Time Out.

August 13, 2011
6:32pm on a Saturday at home. Taking it easy.

I’m lazing at home on a Saturday. I cancelled my plans and I have nothing to do. For the first time in a long time, I can watch DVDs and do laundry and catch up on back episodes of So You Think You Can Dance. I haven’t had so quiet “Me Time” in a while. It feels nice.

Actually, I’ve been meaning to write… its just that I’ve been busy. LOL. Really! No joke. I’ve barely had time for myself!

For the last few months – probably since I broke up with Aki – I’ve been busy. Intentionally or by twist of fate, my social calendar has been pretty packed. Drinks here, Dinner there, movies, dancing, beach trips, hanging out, concerts, plays, friends, dates, work, brothers, mother, travelling…  I’ve kind of just said yes to everything that’s come my way. Nikki M says I’m just being a “Yes” man, which is never really a bad thing. And it’s been so much fun. But also very tiring. So I’ve said no to drinks and cancelled a dinner, and I’m taking this Saturday off to chill and just relax.

I’m not complaining though, this year has shaped up to be a very eventful one indeed. I’m travelled to Manila, Kuala Lumpur, Bangkok, Shanghai, Manila, Kuala Lumpur and Nepal. Before the year ends, I’m planning to hit up Phuket, Bali, Los Angeles, Kuala Lumpur, Manila, and Hong Kong. Which means that I will have travelled an average of at least once a month! I’ll also have gone to 4 new places this year – Shanghai, Nepal, Phuket and Bali! Crazy!

I’ve also seen a crap load of live shows, plays, and concerts: Orozman and Zafira, Lion King (2x), Aida, Into the Woods, Jamie Lidell, John Legend, Santana, James Blunt… and I’m planning to see Equus and Laskar Pelangi next month!

Gosh I’ve really been blessed these last few months. How the rest of the year plays out is a mystery, but whatever happens, I know I’ve really lived it up. I’ve taken the Life by the horns and lived. Not just walked around aimlessly from home to work to gym to home. I’ve really lived, and I know I’ve touched some people hearts and made the world a slightly better place in my own way. Much Love.
