Hello, Friday Night... I Need This Again
I have nothing to do on this Friday night except to feel a tremendous sense of relief that the weekends are just a couple of hours away. That's how appreciative I get after a busy week.
Here I am - just stepped out of the shower, and I'd like to think all the stress has been washed away.... Kind of reminded me when I was at Lombok island-hopping and snorkelling. I need this again.
Though I've gone through some dirt-cheap travels and enjoyed them tremendously, I've yet to do any real backpacking. Sad isn't it? And though I'm the type who probably like things scheduled and in-placed especially at work, when it comes to traveling I'm a complete antithesis.
Indonesia and S.E.A is such an expanse of land and culture. It's the Nusantara for goodness sake! If I could spend some time in Sumbawa & Komodo and places in Kalimantan, Makassar, maybe or even Bugis, just to experience a tiny bit how my favourite literary sea-characters Marlow and Jim in the novels of Joseph Conrad feel when they were in this strange and exotic region called the Malay archipelago.
I know I'm asking too much, but you only have one life made good.
