Ms Leong's Journal Entry

Sample Journal Entry by me.

Topic: If I could live anywhere in the world, where would I live?

If I could live anywhere in the world, I would love to live somewhere where I can see open skies and green fields and maybe a freshwater lake so clear that on good days I can see white clouds reflected in it. It would be a place that is peaceful, where the neighbours are quiet and I can read my book in peace. The weather will not be too warm, but not too cold either, since I can't take extreme climate conditions. Too warm - and I'll perspire and suffer from heat rash, though if it's too cold, my skin will dry out terribly.

Too often, living in a city, we forget that we only see slivers of the sky since most of it has been blocked by tall buildings. If you have been to the CBD, you'll know what I mean when I say that a person can feel truly dwarfed by the skyscrapers all around and you end up with the sensation of being trapped.

While I wish I can stay in Singapore, which is my first home, and will always have a special place in my heart, I wish to have my cake and eat it too. As such, if I could, I would have a home in a variety of places which differ from that of Singapore's, so that I may benefit from experiencing many different lifestyles.

    If I could live anywhere in the world , I would choose Japan as the first place to go to ! Its the only place that I love more than Singapore !
    The music , movies , culture and cuisine intrigues me alot! The scenery there during Winter is breath-taking as well!

    But of course , Singapore would remain as my home truly . Its still the place where I shared profound memories with my family or friends . Singapore is still where i would feel safe .
