It's half way through swot vac already. So fast! Everything is on schedule. So I'm really happy about that. Been going to the gym everyday :) Body aching like crazy mad %#*$# !!! But that's good right?? It means my muscles are doing its job!!
Lately, I've been seeing & hearing a lot of life-threatening cases happening in Malaysia. In KL to be exact. In the last 5 days, I've already read about 3 different extremely scary experiences shared by the victims themselves. I am aware that Malaysia is a dangerous place. But I used to think that if I hang out in the right places I will be fine. What scares me is driving around alone. A lot of these cases happen to women driving alone. And not in areas where we hardly hear about. These cases are happening at the obvious places. Places my friends and I go to all the time! What happened at curve terribly frightened me. As I was reading her story, I felt so afraid for her. These things can happen to anyone. Which is why it is so terrifying. I am never going to curve alone ever. Forget about heading to Fitness First early in the morning!
Its really sad how reality is.. Our lives are affected so badly by these things. I mean I don't understand. Why do people have to do these things? Its so cruel. These victims have people who love them. Don't they have any sympathy in their hearts?? Well I guess they're the bad guys for a reason. But even criminals have hearts right? I hope they wake up and see the pain they're causing people. Greed is one of the most dangerous emotion. It is a potential stepping stone too all these problems.
Why they do what they do?? Well I don't know.. There can be many reasons behind a person's action. But there is always a better way of doing things. I feel so strongly for cases like these. Because not too long ago my family experienced the same thing. Not exactly on the streets. But worse. In our own home. And when someone holds a weapon at you. Your heart stops.
I was lucky enough to be in Melbourne at that time. And did not experience it first hand. But having it happen to someone so close to your heart, you can feel their pain too. And with a lot of recent cases shared on FB, I can see how these things are happening to circles closer to us. Our friend's of friend's having to go through that. You might not know that person. But you can feel their fear.. their pain.
So especially to all the ladies out there. Please please please be careful. Never drive alone anymore. I know its ridiculous but with crazy things like these happening ANYWHERE, you can never be too careful. We have to change certain things in our daily routine to ensure our safety comes first.
And to all other Malaysians, help those in need of help. You'll never know, you might be saving their lives.
Lots of love,
xoxo

@Michelle where were you?? I know train stations in certain suburbs can get pretty scary at night. and of course there are certain suburbs that are really dangerous. Like every other country. Take care babe.
@sgrmse there's plenty more. but those are the ones that happened in places I actually go to. There's many more unheard of too. Which is scary cause you'll never know what might happen.
