Perhaps, this would be the last entry I'll ever post from my beloved old home. Come and think about it, it has been almost 16 years living under this dependable roof of yours, under strong winds, heavy rains, merciless rays form the sun. Never did I realize that this will be the day, where I am sitting in the empty living room of yours blogging my last entry.
The space I am sitting now used to have a table, in front of me used to be a TV, to my left supposed to have a lazy arm chair, behind me a long couch.. Sigh.. Now, it is all but an empty room, lifeless and with echo. Everyone in my family seemed eager towards the new home but I know that deep inside them, they have the heavy feeling to wave goodbye to the current one.
So many things happened here throughout the years. My friends whom I've grown up with, played games with, cycled with, shared lame jokes with are slowly moving away, and today I am another one who is doing the same. My childhood I would say, is not really an interesting one, but at least, looking back now, there are regrets, and it was this home which I've grown up through all these years that I've built my life and characters with.
I hope that the next owner of this house will enjoy life as much as I've gone through, if not better. I hope that they will take good care of the walls, the beams, the doors, the lawn, the trees.. I hope they love the house as much as I do.
7th January 2008 shall be remembered as the day I move out of you.. and I am missing you already.
