Yesterday night, in front of my laptop, i suddenly had no idea what to do. i refreshed my hotmail a dozen times, but it wasn’t there. i had been waiting for over 48 hours.
i stared at the icons on my desktop, but nothing caught my interest. i clicked the start button and then point to all programs. then my mouse stopped at google earth.
i haven’t really explored it since i installed it. but yesterday night, i finally found a reason to.
i clicked around, moved the earth up and down, left and right. i went to the cities of busan, seoul, daegu, north korea, nagoya, kyoto, hokkaido. i visited temples, mountains, shrines, train stations, volcanoes, colourful flower fields, ports and imperial palace. i saw amazing views, clouds so close you can actually touch them, penguins under water, a snow-covered post office, and the misty sight of a volcano in the distance.
i finally know what Lee, my south korean friend’s hometown, busan, look like.
suddenly the world doesn’t look tat bleak and boring anymore.
in contrast, the world looked so beautiful and so mysterious to me yesterday nite.
i wonder if i will ever be able to see all those pretty sights with my own eyes.
i think i found a new reason to live.
.
i wonder where do people and animals go when they die…
i hope it’s somewhere beautiful.
