The Journey

'Sometimes love is not enough and the road gets tough'

"There is a sense of achievement, when you can finally start to look at something from a different angle, which makes you understand more about the bigger picture. It takes maturity and great courage, to let go of something so dearly to you.. for the good of people around you and for the sake of your future. It is as if you have the power to control your dream, but then you choose to wake up from a beautiful dream because you realise that afterall you have to live in reality. It sucks when it first hits you. That sometimes no matter how much you 'dream' about something and how much you fight for it, certain things are not meant to happen."



So today is 11th.. just 2 days before the big day. This morning I went to town with my relatives. We went to ION, Tangs Plaza and Paragon. They have never been to Orchard Road before, so it was quite an experience :) They said the area where I live is so quiet and Orchard is just the total opposite. I explained to them that in Singapore everything is clustered and of course town area is the busiest among all. They took the MRT for the first time too, and told me how in Holland the seats are arranged differently. They are arranged like the seats in a small plane, with an aisle in the middle. So the people are facing the head of the train ( do you get what I mean ? I hope you do ). Well, with such an arrangement not many people can actually stand up because there isn't much space left. What's so cool about the Metro ( yes.. they call it a Metro instead of MRT ) is that there is a special section for people with bicycle. In Singapore, only folded bicycles are allowed and come on.... folded bicycle is just soo.. rare. Besides that, the Metro can take them to Paris in just 3 hours time ! To think of it, 3 hours are like 2 Singapores away. HAHA. The Metro can also take them to London.. How cool is that !! I wish Singapore extends its MRT to Jakarta so that I can go back anytime I want with just one 'tap'. *dream on* I am so looking forward to travel to Europe once I have a stable job and earn my own money. As for now, I shall be satisfied with an MRT that could bring me around the big Singapore :)

-I tried to find the metro picture online but couln't find a nice one :< -


I am going to do something fun tomorrow and I am really looking forward to it..
Maybe I shall not spoil it here.. :)
But it's definitely something that I've never done before..
And I hope it turns out nice



Goodnight beautiful people and may the odds be ever in your favor
