Ive got the whole of today to decide if I want to go to Dubai with my family at the end of this year, they are going so its just up to me if I want to join them.

Usually, I would jump onto the bandwagon as fast as I can, i mean, family trips are always so fun and relaxing especially since being the youngest, I really dont have to think/do much and just have fun all the time.

But this time its different. Im not sure if I would crave the entertainment then, after weeks of already-highly-entertaining school and hall life - i might actually crave time alone, just lazing at home and having a good time to myself. Moreover, we'll be going from the 17th right up to the 2nd week of Jan, I'll be missing out on Christmas and New Year - oh the horrors of missing out on gatherings with the girls and time to part-tor (lol) esp during the festive season. Missing out on school with parental consent seems extremely enticing though...

But, i think, I'd want to be home this year-end. And so, i think ill only go up for the few days after Christmas and come bk right before New Year (ill need to take the plane alone though oh no). Although im still in Singapore for studies, and still shuffling in btw hall and home on weekends, there's something different. Something different which makes my weekends so out-of-bounds to any more school activites and how ill only devote it to God and my family and loved ones.

Things change and people's priorities too - But the things which mattered and were and always will be important, will always stay on top. Well, at least for me.
I hope you understand.
