This colour

Returned back to Singapore from Chiang Mai, Thailand yesterday. Kaenoi is a lovely place. Cute children. Nice locals. Delicious Food. Senile roosters who could not tell the time properly. Hens with chicks. Beautiful scenery. Cloud shrouded hills. Morning mist. Bamboos. Red soil. Battalions of flying insects. Flowers. Pine trees. No internet. No phone reception. No traffic jams. Cool mornings and evenings. Rice paddies. Cows. Cow dungs. Dung beetles. Water buffaloes. Muddy roads.
I had a wonderful time myself. Get to know the youths through the games and the programs we had planned prior going for the trip. God was working with us the entire time. It was the first time i was involved in 2 skits concurrently. I am very thankful that i did not stumble or forget my lines for either one. God's grace was clearly evident.
Back to job hunting. Taking it slow and easy. Sometimes i feel a sense of uncertainty ahead of me. I'm in the midst of a transitional phase in my life right now. That's probably the time when i want to get some emotional support from friends. I appreciate all the concerns from people who care for me. I have already learnt not to expect anything much from people. That is always an irony which i have to struggle with sometimes. Love is all about giving. Learning is a long journey. It is so painful at times.
My sister bought for me a jap toy which is unique to my birth date. That is really sweet of her.
M1 is offering a free service which tells you the location and even the building that is proximate to you. What is so amazing about this service is that it can even be used when you are overseas. My phone actually tells me the name of the shopping centre i was in in Thailand.
Never fear cos God is with us. Amen.

Hey Benson!

Man, about time ya got back! Sounds like you had an awesome time though. Would love to do something like that locally just to show kids there are some good people still left in the world lol.

I'd love to go to Japan just to see what they have in their stores. Would blow my mind!

Job-hunting is the worst bro. What's bad is everyone around you seems to know what you should want to do! I was like "I will handle it, thanks!" Don't stress over it and find something that rewards you at the end of the day.
