The Broken World

Being a teenager i have faced all sorts of challenges. Whether it's about peer pressure or whatever, i think the younger generation is gradually tearing apart. It's just seems to me that when a person does something, there's always a mask that is covering. Why are people comparing themselves to other people? Why must they feel so superior to other people? Can't we just hold hands and love each other? All they care is about themselves. Bunch of fakes these days. The world is totally unfair, even jerks get to win sometimes. It's making people think that they should be bad when others are. We should be taking our masks off and be who we truly are. Plus social media is just driving teenagers crazy, it's actually worse off. Now almost everyone communicate with their friends via online. My mum used to tell me how awesome a pen pal friendship could be, that she would wait in excitement for the reply letter. And she would send cards to her neighbors, playing all kinds of old outdoor games. I guess that won't happen in our world anymore. The world has broken into pieces. We should play our role to put those pieces together...and keeping our heads up! 

Chap Goh Meh In Malacca

The Stadthuys ( The Red Building )

I can't remember exactly how long I've never traveled to Malacca. Probably about 4-5 years? I don't know what's happening to my family but it seems like we are having hardcore local trips this year. This time, I met up with relatives who live just 45 minutes away from Malacca. They've been here tonnes, so they offered us a tour around the city. It was a simple trip, just 2 days 1 night, however it was quite a memorable one. I think it's family bonding that really matters right? To me this trip was more of a foodie trip because we spent most of our time eating in jonkers street. To my surprise, there were many foreigners, more than you could imagine. Way more compared to Japan, I guess this is just the sort of places they like right? Very hectic, very large crowd, and i was barely moving cause there were too many people around, especially in those areas where lion dances and wushu performances were performed. Was even told that one of the performers represented Malaysia in the 2008 Beijing Olympics. All those stuff really brought back the feel of chinese new year. Malacca is one of our historic states i love and treasure. It's great to see how Malacca has developed right now. With new buildings coming up, tourist attractions, hospitals and schools being upgraded. Thank goodness our GPS led us the right way! By the way, I still insists that Japan has the best hot spring ever :3
