i got to the airport early the day of my flight and had a few hours to kill so i headed to the bar and had about a half a dozen drinks before boarding. thank god the flight wasn't sold out so the middle seat was unoccupied. international flights mean all you can drink beer so i threw a few back. i was able to take an hour nap before i was woken up by the three babies surrounding my seat. it was not pleasant. i couldn't fall back asleep so i watched 5 shitty movies in a row.
my uncle picked me up from the taipei international airport and i was working with 2 hours sleep in the previous 24 hours. i stayed over his house for the night, before heading down south to kahosiung where my parents live. i would have to say that the trip out to the homeland so far has been a bit of a drag, besides the fact that i've been seeing this new girl back home and at least i was able to think about her every now and again and smile.
i've been dating quite frequently this year and definitely have learned more and more about what i don't want in a relationship. i suppose that a lot of the relationships that i'm involved in don't ever work out because of my own ineptitude in keeping a woman, or at least keeping a woman happy.
i suppose a lot of the times i cave in to my own insecurities and vices, which leads down a perilous path that i can never stray from. but i like this new girl quite a bit. she makes me happy. she makes me feel like things will be alright. when i am away from her i see her face and things are never as bad as they seem.
but i understand that we are just at the beginning of things. things are light and fun, new and exciting. we have not yet seen the underbelly of the beast and i am hoping that he does not rear his ugly head.
