3 May 2025 – Election Day
Wed: 20yrs ago today marks the first day of ~2,175miles/3,500km,4+MillionSteps,127days of the AT-Thru-Hike. Day1-Sat30Apr2005: starting with 4.1miles/6.6km, the shortest mileage day as the rest of the hike will be averaging from 10-20+miles daily for the next 126days then. Today 20yrs onwards so far and will still choose with dignity&pride these 2most challenging accomplishments, so far! without any regrets – raising my family&hiking the AT-Thru’Hike.
Thu: up&early out for fresh-produce@MT-market just after the downpours. Forgotten that not only its MayDay but also LabourDay, a public holiday here in SIN and this part of the globe but made no difference at the market – life goes like every day.
Proud of #4 for her 4×400RegionChamps,SC/USA – amazing how tall she is now with vivid memories when she was born/Jun2009 caring for her as Linn was hospitalized for SepticPelvicThrombophlebitis then. Sophie is the easiest&delightful grandchild to care for, happy to just eat&sleep then without any fuss and still happy to eat&sleep now – hahaha!
Fri: not sure what it is but have not been sleeping too well this past week even with today being a Cooling-off-day before tomorrow’s GE2025, MarineParade/Walkover. Glad for not needing to vote despite SIN being listed as one of the least corrupt countries –

Sat: excuse my ignorance but was not even aware that there are so many parties and politics, it seems to me all too long, has been concerned with right or left instead of right or wrong. ElectionDay today from 0800-2000hrs in SIN. Whoever the rest of ~2+million ppl here may be voting and also to whoever voting today in Australia too – Happy Voting!

Voting is how we participate in a civic society – be it for president or municipal election. It is the way we teach our children – in school elections – how to be citizens, and the importance of their voice – Loretta Lynch
