Day 1 - Downers Grove, Il - BMC Training on its way.
Song: first love (piano)

So where were we? Finally left St. Paul and now heading to Illinois. The trip was supposed to be 2 hours but lets see. I happen to talk to this guy who told me he went to the philippines and proposed to a filipina for marriage, and i think they are getting married as we speak. Its not that i pity the guy but still marriage with a filipina may get him more than he bargained for. I do pray for his soul. Anyhow i am using the companies provided item to get his blog into my account later. Probably when i get to the hotel i will. Other than that, i really need to go to the bathroom. I am itching to go and the seatbelt sign is still on! 1 more weeknand jthen i'll be meeting my family soon. Also hopinh that is flight is the flight home but i got one more week to spend here in the US. Lets see what adventure i get myself into when i get to illinois. To be continues...

So here are i am in downers grove. Yup, steve and scott are right, boring as hell. Anyhow, i was expecting good room service but no. I got a hell of the time trying to get my things up to the 7th floor. Finally got to my room. Its small. I feel like denied the truth that they say this is good place. Hell next door is my living room and study in one. But i can't complain. I'm here so make most of it.

Somehow, as i quietly lie down in bed and look outside, i somehow miss my wife. It is hard for me to be away from my family. I miss them each night that i had been away with them and that how i wish they are here with me now. My daughter who always calls me and brightens my day even with the stressing work i do. I am longing at the moment. I need to endure my wife always says. It is a sacrifice i need to do for my family. And i am enduring. I couldn't sleep as i got to thinking what they are doing now. My wife is at work, my daughter playing. My son getting to school. I know, they miss me too. But i miss them more. I'll be home soon that's what i know.

And so is father's day today here yet, i am spending it alone. It breaks my heart that i am alone, here in this hotel room, with the bright sky outside, longing for my family. I know, i'll be home soon. I promise i will come home soon...
