Dear Readers,
I really miss my dear reader entries, and I miss my sign offs.
Anyhoo, I’ve been a bit moody lately – not in the sense of constantly grouchy, more like going through a roller coaster of highs and lows.
I had 2 extremely low days (in a row), took the BTS to meet my parents, and I was in a rush so I was just so agitated and easily irritated. At the end of that day (last Wednesday) I realised that if I am angry I attract really negative things.
For example, I was cursing my schedule, having to go to the BTS kiosk to get change, and I DROP a ten baht coin, which is something ..okay something I usually do, but at that moment it was incredibly upsetting, because it meant that the germy 10 baht coin, dropped on the more germy floor, and I had to pick it up. Rushed for my hand sanitizer right afterwards. Then I ended up buying the WRONG ticket, and when I was at the turnpike going into the station, the lady in front of me was as slow as a MULE and she put her card through, she was walking through….I put my card through, and then she STEPPED BACK (on my foot might I add…)
WAH! i’m getting irritated again just talking about it! And then the following day, Mom and I were stuck in traffic for 45 minutes to meet Dad, then when we picked Dad up we stayed another 1 hour in traffic. Gagh! I also bought Grego a McDonald’s set, and she gave me the WRONG burger! That was the final straw, and I just had to run upstairs in my room and take few deep breathes.
Recovered a bit, then called my dearest friend if she would consider coming to Bangkok, my parents invited her over. Didn’t expect much, but it was worth a shot and she said yes!
Hurrah! I haven’t seen her for over 6 years! I’m so excited! i haven’t been able to sleep for the past few days because my mind is racing about all this planning we have to do, and also for the sheer fact that we are going to meet each other!
The dynamic duo reunion!
I wish our rising-star could join, 
but I guess that reunion will have to be for next time in the Greek Islands!
Anyhoo, I move around alot, so when I leave places, I have a sinking feeling that I would never live there again. For example, I will never live again in Toronto or Montreal, and I will never live in Singapore again. So in the back of my mind, I always wonder if I will ever meet my friends again, or am I destined to have a perpetual long distance/internet connection relationship with them?
For example, I never thought I would ever see our Japanese friend (we were his sort of big sisters at York, he was one of our frosh) ever again after toronto, but here I am, 6 years later, presented with the chance of a reunion! Who would had thought!
So I have approximately 6 weeks until my great 2008 adventure, and I’m on a deadset mission to lose those final 5 kgs before the trip (because right after we are going to Phuket).
I want to sign some business deals, and lose 5kgs in 6 weeks. That’s my goal. I know I wrote about destination addiction, and how I should live in the now, and not constantly chase things. But you see, i’m an addict, this is what I do.
My body is sore from a complete hour of tennis plus an intensive 30 min weight workout.
I’m going to break out of my Bangkok bubble!
Hurrah!
Speak soon,
Stacy
