Hello cyber space, I feel great reluctance to leave you. Somehow I feel like when I leave the internet and its wireless connection with the world, I feel lonelier. See what social media has created- this 'real' sense of reliance to be in constant connection with the world.
Now, even with my phone, I am not being connected enough. Argh. Whats worse, my internet has been down the whole day so I need to borrow half an hour from my sister's mobile broadband to use the net.
But yes, I will enjoy my holidays. 5 days at Sydney, 5 days of new adventure and experiences. Time to open my eyes to the world out there and time to take more photos again! :) Which reminds me, Samuel owes me a photo. Ha.
Ning and GS, please have fun at YCC. Remember the line.
Tom, please have fun too. Smile more. HHAHAH!
Jean. Please study and not keep emoing. Just abit more!!!
Dear. LOVE YOU! :)
I've no idea who else reads my blog but yaa, Gosh I will be missing out alot! And everytime I miss going to a YCC, I can only go 6 months later. 6 mths is a long time so its almost like never. Sigh, I imagine the cheering, the encouragement, the sweat, the laughter, the uncontrollable smiles. AH. I want to be there tooooo!! I want to look at everyone and get that feeling everytime I volunteer. That sense of achievement that I made someone else happy. The feeling of knowing my presense on earth counts. My mum will never understand that. But its okay, it takes time to convince her that money isnt everything, personal development and management skills are very important for us to grow too.
If power is what she is looking for: Sometimes, the ability to give back to society gives you a greater sense of power than money/status does.
If its satisfaction: Yes material goods bring about happiness, but loving someone else makes me satisfied too.
I will convince her one day.
As of now, BYEBYE virtual world. I will be back in 5 days. Which is damn fast.
