When everything does not go as planned

When I was 16, I had it all planned out. The great 10-year-plan, where my life was headed, how it would turn out and how its gonna be. 

Fast-forward 10 years to NOW. Is it anywhere near what I had planned? NO. Is it going to be? I DON'T KNOW.

Somewhere over the last 10 years, my dreams and goals in life have slightly changed. I still remember what my ultimate goal in life was. But right now, I'm thinking that I should just live in the moment and seize the unexpected. Sounds weird, unplanned and very spontaneous but something over the last couple of months has changed me in a way even I don't know. Heck, I don't really know what I want anymore. Ask me what I wanted in life 2 years ago and I would have given you a long essay. Ask me now and I'll say, " We shall see where the river flows". This of course is not going down very well with my parents ( I haven't told them about my change of plans yet) and they keep mentioning when I'm going to carry on with my "future plans" and I keep making excuses to delay them.

I'm trying not to over think this, maybe its just my quarter-life-crisis, or maybe I don't want the same things I wanted in life 10 years ago. Either way, I'll  just let things play it out and I'll decide later. I'm very happy with where I am in life right now, lets not ruin that now shall we?

Crossroads

Sometimes in life, we get a chance to do something which might change our lives for the better, but it involves  sacrificing some form of comfort. Well, to look at it in a whole, its more of a give and take situation. Its like giving up shopping so that you can save money, or something around that line. 

There is where I am right now. With opportunity for change knocking at every corner, I wonder if I should remain static, or should I do it? Make a move that will change my career. 

Can't decide right now. But what's for sure, I'll be deciding pretty soon. And I hope I get something good from it.

Hoping that my mini ramblings will solve my crossroad issue, lets move on to something I am more than happy to share with everyone,my Cambodia trip! :) I've already booked my hotel, now am just waiting to see the right price for the air ticket to purchase it. Am feeling very happy about my Siam Reap trip. Have been wanting to see the Angkor Wat and the killing fields and I hope that I get to do that on my trip. 

First Saturday of February

The second month of 2013 is here. Spent the day with my bff since kindergarten (no, m not kidding, we've been friends since that long), haven't met her since we came back from Sydney. Spent a good time catching up and planning our next trip ( Hint: Cruise! :D ) We decided to head to Sunway Pyramid where we attacked every possible store doing some last minute CNY shopping.

Watched Hansel and Gretel and let me tell you now, DON'T WATCH THAT MOVIE. Unless you have nothing else better to watch and you want to see some blood and pass time. Seriously was a waste of time. Should have just went for skating instead!

We were deciding which places we should visit and here's the list:

1. Canada (Niagara Falls)
2. Beijing ( The Great Wall)
3. Kathmandu
4. Cambodia
5. Phuket & Krabi
6. Germany

Lets see how much we can accomplish in the coming years.
