From Sweden
Hiho!
I'm now in Sweden for a course. 2 whole weeks!!!
I guess many of you might think, WOW! Glenn gets to travel!!!
And honestly, i really thank God for this blessing, but on the other hand, i really am torn. I miss home teribly. At the moment, i'm kinda living like a field mouse. The cheapest decent meal (read: Macdonald's ) will set me back S$12, and thats just for a small meal. Unless i live on fruits and hotdogs for the rest of the 2 weeks, i dunno, i'm kinda feeling pretty bummed out by it.
On the other hand, it does help me save money and lose weight. Hmmm...
Oh, since i'm on the topic of losing weight, i just finished a jog just now. Up hill and down hill. I feel pretty good about myself. The jogging sessions with my collegues have toughened me up and now i can jog much better now. I'm still as slow as a snail, or perhaps a snail may be faster, but i digress. The point is, that i'm fitter now and hopefully, losing weight.
Downside is this: The temp here is 4 degrees!!! Argh. I certainly didn't bring the attire for running in such temp. And the air is so cold and dry, that when i breathe, my airways hurt and now i'm getting a terrible dry cough and abit of asthma symtoms. (don't tell my mom, she'll freak out)
Even so, i think i'll try again tmr, maybe my body will get accustomed to it? Just that this time i gotta bring my asthma inhaler. Just in case. * dry cough*
Everything here in Sweden is slow, and the ppl are really friendly and did i mention that a good 70% of the ladies here are DROP DEAD GEORGOUS??? My goodness, i feel like i'm on a hollywood set whenever i walk around here. But nah, although they do catch my eye, my heart really misses the Wife.
And thats the crux of the post.
I miss the Wife. Sheesh. Sounds sappy, i know, but really, this place would really be so much better with her by my side. She really is my soulmate, and its uncanny that i miss her this much. To be honest, Sweden is kinda wasted on me. I would never appreciate this beautiful country as much as she will, and i really wish that she was here.
On a good note, i'm learning and appreciating my job alot more now and at least the internet here is getting less wonky. Hope it stays this way.
More pics when i post again, assuming that i actually have the bandwidth here to do it.
Baobei, i miss you and just want you to know that i love you very much. x
As for the rest, please do bear with the mushiness. It comes because of a 20,000 mile seperation.
Cheers!
Oh, pls pray for my cough and asthma, feels terrible. Thanks! *dry cough*
