Aa ab laut chalein

Tired. Sleep-deprived. Nervy. Hungry. Irritable. Crazy. Anxious. A week of farewell dinners. Loads of calories. 4 suitcases of packing. Loads of tension. Farewell party with friends at Lan Kwai Fong yesterday. HK Rugby Sevens weekend... seemed like the whole city was invited to celebrate my depature. Hmmm. Couldnt enter Insomnia. Queuing up aint my thing I think. Went to the least popular place instead. Beirut. Did something for the first time in my life. Tried a hukkah. Very weird. Wont do again. Slept for 4 hours. Packed-up the house. Donated a lot of stuff. Airport pickup arrives in 45 minutes.

Cant wait to get home now.
Phew!

Hmm.. hukkah is a bit weird. It went straight for my throat. I didn't like it too much either.
Ps: all the best sweetie. We'll still see you around, right?

hukkah is fun. oonce in a bit. hardly real anymore. fruity flavours and all.

also, i don't think place matters when you have company and reason, no? (my hair colour seems to have made me very wise)

how is going back?

RBT,
Thanks :)

Once Again,
Oh well, I didnt try for hours. Just a bit, for adventure's sake :)

Jupiter,
:D

Cowlick,
Of course you'll still see me around... just back in Singapore, where they do have internet and blogger ;)

Garima,
I'm back to Singapore.. which is kind of second home. Of course, India continues to be the real 'home' :)

SS,
Thanks for the advice. Will definitely bug you when I need more help on the training!

Wishful,
Dudette, eh ;)

Archster,
Oh well, its only half-home anyway.

Burf,
For?

Me,
Safe, though tiring. What with the excess baggage and all ;)

Apy,
Its okay, atleast someone is happy ;)

Megha,
Oh well, nothing great, but can try.

Bgfs,
This one wasnt flavoured though.
Of course company matters, but there is definitely more to a city than just the people we know, isnt it? And what colour is the hair now?

M,
When do you get home (wherever home is)?
PS: Is this M, softly tread upon?

Khizzy,
Well, Singapore is kind of second home. Though home and family is in India, have been in SG for a good few years now. And yes, Jupiter is back to being my housemate now :)

Many apologies for not commenting for so many days - have been reading but just not saying anything. Silently lurking ard the blogspace these days...

SO you too headinh 'home' - is 'home' the motherland home, or some other replacement home?

Hate packing up in the sense of packing to move on - always feel like I leave a part of me behind. An irreplacable part of me. Sigh.

Gee,
No apologies please, silent lurking is also encouraged ;)
Back in Singapore - the second home. Motherland, well, as of now, will only return there for holidays to visit the family. But back to Spore for good.

Ekta,
If you went to Ebeneezers on a friday night, you would have caught me tucking in their biryani with gusto. Absolutely love it! As for the offer to meet up... ouch, just missed it. Back to Singapore for good. Wont be going to HK for some time now... wish we could have caught up while I was still there.
