I’m sure there are a lot more to list that i missed…
Somehow my subconscious is longing to be a child again. When I was young, I wanted to be a grown up and skip being a kid, now, i realized… that is the most fun and relaxing part of life. No real problems to think about, all you have to do is eat, sleep, play and yes, studying at that time still seems like just a play time. Oh why did i ever become an adult so early? I missed the chance to do goofy stuff when i still have the license to do so… being a child.
I want my baby to experience all these and more. In this gadget generation, it pays to have a taste of all these while still young… so what now? why don’t we live in the province for a year or two and live a simple yet worry free, slow paced and relaxed life? why not? maybe we will… im looking forward to it
