Another quiz

I didn't feel like doing anything better. So, I just did a quiz online.

Maybe I should send this to Mark as well...

How You Are In Love

You fall in love quickly and easily. And very often.

You tend to give more than take in relationships.

You tend to get very attached when you're with someone. You want to see your love all the time.

You love your partner unconditionally and don't try to make them change.

You stay in love for a long time, even if you aren't loved back. When you fall, you fall hard.

A wedding

I went to a colleague's wedding last night. Met the boss there as well. It was a small and intimate gathering. The bride was Thai. The groom was Danish. Pretty nice, really.

I knew the bride wanted to play matchmaker. But since Mark and I haven't actually broken up, I still consider myself taken (Yep, my marital status is still Pending Confirmation). So, I glued myself to boss. Hehehe...

I'll attend another wedding next Friday. I have known the bride to be for about 15 years. We went to the same university. Of course, she got her degree and I managed to get myself expelled after 3 years. The groom to be is English. I was their Cupid. So, I'll make a speech. And also probably a co-MC. Goodness help me!!!

War

Goodness knows why I keep getting attacked.

I've been on a few forums for a couple of years. For some unknown reason, I keep getting attacked/slagged off. I've asked my friends too if I was actually THAT bad. Hmm.. no, they said.

Well, I mean, I'm nowhere near perfect. But I think I'm all right. I mean.... not that bad that I deserve all the attacks and abuses all the time.


And it happened again today. I got dragged into AsiaExpat bashing - since I am a moderator there. A couple of friends told me about it. And I was furious.

I was being trashed by a few people who know fook all about me. Made nasty remarks about me. Wrote some rumours about me. And they bashed me away.

So, a few friends stuck up for me. Opened a war to defend me. I've been kept out of it though. They have handled it better than I would. Being a Thai who uses colourful language and all...

As Mark has always said to me when some shit happens....

Rise above it, baby.

Bangkok in the news

We've made it.. again.

A wee bit sensitive, this subject. So, I am not going to comment.

I am now just going to post pictures I took around 2 PM today instead.

New Opportunity

Oh shite, I just spoke to my boss.

He's got some new projects on his own. So, he will need professional people to help him out with the work. And he's asked me. He also asked me to talk with my assistant and see if she's interested. Work will be very very loaded. Stress level will be very very very very high. That will also make him become very very very very very very difficult to work with.

But good opportunity. Good pay, good bonus. Just work damn hard.

He said to me that he knew I would be capable of doing it, he just needed to convince me. Ahh.. that's so nice to hear.

Looks like I'll take it.

If I take it, I will not allow myself to be distracted. I will have to sort everything out with Mark very soon and see where we stand.

Hmmmm.... ready to talk to me yet, baby???

Monday again

Weekends are never long enough, really.

Saturday night, after a few emails back and forth between Mark and me, I got to sleep around 6 AM.

Yep, 6 bloody AM.

And I got up at 9.30 AM thinking I would do some laundry. But then, couldn't be arsed. So, I just ate and watched TV. Not too bad, I fell asleep again in the afternoon. But still very tired.

I got to chat with Andrew a bit in the evening and agreed to meet up for a drink.

Life is good once I get my pint.

Didn't go too mad since we were old and were a bit tired. So, we left the pub before closing time.

He went back to his place (I think). And I went back to mine.

Uh huh. No shag. No physical contact, other than the hug before I got in the cab.

My marital status is still in question. But like I've said to my friends, I'm still taken until advised otherwise. And I'll remain faithful to him until proven I have to move on.

Not difficult to remain faithful. But it's frustrating when you don't know jack shit about what the fuck is going on in your intended's head.



Oops, scuse my language.

The First Caucasian has been brought into The Nopakuns...

... not by me!!!

I just got back from a mini family party - from my Dad's side. There were about 50 of us. The occasion was my cousin and his fiance are going back to the US tomorrow.

It turns out my cousin is going to be the first one to marry a Westerner - since my plans seem to be totally fucked already. He has lived most of his life in the US. So, needless to say, his fiancee is American. She seems a nice girl. I wasn't in a friendly mode, so I didn't talk to her. Besides, everyone was talking and laughing it's so hard to hold a conversation with anyone.

And I was busy eating.

And I couldn't stop thinking about Mark.

That's just how it's supposed to be!!! You ask someone to marry you. He/she meets the family and becomes a part of the family. And you fooking get married.

Not fooking fook off.

Oh God... I need a shrink.
