trip to angkor wat

the therapeutic power of going on a trip is beyond imagination... it was only 6 days in cambodia... now i'm back feeling very much refreshed and charged up, both physically and mentally...

i've always wanted to visit the angkor wat... am so glad that i finally did it, after some 4 - 5 years of talking... i was told it's one of the lifetime must-sees... now i agree it's very much worth going and i strongly recommend it, too... i felt very comfortable and hassle-free, and u get something really nice to see, the perfect combo for holiday... people are nice as well... also it is well-catered for english-speaking tourists with new spots building & opening up... i suggest visiting at one's own pace without joining tours...

i stayed there for 6 days with 4 complete days in between... slightly longer than most tourists, still i find it quite contented... it's also my first time to travel with friends other than rabbit... including a friend's friend whom i barely knew her name before setting off... she turned out to be a great travel buddy and i truly enjoyed her companion in those few days... i don't have much to say about the temples, in general they're all grand and beautiful, though some quite heavily damaged... we took hundreds of photos... i've them uploaded and part 2...

hiking

humid, mmm...

went hiking during weekend... long since i did anything of this kind... it reminds me of the days when i did AYP hiking with my buddies and what my friends taught me... that was a short track... we walked for 2 hours... we're all getting old and unfit... o well i've never been fit all my life... except daniel, he was superb... and so nice that he brought us there and took pictures for us... thanks mate, i'd defintely luv to go with you again... though my legs get quite sored these two days... still i was quite happy that i survived it...

EQ

misty

think my IQ is pretty high yet EQ quite low... it didn't seem to happen in the past... the longer i work as a registered doctor the more i'm aware of this problem... many tiny things can upset me... say my patient died.. or someone absolutely irrelevant made a comment about my clinical judgement... or a bad weather forecast in angkor wat... it's not anything overwhelming really, just a bit imperfect and pitiful... on the other hand, i am easily pleased... a nice dessert, a good swing, or the fact that my patient quitted smoking, can all charge me up for hours...

ain't sure whether i've always been like that... was i unaware of it? i noticed it only after entering university... are we actually born with a certain level of EQ, like it's carried in our genes??? perhaps i was over-protected as i grew up hence i'm so uncomfortable with negativities... i don't have a clue... perhaps i'm too demanding... perhaps i'm overthinking... perhaps it's a girlish borderline personality trait... my male friends probably think i complain too much... my explicitness contrasts with rabbit's couldn't-care-less attitude... how interesting...

i'm quite certain i have to improve my EQ in order to survive through my career... it's a satisfying job and i really love it... somehow i'm put off by things that i face... maybe this happens to everyone as we enter adulthood...
