last day in sg

Yes, another thing I will definately miss in France:

DURIAN PUDDING.

Had a little farewell supper with my lovely church mates at fongseng.=) I initially cancelled it due to something that cropped up, but still managed to pop by to say bye to everyone.

Ok peps. This is it; my last blog post written here in sg.

How do I feel? I'm feeling both sad and scared; sad to leave everything here, my friends and family. Scared because it's a new land where I am a minority, and where I will have cope with a new language. Of course, other demons that I will have to fight: the food, having to be independent, the bitter cold weather, the loneliness, and being poor. I'll definately be displaced from my comfort zone. Yea, I blew 9.5k to make myself miserable. ha ha ha.

What do I hope to get outta SEP? (I know everyone is saying "a french bf")
A new perspective of life, a new outlook on life, probably work out some goals in life I wanna achieve (though I have more or less done so), sort out confusions of the heart, think about what I reeeeeeally reeeeeeeally want in life.
Deep stuff, huh. And of course, make lots of international friends, do some travelling, learn to cook/clean/wash/iron/fold clothes/manage a living space.

Thanks for all your smses and well wishes and prayers, people. I'll bring back some smelly cheese for you guys. I'll be making a few trips to Paris to meet various groups of family members and probably Milan(backpacking), so tell me what LV/YST/Agnes b/chanel/miumiu/gucci shits you want. Yes, the land of branded goods. AND YES YOU WILL HAVE TO PAY ME BECAUSE I CANT BUY LV KEYCHAINS FOR EVERYONE.(some joker asked me to buy chanel sunglasses for him) -___-

Ok i'll end off with a verse that my dad picked out for our family farewell worship that gives me comfort in my weary/sad/worried/whatever soul.
"I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go;
I will counsel you and watch over you."
- Psalm 32:8

Seeya in Lyon, guys.
