saying goodbye? idk.....


SIgh. Iam back. so sian. school's starting way too soon. I miss the weather there. seriously i mean here we go into the shopping centre to cool down. There we go into the shopping centre to warm up. The photo was taken while i was in a boat on the erm, 3rd day? it was the Yiwu cruise. went to woozy( sorry wuxi) on the 5th day.. the pearl factory, which was good but all the guys were pretty bored..cant blame them:)I managed to take a few funny photos of the direct translation from chinese to english, cant post them now.. its in the camera:( but one was written : ( in chinese) xiao xin de hua ( in english) be careful of landslide. i mean, de=land, hua=slide. :)

I realise that its a hundred times harder to say goodbye to someone when u know its almost impossible that you'll see them again..We know the usual sayings," We'll keep in touch!" and the usual exchange of phone numbers or email addresses only provides the psychological comfort of not losing each other entirely. But as time goes by we soon realise that it becomes harder and harder to comply with what one has said to the other, and soon the words are forgetten. I think the hardest of all is when friends are made on a short term notice, eg. holiday, because we dont see each other on a day to day basis. I think it really is because once the duration of the tour is over, we end up saying goodbye and shedding hot tears over the seperation of friendship.

As the saying goes, it takes two hands to clap. therefore, it takes 2 to keep a friendship. one person can we enthusiastic but if the other person doesnt quite keep up, the friendship can be broken as easily a cotton thread. Iam not saying that all friendships dont turn out well. Some do, and i realise its because apart from the fact that we dont meet each other all the time. Aiya. i hope this one turnes out though. I really do...

Oh man. Iam repeating myself. aiya iam talking crap la. better end off before i say more crap. sigh........
