Yep, I am here again, and this time, I am not counting down the days before I return to Singapore, it would be simply depressing! The thankful thing is that I am living in a hostel, so the 3 meals a day, basic internet access (It's really basic! What can you do with a 400MB quota -_-) and a tiny room. Ok maybe not so much about the tiny, but hey, it's convenient!
Somehow, it seems like I am the only non-local (or if there are non-locals, then I am the only Asian) to be in this hostel. I thought I would be able to comprehend the English spoken by them easily, but apparently it's not the case, and I need to ask them to repeat a couple of times before I get it. This kind of prevented long conversations, and yep, it's kind of lonely here despite all the people around me. Hopefully this will change when I meet up with the Christian fellowship people from Singapore, as well as when the actual course starts.
I guess it's this kind of situation when you really appreciate the things you have around you, and never really appreciated. The simple greeting from friends, your family asking how your day had been, your parents' smiles, chatting with friends... But yep, I guess this is a necessary phrase in life, and I hope that I can get over this soon.
