one of my resols for 2011..

To travel, but not to over-travel.

Meaning, at most 1 trip per quarter even if its to nearby getaways. As long as its gg to spend more than a day, with a chop in my passport, its a trip.

So far, I'm still doing good. Yeah!

bits & pieces..

Trip updates
All accomodation booked. All transport arranged. Maps, some printed some not. Insurance, not yet.

Can't wait for the day to come for me to bring down my northface bag and start dumping the mustbrings in. Oh, how I missed packing for a trip.

Yeah.18 more days to go!

Random bits..
It's said that 2011 is not a good year for those born in the year of the boar. There will be more downs then ups. Work, r/s, health, family, fortune, nothing much will be gg your way. So, the best is to lie low and not make much changes.

In actual fact, I'm scared. I do not know what this year will bring but i told myself to be prepared for the worst.

Or shld I go all out and take whatever comes by its horns and turn it into my way. Will I have the strength?

Again, I asked myself. What do I really want. For myself.

Happy Lunar New Year

大年初一,I spent my morning in the office. Kinda drag my time around, not wanting to go home so early. Since as long as I can remember, the first day of the cny were always spent at grandma's.Today, we didn't do any visiting. We just stayed in.

Seems like just any public holiday to me. I didnt do any ny shopping this time round. Partly because I still have some new items from my bkk trip last Oct and partly because I dun see myself in need of ny clothings.

While on the train this morning, I felt like I wasn't part of this cny celebration. I felt like I was alone in a foreign country, not having anywhere to visit. I see ppl in new clothes, on their way to friends or relatives, with their oranges in the little red paper bag. It sure feels weird to not be participating in this.

But I guess, I will get used to it.
