Scares

Had a bit of scare today when I came back home and opened my facebook only to find us RECONSIDERING BALI TRIP because of terrorist threats. I think my heart seriously stopped for a moment. Like, I just wanted to cry because I'm really quite depressed about moving out of hall for the holidays. And then now no bali trip?! I was quite devastated for about 10 minutes. But I think we're still going. So, hopefully that's all settled. I mean, I really think this is something we don't have control over... like, I don't stop crossing the road just because there's the chance of getting hit by a car? I know it's not an exact analogy, but I'm just trying to say that sometimes you just have to do certain things, and you might really really regret it if you don't. Agree it's an issue of threat to life. But if I'm too paranoid about something I have no control over, I will stop myself from doing a lot of things in life. I mean, we went to KASHMIR. That place hasn't had peace in YEARS. And we knew full well that even though that was a quiet period, anyday, either India or Pakistan could choose to drop a bomb there. But if we hadn't gone, we might never have gotten another chance, because a few months after we came back, violence started there again. So like I said, sometimes you just have to do certain things. And hope for the best.

Anyway, after all that hullabaloo and a fair few scares, I went to my facebook home page and this is what I saw.

Only ONE thing caught my eye.

OH.EM.GEE. EXCITEZXZXZ. WE'VE BEEN WAITING SO LONG ((:

Whatever happens, I want to go. I've REALLY been looking forward to this. So I'm going to go and just stay alert while we're there, and hope for the best. :)
