Homesick
Zejun said it's not normal not to feel homesick when you are away so far away for so long. I guess my homesick episode has arrived.
I was at Bamenda, a cool city in the northeast province. It was at night, we were in a taxi, it was raining.
And all of a sudden.
I miss home.
I miss my friends.
I miss the familiarity.
I miss not needing to stuggle and fight everyday.
I was sick again last Thursday. Fever coupled with chills, flu mixed with cough, complemented with headache, muscle and joint ache. I was so sick to the point I had to go hospital. But the doctor just prescribed me with medicine, so I guess it's nothing too serious. But that made me lie dead on the bed for 2 days 2 nights, and gave me a weak body and possibly weak soul.
The scenery around me is really stunning. Beautiful mountaineous greenery scattered with small farming houses and capped with fluffy clouds. But all I could feel is pain and homesickness.
I am once again, painfully counting down to the number of days to go home. I guess if my boss offers me the opportunity to terminate my internship and let me go home now, I will take it up without a doubt.
