to the Lawson's convenience store i pass by everyday,
Family Mart where i reload my IDD card,
ヤマザト&サノヤ where i do my grocery shopping,
subway station master,
security guard,
librarian,
teachers,
computer lab assistants...
my tatami mat, futon, study desk, laundry basket...
goodbye nagoya, sakae, kamimaezu, meieki, atsuta,
mizuho-ku, showa-ku, gokiso, yamazato, yagoto nisseki...

the hardest part is when it comes to your friends...
日本,台湾, america, the netherlands, belgium, thai, korea, indonesia,
poland, india, france, china, hong kong, ghana, nigeria, brazil, argentina...
friends whom you've shared 9months together...
comradeship... some of them, you might never have the chance to see 'em again...

ironic huh? you wanna go home, but you dont wanna go home...
loosing my marbles... one by one...
well, life is all about gains and loses huh?
you gain something, but you have to let go of some other things...
why cant we just have everthing we want when we want them and just the way we want them to be...

the sze hwei right now...
is different...
different from the sze hwei you thought you once knew...
so how have i changed?
i dont know... but i've changed somehow...
being exposed to a completely different culture, different set of values and norms...
you just change...

It is for the uncertainties, that life seems interesting and there lies the opportunities.

Only with comparisons - when we've been thru sweet and sour of life - we grow, we learn, we suffer, we treasure, we appreciate, we live.

Having to bid goodbye is always bitter, but then without goodbye, there may not be enough room for hellos. Furthermore, goodbye means we've lived and loved, let's meet again in the future, see the hope that motivates us on? Bitter gourd's proven good for health. Just eat. *hug*
