hmm... i've been back for 2 weeks already!! feels like i've been back for a very long time already.... upon landing in changi airport, my 1st sg purchase was chivas for billy's dad... haa... within 2 weeks here, i've bought myself lots of food (billy bought me more!) and 2 clothes already!! muahahhaaa... shopping is so good and shiock here... the 1st few days when im back, i tried to do whole day shopping... cos when i was in australia, i always tot its so dumb that the shops have to close at 5pm, but now that im back, i find myself too tired to continue shopping after 5pm! haha!!
i've been gone for only 10months but even im amazed at how different things really are as how i've remembered... or probably amazed at how adapted i was to aussie life... some few things that striked me was how short and stout our traffic lights are here! haha!! the round face with the red or green man leh... its so big and round in sg!! and the whole traffic light pole is so short it feels** like i can reach it.. haa... (but obviously, i cant... :s) i was also quite amused with our banga construction workers... all dark and dark.. haa... construction workers in aussie are big, tall ang mos - so imagine the contrast! also my breathing was so accustomed to aussie air too i actually need my asthma preventer seretide to help me deal with difficulty with breathing... den my nose allergy almost caused my nose to drop that i now have to use a nasal spray thingy.. den even my eyes got allergic and was prescribed some expensive eye drops that now i think probably shouldn't have been so expensive... all my medical bills added up to 150 bucks liao lor... aiyo... and the weather is sooo warm! hotter than i remembered!! i wonder how i survived in jeans all the time in the past... before i went to aussie i even wore long sleaves and jackets sometimes in sg...!
but being back is soo nice too... no worries about sms-ing pple short texts like "ok" or "ya"... haa... no need to wash my own dishes... always can bug billy on the phone... can start shopping at 7pm, eat dinner and have bus stopping rite outside house at 12am... woo hoo!!! nice to start serving again in church, serving the church i love... nice to worship in chinese... rev ng's chinese is still the same too.. haa! nice to be in pastor ivy's office... my oh-so-ever-comfy bed... sleeping in air con!! no worries about electricity... HEE... ability to explore beyond my own wardrobe into my sisters' ones... being back is still better... :)
yeah, looking forward to meeting more frens and relatives now... everybody's having exams or busy with some things now...
Love Is In The Air!
