Prologue: Live Life

finally back and i'm so tired. perth is quite awesome, i love it. i think i look a lil burnt and peeled from the sunny-cold weather there. from where i stayed, the beach has lovely sunsets. the houses are so pretty structured, with tiny detailed porches, lil fences and gardens. i hope to own a house over at cottesloe beach. the food prices there are killer-expensive though. this morning i had one of the best breakfast ever, in a week. breakfast @ changi airport's macs HAHA.

ok i think this post will never end, i can continue talking about my trip and every single detail. so i should stop. photos up next! or check fb.

off to bed!

This morning, i woke up feeling like i havent caught a wink the whole night. Uncountable thoughts going through my mind, but amazingly i am feeling quite fresh right now. I am looking forward to flying, into a new territory and bask in the new surroundings! Travelling is essential to rejunevate the mind body and soul. Now that school's over, this marks the time for a new beginning and change. I'm slowly creeping into the double digit years of life. The awesome 20 years of existence. I love my mom, albeit her never ending grumbles and naggings, i know she cares. When i have kids of my own, i will love them just like a fat kid loves cake.

'nuff of talking. gotta shower, get my ass down to beach road, get a friggin backpack, go for training, come home and pack my clothes for perth.

HAVE A GREAT DAY YA'LL

Why would i want to travel alone?
This person puts it in a way i heartfully agree

The second most common question usually relates to “How can you travel alone?” or “I could never do that” or “I’m trying to find someone to go with….”

It may feel safer to partner up with someone from home, and I’ll admit that there were times I would have sawed off fingers for a familiar face, but you may be cheating yourself. I watched many people traveling in pairs or groups simply stick to themselves in a little bastion of cliquey comfort and safety, barely noticing the new culture or people around them. Many times they didn’t even look happy.

As a loner, I feel that I received an entirely different trip experience in the same place. I also feel that my trip had more resounding spiritual benefits rather than just “entertainment” value. I had time to know myself.

Whatever your travel style is, shake up your comfort settings at some point and give it a try.

In many countries on the backpacking circuit (especially if you look different than the locals) you may have to TRY to be alone! So many times I only wanted some time to myself for reflecting and updating my journal when a stranger sat down and started asking the usual questions….”Where are you from?”, “Where have you been?”, “How long are you traveling?”…..

It does not matter how introverted you are, it is impossible not to meet new people when you are traveling alone. Plus, as a bonus, there is no debate on where to go next, where to eat, where to stay….for one of the first times in your life you are truly free.

As expected, I told my new friend goodbye and watched as she walked across the plank to a rumbling diesel ferry. All I was left with was an email and a lifetime memory…..but when I felt my rucksack biting into my shoulders, I knew that it was time to move on. With every adventure that ends, a new one is not far away.

The sadness of the goodbye melted and suddenly I was smiling. No doubt she was sitting on her boat doing the same. The road always wins.

GRAD SHOWCASE VIDEO

COME COME COME!

Have been pretty busy lately but thats busy without the STRESS. Trainings have been quite i-don't-know, been running my guts out. Stomach's churning like crazy after running. Spent Sat with my sis @ WildWildWet. Yesterday was quite awesome. Took an hr bus ride from my place to Sengkang before taking the train back again, my butt was hurting when i got down. Haha! Orchard road is booring. I couldn't stand walking around after 15mins. Had dinner over @ Little India with the white cousin, omggg the WHOLE place was filled with bangla workers i thought i was in India for real. I love Indian food though *thumbs up* Afterwhich we caught "PUSH" @ Cathay. It was unexpectedly good. Story can be better but i liked the cinematography. Was dead beat when i reached home at 12am. Woke up to macs breakfast (my 3rd macs meal in a week) so yummy. DAMNIT i hear the rumbling wind outside! So dark and gloomy. A STORM'S COMING! Will be down @ dhoby ghaut later AGAIN it'll be my 3rd time in 2 days.

The Navy should stop mailing me stuffs. Seriously. Last night, my mom was being a pisser (as usual) she thought i bought things online and was quite furious that there was a package for me. "I know its slippers inside! I can feel it. Why do you even have to get slippers from the net?" I couldn't remember if i actually got anything online. She angrily snapped the plastic and shove the stuffs right in my face. It was already 12 midnight?! I was half asleep and there she was, beside me blabbering away. Then i saw "THE NAVY" logo on the package. GAWD. MY MOM GOT JACKED!

Thanks but no thanks. I am not very interested in joining the SAF. I'd rather live on land.

I detest straightness.
