I just don't feel like living anymore. When is life going to end? :( It seems that everyone has something to look forward to and the thing I look forward to is death. My 'The End'.
Who am I kidding? No one cares about me, so why should I continue being here?
I just want to go off and live all alone since no one cares. It's better that way too.

Priorities
After that horrible trip, it made me realize how blessed I am to come from a strict family background - I guess you really do learn a lot. When you do travel with someone, my opinion now is that you should have to make sure that their priorities match yours and not only their personalities or budget.
Priority #1
Make sure that your travel companions are safe at all times which includes making sure that they do not get lost.
This world is a dangerous place and if you're a single person (especially if you're a girl) walking around aimlessly, won't you think that chances of you getting kidnap would be higher than being in a group? So, the conclusion is: please watch out for each other.
Priority #2
Being on time/ early.
If you're taking public transports especially, being on time really sets you back waiting time which you could use for sight-seeing etc. And it also saves waiting time for other trains (assuming that the route you're taking involves changing trains several times).
If you're planning to go to the Fujiko F. Fujio museum (a.k.a. Doraemon museum) which is in Kawasaki city, please note that if you buy a ticket allowing you to enter at 10AM, the latest you would have to be there is 10.30AM or not you're not allowed to enter.
Sometimes it helps to be early too as it gives you time to get lost and you wouldn't panic that much I guess? For DisneySea, I read somewhere that people started queuing up very early (i.e. about 1-2 hours before opening time). So, we decided to go early too and arrived at 8.15AM (opening time was 9AM) and the place was packed!!!! You couldn't even see the front gates!
Priority #3
Please take care of yourself.
If you're travelling and your feet hurts from too much walking, do something about it. Don't blame others for you having to walk so much- part of travelling is walking around a lot, unless of course if you're freaking rich and take a car everywhere you go. But I guess, even then, you would have to walk to the car right? So see, walking is a big part of travelling.
Okay, back to the main point, if your feet/leg hurts, go get a foot reflexology, massage it yourself, soak it (preferably in the hot springs or in a hot tub), use Salonpas, etc. And also, please make sure to get enough rest.
Priority #4
Be polite/courteous.
My parents always thought me that we have to be polite, courteous and respectful to others, so when my travel companion wasn't like that, I was cringing the entire time. It's not that she's rude, maybe I'm a bit of a perfectionist, I guess?
Priority #5
Be more open. You're in a different country so there's bound to be some cultural differences, just accept it.
I guess one of the beauty of traveling is to enjoy these cultural differences. It's the thing that makes that country uniquely different from yours. Don't just go around complaining. It just spoils the whole trip- for you and also your travelling companion(s).
I guess that's all I have to rant for now. Hopefully I can put all these bad experiences behind me as soon as possible.
