far from the maddening crowd

i suddenly had a wild thought. maybe i should go start training to be a triathlete(correct spelling?) -- since it sounds like a whole load of fun and hard work as well. heh. ok it stays as it is. a wild thought.

this job of mine. it's preventing me from a break i think i truly need. to meet up with people i haven't seen in a long while. and to catch up with life. to be a civilian. but on this job, i get to learn so much as well. so it's a catch-22 situation really.

really feel very indebted to jimmy. for being so chao onst about cell and church stuff. there were so many times i felt so drained taking the kids on and i had to take breaks, but he has been always there, filling in for me when i was not there. calling the guys so often. and taking the lead. and for taking those pictures of the kids that encourages me to keep on going.

i don't think i will go beyond the month of august. i will take a short break from the first day of august till school starts. i hope to go to langkawi or something. i think at this rate, even a night's stay at one of sentosa's hotels will do fine. i just need to get away for a while. far from the maddening crowd.
