Yes, I'm still here. Bored as hell. Rotting in everyday sameness. Haha Just haven't been very motivated to blog recently becuase after the excitement of settling down in a new place wears off, it becomes 'everyday' and 'boring' again.. So it's been work, finding new work, work. AND the same show is still showing at the theatre only without random bra throwing incidents.
So I know SIm and Li are having fun in Oz. Jing is going for a Survivor camp job interview. TEll me all about it soon, when you guys get back to civilization. I love being a tourist. It is like suddenly gonig into this weird zone of non-accessbility. It's sop hard to get you and for you to get your familiar friends and family. And finding yourself waking up in places without much memory. Crazily roaming streets, and sticking out like sore thumbs among locals. Getting lost--my favorite part of it all. Feeling a little apprehensive, relying on trust of other's good will and your own foreigner's instincts. (So unreliable and adventurous)
Me. Still the same old. Made a couple of new friends, but heck friendship takes time and hard work not ot mention chemistry and in my case, a good ear for accents, and learning to speak like them just ot be understood.
When I use to say 'just opposite this street'. People here give me weird looks. "Opposite?" Oh you mean "across." "Right, Exactly."
I'm starting to turn Buddhist too. Lots of patience, and nonchalance, when a bus comes every half an hour, and then it is so full-packed, you can't get on it. It is like being in a "First-world' Country with third-world transportation. I think : "Cattle trains" every morning to work.. and The buses stink of Marijuana at the back. Then there are cursing African Americans who uses fo many F word in a sentence, if you take away the f words, they only said three words which mattered.
So I am kind of drifting along... Dreaming of moving out, but hardly having the resources.. well till next time when I get bored at work and find blogging a better alternative to decorating hospital corridors.
