post- MOP

Posted on 07 Jul 2007 at 16:00

I've been back in Singapore for about a week and I'm convinced that I'm suffering from MOP withdrawal.
I play african music a lot.
I developed pictures and mailed it back to them.
I just finished making them a video which I have yet to burn.
And I think about them all the timeee!

It was a very tearful goodbye too which I think might have defeated the whole purpose of the trip because my being there left them more happy and sad.. so I feel quite guilty about that..
other than that it feels good to be home I guess :)
I've been sleeping loads so I think I needed this time to re-cooperate.
This has been by far my FAVORITE June.

I put pictures up on facebook :)

It's so great to hear that you had such a great time. And there's no need to feel guilty about leaving them behind in tears. I am sure that they will remember all the smiles that you gave them, and will forget the tears!

Thank you so much for everything you have done and I would love to receive a copy of the video you have made!

Thanks again
