Something learned:
There is no place like home. On a day where I was missing the festiveness of the Lunar New Year as celebrated in Singapore, I also learned that when given the chance to see any place in the world, the place that draws people most is to take a look at the house where they grew up in.
Until you've lived away from home, in a place far away and oh so different, it's hard to truly understand what homesickness is like. And learning to survive that I think, makes a person understand much more clearly what matters to their heart the most.
Today I was thankful for:
1. The Google Food team making a huge effort to mark Chinese New Year
2. Connecting a few more cousins on Facebook
3. A fun dinner with the family at Souplantation
4. Emptied out the todo list again
5. Getting some help from my aunt with fleshing out the family tree
Looking forward to:
Seeing a Korean first birthday celebration for the first time tomorrow.
