sliding doors

past two weeks flew past in a flash, and suddenly i'm back in not-so-sunny singapore, where the roads are peaceful, you do not constantly get reminded that your sense of smell is intact, and the air doesn't seem to adopt a Desert Storm texture.

to be succint, it was a great experience, more so because i saw more negative facets of myself, and that despite those the overall results (specious word to use here since there is no new library/toilet/water harvesting tank at the end of the expedition) were so heartening. top-notch.

i am excited, i am happy, i am intensely grateful.
