i just read my sister's blog and realised
how much family stuff i'm missing out on.
calvin's sports day, the pool table in the hall
(very weird concept), and so many new and
unexpected things happening in the house.

i guess i always thought things would be the same
and there wouldn't be any major changes you know?

but now i see the kids growing up and
it's a bit sad that i'm not a part of their lives at all.

):

the second question i get asked the most
(after 'are you from america?' grrr.)
is if i plan to go home after i graduate.

and for now, that's a resounding yes!

because i love it here but not enough to stay forever.

and because no matter what anyone says,
and no matter how terrible the political situation gets,
malaysia is still the best place to live in.
