BIG chunk of wood.

well its been a busy week. as they say time fliys when your having fun. time flys faster when your busy. ive hit my stride in terms of work and have a pretty full shedule.

its been great in terms of building for the future. this week alone we met three khmer men my age who all want to come to church and learn about Jesus. i wish i could take credit for it but Sothy(sotea) and Danet(dan-i) are really good at bringing others in. its been great to be faced with the prospect of some male Khmer in the church. there are barely any men both western and khmer so it would be great to boost the testosterone level.

so in answer to a bunch of emails about the specifics of my future plans. here we go. by the way did you notice how i went off on this self righteous rant about telling someone so its hard to back out of a decision then i didnt say a word about what i had decided? i have a big chunk of wood in my eye.

im planning 2 years in advance at the moment.

1. carpentry apprentership? i think this is a wise decision and ive always wanted to get a trade. plus building stuff is just soo cool.
2. leadership trainning with new frontiers. its a possibility but who knows?

then i have a bunch of stuff i have been delaying which i have decided to get done over these two years...like driving lessons.

i have a more in depth list which im not going to publish on here because it includes other more personal information, but rest assured i will tell someone about that stuff so all the bases are covered.

im probably not going to be able to post abnything on here till next weekend because of the long awaited beach trip this week. feel free to picture me sunning it up on a beach in the gulf of thailand with a decent novel in one hand and a pint of ice cold lager in the other. this is all i want. i hope i wont be dissappointed.

long live the king.

Ben.
