On a party at Passion scuba-dive center in Singapore yesterday, a friend whom I just met asked me, “Nila, I think you shouldn’t go to the nicest dive sites when you’re young, because when you grow old, you wouldn’t know where to go diving next”.
I smiled and said, “What if I died tomorrow?”
He said, “If you died, then you wouldn’t have a chance to regret, right?”
I said, “Hmm.. Not sure about that. Why do I have to wait to go to the places I want to? Ten minutes before I died, I might remember all the places I’d love to scuba-dive and would definitely regret it that I haven’t make my way there”.

The next day, I read this amazing words:
life is short
break the rules
forgive quickly
kiss passionately, love truly
laugh constantly
And never stop smiling
no matter how strange life is
Life is not always the party we expected to be…
(my version):
Thus, we should make our life as colorful as we want it to be
… and be grateful for that 🙂
