Wanderlust

Pardon me for the hiatus and irregular postings for the past few weeks. Its starting to get crazy, be it school, friends or family.

I was on the way to send my family off to China for holiday on Monday. While i was in the cab, reaching the airport, i had this strong urge to just travel off to any foreign country. It doesn't really matter, i'm used to be with strangers because there no obligation at all.

You know, i used to see it in the movie, where the character set off to travel around the world, claiming that he/she wants to find out who they really are. I used to think that was bullshit because its no different than running away.

But now, when i come to think of it. It doesn't sound so bad. I guess everyone needs to take a breather sometime, to get away, to wait because actions doesn't always bring solutions. Like me, in the end, i ended up tired and lost. Lost about where you are and who you really are.

Oh well, since i still can't afford to travel by myself. I came out with a list of things that i want to do for the next few months and i just ticked off a box by getting a new haircut.

Now, i've already had a good start towards my recovery.

The Unknown Lark

Ever wonder on who you might have meet when you missed that very train? Be it when you're rushing for school, work or appointment. You might have meet that very person, that special someone who is destined to be your closest friend or life partner.




If only you have cut down the time on styling your hair, snoozing or checking your email before leaving your house, you might have get the chance to meet that person.







That sudden rush of blood to the head, electrified eye contacts and fidgeting hands... To me, that's one of the few beauties of taking public transport. The chances of meeting people who you'll see only once in your lifetime. For some, i saw them a few times whenever i took the train and read stories from their faces.





Oh well, just one of my fantasies whenever i'm alone travelling. The need to reach out, to copulate, to understand are so strong yet all of this is done within my fantasy. My tutorial lecturer once shared that the relationship within fantasy is always better than the reality. I can't help but to agree.




"We slept in the shadow of the cedar tree,
we made love on the rising tide.
We smelled the perfume of the waxing moon,
we dreamt of all friendships kind."
