It's ourselves whom we conquer.

What's up? I just did a lil' bit on math. The prelims are just 9 days away and I don't feel like I've started revision when I did quite a lot already. I can still remember quite a lot from the various topics taught last year. But still, I can't be complacent. I gotta work hard towards my dream and that is to roam the world with the person I love. I'm gonna have to be super loaded with cash, knowledge and be street smart. 

But sometimes, I wonder if I would ever have the guts to leave for another country without my parents. Other than overseas camps, I haven't been far away from their sight. To me, they are not just parents but my best friends whom I can fully rely on. I love it that they're are always so understanding and they hardly ever raise their voices unless they hit the roof to the max. Anyway, I have to start to learn to be self-reliant. I'll leave with the first few words by Edmund Hilary when he reached on top of Mount Everest. 

He said, "It's not the mountains we conquer, but ourselves."
