as far as you've come can't be undone
(this should be titled making a mountain out of a molehill, or maybe first world problems. ><)
I'm a bit screwed. it's never been like this before-- I fear I've spent too long overseas, this time. I compare singapore in terms of london now. maybe I'm just readjusting to it again? being back here used to feel surreal for the first few days, because it was like going back to something unchanged after a long while. now it feels familiar but I feel different. or something is different.
(I don't think I've ever felt such a strong sense of pride in my country as when I breezed through immigration in five seconds. I think I actually crowed softly in glee when the gates slid open to admit me, my thumbprint and my passport.)
then again, the grass really is greener on the other side of the fence. that much is mostly true for me, when it comes to london & singapore.
