I just realize how fun it is to walk in the city randomly with no target directions. The fun in this context is very subtle according to the game me and my friends play during the random walk.
Its just a simple opposite game. Noticed that everyone tend to walk forward in one lane and to the opposite directions on the other. A simple example can be seen in shopping malls, two lanes divided by small shop stalls. Each one for their respective poles.
So, we just switch lane and just walk forward to the people who walk towards us. In other words, breaking the rules. I know it is systematically wrong but the traditional way is utterly boring.
I guess that’s what people called a routine and people religiously following it everyday. It blocks away creativity and results in endless whining of how routine/dull/mundane their day to day life was.
And to share further, I managed to apply this to my recent hike at Bukit Tabur, just beside the Klang Gate Dam.
Despite the heavy rain, we hiked and climbed the hill being the only team to continue to hike up the hill. It was worth it. We experienced the mist, the chill, the wind, and the blurred photos caused by the water vapor in the lens filter.
Sunny and dry? Where’s the fun in that?
