When I touched my forehead this morning, I felt a small bump growing and inhabiting happily above my browse! Ouch! A zit aka. acne!

I have been suffering from too much stress lately because of all my papers that I needed to finish. Assignments after assignments all falling into its respectives due dates which I in turn have to keep up with the falling speed! Not only my courses are causing this one tiny zit but I pretty much guess it's a culmination of all the work stress as well! It's a good thing if your boss notices and acknowledge your work in school but it's also a sign of more work to come! At least in my situation, I've been dump a whole load of work which I am quite happy to do without me studying but with both commitments on hands, I just feel like crashing as soon as I reach home. Good thing Hobbit wifey is taking me to a retreat next week! At least...at least...Or...Bring my work??

While looking through a furniture magazine, two blond housewives suddenly started a conversation about crib bedding.

HW1: I envy babies nowadays, they get all they want. Look at this crib bedding, isn't it too cute?

HW2: Yeah. We just spent thousands last year just to equip our daughters room with all the cute stuff we thought she deserves. 

HW1: How why? I am not willing to spend a big amount of money just to renovate my son's room unless I have the money..

HW2: But I have the money...(annoyed at HW1)

HW1: How come you haven't cleared the amount that you owe me?

HW2: What amount?

HW1: The amount that you borrowed until you had to beg me again and again.

HW2: Oh that!

HW1: That amount of money was the exact price for my dream crib bedding that we are going to put into our baby gir'l's new renovated room!

HW2: But you said you have the money?

HW1: Because I borrowed it from you, that's why I have it!  

*Not another diet pill ad! Sick of it!

Hey, speaking of rain, it happened that I found a cool "sound" poem that coincidentally depicts how I am feeling right now. 

Another good one is 

Rain

When it rains
The soft grey sky
Drifts to the ground
Brown rivulets
Trickle away
Trickle away
Washing sadness down
Weather vanes
Weep and turn
Weep and turn
Forgetting in the damp and grey
That by and by
The sun will shine
Sun will shine
By and by
The sun will shine.

Last week I spent almost a week taking a course required by the MOE towards all foreign teachears teaching here in Thailand: Thai Language and Culture course. As much as I enjoyed the discussions and lectures, I also enjoyed our trip to the ancient city Ayutthaya and eating lunch on a mini cruise along the Chao Phraya on our way back to Bangkok. Overall, the trip was educational and of course fun and I guess all of us who went enjoyed ourselves. I bet if we were to go on our own to the places we visited, it will be way too costly! One thing I noticed though was the public toilets. Many of the tourism populated area have clean toilets unlike some other countries. Well, Thailand do have problems with this too sometimes but what is good is the toilets here are very well taken care of. Ahh, why did I mentioned about toilet?? Okay, here are some pictures...

Illustrations according to the Thai myth we learned about.

I bet those of you who've been to Ayutthaya have been to this place.:)

Forgot what this is called.
