Travel 101

Travelling is the most exciting event that could ever happen in my life.
It gives me a sense of accomplishment, freedom, bliss and love :)

I always have this cold feet whenever I fly. I know I will leave behind all familiar places, faces and routines. Inshort, I will be leaving my comfort zone for just a thrill of adventure.
It's like an opportunity to recover the moments you took for granted, being busy with work and other things.
it's like finding the most amazing thing in a simplest form.
It feels like one day you dreamed about it and now you're living it to the most spectacular way.
Above all, it's the presence you make that what dreams become reality. Observe and become a part of it. It's when you have a company that you begin to know more about the person, the religion you've never experienced before, the food you just tried and the places that are clueless has now been unfolded. It's the excitement of what lies before you is a surprise :)

For me the most wonderful thing in travelling is holding a map, because when I travel I get lost and I wander but since I have my map I could always find my way back.. And for the moments in between, I enjoy it with a special friend so that even getting lost is very much fun (which sometimes I prefer we could never be found)...

Nostalgic as it appears, even after you've come to your destination, the long road traveled will always be in the vivid memory where it lingers for the rest of our lives. And that makes us complete...

Sir Steve Jobs & The Apple




This is the letter I sent to http://www.apple.com/stevejobs/ site... It was soo fast I can't imagine Apple without him... Sad...

I never met him nor did I ever heard his voice. I have read articles and loved his quotations, that’s when he’s become my inspiration in life.
I remember when I was down at work, I saw his quote, it says there:

“Here’s to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes… the ones who see things differently — they’re not fond of rules… You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them, but the only thing you can’t do is ignore them because they change things… they push the human race forward, and while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius, because the ones who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world, are the ones who do.” - Steve Jobs


(you can hear it on: http://www.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2F9to5mac.com%2F2011%2F10%2F05%2Fsteve-jobs-narrates-the-first-think-different-commercial-heres-to-the-crazy-ones%2F&h=8AQDCDcHr)

That day I was enlightened. I am never a failure after all even being different from all the co-workers. I decided to move to a new company, and for only almost a year I have been given so much opportunities at work, travel, skills, trainings, needs and wants… You know if there is one thing that will push me go beyond limit, those are his words written above... Salute sir, I will miss the Steve Jobs I never thought could be the person I came across with, influencing my life that big of a deal without even meeting in person.

Thank you  and Goodbye.. Rest in Peace Steve Jobs.


Sure I will buy an iPad when I get to HK this Oct 22..
