what wears me out the most is not the long, grueling hours of standing. it is not the sight of despair, decay, and death lying in the corridors of the hospital wings. it is not the heatwaves and freak thunderstorms of a tropical country that leaves me hot and bothered, or dripping with frustration. it is not even the borderline psychotic tutors that Monash loves to unload on us at times.
nay, what depletes me, physically, mentally and spiritually; is the disappointment i feel in myself every day.
the bucket list
Stand on the salt flats of Salar de Uyuni, Bolivia, watching the sunset.
Hike across the Great Wall of China.
Watch the northern lights and wonder about the other worlds out there.
Conquer the summit of Kinabalu - the highest peak in my beloved nation - to try to catch a glimpse of heaven.

I really wish you could see yourself through my eyes.
You'll kick yourself for ever penning/typing that post in the first place.
