Time really flies. It's Oct now and soon, 2006 will be behind us. I think time is never enough when you are getting older. Somehow, you wish that the pace of life will just slow down for you to catch your breath and take stock of all that's happening around you. Seems like people in Singapore can't have this privilege. Life in this little beautiful island is a series of deadlines and targets to be met. Hoping that my upcoming trip to Thailand can at least let me catch my breath back.
Had my first clubbing experience in quite a while on Fri night. The location was Gotham Penthouse and though the crowd was not what I had expected, I had fun nonetheless. Been quite a long time since I had mindless fun. Think this is what I need to unwind at times.
22 years old is an awkward age. You are neither a youth anymore nor a fully fledged adult. It is like learning to walk all over again. People will be expecting more from you and of course, you will also be expecting more from yourself. No more childlike behaviour and having to start behaving like an adult. Dealing with serious issues such as your career and the course of your life. Well, everyone had to go through this stage. I am sure that you will come out the better of it. Happiness is not that hard to grasp. I am sure you will figure it out.
Caught World Trade Centre on Sat night (Due to the constant haggling of Guowei). Been a long long time since I caught a midnight movie. I am really thankful for the gang for suiting to my needs and catching the show at Tampines Mall. The haze was irritating both my nose and eyes. I was seriously thinking about staying at home for the whole weekend. Well, at least I was out for a while. Today was simply spent rotting at home the whole day.
World Trade Centre is a movie preaching the greatness of love. Not one scene in the movie was directed at the cruelness and stupidity of the terrorist. The movie focuses on the two men trapped inside the rubble. Images of their loved ones flashed through the minds of these two men. These images were the key factor that kept them alive.
If you had been following the news, you will know that the problem of terrorism is still very real. Hatred still filled the minds of these terrorist. For reason that is beyond my mind. When you are on your deathbed or in trouble, the first thing that come to your mind won't be the one you hate or dislike. It will be your loved ones. People such as your family, spouse or close friends. People who gave you the will to live on. To endure all these pain and cross all these obstacles in front of you. Love had always made us stronger. Love had always keep us sane through all these troubled times.
I am praying for World Peace. If it don't happen in my generation, at least make it a reality for the next generation. No more mindless killings or violence. I am absolutely sure that different religions can co exist in this planet. For those 2749 innocent lifes that were lost on 11 Sept 2001, I hope that all these talks of world peace will not be just hot air.
You can take a picture of something you see. In the future where will I be?
