My "land of the rising sun" days are over, from day one till the last day (extended), those memories, I will keep close with me where ever I go from now on. Except maybe for being icky and sweaty from miles of walking and the heat. :P
Its finally over, still wasn't ready to leave. How I wished time stood still, and I wake up everyday to the scenes I see for the past month. Some of the best times in life, waking up in the morning and being happy. Parting was never easy.
We did a lot of things. We traveled, sit on long train journeys, slept between stations, Sat on the shin, wondering if we were actually going over 300km/h walked everywhere, saw temples and shrines, wasted money on shopping, checked out chicks, tandem cycled like japs, walked in the rain, blown by the wind, ate at food stalls by the river, bought ramen coupons form vending machines, imitate Japanese gestures.. and tried to talk jap :P, I had to carry her stuff twice cuz she got posted to Fukuoka. Moved twice :P carried a couch she bought 2nd hand on the subway, came home sweaty and icky.. but that was just half the fun.
We also argued, we faught, we forgave, we cried but then we laughed about it after, and still keep the fond memories. I still yearn to not leave, hoping that my return was a dream. But I guess I have to face reality, at least for now. My last hurdle for uni... then freedom
This past month was great! I feel like as though we have our own little home, but me being the ahmah :P cooking and cleaning up, laundry, cutting lunch/dinner and shopping... It was fun.. I can imagine our little home.
was it worth it, you ask? I would say yes, without a doubt! :) Well, keep waiting babe, Im coming back for more...
