Why not planning your travels is best

Don't get lured by seat sales. Avoid them all together. But then change your mind a month after. Be guilty that your travel visa is expiring soon and you won't pay S$150 anew to get another one, which, at most, could only last for a year.

If it seems the travel gods are not on your side, just book seats. Book regardless of the price. Book your tickets after you and your girlfriends get tired of just planning. Be guilty that there's your brokenhearted friend who wanted to escape the world (after you've mentioned that "Escape through travel works" line from The Beach) and you have to help her escape from the shackles of her broken heart. Your visa is expiring soon, so might as well use it again, right?

But be at peace with your choices. Yes, your travel plans tangled with your budget. You have promises to fulfill, places to see, the world to discover. Charge it to experience. Just go out there to see the world, you might surprise yourself. As always.
