Autumn in Suzhou

I was feeling light headed today, as it is my last day of work for the week. Because I was transferred to an office at SND Suzhou New District, which is more than an hour bus ride from my apartment. I spoke with my boss about the inconvenience of traveling to and fro everyday, to trade off for the inconvenience, he adjusted my working hours and cancelled my friday. I now have 3 day weekends... How cool can that be?



After finishing my work and declaring it a weekend for me, I decided to walk from the bus stop going to my part time job. It was a nice afternoon to walk with my ipod. While walking, I saw a lot of leaves on the ground. It's officially Autumn in Suzhou. A lot of dried yellow leaves are scattered beside their tree.
I remembered almost a year ago, I posted in my old blog a song that a colleague from my previous job introduce me. Autumn Leaves by ATB.
I can still picture the time when I was taking my sandwich at our pantry, listening to the same song and just wishing to disappear and be transported to another land.
Now here I am experiencing the first taste of Autumn in a foreign land.

Let me share this with you:

Autumn Leaves
ATB

I woke under the cover of darkness
Looked up into the television sky Tonight
I wandered through the city alone this Rain wouldn't stop,
I couldn't dry my eyes I cried
Who is the one to blame
Why is it that you never say ...when the feeling leaves...if you're through with me
As I'm walking through the rain
Cold tears falling down my face...like the autumn leaves...on a windy day
I went to the edge of town
Over bright highways where the traffic was the only sound
Around
While my eyes were looking at the ground
I could see pictures of you floating all aroundI didn't doubt
Who is the one to blame
Why is it that you never say ...when the feeling leaves...if you're through with me
As I'm walking through the rain
Cold tears falling down my face...like the autumn leaves...on a windy day
Who is the one to blame
Why is it that you never say ...when the feeling leaves...if you're through with me
As I'm walking through the rain
Cold tears falling down my face...like the autumn leaves...on a windy day
Who is the one to blame
Why is it that you never say ...when the feeling leaves...if you're through with me
As I'm walking through the rain
Cold tears falling down my face...like the autumn leaves...on a windy day
Who is the one to blame
Why is it that you never say ...when the feeling leaves...if you're through with me
As I'm walking through the rain
Cold tears falling down my face...like the autumn leaves...on a windy day
