Today was a very sad day for me, possibly the most disappointing day ever since my accident. I can’t even begin to express how disappointed I am after what I learned today. It was one of the few dreams that I had from before the accident that I was going to materialize post-accident. That’s a feat, but I was equally excited about going to Singapore and possibly enjoying myself for a change.
Well, I bought the TI tickets today morning. I woke up at 7.15, the tickets went on sale at 7.30. I logged on to my computer at 7.29 and I was 503 in the queue. I thought this sound good, are people just not online or what?
But anyways, I got the tickets and was supremely happy about it. So many others who had queued for hours as well did not get the tickets and I felt so fortunate.
What did I do next?
Obviously, now that I had secured the TI tickets, I could think about hotels, plan the itinerary and much more. I was also thinking about vlogging, mostly as a handicap and seeing how far it takes me. Well… that’s unfortunate, cause in the evening I realized that I would not be able to go and it was because I had the Sputnik Vaccine. Of course the Sputnik Vaccine was taken in 2021, much before Russia became the bad guys. And their verification process was basically politicized and pushed back. All of a sudden, we’re seeing the Sputnik Vaccine being a huge impediment towards international travel.
I am very disappointed. I really wanted to go. It was less about visiting Singapore, more about resuming travel. I wanted to travel, I want to travel. I want to visit new places. My travels won’t be the same anymore. I won’t be living in homestays and eating home-cooked food. It will be much more luxurious, because of my handicap, but that is ok.
I still have the rest of the year. I can still plan some things. But what IdK. I was confident in going to Singapore as a handicap-friendly city-state. I’ve been to a lot of places in India and without adequate support it can be a bit difficult to get around.
I hope I can find some better purpose in my life right now. Esports doesn’t seem it and I feel neglected at the comp
