!

Gonna have to get prepared for the excruciating heat that everyone complains about; tells me how long it has been since I last visited Japan in summer - last year's kinda not summer as it was like... mainly in Hokkaido

international law

I am seriously wondering why I am taking such a long time to write this essay... it's supposed to be fun and fast and yet procrastination gets the best of me... however, it's a good thing that I am trying to piece everything together today... decided that I'd finish up the international humanitarian bit and the recognition and declaration bit by tonight... and hopefully if time permits, the env bit too and that would leave me with just conclusion and intro!

OMG part 2

Home

Just when I thought I was having the time of my life (independence, overseas education etc) I begin to do a little searching deeper within... I may dislike the thought of living in Singapore for numerous reasons but then when I went back in Dec, I saw it in a totally different light... much different from how I used to see it when I wanted to get out badly. Was I really pursuing my dream? Or was it simply out of envy of my sis who was overseas?
