It is very easy to judge people...

but it is very difficult to judge yourself. I've been in KL for the past 2 weeks or so and I must say that I am very surprised with the reaction of some people. They immediately expect you to put on some kind of signboard around your neck saying "I am back"...or maybe they expected me to advertise in the newspapers that I came back for 3 weeks.

If you don't tell them that you came back, you get angry phone calls and worse - you get ignored when they see you in person. You would think absence makes the heart grow fonder, considering these are people who knew me as a baby, but no, that is just not the case.

Oh well, you live and learn.
