Thoughts

The hands hold tight in anticipation of any sudden movement. Heartbeat increases, eyes trying to focus and keep the mind calm.

Taken the plane so many times and yet, turbulence is one thing that I will never get used to. The worst ever I have experienced is on a Laos airline plane from Luang Prabang to Chiangmai; texted a friend immediately after that and pondered how she ever get used to that on her job. Given my frequency of flying, I hope I never get to experience those sudden drop of 50ft or 100ft, like that on a recent SQ plane.

Which is also why I wonder when I will ever accumulate enough courage to leap off the platform, aka bungee jump.

Self Reflection

A few things I realised on this trip

- People here don't use signal lights
- Motorbikes drive dangerously here with few regards for their own safety
- I get distracted easily while driving
- Google Map doesn't have navigation function or street view here
- I have little patience for my own parents ( my bad), or people close to me for that matter
- There's really nothing much to do in Penang except eat, eat, and eat

Looking back

Saw some old letters, read things tt was really important to me, and wondered why I didnt have the eyesight to see it then. 

到头来, 当时的我还是不够成熟。现在只能用后悔的眼睛望着过去。

Wedding

First time I attended a wedding with myself in more than 10 photos of the photo slideshow. Me and Seewei got pretty excited by that fact haha.. It was nice catching up with these guys, missed those days of fun and laughter with them. It's been a long 6 years since then, and we were reminding each other we gonna be back there in 4yrs time.

On another note, FINALLY attended a wedding without shark fins. I was getting tired of hearing people give lame excuses like "the sharks are already dead anyway". Yay!

Marathon

Shall not run another marathon unless I can get below 2hrs for half marathon.

Utterly disappointed with my timing.
