Niagara Falls, NY

For generations, the majestic beauty and humbling power of the Niagara Falls has fostered a sense of awe and wonder. They are the largest waterfalls in North America and the second largest waterfalls in the world after Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe, Africa.



That was my first trip once I'd settled down in the states. This 2 days 1 night trip was organized by our employer which costed me $160 (includes transportation and hotel only). I still remember that was my first 9 hours bus ride, departing from Wildwood. Also, a pain in the ass, literally.


Needless to say, Cave of the winds is a must-go place, of course, if you want a better view of the fall like this:

Good thing if you travelled in group you will get some discount. I remember we took a tour package if I am not mistaken.

The next thing is, The Maid of the Mist tour.

Well, this is also something that you must go for. I will show you some pictures and you will know why.
That shot, priceless.
That man behind me, why do you have to photo bomb? Don't chu know that I'm tourist too~

Well, as for this 4D Adventure, I highly recommend that you should just skip it instead.

Next stop would be the Whirl Pool State Park.

Too much photographs for this posts, I should end this with a photo of Niagara Falls taken at night.

Looking back at the old photographs really makes me wanna travel again.
I had just realized how much I have changed physically and mentally.

Summer 2011, Niagara Falls, USA.

The Complete WORST CASE SCENARIO survival handbook.


Missing the wonderlust life badly.

I need more adventure in my life.
If I made it alive, I will have hell lots of story to tell.

I stumble across this really inspiring video the other day 
featuring the voice of Alan Watts (1915 - 1973), a british philosopher,
talking about
What would you like to do with your life if money was no object?


Better to have a short life that is full of which you like doing then a long life spent in a miserable way - Alan Watts

what do I desire most?
 I'm still looking for an answer.

and I figured, 
I can live without designer handbags,
I can live without love (as in boy and girl fallin' in love kind of shit)
but I can't live without happiness.

That's not a very solid answer,
in the end I realized, it's not that easy.

and you know what?
This is life, my friend.
LIFE.

fuck yeah.

Jin here, 
signing off with love,
xoxo.

What am I doing?

I want to live a life like there's no tomorrow.
It sounded as easy as it seems to be.
The truth is, it isn't.

Keep asking myself the same old question everyday.
What am I doing,
What am I doing,
What am I doing,
What am I doing,
What am I doing,
What am I doing,
What am I doing,

....

I think I am a little bit too greedy,
I wanna do this
I wanna do that,
I ended up doing nothing.
I can't afford to do that anymore.

For this day onwards, I'll promise myself that I will achieve something.
and I will record it down to keep track.
Dear readers, If you hear me, let's do this together.

The clock is ticking,
my time is running out.

Time. My biggest enemy.

Bucket list checked off: Skydiving

Last Summer was beautiful. 
I went to Russia and have a little adventure of my own.



Never in my life, I feel so alive.
But then again, I felt it.
Last Summer was beautiful because of Russia.
