Road Trip.

Took the car and drove. And drove. And drove. And drove. Without a destination. Without a purpose. A literal getaway. I needed one. Malaysian highway; palm oil trees, rubber trees, forests, etceteras, all way long. It was bland but it helped cleared the mind. A psuedo-hypnotic therapy. Volume of the radio constantly changed if the songs were apt.

Didn't stop, didn't rest, didn't slow down.

A sexy voice belonging to a women snapped me out of my weird but calm, zen-like state. "Warning. Insufficient fuel. Please proceed to the nearest gas station." She repeated herself 3 times before I pushed the 'OK' button.

The screen of the GPS indicates I was somewhere in a place called Skudai. To be honest I don't know where that is until I googled it. "I'm in Johor?"

Tank and stomach refilled. Next stop: A beach. Yes a, anywhere would do. Entered the euphoric state once more. But not a full one. Needed to keep an eye on the signboard.

Port Dickson. *Sigh* It'll do. The sunset was great though. Enjoy- well at least tried to enjoy every second.

Realized I didn't miss anyone. Good thing? Absolutely.

All and all, it was superb. Extemporaneous. I should do it more often. Everyone should.

I'm done.
Afan.
