Connecting the Dots

"Again, you can't connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something — your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever."

- Steve Jobs

ROUTETRIP. Can't wait too.

Once in a while, we need to fall apart in order to get right back up again, only stronger this time. We sometimes lose ourselves, for us stay put for a while, grab some time to look back at how far we've come, at the same time see where we're heading to. If we keep going non-stop, we'll either get out of breathe very soon, or head to the wrong direction right?

We get vulnerable at times. Once we pour our hearts out, we'll somehow or another be opened to that weaker side of us. To be willing to accept yet overcome it, be detached from those feelings, get less dependent on others and rely on ourselves. That's called learning and growing.

Move Eat Learn

3 guys, 44 days, 11 countries, 18 flights, 38 thousand miles, an exploding volcano, 2 cameras and almost a terabyte of footage… all to turn 3 ambitious linear concepts based on movement, learning and food ….into 3 beautiful and hopefully compelling short films…..

= a trip of a lifetime.

Hope you'll still be alright there.

These few months, or so almost this whole year, are filled with lotta thinking and decision making. So much so that I even pen them down in my humble notebook every now and then, when I'd usually rumble them in nonsensical order here in this page. I thought I've burnt a lot of brain cells last year while studying for As, but this year involves different set of thinking.... It's more like...... planning. Making important decisions to prepare myself for the future. Like, choosing my school, deciding whether I should do this and that and this and that.

I cannot be scared, no I can't be. You gotta ask around and search for what you want, instead of that something magically appearing in front of you. 'Cause, it won't come to you so easily. It's never that simple... unless lady luck is with you (;

Be braver, to face things alone. Heck those tiny little insecurities!

Day 1, and it's already raining so heavily since early in the morning!!! Please be well.

I was born to surf.

This is why I wake up at the crack of dawn everyday.

This is why I endure belly rashes, reef cuts, muscles so tired they feel like noodles.

And I've learnt that life is a lot like surfing.

When you get caught in the impact zone, you need to get right back up,

because you never know what's over the next wave.

And if you have faith, anything is possible.

Anything at all.

I'm gonna get right back up, ready for next 3 years where I'll be surfing the next big wave.

Hiiii Fartface

This is robbing away my senses and logic.
We'll be driving ourselves crazy.
But I kinda like it this way.

Back from camp at ubin.

Still loving bumboat ride.

The friendly villagers.

Talk crap with the boys.

Scream while bathing under the sky,

looking at coconut trees while shampooing.

Powder bathing (still our fave!)

Sing and dance in the rain.

Shiver in the freaking strong wind.

Maybe that's why they felt we were young,

i.e., childish and immature.

For the First Time

The sky's so blue.
The grass's so green.
And the weather is warm.
On the bus, that made me think,
How lucky I am to have such supportive parents
Such wonderful siblings,
And indescribably more than special friends.
Life's good.

So long, for the first time
After that fateful 4th of march
My eyes glistered in the sun.
Realizing how fortunate I am in this world
And finally understanding how tough this competition is.

But i will hold on hope
And keep on trying.
For this second onwards,
I will do so much better
Than I can ever, ever imagine.

Everything changes.

People change. Who they are yesterday might not be the same today. Is it for the better, or for the worst? We can't judge, for what we see and feel when we are with them simply shows how they behave when they are with us, which does not show who they really are, but just part of who they are.

When we feel they did not do things right, should we tell them? Of course, that's for their good, and we have nothing to lose. Then again, how do we draw the line between right and wrong, good and bad? It's really our perception.

No matter what, I choose to see the good in everyone.

But it's worth it, all worth it.

Anyway,

"in case anything happens and i can't use my phone on that day"

<3

As much as i'm trying hard to get there, i'm still clueless as to where to go thereafter. And that, being aimless, takes us nowhere.

But no, I'm not gonna let anyone or anything pull me down. That is what I want, and in time to come, when I get more exposed to the outside world, I would be able to craft out a much clearer picture of this scary yet exciting thing called future.
