Journeying together…

1st May | 6:30pm | Kajang Villas

V: “Hey, when is the last time you ride a bicycle?”
R: “The real one? Probably 10 years ago!”
C: “Don’t worry…once learn…you will never forget.”
R: “Yeah, but give me sometime to get used to it.”
C: “Which direction you wanna go? Shall we take the right turn?”
V: “Let’s go together.”
C: “There’s a sloop here, ride slowly!”
R: “Look at the sunset and the refreshing breeze…shall we take a break here?”
V: “Why not.”

I am reminded…some things do required time to get used to it. What really makes the different, which define the success and the failure of the journey, is to have good companion to go along side with you. Having someone to cheer for you when you are down, giving you a gentle reminder when there is danger, and journey together for success.

The best thing is…I am blessed with 2 strong men. ^_~ Sure no bad guy dare to get near me! Hehe…

Persuasion

She is back…and gone again.

I am grateful that she’s back…even we have limited time, but we manage to catch up a little before we go separate way again.

It was 4 years ago, she spend half year in persuading me, who is having serious insomnia to join gym. Then, she spends half day in instructing me how to move house, knowing how obsessive compulsive I am. Even after she leaves the country, it was her …a year ago during a visit, encouraging me to become an instructor, giving me morning call and cheer for me thousand miles away when I go for my clearance. She is more excited than me, when I did my first class. And again, it was her…who encourages me to make up my mind to move on. For that, she spend 1 year.

When we met…sitting side by side at the Old Town Café, with our favorite coffee and pieces of toast, she jokingly says… “My persuasion skill is getting weaker. I actually spend 1 long year to convince you. ” “So, here is another one… go get marry! Please don’t make me spend 2 years to convince you.”

I think, maybe…is just me being too stubborn. However, many decision…once made, I will not look back or regrets, nor lingering in the memoryland. I will move on. So, I would rather take my time to consider, before I decide.

Anyway, some things…I would just do it. So, here’s one good example…

It was back in February, I make a sudden decision to pay her a visit. She gave me a very useful tip to keep me warm through my night in Beijing – taking off my pants during sleep. The method is to enable our body heat to warm the bed and the comforter, enabling the heat to stay in, keeping the body warm.

Felt doubtful? Me too! However, it does work.

Honestly, taking off anything in such cold temperature is like a nightmare, especially at night. Imagine me literally shouting my way out loud…getting my naked feet into the comforter and “embrace” the cold for a nice 10-15 min, making sure the feet is spread out long to enable the body to get the signal and release the heat. Else, if you did it like my 1st or 2nd attempt, by hugging my knees close to body…the bed would never be warm enough. So, when the bed is finally ready, stop moving around. Else, all effort will be waste. Doing it all over again will be another freezing sensational.

I can still remember how I struggle every night lingering around my bed before I have enough courage to take off my pants. Anyway, you don’t need this if you are staying in a high class hotel with “Hot Conditional” blasting straight to your bed.

However, the experience was extra ordinary. If you like to travel…like the way I do… just keep this technique in mind. Usually, your body has all it takes to give you all you need.

Alright, coming back to the topic…

I am seriously thinking…about the last request. 2 years, many can happen. We’ll see…
