3073km Away

Yes, that's how far Singapore is away from Taiwan. And currently Taiwan's weather is 27°C at its hottest, and 18 at it's coldest. So friends, do not expect me to pick up my phone between 21st to 28th Dec 08, because I will be 3073km away. Not sure how costly for the international call, but better play safe not to call, then sorry.
This pilgrimage trip certainly does not make me dance around in enthusiasm, but bringing my camera around does make a bit of difference. And the fact that I do not need to work until next year does make me excited no matter where I go.
Hope this trip does push me forward a bit, as I realize I'm lacking behind be it spiritually or in terms of my current drive in doing things. So if you ask me again if I need a break, I definitely do. Wholly bigtime.
At then end of every year, I will ask myself (usually with a big sigh) what I have achieved for the year. And here I come again. Haiz. I'm not trying to be pessimistic but honestly I didn't hit a high in my life tachometer.
But rest assured, I will have my Year 2009 planned out well before it comes. Some phrases might be commonly used next year:
Heroes are born during bad times.
A great horse does not look back and eat the grass behind it.
If there is fate, two will eventually meet up from 500 meters, if there isn't, two beside each other will only be passerbys.
Apologize for the lousy translation. Some phrases are not meant to be translated.
