This is post is dedicated to you.
Remember I wanted to list out what I would do I'm living my last 24 hours on Earth? Here's what I would do.
Let's say I can choose what time my 24 hours start.. I'd choose 6 a.m. Why? Read on.
6am to 6.15am - Rise and Shine.
6.15am to 6.30am - Breakfast of half-boiled eggs + Hot milo. =)
6.30am - Leave house to meet Deb dear to relive our memories of our past.
7am - Reach our destination and walk down memory lane, one last time.
8am - Have a wholesome breakfast.
9am - Call up everyone (EVERYONE) I know and ask them to meet up for lunch in the afternoon. Letting them know I'll "leave" in less than 24 hours. Possibly the last meal I'll have with them.
10am to 12 pm - Take a cab to all the places I've been to and have a good look at it.
12pm to 2pm - Lunch with all the people whom I know and who made the effort and arrangements to come.
2pm to 3pm - Go back home and gather my whole family. Mum, Dad, Brother, Uncle's family, these are the most important people to me on Earth as I wouldn't have grown up the way I did without them. Asking them to bring ALL photos so that we could have fun and laughter talking about our lives, as well as mine.
3pm to 4pm - Sit down and enjoy this time together with them. I wouldn't want them to feel heartbroken when the time for me to leave arrives.
4pm to 5pm - Pack all my belongings, with the help of my family, and sort it out. To give it away or to dispose, it'll be up to them. Cos my mum always complains I have too much clothings and all. So, we'll see about that. =)
5pm to 6pm - Touch up anything that needs to be done, making sure I didn't miss out anything.
6pm to 9pm - My family and I to go for dinner. I'll invite anyone who didn't make it for the lunch session for this dinner. Hopefully they'll be able to make it this time. Not forgetting Debbie's family, including Fluffy and Bubble, to have a feast.
9pm to 11pm - Once again, enjoy the best company of people God has blessed me with and I could ever wish for.
11pm to 11.30pm - Have our last photos taken, I guess. I want them to remember me.
11.30pm to 12am - Say our goodbyes, of course.
12am to 2am - Blog my last entry of my day with everyone. Double check and make sure I have included everyone.
2am to 3am - Have a midnight supper of Roti Prata at Tanjong Pagar. Prata Boom is da bomb!
3am to 4am - Head back home to lie on bed.
4am to 5am - Pop THE question to my Beloved.
5am to 5.45am - Sweetly enjoy the last hour. Lying on my bed when it's 5.45am.
5.45am to 6am - Normally, it takes 15mins for me to fall asleep after such a long day. So yea, my last 15mins.. So when I wake up, I'll be standing on clouds.
Note that all of the above doesn't carry any politically right element.
Note that all of the above Debbie is with me.
Note that all of the above, I have written down what I feel like doing most.
Note that all of the above is what I'll really do, I cross my heart on it.
I guess how we spend the last 24 hours is not the point. It's the desperation of trying to do everything knowing your time is running out. My guess would be that Bro Darren was trying to let us realise we can do things in our daily lives with such similar urgency and desperation too. By treating it as our last day, it would certainly bring different results.
You'll be fighting for each and every second. Realising that you want to accomplish what you planned for the day even though you maybe totally drained out and tired.
And my personal thoughts on this "homework"? As this "live like it's your last" message is existent for so long, it's come to a point where we hear and forget about it in the next few days or even hours. It's hard for us to "re-program" our thought process. But given time, we should learn how to make full use of each day in our lives.
