Sunday Musings

Nothing much new lately. And I won't even start about work. That's guaranteed to either bore or irritate you. And I'd rather keep work-related stories private if I can help it. Whether or not am happy with it or people at work. hehe!

The only thing that stands out lately is that it seems all my friends have been leaving the country one by one. Even some cousins. To the US, Canada, Singapore, New Zealand, Australia. That's just this year alone. I'm sad 'cause it'd be a while before I may see them again. Will miss them.

Am alone at home. With just the pet dogs Whitey and Rainey for company (but Whitey's at the garage, and Rainey's out in the living room). It's so quiet, the Sunday sort of quiet without anyone else in the house.

And I don't feel like going out because it's just too hot. And have been getting fewer friends to go out of town with since they are or have been leaving the country one by one. I should be next! hehe!

A uni in the UK wants me to send some documents for a post-grad degree. Not yet sure if I should take them up on that. Since London seems like a theme park, and not as safe as I'd like. Am not a big city girl maybe. :P Always enjoyed the smaller cities more in Europe.

train window. They use rapeseed for biofuels.

Stuff I miss in Europe:
1. the parks
2. the big trees
3. the walks in weather that won't make you perspire like mad
4. countryside scenes - i.e., little church and spire suddenly sticking out of a small community of homes you can see over the fields that a train whizzes you past.. I don't know what to say. It's very European. And quaint.
