My days are winding down and my feelings are on a rollercoaster. I have moments when I feel SO ready to leave and others when I get teary eyed thinking about all the great places, friends, and furry friends I'm leaving behind.
I have had the wonderful opportunity to spend some quality time with my kittens the last 3 weeks. I have taken a zillion pictures of them. I'm trying to savour all the last moments and last snuggles with them.
Besides my cats, I started making a list of the things I will miss most:
- My scooter, and long scooter rides with Jonathan
- Long chats over coffee with Toby
- My super cheap and convenient gym
- Thursday night dates with an old friend
- Bubble tea and grapefruit green tea
- Xiao Long Tang Bao...see this post
- Laughing until it hurts with Luis
- Night markets and their craziness
- Shopping in Shida and Zhongxiao Dunhua
- Speaking Chinese, all day, every day
- Having those moments when I convey my ideas in Chinese and feel amazed that I can even do that
- Asian veggies
- Knowing the streets like the back of my hand
- Getting my nails done for $3
- 711's on every street corner - and being able to pay all my bills at 711.
- Getting my hair blow dried for $6
- Cheap iphone cases, cheap eyelashes, cheap food, cheap everything
- The beach, the mountains, the beautiful scenery
I'm sure I'll think of more things later. And maybe the next list will be: Things I will NOT miss. That list might be too long thought. And probably a bit inappropriate. Lol.
