like either one of these movies?
Kidding. I don't have road trips, silly. Who do you think I am? On a side note: I'm still making my way through "Dude, Where's My Car." Slowly and surely, I'll finish the movie one of these days.
Getting back on track. It means that I'm going to be traveling on an airplane for horrendously long periods of time with strangers and in uncomfortable seats with bad, stale food. Thank God international flights, and I think domestic ones are included as well now, doesn’t allow smoking anymore. It was killer back then when you had to inhale smoke in recycled, germ-infested airplane air. No, germs are just not enough. Add smoke in there, and how do they expect you to breathe?
Ok. Back again to the trip. I should be preparing for it. I'll be gone two months. This trip is really important because I'm also moving away. This is really not a good time to be out of the country because I have college stuff happening, but I'm really looking forward to this.
It'll be good for me. To get my mind off of moving away, and to ease my mind over college stuff. I'll have two months in a far way place living without any cares. A great way to relax and clear my mind.
This trip is also bittersweet. I haven’t been to see my family in over two years. Well, it was two years ago that I got the chance to see them. Last year's trip was thwarted by SARS. Stupid, but deadly SARS. Anyways, it's bittersweet because soon I'll no longer get to go back to the home I've been craving for. It won't be the same building, neighborhood, or people I got to see often.
Everything's changing. This is the one place I've always depended on. I always had to look forward to no matter what else was happening. It seemed so solid. I never ever saw this coming. It’ll be devastating when it finally comes to pass, but I'm hoping to enjoy it more this year. That's why this trip means so much. I might never get to see it again.
Because they are planning on expand the roads, which means that my family’s house will become a part of the roadway, and therefore no longer exist.
The whole neighborhood will be irrevocably changed by the new construction. Thanks to the government.
I loved that place. It's where I grew up.
