Last week was a hellish week – from Tuesday to Thursday I came back only to collapse in pure exhaustion on my bed. Poor kel was left alone. I swear I found a bit of dust on her when I touched her on Friday. Work is really starting to kill me… and I’m not sure what I’m doing anymore.

As you remember, I had a ton of emails, news & blog feeds that I got over the last weekend. I valiantly tried my best to go thru them all on Monday, but I didn’t get far. On Friday night, I almost fell out of my chair!

The count was:

Emails – 760
Blog feeds – 160
News feeds – too many to even start counting!

Combined with the items I haven’t read from the long weekend – it’s going to take ages for me to catch up on everything.

It’s 3.30 am in the morning… and I just got back not long ago.

For some reason I will never be able to phantom, I turned on Kel and saw that I had -

More than 60 new emails & over a hundred new blog feeds. I’m not even going to mention the stuff I got on my mobile!

One miserable weekend away from my computer and this happens. What in the world are the rest of you doing at your computers when it was a nice long weekend to rest and relax?

I fear opening my work email, so I’ll do that tomorrow when I get into work instead.

So, what were you up to this weekend? I had a interesting one.

Spending the two consecutive Sundays on a pseudo road trip (In reality, my friends wanted to go and eat) to the same area, I’ve realised something really interesting. Living in a concrete jungle really restricts one’s vision and strains the eyes.

Both times, the sky was an amazing blue – such a perfect shade, no one could ask for more. With fluffy white clouds that looked like one could bounce upon them. Yes, extremely cliché, but completely true.

As we drove along, we passed plantation after plantation – the expanse of green was soothing and strangely belittling. I wish I caught a picture of that, but we didn’t stop so I missed that picture perfect opportunity - All is green, till it meets the horizon where it meets a beautiful blue sky.

Someone once said, “as far as the eye can see, the land belong to that family.” After this trip, I beg to differ a little.

“The land belongs to none and to all”

And it’s up to us to take care of it for the future generations. For this period, we are its keepers and when the time comes, new keepers will cast their watchful eye upon it.
