17 days
Posted on: May 14, 2009
Though nothing special about this particular number (17), other than it’s too big, I still want to write something. I have to wait for another 17 days to end something memorable and to start something wonderful (I hope). The excitement of being there again outweights the enjoyment of the current days, causing the endless waiting. As they said, the last mile is the most difficult mile, and it’s very true. Indeed, this 17-day period seems like 71-day to me. Not only one day is long, every minute is crawling.
Rationally, logically and me-ly, I should be fully enjoying this last 17 days. But unfortunately, the enjoyment is just partly. Knowing that I’ll miss this place a lot, miss the beauty of nature, miss the peacefulness, miss the language, miss the people, miss my life here; I can’t help looking forward to June (or rather May 31).
I’ll be back soon, to join my first and second selves, making me complete.

I hope I won’t do anything wrong that will ruin my wish when it comes true.

Very soon… very soon…
The wait can “kill” but by the time it comes, you will be “lost” as the wish that never seemed to come suddenly becomes a reality. Just like the post-exam period 😛
