Bangkok

Sun Jul 1, 2007, 4:22 AM
I have been in bangkok for a week now, well almost. Its so odd, the culture is entirely different compared to any other culture we have seen so far. I found my biggest problem is acknoledging people, i cant help being so nice (cough), but seriously, when you look at someone, they automaticvally think that you want to give them money. Like Tuk Tuk drivers, stall people evt, all think if you look at them you want to give them bussiness. And i cannot believe how many suit salesmen there are here, like the Thai market for armani suits is HUGE, there are 3 with 2 sales men each ready to bother us as we step out the door of our hotel. I death stared them and now they dont bother us, VICTORY SCOTT, and when cab and tuk tuk drivers approach us, i just bluntly say NO, abbruptly and suddenly, it shocks them and they stop bothering me. And the streets are as, or even more, crazy as rome, people goign everywhere, sideways, if noone is driving on the other side of the rode then they will, zomg its insane. Kat and I went on a tuktuk driven tour of some sights of bangkok for about 20baht (47baht for 1 euro) but is was so cheap cos he took us to 3 or 4 different suit and tailors shops, and i happily bullshitted the salesmen making imporrible requests untill we both gave us... mu ha ha ha... Sigh, well one of the best things about this place is the food... MMMM, tthere ARE THESE people who sell really cheap pad thai for 20 baht, they make it infront of you anf there is one right outside our hotel. its just like a small trolly type thing with a wok on it. AWESOMNESSGWORDFOSHIZ bling, well since EVERYTHING is so cheap here i am buying alot of crap, and some for other people, ENGLISH, i have the BEST present for you, its made me laugh for like 3 days straight, almost litterally, i just randomly think of it and burst out laughing, kat can vouch for that. Sigh.. ZOMG 8 min left on the thing....

Well i am greatly looking foreward to getting home, cant wait, its going to be soooo fun, i hope everyone hasnt changed too much. Thats abit hypocritical cos i think i have changes alot too, but in alot of ways i havnt...

Well thats all i have to say so far in this brief run down of my week in bangkok, i will probally write a better and longer journal later when i get back, which is at the domestic terminal, at 12:35 on wednesday the 4th of July... for those of you playing at home
