Read through some posts that I wrote during exchange when I travelled away from shanghai for 9 days and awwwwwww Super glad I made the effort to note down what happened cause I totally forgot abt them (esp small details that were rlly funny) Totally smiled at myself reading what ridiculous wei and her friends did in the past as though it wasn’t me at all hahahah  Super sweet memories and encounters w everyone!! 💕

那天同事谈起她面试时被问到的问题 「 人生中做过最疯狂的事」 而我发现 我想不出真的很疯狂很疯狂的事 或许我比较不爱冒险 不肯做那些没有保障的事 但感觉好像白费了可以放肆无忧虑的少年时光 现在想一想 其实还有一件值得骄傲一点点的事 而那得感谢21岁的我曾断掉理智线 独自一人跑到几个别人视为危险的地区 傻乎乎却又那么坚持和冲动 当然我会那么做也是因为我不觉得这件事很危险（话说我在火车上居然睡死 —而知道我连夜搭车的父母在新加坡担心得睡不了觉） 除了没有语言障碍 不同地方也有接待我的（新）朋友 最主要也是因为我觉得应该没多少人会没事就拐带我那么大个的人（ok这句话听起来真的是初生牛犊不怕虎） 但跳脱舒适圈 我才有了我引以为傲的经验 但下一次那么无畏的自己又会在什么时候跳出来呢 我期待着 （不得不说 也很感恩我现在还好好活着 没被拐带走呵呵）
