what i do love about thailand,
is the availability of good food everywhere.
walking to work, random kueh stall by the side and turns out their ka nom (desserts) are delightfully soft, incredibly yum and at such a bargain.
only wonder if they'll be there again tomorrow.

may day : grand palace and wat pho temple.
weekend: ancient city of ayutthaya and fugu concert upon return at central world.
hoping to get some good pictures, hoping the weather holds up, fingers crossed!

[10:34:40 AM] Josue says: more like a frustrating slow dance where we keep stepping on each others toes

My horoscope today reads:
Let your thoughts be known but not at the expense of looking silly.
Be sure you have all the facts before you take a position.
A problem with someone you care about will develop if someone hasn't been honest about what's going on.

it's confirmed, it's CONCRETE!!
YOU'RE COMING TO BANGKOK!!!
EXCITEMENT!!!!!
ok i'm calming down.
and on a side note, i hate it when companies outsource their call centre functions to india.
its so frustrating!
i swear i'm not racist but its just too hard to try to listen to a heavy indian accent. and when you have an accent like that, speaking quickly in acronyms DO NOT help.
oh and those exaggerated sighs when i ask you to repeat, DO NOT help too.
maybe, just for a moment think WHY i'm asking you to repeat yourself so many damn times.

so you're realising that having half a cake is not necessarily better than having no cake at all.

weekend in a wrap.
wonderfully delicious kuehs from alexander. frustrating taxi driver bringing us to those gem galleries 'on the way' - scam artiste. sauna-ing it at chatuchak. lok kok roadside shop in chinatown with the lime soup seabass -YUM. 30 packets of 'dog shit'. escalated shower issue. Rama III seaside pepper crabs with the pretty fairy lights and white verandas. mango sticky rice (LOVE). damnoen saduak - unfortunate about the rain, no post worthy pictures. overrated rose garden but uber cute elephants - that dances!. casio PX120 (!!!!) :)
only 4 days of work to this weekend!!
