Another Friday down

I have 2 fridays more officially, farewell treats have started, have been eating non stop, all those pounds I shed the past months are back on I think, gosh. Havent gone to the gym since my membership empired in mid May. More to treats come, next week seems to be packed. Ive been in school past 2 days trying to clear my desk and area, its not happening, 9 yrs worth of things, in between distracted by colleagues who are back to get some work done and prepare for school re-opening. There is talk that the 1st week may be off, due to the HIN1 virus. Still waiting for directions from MOE. Im chatting with a chap from fropper.com, a married one, he asked what im looking for in fropper, threw the question back at him since he is the married one, he laughed it off. Funny people, there are so many of these social netwroking platforms nowadays, dont even know how I got into this one, must be invites from friends I suppose, I dont even keep track of these sites and these people. Last night, my cousin blurted out that she has become aloof with men nowadays. As I sat there listening to her, I could identify myself with everything she was saying. Ive become like that too, aloof, disinterested and distant. We concluded that we are just too happy with the way our lives are going and have become very comfortable with being single and probably waiting for destiny to play its part.

Met up with L two days back, he bought me food, with him food was always plenty, he probed about V, I just shrugged it off, well V was the reason I missed L's wedding in Jan 08, bcos V was in town that period. As we parted, L gave me a hug and asked me to take care of myself. L is happily married, Im happy for him.

Its amazing how when you are single, you want to be attached and at the same time, my married pals would anytime want to trade places with me. They envy my freedom and the fact that I am bold enough to drop everything and go for something else altogether. As Im clearing my things here, its slowing sinking in that there is only 2.5 weeks left, the number of people Im leaving behind to live alone in a foreign land, the bouquet on my table from R who passed away 3 yrs back, the photos of my family and friends....gosh what have I gotten myself into!
