Farewell Brisbane

Oh yes, it's time to leave and I can't bear it. I've made my home in Brisbane for the past two years. I've found dear friends, family and myself. I've changed and grown so much. I love my life here but now I have to start over and make a whole new home. It will take much getting used to. I think, no, I will fall into depression when I get back. For now, the feeling has yet to hit me but it will slap me in the face once I land in Changi Airport. I think it's been hard on my family, hearing me tell them that I don't want to return. I never thought I would become like so many of my generation who experience Australia and want to stay there for good. I must admit, I have fallen in love with Brisbane. Then again, it could also be because I found my real self down here. I grew up and matured down here. Of course, I'll bring all the memories back, though I am afraid that once I leave, I will go back to being the old me, adapting to the Singapore lifestyle. I don't want to change and yet, I change so easily. How scary this is! Lets' all wait and see. But for now, leave me alone...

I'll feel better on my own.
