‘Twas the night before leaving.And I’m in such a goddamn grumpy mood.
I don’t even know why!
Maybe it’s because I’m panicking that I might be overweight (Does Thai Airways really only allow 20kg of luggage?), that I haven’t finished packing, that my room is a mess, and I’m worrying there I won’t be able to go online very much in Japan (pai seh ok if keep using people’s connection!)
But let’s put that aside because I always planned to do an emo post (REAL emo post!) looking back on the year and thinking of what I did and learnt etc.
I know la normally people write this kinda stuff on New Year’s Eve. I wanna write it now can or not? Since this is the start of a new school year (I am so nerdy).
I am so nerdy that when I was like 2-3 years old, my mother had to lie to me and tell me that I was going to school and pack my desk and everything when in actual fact, she was sending me to my babysitter. Only then would I agree and get willingly into the car.
But I digress.
I actually learned a lot this summer.
For the first time in my life, I worked for something that I wanted, i.e. to go to Melbourne to visit Si Yeff.
And I made enough to actually do it! *pats self on back*
I met lots of people while working! A lot of interesting people, nice people. Quite worth my time ok wtfl.
I learned how to speak Cantonese! Ok la my Cantonese still sucks ass la, but a lot of people I worked with are worse in English than I am in Cantonese so I had to learn.
I learned how to say “Hoi Ngoi Tien” (Restoran Overseas) and Tiger Prawn in Cantonese but apparently I’ve been saying it wrong all this while. How to say it again?
I learned how to stay at home more and teman Mummy and Daddy Ooi. And to appreciate them more.
I learned that people change including yourself. And that it isn’t really anyone’s fault.
I learned that sometimes some things belong to your past and if it’s time to let go then let go and don’t whine.
I learned that the person you didn’t like at first can turn out to be your best friend.
And that you don’t need ages to be best friends if she’s as stupid as you.
But apparently I haven’t learned to pack quick enough.
Time to go.
Pray that I will have internet connection and I get to blog because I’m a real blogger at heart wtf.
No la I only want connection so I can menDarren wtf.
Bye!
