my favourite thing...

I suddenly realise how my friends and family members are really scattered everywhere across the globe.

it's a funny feeling.

i suddenly realise that wanting to not miss anyone at any particular moment can be pretty hard.

i'm home, but i'd be gone soon. last weekend in kuching, but i don't feel like meeting up with people, just spend sometime with family.

see, when you meet up with people and you actually connect, it feels like you leave a part of yourself with them, and take a part of them with yourself.

and when you have connections all around, there's a piece of you in every corner of the world, and with you, many pieces of many people. many pieces i treasure deeply.

even if i don't meet a friend ever again, i still hold that piece from him or her. memories, bonds, in a way, the pieces define me and my life as time goes by. each piece come together like a jigsaw puzzle, forming who i am. but not being able to be together with all the contributors of these pieces, can be a tad sad.

to all my friends reading, regardless of where you are. this goes out to you. i know i'm not really making sense here, my writings muddled up, but that's what feelings are like, often owing reason and often muddled up.

MY favourite things

Blue skies and sunshine and a cup of teh c,
rows of hawker stalls selling kolo mee,
sarawak laksa, the joy that it brings,
these are a few of my favourite things.

durian and mangosteens, oh and some longans,
guavas and mangos, red sweet rambutans
all the great fruits make me wanna sing,
these are a few of my favourite things.

when i'm frost bite,
when i'm homesick,
when i'm feeling sad,
i simply remember my favourite things,
and then i'd feel HUNGRY!!!

funny, i've never intended it to be all food. oh well...
