Bittersweet symphony...

3:00 AM May 12th 2009
I am alone in my room listening to Coldplay and waiting for Linh to call me one last time before she boards her flight. She took a train to Bucharest from Oradea yesterday evening. I have been observing her very keenly for the last one week because this is exactly how my departure is going to be and exactly how I would feel... A sense of melancholic euphoria...a mad rush to fulfill the unfulfilled...the longing...for home and for this city. A day before she left I was in her room with Carmen helping her pack her luggage. Watching her squeeze in all her clothese into her bag, it made me wonder, will the bag be big enough to fit in the memories all three of us are gonna carry back home with us?
To quote someone ;)

"I dont want to think, but all the little things I did just jump into my mind, like a movie of memories..."

Every nook and corner of this city has a special moment attached to it...
The first day in the Camin, trying to explain to my camin-mates that I am really hungry...getting lost in the snow...having a coffee and a cigarette in the balcony, basking in the sun...getting caught while peeing in the bushes by the paza...watching taniya giggle for an hour for no reason...to watching Linh eat piept de pui with a fork and knife...
Damn! If this is a movie, I dont want it to end. Not right now. Its too early. Its coming to an end, but not quite. Its almost a perfect movie, its got romance, comedy, really hot girls, really warm people, a few fights, a few kisses, a lil bit of sex, drugs, rock n roll! What more would you want!
If you are watching this movie with me, or if you play a role in it, hang on, we still have a few more scenes to shoot.

Till then,
Love,
Chin...

P.S - Greetings on behalf of Linh, me and taniya to this wonderful wonderful guy we met in Romania and unfortunately the only person who will be coming back with us home....Mr. Palinca D'Bihor ;-P
Cheers!
