Reflection 2024

 2024 is coming to a close.

Today, we visited Sakurajima Island in Kagoshima and I loved it. But what really pissed me off is when I have a girl who was really chatty, and I just want to zone out. I told them in advance that I'd like to go back early to do some reflections and maybe call my family. 

But she took her time to eat her dinner, buy alcohol (took her 30 min to buy), and popped by 7-11 to try some new drinks. When I was trying to find the parking lot for the hotel, I asked if it was left or right. She just told me oh we went past family mart, it should be there. And I am like I don't know where is family mart, so left or right?

Then we missed a turn, and I just started to become even more pissed because I'm so fking exhausted from driving the whole day, and I don't have the fking GPS, and I needed someone to tell me where.

Then the parking came, it was a struggle for me because of the tight wall. Then she said maybe dorothy can explain to me. ??? Thankfully Jase offered to step out of the car to help me see the parking line. So it took me another 5-10 min to park the car, and tbh I was so fking done, and I dropped the fking bottle of alcohol which caused like 5 bucks. It shattered in my recyclable bag and I knew I was going to blow a fuse. I told them to go first because I can't even see the car key in the dark, my window was winded down, and my lights were on. That's why I was getting even more pissed because I have zero energy to even call my family for a new year call. And I miss them.

I really can't travel with adel. I am extremely thankful that this is probably the last time I go on an overseas travel with her since she is moving to tokyo, and also because she can be so fking noisy. 

But I don't know if it's my PMS or my exhaustion now. Anyway, other than today, 2024 has been crazy and it's a roller coaster. I am still thankfuk for (even the noisy girl) the people that I've met on this program, and the silver linings in everything so far.

I pray that 2025 will be a better year for me.
