Starting all over again

Checking out from Le Meriden Brussels in another hour and gonna hop on the train with all my heavy luggage to Antwerp.

Yes I'll be spending the rest of the week in Antwerp.

It feels like starting all over again. Trying to adapt to be alone somewhere else again. Survived through the 2nd weekends. I've 20 more days and 2 more weekends before home comes near. That's why Wen Min's arrival next friday is gonna be such a bonus! At least there's someone to spend 2 weekends with me! Gonna head down to Amsterdam and Paris! Woohooo!!! =)

2nd wkend in Brussels

Time is starting to pass faster now.

Just last wk I was wondering how to pass each day till 19June. But now I'm enjoying. The relax and laid back life ass compared to the bustling and stressful Singapore. It's been stress-free days since I was here. Strangely I have this feeling that on the day I'm leaving, I might not wanna leave.

But I still miss home. Wanna be back for my laksa, fishball noodle and chilli! Miss those food. I still do think that they're fattening but I've been away for 1mth. So I'll put that aside and enjoy food from where I call home.

It's gonna be my last night in Brussels, heading down to Antwerp tmr and I'll be there for the rest of the weeks till I head home. The mention of the word "home" just gets me so excited!! But there's something else making me even more exciting and that is Wen min's arrival to Belgium next friday!!! Finally someone to accompany me, we have plans to visit Paris and Amsterdam! But she had a little problem with her confirmation email, just hope everything is alright.

It's almost 12pm now... Heading out for a walk soon and do some shopping. And come back early to pack my luggage. I had a hard time squeezing things into my luggage when I came. I bought somethings as well. Just hope I'll be able to close it!

Ciaoz peeps! Have a great evening!

Day 5 in Brussels

It's the most sunny day since I came here.

Hop on the city tour bus to a few places. I'm kind of burn having standing under the sun waiting for the bus for almost 30mins.

Visited the Atomium and a few other places. Hoping that the bf were here to actually enjoy all these beautiful scenery with me. Frankly speaking I have not taken that much photos of a place away from Singapore. Each vacation destination is just for one purpose. Shopping!!

Walking around with my camera and exploring Brussels, I came to realised how much I've neglected the beautiful sights that I might have missed on my travels. But I just can't help it.

The thing about here is that the shops closes early everyday. It's like maybe 7+ or 8pm. I would be back in my hotel room at 9+ and probably sleeping by 10+. But it's 4am in SG so my body clock is still trying to adjust to it.

I was out at this park just now and so many of them will lying on the grass. Chatting away and enjoying the sun. And I thought to myself. "hey when I'm back in SG, I would love to do that with the bf as well." Spending quality time together. And how we just love each other company.

During my walk here, I barely see any chinese or yellow skin people here. So each time when I see some chinese here, I feel warmth. You know that kind of feeling. All alone in a foreign land.

I still have 25 days more. Hope the clock ticks faster....

Dinner time soon... Ciaoz!

Missing Home

So here I am, all alone in Brussels. It's the fourth day and I'm still trying to get used to it.

The jet lag is just making me crazy and the air-con in my room is spoiled. I have been sleeping and waking up in perspiration. Hate that.

Wanna get some good sleep tonight. They'll be changing a room for me later and upgrade to a deluxe room. Much bigger room. Hope I get a better sleep tonight.

4 days in Brussels and I've lost 1 kg. Appetite has not been too good. It was only yesterday that I actually went out to look for dinner. Room service was just 1 button away for the past 2 nights.

I used to hope that I could get out of Singapore and maybe try a new life outside. Always wanting to try it out. I love traveling but traveling alone and with the bf is so different. I remember heading to HK alone last year, it wasn't as fun as compared to the trip that we both went together last week.

I guess that's what they meant by home is where the heart truly is. With him around, everything seem so colourful and bright. Reminds me of the time when I came down too harsh on him and the quarrels that I started. But again... it's only when you really love someone that you'll miss him so much. Every beautiful sight or happy things, you just wanna share with him. Was out walking alone y'day, how I wished he was around to see how different the culture is from Singapore. Things will be different if we're exploring this place together. All the fun and laughter, I can imagine.

Well it's another long day which I don't know how to get by. Probably I'll stay in the hotel room. But I think I'll probably go out for a walk and take some photos. Will join the city tour tml.

Till then. Take care folks!

26 more days to be back home!

First day in Belgium

Hello from Belgium folks!!!

Alright I don't really sound as excited as I am actually.

It's my first day here in Belgium and I'm feeling kind of crappy. I feel so dumped right here. That's not what I was expecting. I thought someone here will bring me around. But apparently, I'll more or less have to be on my own. Don't really like that idea, since I'm not familiar with here. And plus I'll need to be here for 1 week. What's this. Seriously. Guess I'll call back tml and see what can be arranged. I don't really know why I'm here. Their system is much more advanced than us. I spoke to the lady in-charge of the testing project. Guess what. She didn't want me to come all over from SG. She has a point there. We're both thinking the SAME! But whatever...

Am just having my dinner right now. Seasonal vegetable cream soup. Not really in the mood to eat sth solid. Just wanna keep the stomach full and head to bed early. Time now in Belgium is abt 8.45pm but it still looks like 4-5pm.

On a happy note, since it's a business trip. Everything is paid for. So might as well use the internet and the room service here. Since there's no one to bring me around there's nth much I can do either.

And first time on SQ business class. Awesome experience. Air stewardess taking your orders one by one and addressing you by "Miss Lee". Seats are comfy. Better headphones and much more peaceful. No wonder the price for business class.

First day and I'm already missing SG 'cause of the situation I'm in. Wish there were other SG colleague with me. Now I'm all alone. Miss the bf alot. If only air tics to Europe were not that ex.

Will update more... till then folks!

Ciaoz!
