Friday, friday...

Hello again anyone who might glance this way,


The week is out again, classes ended early, possibly because more than half of the students decided to skip the afternoon for various reasons. Be it mani-pedi or leaving for the islands for a weekend getaway. That happens quite a lot, it's so easy to go out for a few nights, like I've said in most of my posts. Again some four of our exchange student group are leaving for Koh Chang to spend a beach weekend. While the rest of roast in Bangkok's ever so hot climate. But no matter, Bangkok still offers new things or old things experienced to be very enjoyable even if we've already done it for two months.

Time really does fly fast, but around here you really don't want to think about when you have to go back home. Most students have plans to keep traveling after the semester ends. Some of us even talked of the possibility to get a summer job in Australia. Flights from Bangkok to Perth/Darwin are very cheap and the wages downunder very enjoyable. Well, that's a problem for later dates :)

This was just a quick update! Now I'm off to go take an easy Friday at the pool. Tomorrow is going to be another hectic party Saturday, as they often tend to be around here.

PS. A hint for students thinking about their travel budget for coming to Bangkok: Have extra money. You might think living here is cheap (which it is, you can get by with 3-4 euros a day including commuting to campus and back, food and maybe a coffee, but living like this can be very dry), but especially in the beginning you will end up using a lot of money in clothes, entertainment (Movies, clubs, traveling etc.) and so on. It adds up. :)

What you have learned from experience is worth much more than gold. If you have a house it may burn down. Any kind of possession can be lost, but your experience is yours forever. Keep it and find a way to use it. Cheap Flights to Bangkok | Flights to Bangkok | Cheap Air Tickets to Bangkok

The movie Koyaanisqatsi shows non-commented time-lapse footage and focuses our attention on the very rhythm of our civilized modern life and nature. A marijuana high can do something for a user similar to what this time-lapse footage does. The enhancement of episodic memory and the acceleration of associative streams of memories can alter and enhance our recognition of patterns in our lives in various ways. If we are presented with quick associative chains of past experiences, we can see a pattern in a body of information that is usually not at once presented to our “inner eye” as such.
