2010 Travel Diary

•November 25, 2010 • Leave a Comment

Met a friend for dinner yesterday and we chatted about our holidays in 2010. Here is the list of where I explored this almost-to-end Year 2010.

*Apparently, I have been travelling almost every 2 months.. haha where did all the money come from? And where did all the money go to?

  1. March 6-9 – Phuket, Thailand (Dive trip)
  2. May 25-31 – Sipadan, Malaysia (Dive trip)
  3. June 24-26 – Pulau Aur, Malaysia (Dive trip)
  4. August 6-9 – Pulau Redang, Malaysia (Dive trip)
  5. October 2-11 – Guangzhou/Zhuhai, China & Macau & Hong Kong (Land trip)
  6. November 5-7 – Pulau Tioman, Malaysia (Dive trip)
  7. December 31-January 5 – Manado, Indonesa (Dive trip) *Last trip for 2010*

6 dive trips and 1 land trip. Indeed I do prefer the dive trips more than the land/shopping trip. Getting close to nature is definitely more mind calming than chionging with the shopping crowd. That’s what holidays are for, to sooth your inner self so to chiong further in the rat race.

———————————————————————————-

Plan for Year 2011? Have 1 dive trip booked for August and many trips in the planning.

  1. December 31-January 5 – Manado, Indonesia (Dive trip) *First trip for 2011*
  2. August 4-10 – Bali, Indonesia (Dive trip)

Mid-life crisis?

•November 20, 2010 • Leave a Comment

I think I am going through it now. Ain’t it too early? This crisis supposed to surface during the 40s-60s. I thought so too but the symptons seem so apt.

So lost and still turning in circles after 2 months or so. Everything is just not right. Work, life & love. And irritation kicks in real easily!

Signs of mid-life crisis:

Does that mean my life span will end at 60? GG! And these symptons, seem to have appeared 1 by 1 like 4-5 months before.

All I can feel now is depression. Work? Sucks. I hate my new job. Life? Sucks. It’s on the down period now as well. Love? Sucks. I think he’s my karma.

Move, baby. Move!

How? Good question cum answer. If only it can be as simple as throwing a coin or a dice.

—————————————–

4 more months. I am not anticipating it. The thought of it irks me.

I should plan something like Eat.Pray.Love. Go wonder somewhere alone. Always wanted to do that but stopped by concerned friends time after time. Maybe I will get robbed or raped somewhere in some dark alley overseas. Or drugged and be sold somewhere as prostitutes or slaves. Well, guess we watched too many dramas.

Grey’s Anatomy: If I go missing, will anyone realise it? Will anyone look for me?

17-21 maybe. I’m just not a fan of celebrating my own birthday. Cos it means I’m 1 yr closer to death and unfinished business. But I love receiving presents!! Destination: unknown. There are a few places I wanna go. Vietnam, Cambodia, Cameron, Krabi, Tibet, etc.

2 weeks plus has passed. My friend, Swayness is still with me. When are you leaving? I don’t really welcome you you know?

Posts have been on the down side of late I realised. When was the last time I was really happy and laughed heartily? I need to find the sunshine back in my life. Maybe I should get myself a Sunshine Carebear! (Not funny. Yet lame.)

What?

My favourite duo singing ‘Love is over’ and ‘是否’.

Presence

Thank you guys for being there every week.

Your presence meant a lot to me.

—————————————–

It’s weird how some guys try to hit on you, and maybe try to strike a topic or two with ya, but the topics are weird. They get so up close and personal with the questions. E.g. what’s your favourite position? do you brazilian wax? i have good vibes for you, what about you?

WTF. How well do I know you to let you know such personal stuff about me? And you sure are brave enough to ask such questions when I barely know you through 1 dive trip. What’s in that pea brain of yours? You are just scaring new friends off. Weird is an understatement for you.

Or do I give that kind of impression that I am just any wasted girl whom can just fuck around like nobody’s business? Utter insult. And yes I feel offended with those questions. Totally disrespectful.

High education with no basic EQ. That’s pathetic shit TTM. Do you even know the basic essence of communication skills?

You don’t belong in my world and can jolly well fuck off to the other side of the universe.

NBCB!

14 November 2010.

My 1st tattoo. Virginity broken.

Finally. After years of uncertainty.

Pain? Not really.

And I love it.

Sank and drowned

My heart sank upon hearing it.

And next, I drowned with the sinking.

This goodbye is for ever.

Period.
