many days later..

here i am. many days later. in the new year.

i had a new year party last night. a sort of spontaneous ,unplanned house party.
lots of indulgences into the night i started the usual 'propounding of nonsense theories' usually associated with consumption of large doses of things your mother warned you to stay away from.

here's the latest 'nonsense theory'
yknow Y2k? well the whole world thought systems would breakdown
but in actual fact, unknowingly people broke down. and THAT'S how "motherfuckers gonna drop the pressure" became a hit song.

yeah yeah i know. moral of the story: if you cant be the life of a party try not to be the fool. i narrated this very dramatically to an audience hoping for me to do soemthing really stupid and end up becoming one of those great 'new year party silliness stories' ..but the joke fell kinda flat ..hmm i wonder why..

anyway it was nice. friends , laughter, actually LOTS of laughter at nothing at all and a warm cosy sleep afterward. ive slept all day today. indulging in the one thing i usually get very little of. i love sleeping int he afternoons. its a family tradition. all holidays we eat a great full meal and promptly make the right arrangements for a very long very relaxing siesta. my aunts, parents, cousins , me all stand guilty as charged. and how we love it.

oh and by the by, i went to bangkok in december. work + holiday. work days i hardlky saw the city but after that i did a lot of roaming around. a friend with the common love of walking aroudn cities went with me to chinatown and the shopping mall (yes, malls are the new parks, its the only place to walk anyway )

chinatown was mad. i have pictures of unidentified eating objects hanging from street stalls looking strange but delicious, and of a bizarre HUGE school bus with the most fantastic japanese illustrations..!! ok im just gonna put up the pics now




weird food.



more weird food!



bangkog city. reminded me of bombay all the time



patayya walking street!!!! the sex street with all the mad shows . totally overhwelming monstrosity of neon , ladyboys, weird animals and live huge seafood



the awesomely cool japanese school buses


everyone who reads have a great happy happy new year!!!
ciao now dahlings!

Wow!!!

i feel awesome when i see that people are getting to travel to all these exotic venues.

I am just wondering how Pokemon feels about all the weird food thats hanging on the blog

maybe a better conversation at a new years party with heavy/slight/mild indulgences in "things your mother warned you to stay away from" would be about the domination of the company YKK rather than Y2K storm.

I love the school bus too.

i don't when my traveling days will begin. I am hoping its soon

I just prefer using nicknames.
I wonder that if a guy is named Nick, does he have a nickname as well, or would just Nick be valid for his real name as well as his nick
