I wanna get out

It may only be early March, I may still have another trip this coming May, but it has not deter my mind from thinking about December and my ORD trip. I have long wanted to live in anywhere but Singapore and this December I will finally have the chance to fufil that dream. It is not because I detest Singapore but because I find no peace and serenity here at all. I wanna be somewhere where nobody knows me, nobody judges me and I can live all by myself and experience a new kind of lifestyle. Even if it is just for a month the most, it is something I relish and look forward to.

Although I have yet to submit my application for my full time degree course, I forecast the course will begin somewhere in Feburary or even July so I will have at least more than a month to seek paradise somewhere. I want to go to somewhere where there is winter, where there is snow, where white christmas isn't just a dream. I've shortlisted afew places, amongst them seoul, tokyo, paris, and shanghai. I'm able to afford Paris but I'm very doubtful for that one because I've always wanted that for my honeymoon and besides, if I were to get so far to a place like Paris, I would also like to visit the famous wine yards and farms. That leaves the asian countries as the more realistic targets. I will give myself a timeline of up to my Birthday to book the air tickets. It would be great to have companion but I'm fine without it also. There are people who ask isn't it pathetic going overseas alone? Well, it depends on how an individual sees it, remember the last blog entry? Enough said.

And people often ask, how I could go so many trips considering the financial burden. Alot of them actually don't realize their monthly expenses is enough to go to places like America or Europe. How u scrimp and save is how far u will travel. Alot of people will be shocked if I tell them my lifestyle. Because I scrimp and save so badly, my friends misunderstood me as unsporting, unwilling to go out. Because I save like hell each month, I eat the sucky food from cookhouse everyday. Can anyone go out daily and just spend 70 cents on newspaper? Do anyone knows I don't even bring my wallet when I go to camp every morning? Perhaps $2 is the most I would bring on odd days. I'm not stingy, I just restrict myself from unnecessary spendings. Savings is important to a person whose sex reads: Male.

It's not easy, but if u want something, it's not beyond your dreams as many tend to think, it's just about whether u are willing to scarifice some things and go that extra mile to reach your dreams. Because I save and scrimp so badly, I do not have much of a social life. People often think I date different girls everyday and spend my nights getting wild at some clubs but that's not the case. An average week in my life could be that I get to bed by 11pm every night on weekdays, spending Saturday in the gym or at home watching soccer and Sunday out on the soccer field. I'm not like what people think but I don't give a damn to what people think either.

December will be harder as I have to settle my course beforehand, there will be more expenses. But again it will not deter me, I just want to get out of this country and have the most wonderful month of my life in a foreign land before i commence on a new chapter in my life when I get back.
