Big Baby

I'm having post-holiday stress. *chuckle* Is there such a thing?

Anyhow, I keep thinking of going back home. Though I AM going back in another month's time, I just can't help feeling and thinking that I should be back there NOW.

Again, I think this is a case of the grass being greener on the other side. I WAS back home for almost 2 years before I took the decision to study again. And that whole time, I kept complaining about the place. It doesn't have a bookstore. It doesn't have a movie theater (well.. it DIDN'T, now it does, so I can scratch that off the list). It doesn't have sushi (Okay, they do already, but it's freaking expensive). *sigh*

What DOES it have?

Family.

I guess all those years that I was here before, I didn't really feel the distance, cause there would always be one or another of my siblings around. Now, I am absolutely alone.

(This is where a self-pitying theme song plays through the background.)

*sigh*

I hate these kinda days. But I'm just going to feel it, as a way of venting, so it doesn't fester. =D I wouldn't want it to escalate to some feeling of absolute resentment towards this city.

Besides, this place does have it's appeal. There are bookstores practically everywhere! *drool* Anytime I'm bored, I can just head on over to one of them and spend anywhere from 10 minutes to 2 hours in there. =D Goodie.

I realise that this post makes me sound like a baby. But who cares. I'm depressed. I say that I deserve to behave like one.

At least until the end of the week. =P
