My insatiable desire for travel can only be fulfilled by flying the skies. I'm bugging Calvin to travel again, to the extent it irks myself even. 

The July Taiwan trip was an accomplishment, a family excursion. Not an easy affair as the table turns around with the youngsters spearheading the trip and chairing the activities. There were too much responsibilities and too many considerations in planning something suitable, attainable and satisfying for elders all squeezed into the tiny frame of 5 days. 

Fun, good bonding, and undeniably with bits of frustrations along the way. It was the whole good mix which made the trip memorable. I am happy, and I am glad that we could make it happen, with my parents able and spontaneous. A life event added to my timeline. 

I wish for a trip, more personal, to do what I wanted to, without restraints. I have too much regrets in my misses in my shopping that its eating me up. I could have bought this, that, this when I was there. Sigh. 

Plans to go before the school term seem awfully impossible. Even within this year proves to be 'very tough' for Calvin. Maybe train myself to go alone? Part of me is screaming 'Hell yea!', while its the thoughts of DIY is holding me back- lugging the bags and waiting for transport ALONE. Well, its a good time to learn to be independent.
