Escape
Reality certainly has its wonderful moments, those uber fanta-bulous days that you wish would never end. Sometimes, it can get ugly and cruel. But for the most part, at least for ordinary unglamorous people like myself, reality is routinary.
Ask me what I did on some random weekday, I'd tell you the exact same thing I did yesterday: woke up, brushed my teeth, took a bath, stood in front of my closet for a good ten to fifteen minutes trying to decide what to wear, got dressed and ready, took the bus to work, checked my emails, had lunch with my colleagues, alternated between actually working and pretending to work, took the bus home, had dinner. Does my yesterday sound a little familiar? Yeah, it's probably how your yesterday went too.
And while there is nothing wrong with having a workaday life, you have to admit that it can get a tiny bit humdrum.
That's why I escape.
Everyday, I make it a point to have a pinch of escapism - read a book, watch a television show, see a movie. And on some days, I go and do my favorite escape - travel.
Don't chuck 'em just yet. They may seem pretty simple, but they've actually made my days interesting. My escape gives me something to look forward to each day (because, really, who looks forward to working?).

So, come. Escape with me.
