20 January

It didn't happen then and it didn't happen now.

Cause we're just a speck of dust.

All I wanted was just a text or an acknowledgement from my parents.

Wow.

Cold.

36

I guess no on will love you deeply like a child loving her mom.

I also guess you cannot give anyone as much love as you would give your child.

So, my love lives and dies with me.

A life. Alive.

Hitting another wall of my life.

This will be my 4th wall and I think it will  complete the room of my life.

2002
2006
2013
2016

Urgh.
I feel sick.

Don't go chasing waterfalls

First post for the year.

Last year marked the beginning of the slow death of my blog. I was uninspired and tired. Well, it's the 6th day of 2016 and ...well...I'm still uninspired. Will do something about this, that's for sure.

All in due time.

Anyway...what have I been doing? Hah. Had an epic journey to Eastern Europe last month where I finally got to see the Danube river, something I had been wanting to see since I was a teenager.

10th December 2015 saw Lauren and me setting off to Munich, Germany. It was not a pleasant ride but, oh well, we managed to land safely and all. Munich was foggy but was not as cold as we expected. We managed to go see Neuschwanstein castle (among many other things), catch up with Meiting who  flew in from London and also watch a football match between Bayern Munich and Ingolstadt.

5 days later, we bundled on a train and choo-chooed ourselves to Prague, Czech Republic. Stayed in a cool apartment with a rooftop view offered AirBnB. Charles Bridge was of course on the itinerary, together with the madness that was the Prague Castle. The highlight of the trip was our evening at the opera house. Managed to watch 'Christmas at the Movies' and it was a fantastic, eargasmic experience.

Three nights later, we packed our bags again and toot-tooted our way to Vienna, Austria. Saw many old buildings like St Stephen's Cathedral and the Natural History Museum (which I love cause there are real dinosaur bones in there!) but my most favourite was the majestic Rathaus or Town Hall, simply because it had the most exciting and prettiest Chrismas market I'd ever seen. The food was the best of the lot and the soup breads were yummy. Goulash, anyone?

The last leg saw us heading to Budapest, Hungary where, personally, I found love. Well, with the place that is. The thick fog that enveloped us most of the time made it look more romantic. Out of all the places we went, going up the Castle Hill, loitering outside the magnificent Parliament Building, shopping at the Central Market and taking a dinner cruise on the Danube were utmostly memorable. Tiring? You bet it was but pressed on we did.

Anyway, it's already the 3rd day of school and things, as expected, are running wild and chaotic. Hope the situation will stabilise soon cause I am not one for chaos and disorder. Being an introvert and surrounded with many humans and noise ...not good for my well-being, haha.

Oh.
I'm turning 36 in 2 weeks' time.
Holy cow.

That aside, I bought a ticket to Jakarta over the CNY period. Bought on a whim cause I didnt want to waste my long break. So...get ready for me, JTown!
