So, after spending ten days in Beijing, I am extremely excited to be back! Words cannot describe how much I've been looking forward to return to Dubai!
List of words that I've come up with while waiting for my flight at the airport:
Exhilaration, Excited, Relish, Delight, Joy, Rapture, Rejoice, Yahoo!, Yippee!
How about 'pleasure' and 'happy'? Oh no! Those descriptions are just too mild to describe my feelings right now.
Yes! Yes! Yes! I am finally going back to Dubai!!!
Wow! Are you so relieved that you're going back to Dubai? No more cool weather, no more bright sunny flowers, no more lush greenery... Are you really fine with that?
Yes! I am! I am so glad and delighted that I am finally going back! Back to the hot, sunny Dubai where I can feel the warmth from the sun and people. Back to the clean and dry streets where I won't be stepping on human oral excretion. Back to clean public washrooms where tissues, towels, soap and water are ever available. Back to a society where people speak civilly to each other and do not bark in constant annoyance. Back to a place where I can enjoy a hot cup of tea, with nobody staring at me; a place where I can jog, run and walk without fear of knocking into anybody; a country where I can surf on the web without encountering the warning, 'This site is restricted' for ninety percent of the links that I clicked (even though the information is purely technical and neutral); an environment where nostrils stinging cigarette smoke are banned indoors, replaced by fruit flavoured shisha outdoors; back to my nice, soft bed, lying on my fluffy pillows, wrapped between thick, warm layers of quilts and hole-less blankets. Back to my home-sweet-home!
Gosh! I am just so relieved to be back and relishing every minute of it! I am so excited that I want to run from Abu Dhabi to Dubai. I want to swim in the clear, blue, sparkling, shimmering waters of the Jumeira; place the soles of my feet on the soft, comforting sands of the Kite Beach; cook a dish of nice, simple, oil-less meal; stretch on a couch, surf websites, download papers and watch movies without restrictions.
Wow! I am finally back to where I belong! My niche, my home, my comfort zone.
I am back! And I am going to cherish every single minute of it!
Viva la Vida!
