and once again, the much anticipated get-away is here and confirmed! this time round, we're venturing into a place full of its rich culture, the unique accent and language that the people holds, of the elephants being the most adored animals, of the uncountable temples which many bow their heads to, and of course, the many flavours of this food haven! we've travelled by sea and land before. this time, we're going by air! what's more, it's just only the 2 of us!
the plan was planned months ago, and when the opportunity comes by, we thought why not just grab it! and hullah! we just did! and for now, we're gonna be busy with the pre-trip preparation that's due on mid-may. it seriously doesn't seems too far away from us yea. judging by the fact that our weekdays are burnt at work, which left us a short weekend to do our preparation.
hotel bookings is underway, shopping for luggage is one of the option though not necessary. understanding more of their culture, reading up on the must-go-places and the must-eat-food and the must-do-things. i'm so so so excited!
and my recent days were somewhat busy. the new job i had is kind of my cup of tea. the many new friends made were good. some funny, some weird, some intelligent ones, and well, some scholars to be. but most of all, this new exposure enables me to really have a very intimate close up at how embarrassing singaporeans can be. sometimes, i do not feel proud to be a singaporean. but with no choice to choose but to choose this the only choice, i'm one. some are totally idiotic and stupid. many are unreasonable. some were pretty good. and of course, i've had my hands-on on this best taxi driver i've met thus far.
which kinda questioned myself that does religion really constitutes a human behavior? i've never had a good impression on any cabbies driver before. but this one man, made me feel that he is the nicest of all. thus greatly offsets the little argument i had with another cab driver the day before.
but anyway, things are pretty good though tiring that i have to wake up early every morning recently. and just last sunday, i visited my maternal grandma's grave for qing ming and with the many army personnel's and police officers walking around the cemeteries made me wonder if all these is just necessary. things aren't that simple as what all of us think. it is definately more than meets the eye.
just days back, i pondered about the importance and significance of every little english word. a simple thank you could mean the entire world to someone. a simple smile could light up the life of another one. and sorry could mend millions of broken hearts worldwide. but it makes me wonder that perhaps these words are often taken either too lightly or too often that the impact of it ain't the way it should be anymore. ooh well, pride can certainly kill anything that's suppose to stand strong. but then again, ain't these words the basis of life? just like a simple "i love you" could make hearts closer? it's too late when the heart starts realizing what's important to it when the thing's gone. try not to be always too late. =))
and now, time to go back to reality where i'm gonna continue writing my thoughts in my hearts and i shall see you guys soon! hopefully!
adios!
