Home Away..

This is my third week away from home and I'm feeling really homesick. *sigh* I have no one to talk to and I figured out that the blog was the only place I could go to. Here, I just wanna let it all out. Pour away my sadness and all this nonsense. Being away from home isnt easy. Nobody said it could be this tough.

A friend who is actually in the same shoes as me, said this to me and I find it pretty true. She said the words that I couldnt put my finger onto it for a while. "Talking to your loved ones on the phone just feels so unreal and surreal". I personally find that it just isnt enough. Skyping and talking on the phone is only a short term remedy. Whenever the call ends, it hits us hard again. And this goes on and on and on..

One thing I never really understand is that why some teenagers want to break out from their family so badly. The pursuit of freedom & independence, some say. Is it really that important? Point is, you may be away from home, free from your naggy parents BUT to them, you'll always be their child. The little kid they love. My point here is that some people like me for instance, want to be nagged and cared so f**king badly. Now that I know I wasn't ready to live a life alone out in the foreign country but everything is done now. Theres no turning back.

However, I understand, as a grown young adult, that sometimes I need to leave my comfort zone in order to grow. To grow into a mature young man who could differentiate whats right from wrong. Hmm. Thank you, mom & dad. I love you.

I miss you, dad. I miss sitting outside with you, talking bout anything at all. Small talks.

I miss you, mom. I miss annoying you in the kitchen. Most importantly, I miss your cooking.

I miss you, sis. I miss watching movies with you and of course, mommy & daddy.

I miss you, guys. I really do...

Love,

George
