A little about life & Krung Thep

Life is such an irony. When I was all comfortable and contended with life about 1 year ago, I really enjoyed playing computer games (Modern Warfare) and hitting the gym, to a point where I find it hard to make time for my loved one & doing the things I love. And now that I have plenty of free time, I don't quite enjoy doing either of the above anymore. You're right, maybe it's me. Yeah, it's probably just me.

Oh, let's talk about my Bangkok trip a little. Was a great trip, had fun bringing my friends around, not that I'm real familiar with BKK, but I've been there 5 times so far, and thrice of those happened this year, so I guess the memories of the place was still fresh. Wish we had more time though... Well, it's always about the company :D 

If y'all plan to go to Talad Rot Fai, or directly translated as Market Train, my advice is to go there at around 7 to 8 pm with an empty (hungry) stomach and venture deep! I had no idea that the place was so huge! Over hundred of street-styled vendors right at the back! Not forgetting all the vintage artifacts which you can take photos with. It's about 20km from Pratunam Night Market or approximately 30 - 40 minutes travel time via taxi, depending on traffic conditions. Definitely a good place to spend the evening.

I found a pretty decent tailor through the recommendation of a friend too. It's called Newman Exclusive, located at Amari Watergate Hotel. Price for formal shirts are competitive, ranging from 750 baht to more premium ones at 3,500 baht. They said that you'll have to order the 3,500 baht ones in advance as they'll have to arrange for the clothes to be shipped from some mystical place. & I said, you mad bro? Ok, I didn't actually said that aloud, just deep within my fragile little heart.

I'm kind of looking forward to the year 2015. Part of it being the bonuses which I'll be receiving (what!? I've been working for 10 months already?!). Another part? Let's just say that I'm always looking forward to the future because it's the unknown that makes life interesting :D 

Geez, I got to stop acting all optimistic... Alright, time to call it a night. Peace!

Falling into the Mundane Life Cycle

After joining the work force for about 10 months, I'm starting to feel it. The rat race effect I'd call it. 5 days work week and the only thing to look forward to is the monthly pay day, followed by the bonuses, pay raises, and the cycle continues... Same shit different day bro.

Geez, I really shouldn't be whining, considering how much I enjoy my working environment, the awesome colleagues and modest benefits which I'm entitled to... Oh well, just going to work hard, grow my pot and harvest the fruits some day in the future. 

In a few days time, I'll be heading to BKK for the third time this year. I must be crazy. Where the hell is my much sought after beach vacation?! Alright, alright, I'll make it happen next year. Anyway, I believe that despite the same location, travelling with a different group of friends will definitely unlock a whole new chest of fun and experiences! 

Time to hit the sack, see y'all soon my friends!
