Another Chinese New Year is coming

Hmm... it's almost CNY again, another one in London.
A lot of people would say, miss home so much, or ask me whether I miss home.
I'm actually taking it quite well, just need a proper CNY eve dinner, was lucky to get invited over to one of my friend's place last year. Not quite sure what the plan would be this year.

Another CNY symptom that I get is, I crave for the festive cookies, even though I wasn't a big fan. I will irrationally buy more than I can eat, like now, 2 more weeks to CNY, i already buy 2 small boxes and 1 bottle, that is already around £7.50. But if that helps, why not? Still much better than feeling depressed in the festive season (which is not even a bank holiday, or a day that I can freely take off)

Anyway, let's see what happens this CNY! My guess is, nothing much, never really like to go join the crowd in parades and shows

8 weeks away

3 weeks ago....'Today I noticed something, and was telling everyone about it.. I can see my last day on Retain in a singles screen... means it's not far away, to be specific, it's 11 weeks away.'

Blame it on the computer that hang on me... I still have not and publish this post.


Now... I finally gathered enough determination to finish off this post
Suddenly it feels like it's way too soon, although sometimes I can't wait.. or to some extent dreaded the days to go to work..
I can't imagine how would it be, when I go back. But it's the consequences that I've committed to take. At some point last year, I sort of regret the whole decision. But then again, the other side of the argument (I can come here on my own) is just not too applicable in my case, I don't think I can just drop everything and come without committing to a ETA (estimated time to go home), besides, it was never in the grand plan.

Anyway, here I am, making plans to go back already, and making plans for every single weekend left, to enjoy some London experience. Don't think I can do too much though, have to be really selective in what I do.

Till the next time!
