Sawasdee Krup Thailand

I'm already here in thailand, in the office to be exact...yeah i know its saturday but we still have to be here in the office to start the project so that we can go back there to the philippines as soon as possible.

Ms. Bing(my senior) was really scheduled for a flight the other day, april 20 and i was a chance passenger then coz my schedule is really yesterday. They want me to be a chance passenger so that ms. bing has a companion.. we weren't able to catch the flight coz we came in late...hehehehe... well we didn't do it intentionally...and because of that ms. bing rebooked her flight on the same time as mine...we didn't want to leave the country for our own reasons...her reason is because she just came in from a maternity leave and her baby is just 2 months old only. my reason is if i were to come here in thailand i will not be able to attend the graduation ceremony on may 11 coz this project will last for about 3 months or so... the only thing i wanted before is to graduate and attend the ceremony, after what i've been through with my subjects i wouldn't be able to attend the graduation because i'm here...my officemates already told me that the chances are to slim that the company will let me go back there for graduation... its so sad... :(

We arrived at Bangkok international airport at exactly 5:45pm yesterday. After chiecking out we went to straight to our hotel to drop off our baggages and then headed to office to let them know that we're already here...it was already past 9:00pm when we left the office. We went to robinsons mall to have dinner and bought some foods to stock up our hotel rooms hehehe...

My insights upon arriving here and seeing thailand for the first time...Thailand is just like the Philippines, traffic worse here than in the philippines i think, narrow streets, lots of street foods, 'tiangge' everywhere, not so clean streets, congested houses, train, and the people...they also look like filipinos...its even hard to distinguish especially when they are not talking...
