Battambang now and then

I wonder why I am still so awake at this hour, it is 2.30 am now and I don't feel sleepy at all.  I suppose there are too many things in my mind. I wish I can put my thoughts on the blog but first I have to sort out my thoughts.

My main worry is of course Gems, we are looking into buying property so that we do not have to rent when the least is up in 2013. Rental for our school is quite cheap right now because we signed a 5 years least with the land lord but I am sure it is not going to be the same when the  least is up. Prices of rental and properties has gone crazy the last two years. I remember Battambang was a sleepy town, not many tourist and we hardly see any foreigners, ( we are the only few foreigners.) but now, we see them everywhere and there are plenty of  NGOs. No doubt it is good for the town, the businesses boomed because of that but also the prices of properties, especially rental.  Everyone knows that the foreigners can pay good money hence a house which has been collecting US$200/- per months has gone up to 400/-

My weight is my next concern, just like the price of the properties in Battambang, my weight is gaining steadily. I know I need to do something about it but too lazy and greedy, what am I going to do? sigh.....

Nowadays the weather is so hot that I refuse to get out of my room in the afternoon. Knowing that there are so many things I have to do and I have not done it but I keep putting them off...... sigh..... again.
