this is going to be the last time i'm posting an entry from my office on the 21st floor. i can still remember my first day being greeted by the magnificent view from the window where i sit. the past 6 months have been wonderful albeit short. passing grins from colleagues and hostility from some oddballs.
i've grown accustomed to the loud chattering going on in heavy-accented mandarin that i cannot understand 50% of the time, the gossips with the gals, and the privilege of coming in late and knocking off early everyday.
joa and i have an almost perfect life here in china and we'd certainly continue had we more options. we leave on wednesday. in a way, i'm glad i'm heading home and bringing all that i have built here in china. i miss singapore food, the clean air, and the largely non-smoking areas. i miss my friends and little nephews and can't wait to head back and give them all a big tight hug.
after this, i will start to pack up. already, someone's eyeing on my desk space.
