Recent hobby

This is what I have been doing in the last few months hence neglecting this blog a little.

View from the top

When I take a deep breath on top of a mountain I’ve just climbed, I feel I have been rewarded for all my efforts.

When I look around the magnificent views around me, I feel this world is so harmonious and trouble-free.

When I admire the wonderful works of the creator, I feel so tiny and insignificant on this enormous piece of land.

When I peek at the aerial view of the city I’m landing in or leaving from, it brings overflowing emotions running down my face.

Spring in love

As the ice melts away, there seems to be signs of life again.

The aromas of flowers blossoming and fresh cut grass hits your nostrils.

Don’t you think spring just smells like love?

Travel is my drug

Sometimes destination is the focus, like going to Peru felt like a mini pilgrimage for me.

Sometimes people is the key, like how you can still have an amazing time even tho you are stuck indoors the whole weekend because it’s raining cats and dogs.

Several years ago, I was travelling twice a month and ticking off the countries off my map. Nowadays, friends are dropping their jaws when they hear that my next trip is not until June *shock horror*.

Travel is still my drug, I’m just taking it in different doses.

One lonely journey

Life is just one lonely journey.

You are surrounded by people all the time whether it be on the bus, at work and even at home. But do any of them make an impact on your life?

When you go through tough times, your close friends might say ‘I know how you feel’, but do they really?!?!

You might even have a long term partner who you do life with, but in the end the one single person you spend most time with is just yourself.

2012 Stats

The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2012 annual report for this blog.

Here’s an excerpt:

600 people reached the top of Mt. Everest in 2012. This blog got about 5,500 views in 2012. If every person who reached the top of Mt. Everest viewed this blog, it would have taken 9 years to get that many views.
