i'll be home

the 10 day extension here has been amazing. whether or not i'm ready, come 2135, i'll be on that plane.

as how it normally is, the moment i'm about to step into the plane, with a deep breath inhaled and exhaled, words that run through my mind are, "let's do this. Melbourne is home for the season."

Looking at the above and the previous post, it seems as if i dread Melbourne. No, i don't. Just as i have things that i miss and am looking forward to in Melbourne, there are things that i will surely miss here in Malaysia. That's hard to leave behind. Family who will always be there. Friends that we've reminisced the past with. Crazy school life, crazy church life. Looking through old photos and laughing at ourselves silly. Picking up from where we left off and getting closer and growing from there.

So, don't get me wrong people, Melbourne is great! REALLY GREAT! If it ever occurs that it's time to leave Melbourne for good, it definitely won't be an easy thing to do. Is that convincing enough?

Melbourne, it's time to pick up from where we left off. I'll be home soon!
