The beginning of the end

I decided to write in multiply again. Something on the days of the remaining three months of my stay in UK. I knew that i have limited time left in UK, and all i can do is to explore as much as i can and write it down when it still freshly lingering in my mind. i know i will never come back again, as a tourist maybe, but it will never be the same. so here you go, this is the beginning of a series of the end.

Before i started my series of blogs on the scotland trip, just wanna spill out some of my current feelings and the whole after-trip dilemma. i always have a deja vu kind of feeling after an intense trip, i may looked a bit spaced out for a while due to the saturation of my senses, well, its just me i guess.

i'm gonna write the blogs slowly, no rush cuz i hope to recollect every little piece of memories i had, every scent that i absorbed and every sight that i saw during that 4 days scotland trip.

Back to my after-trip dilemma, i wasnt aware that the whole UK is turning into the season of fall now, the fact that i'm living in north west means that for the most part-i dont get that season that early, compared to Scotland or south of United Kingdom. The night i reached in Liverpool after the 4 days trip, the sky was all misty and the weather hard turn numbingly cold. yeah i do miss the autumn red leaves and the chill in the air dearly. I guess the weather too, had some ripple effect on the weird mood i have now. i'm not sure whether this emotion is good or bad, but it had sure influenced me in a certain ways. i will reveal them slowly in subsequent blogs.

Some feelings last for eternity. The reason eternity is so hard to grasp is because we try to understand it in terms of time. However, when the feelings remain vivid and endures a life time in your memory box, it is eternity.

Hence, this after-trip-feeling-blog is the introduction of my scottish experience. It is the beginning of my travel diary, ironically only written after the end of the trip.

The feelings of the after-trip can all be summarized in just one picture.

Sometimes memories are just all that we have to hold onto.

I feel you.

and you know what, memories last longer than the reality.
