Office day

hello dear, how are you? miss you.

sorry that I didn’t write here yesterday, I went in to the office and felt quite tired when it’s bedtime. I am still adjusting from jetlag that I haven’t been sleeping very well at night, and I think because of my period is coming soon too, I am just not feeling very good mentally.

On Sunday night, I woke up at 5ish am and don’t know why felt like crying. But after crying for awhile (I don’t even remember the reason), I was able to fall back asleep at 8am. I woke up again very soon and had to go to work.

The jetlag makes it even harder for me to get up. I was also nervous about going to the office, so I did struggle quite abit. But then I came across this Bible verse prompt on bed: “Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord rises upon you.” It felt so relevant for me at that moment as I struggled to get up and get through the day. I really felt God encouraging me by reminding me my place in a community.

My office dayturned out to be more pleasant than I thought. I brought some snacks and coffee for everyone, chatted with Patrick about all the places I visited in the UK this time. I also got some souvenirs for Edison and I think he quite liked them.

It was quite an easy day for me but I don’t know why when I got home, I started feeling a bit emotional and missing the UK when I went to bed. I don’t know if you understand how this feels. It’s not like I’ve been feeling terrible to be back here in HK. In fact, it’s been “good” to be back to enjoy all my comfort food and see people I care about again. But I feel like having a second home means my heart will always be torn between the two places. And when I left the UK after being there for a month, I left a big piece of my heart there too. But I know I felt the same too when I was there, thinking about things and people in HK. It’s like that feeling of home and comfort will never be complete no matter I am physically.

Hugs Andy. Miss you 😢
