final few moments

i woke up this morning with mixed emotions. the first thing that came to mind was "hey..i'll be checking out of this apartment this evening..." and yet another thought seeped in.."3 more weeks b4 u hit home!"and yet again.."your last time in wildwood...".wow i was baffled..really..i just lay down, stretched and yawned, and simply relished in the thought that another chapter in my life is coming to a close. a brief phase of my life spent in that had brought so much joy..laughter..shivers..fears..apprehension..wonders...it's really hard to imagine i'll have to just let it go soon. i was at the beach the other day and i just scooped up some nice warm white sand and clenched my fist. upon opening my hand, the sand just drifted away in the wind..in a tranquil, subtle and natural manner. this is going to be how i'm going to leave wildwood. at peace with myself..at ease with my new friends..ready to go.

today the taiwanese girls came over..and really surprised us with a series of wonderfully cooked dishes. imagine my surprise when i came home from the bank and heard their familiar chatter and saw a mini feast spread out across the table.haha mini feast sounds ironic..well it involved quite a few dishes..AMAZING fried rice, beef wif green pepper, chicken soup, cabbage & carrots & bacon, brocolli and cauliflower. I mai tu liao (hokkien for "don't need to wait already") i wolfed in rite away..chomped and chomped..and the gals were just so happy to see that. they kept skipping ard in circles as leon and i tucked in ferociously. sounds abit silly rite?haha

well it's true.

anyway we were overcome with gratitude. leon mentioned that now we know thats the feeling like when someone cooks for u b4 u go.(cos last time we cooked for yenny and jenny). it just makes u feel so cared for..and plus the fact i was so delicious ..omg..so anyway after dat i decided to prepare something for them in return. due to a time constraint (they had work in 45min), i pulled upmy sleeves and started on my famous chicken pasta dish. really determined to give them a treat themselves for being just so sweet.

after months of gruelling training, i must say my cooking skills have improved. i can'twait to go home to cook for my family..like beef stew,szechuan spicy seafood soup, addictive fried rice, pasta, beefpepper rice, black pepper chicken. (doing this to make my parents drool..lol)

anyway..it was a nice feeling when i was done cooking and they tucked in. i think i'm really going to miss them..feel like a kor wif them somehow..lol. they're really bubbly and cute and bouncy. it's a pity i only have the chance to know them for a week or so...ayez~ so sweet..haha


the past few days can be summed up in 1 word --> relax. good because it was exactly what i wanted..to simply rest my body...chill out, relax my mind b4 i embark on my travelplans. bad because my pay check doesn't look too pretty. really didn't earn glamarously this week..haha..but who cares..i've ploughed in the earlier days,now is the time to relish in the summer mood...bo charp and have fun.

been having a few parties continuously..had one with the admissions pple yesterday..oh man mel whips up a tasty pasta i'm telling u..i call it heroin pasta..cos when u start on it u can't stop. tried to squeeze out some tips from her but she kept mom..and she left this morning..so..i guess i'll have to hunt for her again.haha~ tonight the taiwanese gang is coming over..a pretty large grp..so it's another chinese lesson for me again.hahaha..gd practice~ feeling kinda sleepy now tho..but i wanna spend 1 last sunset at the beach..just me and my boogie board this time. catch a few waves...whiff the salty air...kick thru the sand..and most imptly, admire the descent of the great red fireball down the atlantic ocea's horizon. last one i could see in wildwood...and it's about to happen in maybe 30min. so i'llbe headed down pretty soon. just had our stand by area by melissa from recruiting office..and we're officially gd to go. just waiting for the sun to rise tmr b4 we make our way to new york! bagpacker ready..all set to go..a new adventure of a lifetime awaits...

tonights dinner will consist of the remnants of food i still have..lol prob will be instant mee..and canned soup. going to take a long walk tonight..prob all the way to 1st street. i wanna think through all the gd/bad times i've had here..wanna look into the eyes of the people here tonight..and embed these memories into my heart.
cheers
p/s i'm seriously in a blogging mood tonight..will be back after going beach and my walk.
