Lyn’s Thoughts: “I’m going home. Back to the place where I belong and where your love has always been enough for me” – #13

After about three months, I am finally back home to see my parents and sister. I am excited to see them but at the same time, I’ve gotten so used to being isolated and alone that I am not sure how I will be able to handle having people talking to me daily.

I’ve only been back for two days and I managed to convince my entire family to watch the South Korean drama, Itaewon Class. Before, my dad would always complain about how my sister and I would watch shows that have subtitles. Yet when I started watching the first episode of Itaewon Class, my dad got intrigued. I think it is because the series focused on a revenge plot as opposed to the show being just purely romance. I’m glad I got my parents hooked on this series because we all get to spend quality time as a family and it keeps my parents from being too loud and annoying.

I also joined my sister in her workout. She does CrossFit but when COVID happened, her gym closed and so she started doing her work-outs at home. She allowed me to join her. I admit I was a bit nervous because I haven’t worked out since the summer of my freshman year of high school. As for my first ever workout, it wasn’t so bad. I was able to complete a few sets of push-ups, step-ups, and jump ropes. I’m proud of myself. This will be part of my routine while I am visiting my hometown for now.

It’s nice to be back in my hometown. It gives me time to rest and recharge but also have time to think about my plans.
