Surrealism

I can't believe that this is actually my first (and probably, last) entry in May! Well, I have done quite a bit of travelling over the past month. Now I'm in Darwin, which is a very tropical city up in the Northern Territory. Everything is so exotic here. I almost forget that I am STILL in Australia!


Last night we saw some backpackers who were partying till late. Clemens said it's backpacking life and it's not real life. I think I know what he means and that made me ponder upon my life here a little bit.



Sometimes I find it a bit surreal to live in Australia where it seems to be worry-free and pressure-free all the time. Perhaps it's just because I view myself as a traveller and that's why I never need to take it so serious. It's a bit indescribable but I feel a bit like d-r-e-a-m-i-n-g! :p I feel very much isolated from the rest of the world. Everything happening during this period is far too unreal to be understood. Well, maybe it was already an absurd idea to quit a stable job and come here in the first place.

No worries, for sure things will become bloody real again once I get back to Hong Kong...

Very philosophical, Master! How serious should we take our earthly life then which is so...transient? And, Master, please help me, what is reality?...

Sometimes I do wonder if serious life in HK should be what "real" life is about...
