This morning A left for London. This is not the first time he goes on business trip but nonetheless the house feels so empty. At these times, I usually do my best to avoid any horror movies/books/tv ads or else I’d be sleeping with all the lights on.

Driving lesson was a nightmare today. Since I was supposed to learn speed control, we went through gear 1 to 4 on a longer route. Once I almost hit a taxi, once stalled the engine, once tried to restart the already-running engine since I thought it was stalled (we were using one of the new cars which are very quiet), once overshot the stop line, once accidentally went to gear 1 instead of gear 3 while running on 40km/h, and many times turned too late/too early at junctions. Pray I’ll do better tomorrow.

Although nothing is confirmed yet, part of me feels that we are going to move to Brussels. Perhaps it’s just an excuse for not doing anything useful or looking for a job. My friend was right when he said I shouldn’t have been idle for too long because it’d be hard to pick up again. But these past few months have been the best time in my life and I don’t regret it a bit. I just need to look out of the living room window on sunny/rainy/any days and count my blessings for not being in a cubicle. Indeed life has been good to me.
