baggage.

since i've been home, i've run around ss18 with anthea, had chicken/char siew rice, met up with mel and ying, yum cha-ed, been to a bar/club, had pork noodles, cut my hair, gotten a new phone number (using my first ever phone!), had a home-cooked meal (which included prawn sambal... mm.),had chee cheong fun, been to the market, driven a car, played the guitar and sang (or at least tried to) with anthea, attended the prefects' reunion, been "surprised" by dav (=P), been to church, met up with my dad's side of the family, cooked a pretty elaborate father's day dinner with anthea and sam, my cousin, and mamaked with jiat, ben nett, yih ren, mav and dav.

it always amazes me how it feels like i've always been home when i get back, and how with most people it feels like we didn't just spend nine months or more apart. most. but i was prepared for some emotional distance and guardedness, i guess.

what i haven't done is unpack. =(

"i count the steps, the distance to the time when it was me and you,
so far gone,
another face, another friend, another place, another end.
but i'll play on
and it's a winding road, and it's a long way home.

so don't wait for someone will tell you it's too late
'cause these are the best days
there's always something tomorrow
so i say let's make the best of tonight
yeah,let's make the best of tonight
here comes the rest of our lives,
the rest of our lives."

- best days, graham colton.
