return
Seems like a long long time ago when I wrote my last entry about feelings of sadness about closing another chapter in my life from being done with school for now. And so much things have happened in between; its been such a whirl. I vaguely remember taking my last ever finals, flying off to Alaska, coming back to graduate. Being fussed over in the gown and tassel outfit, packing my belongings and vacating my beloved room, enjoying the peace and quiet in Ithaca for the very last time and saying goodbye to New York for good.Today its goodbye to Europe. Over the past 6 weeks, I've moved from city from city; starting west from Portugal and heading all the way to inland to Switzerland where I will be flying home from Zurich tomorrow morning. Spent the first half of my holiday tanning by the beaches and the last half walking around very old cities and staring at monuments/churches/statues which have been quite an overkill.
For the past 6 weeks, I've been dreaming about good food and the affordable Singapore lifestyle. I think my trip/life overseas has really come to an end and its time for me to stop gallivanting around the world and return home to assume some responsibilities. At first it seemed okay to leave Ithaca because there would be this whole extended Eurotrip to look forward to instead of having to uproot myself immediately back to the place of crazy humidity and exhausting crowds. And today as we walked around the streets of Zurich, it dawned on me that this is it and I am going home to embark on another phase of my life.
Good things do come to an end, ain't it so?
