If you're standing with your suitcaseBut you can't step on the planeEverything's the way that you left itI still haven't slept yet
And if you're covering your face nowBut you just can't hide the painStill setting two plates on the counterBut eating without ya
If the truth is you're a liarThen just say that you're okayI'm sleepin' on your side of the bedGoin' out of my head now
And if you're out there tryna move onBut something pulls you back againI'm sitting here tryna persuade youLike you're in the same room
And I wish you could give me the cold shoulderAnd I wish you could still give me a hard timeAnd I wish I could still wish it was overBut even if wishing is a waste of timeEven if I never crossed your mind
I'll leave the door on the latchIf you ever come back, if you ever come backThere'll be a light in the hall and the key under the matIf you ever come back
There'll be a smile on my face and the kettle onAnd it will be just like you were never goneThere'll be a light in the hall and the key under the matIf you ever come back, if you ever come back nowOh, if you ever come back, if you ever come back
Now they say I'm wasting my time'Cause you're never comin' homeBut they used to say the world was flatBut how wrong was that now?
And by leavin' my door openI'm riskin' everything I ownSomething I can lose in the break-inThat you haven't taken
And I wish you could give me the cold shoulderAnd I wish you can still give me a hard timeAnd I wish I could still wish it was overBut even if wishing is a waste of timeEven if I never crossed your mind
I'll leave the door on the latchIf you ever come back, if you ever come backThere'll be a light in the hall and the key under the matIf you ever come back
There'll be a smile on my face and the kettle onAnd it will be just like you were never goneThere'll be a light in the hall and the key under the matIf you ever come back, if you ever come back nowIf you ever come back, if you ever come back
If it's the fighting you remember or the little things you missI know you're out there somewhere so just remember thisIf it's the fighting you remember or the little things you missOh, just remember this, oh, just remember this
I'll leave the door on the latchIf you ever come back, if you ever come backThere'll be a light in the hall and the key under the matIf you ever come back
There'll be a smile on my face and the kettle onAnd it will be just like you were never goneThere'll be a light in the hall and the key under the matIf you ever come back, if you ever come back nowIf you ever come back, if you ever come back
And it will be just like you were never goneAnd it will be just like you were never goneAnd it will be just like you were never goneIf you ever come back, if you ever come back now

Australia
Dear Blog....
Tomorrow is the last day i will spend in this beautiful country.I've realise how beautiful the art of travelling is and what you gain from this wonderful experience.I saw a quote yesterday saying 'Travelling,it's the only inexpensive thing that makes you rich in experience'.I've learned so much this trip and i am so thankful the day God decide to make me realise how important this journey will be to me.I still don't know what make me pick up my bags,spend 1400 bucks of my OWN money and go on the trip other then it was the will of Him...but then again...
There are things that simply can't be described but one of the main highlights was definitely seeing my friends! Catching up with them was really a pleasure.And i'm really sorry for two of them.They are the best of the lot here in this country,and i'm so sorry for being such a pain in the ass.Even when i'm living with one of them where i got constant threats to sleep at the balcony.I can't thank them enough (though i bought them presents after). Who cooks breakfast almost everyday for 2 weeks,talks to you in the bedroom every night until you're so tired that you escape the room and sleep on the couch,crack their heads out to find stuff for you to do during your stay,do crazy stuffs for your birthday, let you thrash their place,eat their food,argue till the point of tears,and run out to get kebabs in the dead winter when you're feeling hungry at 12 AM in the morning! These are friends that are hard to come by and i feel so lucky and blessed just by typing this.Well to be honest,i realised it long ago,it's just that i fail to express it =p But they are really worth So much and i feel so bad for not letting them know it.Oh well,i just have to hope they know it themselves. =)
Another important lesson i learned this trip was knowing when to move on.It's definitely easier said than done but thankfully i had time on my side.And the miraculous thing about it is that it heals everything.But it was most heartbreaking when it happened then.But to get better things in life,we have to let some go.But i always doubt it by saying what if what we held earlier was the best? Oh well,i guess the only way is to be optimistic and hope for the latter =)
Friends are also another thing that i grew richer with coming here.I've met new people here and i am also so grateful for that.Some are those introduced from friends,but there was this special case whereby i met this girl in a CLUB in Melbourne! We had light talk in the club and when i heard she was from the University of Sydney and was only in Melbourne for holiday,we decided to catch up back in Sydney! And so we met up yesterday to supposedly get a cup of coffee.We met around 3.30 at Newtown and she took me on a tour of her university (on my demand).It was absolutely BEAUTIFUL.I have been to Monash, RMIT ,Macquarie and Melbourne University this trip.And when i say the University of Sydney has the Most Beautiful campus in Australia,believe me,it REALLY IS! It's like something out of a Harry Potter book,it looked like Hogwarts at certain places! So after the tour, we went to grab coffee,she recommended a trendy coffee shop that was in bookshop,we were literally surrounded by books,really awesome! Lost the opportunity to take pictures though.So we began talking so much and so long that the coffee shop had to hint they were closing,and we began walking aimlessly on King Street.We continue talking all the way back to her University and walked around it at night.Only after forgoing two buses,did i finally take the bus to the railway station and back home.It was only then did i realise it was almost 9 and that we have been talking for almost 5 hours non-stop.And when my stomach growled did i realise i actually had to add 'eating dinner' into the forgo list also.
Looking back,i'm actually quite amazed as i only knew this girl for thirty minutes,or an hour at most before we had coffee.And yet we talked like i knew her for ages.She's also a year older than me given the fact.But the event goes to show the wondrous things you never thought could happen,in fact will.But like all good,awesome,fantastic things,there always comes an abrupt end.
Just said goodbye to my little cousin Henry,6 and Jennifer,8.The last time i saw them was around 4 years ago.The next time i'll be seeing them will be at least another 4 more years.And gosh they grow so fast! And they also remind me i'm getting old too.I'll miss them like how i'll miss my friends here in Sydney,Melbourne and the experiences I've gained here.But the thing i miss for now is home.

I'm Back?
A year and a half.Oh lord,i actually thought it was longer than this..I don't know why but i dread coming back here and risk going back to my blogging days,where i would upload pictures and rant about stuff if ever i was free and an internet connection was present.This is where i would be a perfectionist,reading and making adjustments all the way till the perfect post was uploaded,not that i ever was one.But the thought of doing it just makes me L.A.Z.Y.But as much i didn't like coming back to this place,this is the place where i actually find a little peace in my hectic life.A place where i can find solace.
Bullocks to that,i shall finally blog about what i'll be doing in less than 2 months or so.To whoever reading this (a handful i suppose),i'm going to a faraway land to study.Where men And women wear quilts and tartans.Where a certain type of beef is called the Angus and the instrument of play is bagpipes.Yes ladies and gentleman,i'm going to Scotland! People of mine choose to further their education at countries like Australia,New Zealand and the UK itself but noooo,not me,i''m foolish enough to go to Scotland.Somewhere so far,people are afraid of losing contact with me.Why Scotland? Is the most asked question,to be honest,I don't know why...I'm in Australia this very moment on vacation,where i supposedly should be studying here.Aside from being a bit too expensive,It's an absolute BEAUTIFUL country,especially Melbourne.So why didn't i choose here? One word.COST.And as much as i really want to be with my friends here,i am actually quite relieve i didn't study here cos it'll cost so bloody much.
Whatever it is,going to Scotland will be the biggest gamble of my life.And i know i'll look back at this in the future where this decision ,which I alone made, made me.And hopefully,i won't be filled with regret...
