Bye bye Taipei

The past few days in Taipei has allow me to slow down my pace and refect on the past year. After J left, my life stood still for quite some time, then I buried myself in work till today. I was afraid to be free and start thinking about our past. I worked 7 days a week and only sleep for less than 4 hours a day.

Alot of things happened during 2005, of course the biggest event is my relationship with J following by my promotion and lastly setting up my own business. Everything is a chained reaction, I got promoted because I broke off with J and set up my own business as I wanted to prove my capability to survive outside....


At times, I would walked the street at night observing the passerby, some of the people here are from other part of the country, they moved to Taipei in search of better jobs and better lives. Some end up working in masage parlour or nightcubs.... Is the grass always greener on the other side??


Today I stayed at home the whole afternoon. I started to clean up my bedroom and kitchen. There are stuff which had been lying around for quite sometime yet unnoticed. The only time I spent at home all these while is during sleeping, other than that, I would be working or hanging out with friends. What's the difference between a house and a home?? A lot of people would rather spent time out on the street or cafe than staying at home. It seems that we had took this shelter we call home and our parents for granted....Its seems more like a hotel more than a home. Suddenly I had the urge to stay at home and appreciate every litte thing around.
