Visiting Ipswich

(Brooding, sulking like a little kid in the corner) (Playing video games)

What’s wrong?

I really wanted to visit Ipswich… you didn’t take me seriously about it.

Oh my god. You’re STILL THINKING about Ipswich?!

Yes…

Why?

It’s somewhere I’ve never been before…

Okay… well… I guess I could call up the friend, but she’s really busy… she works from home. We can’t just rock up to her house unannounced and disrupt her corporate work from home meetings.

Oh… (pouting)

(Chuckles)

What?

Do you really know what Ipswich is going to be like? What have you been reading on Google? What YouTuber or Influencer, or whoever, said that Ipswich was a cool place? (LOL)

Nobody. I couldn’t find much information. It’s not… talked about?

(Bursts out laughing) Exactly! It’s not a “trendy” place to visit. It’s not LONDON. PARIS. NEW YORK. SHANGHAI.

That makes me want to GO EVEN MORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Why?!

Because… I’ve been to those “trendy” cities — they’re BORING.

Oh… well.. you might find Ipswich boring, too… it’s a small… town/city?! It’s like in between a town and a city in size?! It’s really, just… a regular… small-ish town-city type of suburban area in Australia… there’s lots of “Ipswiches” all over the map.

Can you see how I haven’t experienced anything like that in my life for such a long time? For years now, I’ve just been getting ushered between tinted windows, cars, security, crowds at the airport — I haven’t experienced an “IPSWICH” —

Hmm. Okay. Okay, let’s go. Let’s go to Ipswich.

Yay!!! (So excited like a little kid, squealing and clapping his hands!!!) “We’re going to IPSWICH!!”

(LOL) (Hugs & Kisses)
