SUMMER IN SEOUL: Thoughts

Thoughts on - I could get used to living alone.

Fancy pictures and blabbers of Korea aside, I was lying on the bed this morning and thought "I could get used to living alone." 

To be honest, when I first reached, I had a fairly hard time trying to get used to being alone. In Singapore, I sometimes shop alone and go somewhere alone, but it's kinda different in a foreign country? There was no one to turn to when I lost my way, and no one to talk to most of time of the day. The only time I speak (excluding food ordering or buying things) was on Skype with my family members! And I try to talk as much as possible because if not, I feel like a mute. 

I turned on music on my laptop if I am not skyping. It makes me feel less......alone. Not lonely. Alone. There were days when I thought I probably ain't cut out to live alone. But then I realised this morning that I am used to it now. I no longer play music throughout the night, and don't mind not skyping everyday. 

Everyday tasks like washing clothes and cups are a norm now, but I still don't make my bed. Hahahaha. I really see no point in making my bed when I am going to mess it up again at night :p 

My mom also did a very evil thing today. I was skyping her in the morning and she suddenly said "your clothes just throw on the bed ah?" I was like "how you know!!" By right she couldn't see my bed at all cos I am blocking it. She replied, "I knew it." HAHAHAHA. Sigh, my mom knows me too well.

Korea is getting way too hot for my liking. 35deg cel everyday. Am chilling at a cafe now enjoying the rare aircon. School's starting in 2 days' time!! Nervous and excited. Also can't wait for my sister to arrive~
