solo

relieved to be at home!

after the course finished on Friday, i went straight back to my current address@my home for now. i dont have the zest to explore the place-what with fasting and hari raya coming soon..certainly not the time to go about foya foya..so i went on a solo journey back..a few minutes before boarding, someone called me.making sure that i was well on my way home..that was a very touching thing to do, which..i forgot to say thank you...:o)Thank You.

i reached sibu in about 9.15pm, i went straight to my booked room at hotel Medan.i went out to check the place, but not much. except for a reflexology shop and one Muslim restaurant..i wondered what kind of reflexology shop opened until the wee hour in the morning..none of my business anyway..i ended up eating at the restaurant, which was fully occupied by guys and couples. i ignored the fact, sit and eat and went out again afterward.. really, not much of a sight during the night.So i went back to my room, and watched a movie with Leon Lai and Jordan Chan in it(my faves)-The Skyline Cruisers-and slept about 12.26am.a very interesting thought, i actually go about checking the bolt and double check the door before i sleep..just because suddenly i felt that i need to be extra careful, one reason was to prove that i can take care of myself, and the other one was because i dont want anybody to worry about me:o)(coming back to the phone call)

Woke up at 4.30am, had my sahur and planned whether to go home by bus or by boat. i decided to go by bus, simply because i wanted to go about checking the place again..Around 9am, i went to the bank i saw last night, bought an 11.30 bus ticket, and the rest of my times were spent at the supermarket nearby..not much to do..
I met an Ah Mu(auntie) who asked for Rm3 to buy food for her sick child.I just didnt know how to run because she was so insistent-even hold my arm..Luckily a couple came up and started saying that Ah Mu was lying, and this was not the first incident to ever happened..She went straight away.. Thanks to the couple..This was the first time for me..and when i continued walking, i can feel that my feets were shaking, and that i was actually very frightened..who know what might happen if it wasnt for the couple? another thought cross my mind-while waiting for the bus, i met Ah Mu again..She went here and there and asked other people for money..Was it something about my countenance that made people think that i am an easy prey???Must be..because i noticed that she didnt ask from this particular girl who sat in front of me..simply because she looked uninterested..Hmmm

i was still thinking about why i didnt stay back in KL the whole journey..and i realised in the end why i didnt stay..to avoid anything that gets people talking-just as my bestmate's wish.

all i wanted was for him to understand that im a no nonsense person..Therefore, i'll do anything that is reflective of my words-staying away.
