The Hike
Wednesday, May 9, 2012
Was supposed to meet someone at Douby Ghaut today, only to receive an sms canceling the appointment, just as I was at the doorstep. Yup. So, seeing that I've come all the way, going back home would be quite a waste of time. And sooooo, in my enigmatic search for something random to do, I decided to... *drums rolls*...
WALK HOME FROM DHOBY GHAUT.
I'm proud of myself!! :D I finally did some crazy thing for once. It was quite an achievement cause I really walked non-stop throughout (aside from a lunch break).
Started off from Dhoby, wandered til Bugis, and followed the MRT tracks now. Decided to snap each stations from Lavender onwards.

Lavender, 3:32
I just remembered I still need to make my IC... |

Kallang, 3:47
I love this part where I'm super close to the tracks |

I think one simple lesson I took on my long journey pressing on. After going so far, stopping halfway would failing the achievement and wasting my time and energy. Sometimes, just gotta press on for the prize ahead, tough as it may be. Slow and steady, each step brings you closer.

Not-so-average teen, deep thinker, perfectionist with quirky randomness. Trained in the art of sarcasm and nonsensical logic.
Overcoming the circumstances of the present, and the issues of my past,
striving in self-betterment with a moral balance with the hope of the fulfillment of the destiny to be a light for Christ in His likeness,
spreading the love of God as how He first loved us
==============================================================
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Heal my heart and make it clean
Open up my eyes to the things unseen
Show me how to love like You have loved me
Break my heart for what breaks Yours
Everything I am, for Your kingdom's cause
As I walk from earth into eternity

Philosophy:
I like to think about life, especially pursuing on the concept of love. Not that lovey dovey romantic kind, but the affections we have for one another
that ties us together,strangers, friends, besties, family, that's the love I wanna know about. Love is the essence of life that ties us together,
love is what we were made for and to be, love is embracing the gift of the relationship with GOD.
