Day 100 - 01st October
Well, 100 days since I left home. God, how the time has flown. It seems like yesterday I stepped off that plane in Beijing and thought to myself, 'I'm never going to make this!'
I've been to so many fantastic places - China (Beijing, Xi'an, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Hong Kong), Vietnam (Hanoi, Sapa, Halong Bay, Phong Nha, Huè, Hoi An, Nha Trang, Dalat, Mui Ne and Ho Chi Minh) and now Cambodia (Siem Reap and Phomn Penh). I've seen some quite incredible sights, met some awesome people and you know what the great thing is? The adventure is still going!
It had been a late night on Wednesday, Skyping my brother and then Mum and Dad. Again, everyone is well and it was good to hear my bro as if he was here with me.
Over breakfast I enjoyed eggs and jam and edited my book again. It's almost ready for the volunteers to read for me so I'm pretty excited about that.
I swam forty lengths and then headed to the office for my weekly meetings. Unfortunately DK was sick so we didn't have any meetings so I headed back to Bou Savy to continuing my editing. It is sometimes a lot more difficult than actually thinking about what to put on the page. You have to be alert for any silly mistakes (there are plenty during the drafting stage) and also it is crucial that everything makes sense. Sometimes, I write so fast, I don't re-read until later and by then, I've forgot the rhythm I'm in. A writer's life aye?
I did a little laundry, Dan Millen style (a bar of soap and a sink) and hung it up to dry!
I felt the twinge on my foot again so gave football a miss but the other Big Willy boys showed up to win 9-8. Great stuff chaps!
After a long day of reading, I went to bed ready for a long day ahead on Friday. 8 sessions!
