Departure: 2.5 weeks

Departure, originally uploaded by ShonC.

Yes, I am counting down. I know I've probably said this to most of you already, but here it is again (just coz I'm excited): I'm in training all this week = learning+fun+opportunity to meet some great people. Back to the office next week for a short week, friday is a holiday and then the friday after that I'll be on a plane!! wohooooo! April 13 also happens to be Songkran, a Thai festival, very similar to Holi. People throw water on each other (no colors.)

I can't wait to get home and play with my niece, Rianna. I saw her last November and she was just gobs of fun to be with. I hear she now says full words and semi-sentences rather than making up her own mono-syllable names for everything.

I feel like I've struck off most things on my Thailand list. Seen the touristy spots, learnt about Thai culture, learnt some nuances of working in Asia, shopped a bit, bought some art for my apartment, took pictures. All that remains is a chocolate buffet at the Suko Thai hotel. Yes you did read correctly, CHOCOLATE BUFFET = unlimited chocolate in all forms. I think I'll go this weekend and get my sugar high. I might have some sort of a sugar hang over. Will one of you please check up on me, just in case I get too wired and spark something off! :)
