*Sigh*
January 27, 2008It’s been 19 days since I set foot here in Australia. Nineteen days of missing the people that I love. Despite of the places to see and things to do, I can’t seem to enjoy my stay to the fullest, at least not yet. I am not used to experiencing new things without someone I love beside me.
Take last frinday for instance. The AusAID liaison officer organized an excursion for all the awardees. We went dolphin watching at Port Stephens. And boy! Did we see a lot of dolphins! It was a dream come true for me as I’ve always wanted to see them upclose. And last friday, I finally fulfilled that dream.
Was I happy? Surely I was. Was I contended? No I wasn’t. It is one thing to see the realization of one of my life long dreams but it is another to be able to share it with someone you truly care about. And, sad to say, I had no one beside me to share my happiness with. Someone who knows what that excursion meant to me. Someone who could have understood my joy and excitement.
