Sick

I've been sick for over a week now. First it was just a bad sore throat but now it's turned into a cold/flu and it's starting to really bug me because of how long it's taking me to get better, not to mention the fact that I haven't been able to sleep much tonight (which explains why I've been awake since 5:30) because of a half blocked/half runny nose and countless tissues AND I also missed out on having a japanese buffet. A JAP BUFFET. Damn you germs. Hopefully though, I'll get better really quickly once I get back to Perth and talking about it, my flight is in 7 hrs and I can't wait to get back. (I swear its because of the fact that I'm in Hong Kong that I've been sick for so long)

Anyways...enough blabbing for now and let's just hope I get well quickly.

Discovery

I was walking around the other day in a toy section trying to look for a bumblebee model as a present and then happened to stumble across a section devoted to Gundam models. I think it woke up the kid inside me because now I've decided to, the next time I come back to Hong Kong, save up some money specifically to buy Gundam models. My mum called me crazy but I think it's cool. Oh the joys of being a kid.

Why is it...

Why is it that we never seem to appreciate what we have in front of us but instead are always dissatifised and want what we can't or don't have. We always take so much for granted and we never realise just how important these things are to us until they escape and run away. Maybe sometimes we need to take some time and stop focusing on what we want but appreciate and be happy about with what we already have. It's something I think I could do more often.

P.S. I watched 500 days of summer last night on the plane and I have to say that I really really enjoyed watching it. And yes, it was a romance movie. Oh, and Zooey Deschanel really is a rather pretty girl.

Holiday

It's sorta getting late now but I'm feeling like a blog post before I go to bed.

I am leaving for Hong Kong in just under a day now (leaving midnight today). To be honest, half of me doesn't really want to go back which is strange right? I mean, any other person would jump at the chance to go to Hong Kong but for some reason I am just not feeling that eagerness to go. I think I am feeling this lingering attachment to Perth but I'm not sure. I haven't been able to be very definite with anything I have been feeling lately really so this isn't a suprise.

On the other hand, I think a break will do me some good. With everything that has been happening, a break will just give me some time away from everything and everyone. It might also just give me the space I need to (hopefully) sort myself out. Apart from that, Hong Kong is known as a shopper's paradise and I can't wait to splurge my hard earned money - there are so many things that I want to get. Oh and don't forget the heat too. It's winter up there so I will be able to escape the dreaded summer heat. Thank god for that.

And just one last thought (which is sorta starting to become the norm with all my posts), just how many coincidences can you think of as being merely coincidences until it starts to become something else?
