beijing

for some strange and unfathomable reason.. i'm missing beijing... missing the place that somehow strangely grew on me and made me fall in love with it somewhat... without even realising it....

i miss the food, my korean takeaways, my yang rou chuans, my strawberries and strawberry tarts, my beijing kao ya (roast duck)...kang shi fu biscuits!!!

the familiar streets, the road to beida, to tsinghua, to my apartment

the buildings i see when i look out from the balcony

sculpting in time (which is no longer there), the massages, wu dao kou

the road to arthur's place, to BIFC

cookies' room. my room. the kitchen with that one spot where the chairs were left because it was so dirty and hard to clean we gave up on it....

the cold, the wind, the sandstorms i never realised were in existence... the snow in april

tour le jou (forgot how it's spelt heh), yishin, ya wang ....

it's like.... i've been so busy and entangled in so many things the past 2 years, and now when i have time to think about possibly travelling, i find myself wanting to go back to beijing... to visit my favourite haunts, to shop at my favourite places, to eat the food i miss... to veg out with cookies.... heh

i'll be back beijing heh
