If you want a Transformer like tablet with a killer Intel Core i5 CPU this is the one to get: Samsung ATIV Smart PC PRO, known as Series 7 slate tablet. It’s got a docking keyboard, a full HD screen, 4 GB RAM and up to a 256 GB SSD. Battery runtime is estimated at 8 hours, which is great, if real life performance matches the estimates. There’s the S-Pen to help with taking notes and sketching your next business idea, so Samsung is really committed to this stylus thing, and Windows 8 is surely going to help much here.
I got divorced a few months ago and just had a week long hoiliday in Fiji to take some time out and think about what I want my future to be. I’m 31. The week in Fiji is the only time in my life I have felt free to just be me – no reponsibilites, no committments, no-one to look after. And I really loved it. I know this is not the real world, but it made me realise that this time in my life is the best chance I’ve got. I’m single, have no children, only have a part-time job and have money in the bank from the divorce. So I’m planning on quitting my job, storing my furniture and go travelling for a few months – just leave the real world behind for a while and come back to a clean slate, a new home, new job and new direction. I feel this is something I really need to do, but am getting little support from family & friends. Why do people feel that I’m crazy for wanting to do this? Surely you only get one chance at this life-shouldn’t you make the most of your opportunites?

All life has a balance. As long as you understand that life will continue to move on while you are removed from it and are willing to accept the consequences, then do what you want. This is the only opportunity you will have to do this, believe me, it won’t come up again. You are not crazy, however, you need to accept that you are running away. I’d still do it, but do it with honesty about your real agenda.
Starting life again? Yes do it! But doing it with a clean slate, I doubt!
Somehow the decision you are to take is affected by your experiences, the most recent one is this divorce. The experiences you have would always affect you in one way or another. You cannot hide what your mind have stored.
Having a clean slate is simply erasing all your experiences from your memory. It is impossible to do!
You go girl…. go while you can !! I think it’s an awesome idea… Good for you and have an lovely time traveling!!
They probably think your crazy for a few resons : Its not common to do this , they prob think your having sum breakdown or daft reaction to your divorce and think your not thinking clearly
You however have started to see outside the box -where you “free to just be me – no reponsibilites, no committments, no-one to look after” -its not that you want to leave the box permantly but you know theres a world out there and the box is always there to come back to.
Doing all the clean slate stuff sounds like its guna make you really happy -so just go for it because you really wont get another chance -but just explain to your family and friends that you feel youve gota do this and seize the moment and that it isnt sum early midlife crisis and that your seeing more clarity than ever before
Well, you should start off clean and find a new man that you know will care for you and look after you (and maybe even take his vows more seriously than the other guy).
The other guy broke the *Never to part* vow. Find a new guy that won’t break that vow (or any of the others)
now that you are in your 30′s you will soon realize what others think about your life decisions matter little to none…if its what you want and you can afford to disappear to regroup..i only wish i was a close enough buddy to tag along…HAVE FUN!!!!!
DO IT. JUST DO IT! If you don’t, you will look back in years to come and regret that you didn’t do it. Ideally, people usually get all the travelling stuff out of their system in their 20′s, but who is to day there should be any age limit? You’re divorced, you’re free now to do what you could’ve done, only you were married so it wasn’t really convenient or even possible then. Do it now before you get into another relationship, although that mightn’t be for another while yet.
Hi
Do what you want to do for you. Too bad for everyone else’s thoughts. Just make sure you plan everything properly and invest quite a bit of your money so it works for you while you are gathering yourself again for the next stage/s of your life.

Yes, you are at a very emotional time right now and I think your friends and family are just worried about you. I suggest you take a little more time to think things over. The recent divorce and just returning from a wonderful vacation gets your mind racing in circles. I’m not against your plans to travel and start over, I’m just saying think it over for a couple more weeks first. Quitting a job and spending a lot of money is a big decision and ultimately you need to do what you want to do. Just think it through first. Good luck!
Good for you – if you do what you want,when you want you will have no regrets later in life and have loads of fun along the way. Good luck
If it floats your boat,,do it.
Are you sure there will be anything here for you when you get back?
what if u cant get another job?!
Do it. No questions asked. i couldn’t when I got divorced because I own a business and have kids but if I could have I would have been gone so fast I’d have just been a satan shaped blur.
Take a year and find yourself again.
I think that is an awesome idea. Go out and enjoy yourself. Do what you have to do to make yourself happy. And when you are ready to come back, then do it. Many people out there would kill to be able to have that kind of opportunity. I say go for it and have the best time. You can find yourself, and what you want out of life while having memory making experiances. And if your family and friends don’t support you, then they are stupid. It is probably just very suddent for them. But who cares. At the end of the day are they going to love you any less for trying to make yourself happy? Most likely not. So get going hun! Have a wonderful trip and best of luck to you.
It’s your life…I say, “Go for it”.
I don’t think you’re crazy at all! Good for you for pampering yourself a bit and looking out for YOU. I wish you all the luck in the world sweetie
