Thats the exact time when i first set my feet on a middle east deserted place called Doha. i knew nothing about this city except the fact that it is transiting me back to my home, Malaysia.
yes, i am coming back home. after one and a half year of wandering in the foreign lands, finally i am coming back home.
As i sat on the comfy seat on the airbus, suddenly i just have that de ja vu kind of feeling. Everything just felt so familiar, the anticipation, the eagerness of getting to the destination, its almost felt like i was in that same seat of MAS airbus when i first fly to UK. How fast the time passes, and yet how many things that happens in just 365+1/2(365) days. if i am closing my eyes now, i can still hear the sounds of the pipe organ of the graduation ceremony a few months ago, i can still smell the rich aroma of the pine trees in the summer, i can still felt the chill when the first snow flakes kissing my nose..... This is life, pieces of my life that makes the person i am now.
Am i the same little girl before i fly alone to the other side of the globe? external appearance maybe, but inside, there is something that is changing. something that made me not the same person as i used to be. The perception towards life, the feelings i have towards some people whom i thought initially were just some pass-byers in my life journey, the picture of my dreams which was so vague a year ago.... and that something was even blossoming in my heart now, at this moment, as i typing it down into words.
a part of me mourned that this part of life in UK is reaching the end now. but another part of me rejoicing cuz i had gained so much and i am prepared to start a new chapter in my life now, and this time the difference is i have my love ones standing right beside me as i continue to walk down this road.
'you will never walk alone'. thats what Liverpool whispered softly in my ears as i am taking the first step walking out of the end.
