Telephone conversation that goes....
08 November 2007
Ming: Is bro going back to Malaysia anytime soon?
Dad: Yes, in January
Ming: Staying back for CNY?
Dad: Not so sure yet but he will be back a week before CNY
Ming: Oooo... okies. Pa, I also want to be back for CNY?
Dad: If you want to come back pls book your ticket as soon as possible as you know that flight tickets are hard to get nowadays.
Ming: Okies...

When I heard about "please book your ticket as soon as possible", I was so Happy. Smilling all the way and laughing but controlling it at the same time cos I was still talking to my dad on the phone. Hahaha... I was so tempted to go home to see my bro's and my dog. Not so much on my parents cos they are coming here in 3 weeks time.

Ming: But pa, I have no holidays...
Dad: Then you better concentrate on your studies. But if you think you can manage, by all means come back to be with us

All of a sudden, my face changed from smilling to disappointment because of my bloody BVC course. Attendance is compulsory and I just can't take my ass off from NCL to Malaysia. Not even for a day, so what do you think of getting a week off? Haizz, sad situation. Plus, I have got mock assessment at the end of January. So I just have to cover my face with all my books instead of thinking so far ahead [wondering all to myself], wishing that I were home with them for the first CNY after 3 years.

Then...

Dad: It doesn't matter.. There are so many CNY ahead of you, why worry of not celebrating
Ming: Am not worry! I just wanted to go back to celebrate to get the feel of the atmosphere again... Been missing twice and those friends of mine which we have been celebrating together are back in Malaysia now...

Dad, trying very hard to comfort me and brushing off this topic...

Dad: Hmm, why not you go over to London and celebrate with your cousin?
Ming: Hmm, sounds good but I will think bout it first...
Dad: It is up to you, think over it carefully and let me know if you changed your mind of coming home..
Ming: ok

The topic just ended that way and we continue harping on other topics...

After the phone conversation, I was still contemplating of going home or not? But have made up my mind of not going home cos I can't afford to waste my time though my heart says just go home and take a week off to relax. SAD, SAd, Sad, sad..........
