I can't see my bed. And there's no space on my floor for me to step on. My clothes are everywhere and so are my gadgets and personal things and magazines plus food. Three hours left and I have yet to find my belt.
I was told to not bring much and to just get new stuff there.But I just can't decide which one to leave. Mela was right when she asked, "How do you pack your life in one luggage?"
I stare at some 200 photos on my screen. I was supposed to blog about them before I go but instead I'm writing this piece after reading Ken Rockwell's advise -- to save only the best photos and to throw the rest away. I stare again and except for one all I see is crap. Still I don't see myself pressing the delete button. More than the effort it's the experience behind each photo that stops me from doing that.
Pretty much like life. So many memories, so many experiences and so many dreams to conquer sometimes its just difficult to sort out which things are more important or relevant.
"The first thing you need to do is find some obligations to offload or relationships to free yourself of, for if your life is too crowded in 2009, you will have no space to fit in all that's new."
That's what my horoscope said as I enter January. And since then I've been busy sorting things out. Horoscopes may not be dependable but hey, they make sense sometimes. They are forward- looking (see 2009? Even a fortune teller told me about 2009.) which is what everyone should be. Not bad to look back but to dwell is just too much.
"..you will have no space to fit in all that's new."
I gotta empty more space on my luggage, gotta delete more photos from my hard drive, I gotta throw whatever's in my glass of water. I need to refill it with something cooler and fresher.
I was given another year to live and as I always do every year, I vow to do more and be more.
-oOo-I know, still got few more days before the 10th but I won't ba able to blog for the whole week. This is very unlike last year when I had a series of blogs to celebrate. Got busy and so here, I'm cramming to at least write something to commemorate the day.
I even had no time to blog about the last trip. So I'll just post photos as a preview. Full blog and album to follow. Again, these are crap but these are the best among the bunch. Too bad, I didn't have a good shot of the highlight of the trip -- our destination, which based from these photos you must know by now. If not then you'll just have to keep guessing until I get back for my next blog.
