Base Check

Kai called to report that he's cleared base check; he sounded more relaxed today but audibly tired. It's much easier this time round, mainly because we're both too busy with our own schedules to be thinking too much. Of course there are days when I break down and wonder why there is so much separation in our relationship but the demands of our little fella quickly pull me away from all the self-pity and what-ifs; all the better for it since nothing fruitful comes out of those sessions anyway.

Dot will be joining Clar soon though it must seem like an eternity to be waiting till post-CNY. But from experience, I'll say that just get busy with many activities and time will pass quickly. When that happens, you'll join the ranks of Shar and enjoy taitai life; that's not a bad deal. Pity you'll be far away in South America; we're all over the place these days. The last meetup at Bakerzin is truly precious indeed. We must meet up again for a few more times; Jo has memory of Godpa and Godma and we need to take more photos of you and him to bring with you to Brazil.
