Hey, that was it.
Its 1:10AM now so yesterday was my last day in Tawau. Best words to describe it would be 'monotonously meaningful'. Today was a day just spent with family time. Trying to make things seems just as normal as possible. I guess the time when it hit me was when I was packing and when my brother roy told Faith that there uncle colin wont be around anymore.
At that point I just cried and cried thinking of me packing and the place I will unpack, I locked myself in my room and played my boyz to men playlist for three hours straight. Im kidding.
I was just sad and the only person there was not even there. I spoke briefly to my cousin Karissa on MSN who is staying with Hosea (my future house mate, man!) and she gave me some words i guess. So I spent my day with family, dad mostly. We had a feast! A feast I tell you! He just fed and fed me the whole day and a barbecue to end the days feast. A feast!
He looked the most concerned but my mom is more, she just doesnt show it. My dad LOOKED concerned, she keeps it all in.
My day was just different.
I left my phone at my uncle's place so I was cut off from friends.
It was really just focusing on my journey ahead and spending as much time with my family. Ohh I'm going to miss my niece so so much. At least I got her used to saying uncle before i leave.
So I got my luggage packed. It looks really (turns to look at it)neat and poised from the outside tell ya that. Not the inside though. I really felt that I was trying to fit in a 200pound man into my luggage.
Other than that, things are settled now. My dad and I were in my room just now talking, (no, not the man to man talk, he was playing computer games) he taught me the ATM tricks and taught me how to be careful when using the ATM machines.
Oh wait, I did get a sorta kinda scrap book from the youth. I really appreciate it, ahh. Inside there was a love gift from uncle eddie's family. God's provision has already begun.
I did my bible study before I posted and I read these verses which actually prompted me to post a...uh post..
Here's what I really liked in Ephesians 5 (Contemporary English Version).
1Do as God does. After all, you are his dear children. 2Let love be your guide. Christ loved us and offered his life for us as a sacrifice that pleases God.
AMEN to that!
I really liked let love be your guide. God Is love! So I should be guided by His love. Simple as that.
Time to end this post, I need sleep! I have to face a lot of things tomorrow, leaving tawau would be the major one.
Goodnight Tawau.
