Back to Backed.

A familiar stranger.
Yes peeps! I'm back after a 1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+9-5 days in Shanghai! The stay was great!
You can just go on to Facebook to see those pictures that my wonderful "new but close" friends had tagged me in. I know that its a little too anti-climax here for me to not talk about my Shanghai Immersion, but well, since I've always emphasized that a picture meant a thousands words, I guess those pictures on Facebook will do fine. I'm too lazy to journal about it, nor even upload the pictures from own camera ever since writing journal was compulsory as part of my assessment there. But but but! If you still want to hear from me what exactly happened over the LONG period of time at somewhere so FAR away, you can always feel free to make an appointment with me. I'll tell you everything day by day word for word regarding what happened there, face to face. Of course, I only entertain appointment venues at places with ambiance not lousier than Coffee Bean or Starbucks (Since I got myself a Starbucks Tumbler not long ago)
Talking about stuff I bought, I also just got myself a new Ipod Touch 3g! Not from China of course, I proclaim it a "Made in China" Singaporean. AHAHAHs. I'm laughing at my own not funny joke. Perhaps I'm very affected by the "School Reopen Blues". So! Do recommend a noobie like me useful or fun apps to waste my time away!
Now, for the more complicated side of this post.
I think I've yet again lost some sense of direction as this new semester begins. I hate to follow the crowd, I like to find my own way. Yet, sometimes while venturing too far, its saddening to see others reaching their destination much faster than you. I've learnt to appreciate the extra sceneries that I get to enjoy more than those people who arrived at their destination faster. But sometimes, I still wonder whether its all worth it. It always felt like something is missing, missing from my life that is preventing me from seeking out further, unmanned areas. Somehow, I knew that its been lost for a very long time, yet, its significance is growing day by day as other motivations diminish. Yet, I'm ever so afraid to grab hold of it, or to even identify it for its just like, a familiar stranger to me.
Not matter what, you, Familiar Stranger, I know one day, just one day, not only will I identify you, but will also stand by you to seek out greater purposes. The problem is, who are you? where are you? when will you expose your true identity?
PS: It felt like I'm writing the prologue for an upcoming trailer.
