*my sweet escape*: Missing Home

I haven't been well these past few days.. nothing major, mind you. It's just the daily smog inhalation that's been making my throat all itchy and scratchy -- making me end up with sleepless nights and neverending irritable cough.

It's moments like this that I yearn for my seaside hometown of KK (short for Kota Kinabalu, located in Borneo). I was just there for a week and already I'm missing the air. Probably that's why I haven't packed all of my stuff to bring over here yet. It's so that I have an excuse to go back there all the time.

I just talked to my mom and she wished that I'll take at least 50% of my stuff so there's not much unused clutter.. but I still insist on leaving it there. Either she's buying my excuse that I can't find any decent long distance movers or maybe she's just silently pleased that we're planning to go back there often.

Sure, I love it here in KL.. There's much more for me to do and I just enjoy living on my own with my family but there's no doubt that I miss waking up to feed the fish every morning or see my mom's hibiscus going in full bloom..
