Hippy Confucius (*sighs* I don't know la...)

Hari Raya may be the darling of all days for most, but for those still working, it is the mother of all datelines – everything has to come together. I can’t stress how much stress is being stressed on everyone in the team (care to take a hint?), which is why I’ve not been blogging at all.

But tonight’s quick update is merely the calm before the storm, the moment before the climax, the silence in an awkward conversation (maybe not) before I’m engulfed by the tsunami of work before me.

I hope there’s a light at the end of *this* tunnel because I could use some R&R pretty soon. I don’t think I’ve had time enough to step out for fresh air, or a relaxing dip, or a quiet afternoon nap.

I miss the sensation of freedom and am becoming cynical about all things institutional.

This is my moment of …er…‘Confucius’.

This was taken from a bus when we toured Krabi, Thailand. The windows on the bus were slightly tinted and allowed me to do away with filters of any kind. You’d be surprised how looking at trees gives off a strange feeling of tranquility (oh no! I’m turning hippie!)

I hope you're not too busy next weekend for tea.

Anyway, take a break after Raya. Maybe a visit to Cameron; lakehouse is fab I heard.

I'm no tree hugger~. I'd EMPLOY tree huggers, but I can't imagine the TV programmes I'd miss while hugging them trees
