Looking for something specific?
My sister just sent me this photo. I can’t stop looking at it because it’s going to be a long time before I actually go back home again.
Even though it’s been more than 2 months since I left, I can still remember how my last day in Singapore was spent - crazy mad rush to buy a rice cooker, wait for Aunty Alice to come to vivo to help me pick one. Text Mao to ask if he can get me a laptop case. Rush home to pack my hand carry bag only to find that I can’t find my big Deuter backpack. My sister finds the Deuter for me while I take a shower, timecheck: 6pm. Rush to pack winter sweaters and a rice cooker into the Deuter and then hurryscurry down to Changi Airport to meet everyone else by 8pm for dinner. Still no laptop case, get desperate and text kach and chris. Dinner at popeye’s and I can’t find a table that fits everyone. Find one, sit down and uncessfully try to pay for everyone’s food. Take out all the important stuff from my wallet and pass them to my mum. Get ordered by Ben to go down to listen to a song for me by him, anna and brendon. My sister insists I take pictures (I’m so grateful to her for that) Talk to people and then my family hurries me off to the boarding gate. There’s too little time! Ben insists that I take his laptop case. Met Klar there and just before we walk through the gates, I see Klar tearing out of the corner of my eye. The thought of not being home for a year hits me and I want to cry. Instead I bite my lip and hand my passport over to the policeman. He hands it back to me and motions for me to go in.
