Last month was a long holiday for me, where I took 3 days off and it leads to a week off (including holidays). My parents should follow me to GH but mom still recovering from leg infection (admitted in the hospital) so no choice, I have to drove alone all the way there (first time). Mainly because we booked many rooms already and also promised our aunt & uncle from England a short vacation there. So, solo vacation let's goooo~!
Genting was relaxing, not really fun. First I accompany my aunt and uncle, with my bro and his wife, for 2 days. On the third day they went back down to KL, leaving me alone... staying at the luxurious Highland Hotel. Oh Yesssssss! I can do whatever I want, whenever I want, for 3 days (until Daniel comes). It's the best feeling ever (freeeeedom). Shop alone (bought me a Nike Air shoe), ate alone (ate Harry Ramsden fish and chip, delicious but expensive), gamble a bit (win then lose back) and etc. It was really nice to be away from the freaking hectic work life... and free from responsibilities for a little while. Luckily my aunt went to Pg to help take care of my parents, so I can enjoy in peace.
Thursday Daniel came up alone, live in my room (lucky it's not 1 bedded). Talk about some of the old memories of life and new. It was nice too haha. His wife was begging for his return to help take care of the kids, so we went back early on Friday afternoon. I drove him to the LRT then went to find Sum, which Daniel told me shifted to KL East Mall's Harvey Norman. His house and working place is even nearer than my PG house and office! Then later went to ate at BRJ with my cousin and bro. Stayed the night at my bro's house. They were really late back home (around 4/5am) so I watched an anime called Frieren. A very nice anime indeed (watched until finish).
Saturday night was the highlight of my trip, to meet my old friends from TARC. I think didn't meet them 3 years liao. As expected, YL didn't join, again. Which really didn't matter as we all chat and have dinner happily for 3-4 hours at Plaza Arkadia. Those joined were Daniel, WingC, Jimmy, SG and CM. On Sunday, after breakfast with my bro and his wife, I drove back alone to Pg.
Summary: I must try to make a solo trip at least once a year. It's good for the body and soul, really, haha. The perks of being solo I guess. Yeah I will feel lonely without a lifetime partner, I will live alone when old with nobody to call my own, I will have to take care of myself when sick, etc... But that's life. Not everyone can be happily married. If can I will choose to attach myself to a girl I love without needing to marry. Why? Because I have seen a lot of marriages that... doesn't go so well. Love without marriage, sounds irresponsible right? No wonder I'm single haha... Just dreaming, don't mind me. Cheers~!
