September Day 28/29

Day 28, I was still in a state of floating after struggling to get some good rest. Gave up in the end but to my rescue were Kat, Sean and Edwin! We spent an evening eating, talking and laughing. Someone new wanted to take a look at my place. It is now up to Kat. The new Thai girl sounded too innocent and thrifty. Other than that, she seems pretty pleasant.

Day 29, I spent almost a day packing in details. Now I am only left with clothes that I have difficulty filtering. Which ones to go by cargo? Arghh. Then came my skincare and makeup items. Though I packed them, I got nausea separating them into groups. The question of which ones should go by cargo, which not is killing me. I need to make space for my check in luggage and yet making sure the items in there are what I need initially when I arrive. I really cannot judge how long they will take in delivering the cargo to me. Being a girl, there are so many "I need" items. My boxes are of no news. Soon please...

Caught up with Marcus today. He seems down and lost. Hoping this long term friend of mine will pick up his pieces.

Ramadan is ending. Partying is starting. Looking forward to meet up with the peeps before I really bid farewell.

Uber is struggling in India. No proper Internet in hotel, traffic jams and I can imagine the many more he has to face. As long as he is healthy...

Missing the heartbeats.

September Day 27

After about 36 hours of staying awake, with non-stop eating. I finally got some disrupted sleep. Not good at all. With AV pain on top of it!

My mind and body is no longer at a normal pace for now. Help!

Guess I will have to force self to bed. Kidnap Zzzz Monster for now to keep recovering!

Missing becomes worrying.

September 24/25/26

My final to Nagoya. My mind was set in catching up with my sleep there. However, I ended up at the Sky View Lounge in Hilton Nagoya with a few others. Great overview of Nagoya on the 28th. With a great band, we went on with more than just two glasses of beer. I was close to drinking with my eyes closed. It was a great night with fun people at least.

I woke up feeling really tired and lack of rest. Went to the supermarket and then prepared self for work again.

Mixed feelings, final lap. Somehow lost. The fears of many unknowns. I see the coming days filled with tying the ends of the end here.

Missing. Some things are just missing. I wonder and sway but holding on to some faith. The distance is no longer just distance. Distant it has become.

September Day 23

Pimple, ulcer and what have I? PMS. I hate it most! Especially the constant food for comfort. The aches, tiredness, however sleepless when it draws nearer. Cannot wait for "aunt visit" this time. Just want it to be over and then I can focus on tying the ends here.

Had heartaches moments today after passing some stuff to Kat. She cried and I hugged her, then tears built in my eyes too. Well, time has drawn so close that everything is clearer. To draw attention away from this sad topic, she cooked. Had some sort of seafood fried toast, jello with fruit cocktail and ice cream, pcft late at night. Then both of us caught a girlie movie, "Definitely, Maybe," with good twists, romance comedy. Along with us were lemon mint tea and crackers from Japan. How Girlie!

I was already feeling very tired towards the end of the movie. Slept and woke up after awhile though. Arghh...

Uber revealed his mobile bills. OMG, it is equivalent to a pouch from LV! Due to his overseas posting, there was less time on msn, so phone call was the only communication tool. Luckily for us, it will not be long before all this expenses end. Soon soon, I will be home soon!

From a distance, the way seems long, time seems slow. Missing. Will I recognise and still know him as him?

September 19/20/21/22

Met Christina on my last to Korea, visited JJ at Hyatt Hotel. A club within the hotel - live band, main hall and outdoor. Drinks were pretty expensive. However, the crowd was a good mix of locals and foreigners, and of different age group.

I went shopping for my mask sheets and walked around the next day. Being sleepless for a few days, I felt as if I was floating. Finally caught my sleep back on the 22nd. I cannot believe myself sometimes. At least I feel better after the snoozing for a day.

I am lucky to say that I will be heading to Nagoya next. Not as happening there, hopefully my colleagues will add some fun!

Counting down to the last lap of September, knowing that it is going to be very tedious running the errands here in Dubai. Just hope I will be blessed with smooth operations.

Cannot wait to be back as well. Though the stress that has been building up is there, I know the love back home will make things right. Most of all, mum will be the happiest this year!

Missing keeps growing. The last lap is here...
