robert back to la

my first time sending someone out to suvanabum the new airport in thailand.

although, i initially thought that it takes up to an hour.... going there is relativily fast

i'd really say 30 min or even less......but coming back.... a definite hour!

it's wonders how traffiic can change that much.



so our day today went fairly well.... my workpermit is almost completed.
hopefully after tomorrow everything will be cleared and i'll have a work permit
with visa!!!!

thank you rose for all the work

can't even start mentioning what we went through... but it's nearing the end.


as for our team... i'm beginning to see some difference in attitudes.

i don't what to yet judge... but by a blink, it's there to haunt me.....

just hoping that it won't blink on me again.



well.... tomorrow is another early day....


go to sleep


and have a good day for everyone!

beer garden

yes!!!


it was the first beer garden trip of the year.



where .... world trade... at beer singha



what a relief....



blackhead was headlining for the staging... but seemed to be just entertaining the crowd...

but for drunk crowed.. i think that was good.


so today, it was the first the our team went out to drink together.


i was a bit excited and so did the team.


just really hope this connects to the future of having a more binded team.


ok... a bit drunk tonight... but happy that i recovered from the food poisoning!

noi @ luv

it was a funny day today

noi came in to finish setting up our servers

just needed to setup the ip and network so rose put on the movie

................napolean dynamite.............


what a crazy movie.......


enjoyed it twice...actually saw it last night (*＾ー＾)

to break it down to the bone.......


...........................it's about a guy named napolean dyanamite.....
........................................................................ who is thought to be incapable of taking care of himself,



actually lives by his heart......his true feelings.....

the movie goes through a typical high school students life

with a good heart & closes with a happy ending.......


a few subplots of disgrace, pride and ego that haunts as you get older..... but

the story is told very funny and addicting.......


gotta see nacho libre......


so.............we're watching a movie and things slow down.......

and as we discuss what we have done.....


noi mentions that salaone is stale!!!!!! ((((((ﾉﾟ⊿ﾟ)ﾉ

my vains start showing and my breath a little quicker.... wonder .......how ..... why....... uhhhhh........ let's discuss this.......



it turned out that eveyone still had an opinion and the website still doesn't look good.......


we began to pinpoint what needs to be done......

and

even look at other webpages and discuss them as well........




....


............. what a good day for me....................



it's only the first step.... but ...... an important step.... to realize what needs to be done.



my lesson of the day........


don't stop your feet @ 99.9%

that 0.1% may still be a long way

a day after loy kratong

a day afer loy kratong....


with a big bang of fireworks that was pretty impressive this year.
it went by so quickly... so quietly .....

apparently this year, the governement had ordered the people to only loy kratong at near by public parks.


.....does this mean that you can't celebrate at the chao praya river????


well... that didn't stop all the people from going there or selling kratongs as the previous years
but it did have an effect......


i'm still not sure if it was from the flooding this year.... that the government wanted to keep things safe....

or is from the trash that they have to clean up afterwards everyyear???

either way, flowers were expensive and people played safe.

it is sad to see a tradition dissapate at the same time glad to see issues are being challenged.



i still can't say i'm for or against.... cuz i do enjoy loy kratong everyyear....

yet this year it did really shock me of how it can become a pollution issue......

that's right... last year... bun was still here and we were getting ready for him to go to school....


we're still in the process... everyday is changing.....
don't stop to look back.....go with the momentum......


and seigo went to bansean with faa, nok and johnny.

he sounded....stoned .... as usual....:*:・(￣∀￣)・:*:

but repeated that it reminded him of hawaii.....

i thought it was a good thought for him.... to be remined of very good times
and how it can be right now too.


memory is a good thing.... it helps you see reality clearer and quicker.


I wish


a moment

of happiness in all our lives

to be a

seed of

success


a garden of


life.

out clubbing again

with no hangover today

but a bit dazed out....

yesterday was really fun.

rose and i hadn't gone out drinking or clubbing for a long time now... or since rose's b-day
which was about a month ago....

but before that, it's been awhile....

so for the past few weeks, we've been asked out to go drinking with our friends
but we managed to stay home and work....getting ready for our project.

well, it's not a good feeling when you have to reject your friends all the time

and

worse yet.... not seeing them at all.


so we decided that we should take a quick break to tie our friends up at nearby club.

trying to decide where to go... i remember....."song saloon is back".... they have somehow emerged again
going through change of ownership, new interior and... who knows... maybe a change in management as well

anyway... this place is full of memories and it was sad seeing them go out.

so early in the night.... 9 pm .... rose and i are already sitting there listing to the bands with a bottle of johnny black

yes 1 hour... no one..... 2 hour.... no one....hmmmm....
begin to wonder how the night really was going to turn out.....

but not too long after the 2nd hour... tai comes rolling in... then job.....then johnny... and nok and their friend from taiwan
......and last but not least....seigo and faa....

as i thought it will be a light drinking atmosphere... it turned out that we open the second bottle....near closing
.....that's when everybody was just starting to heat up......

i did feel happy that most everyone enjoyed

though with more wisdom.... i do realize the difference of

drinking to have fun
and
having fun drinking

this was a turning point for me


if i can keep this wisdom even just for drinking i'll be happy.
if i can use this wisdom for other situations i'll be very wise.

it was true..... although i didn't want to admit it

you have to admit the fact you are an addict before you can solve anything.

if you can't accept you will never really understand.



hope that this will last once again.

so that our child will not have to go through the same mistakes.

cuz we can teach them what will happen.


today is roy kratong

we will be in bangrak as the previous years.

it's nice to be part of a tradition.

reminds me of thanksgiving and x-mas....new years and b-days


after 4 years in thailand.... it's finally becoming a home with a tradition.

best wishes to all the people tonight roy kratong!

Novemeber and still waiting

my mind has not been very active lately... so i have noticed.

why is that?

haven't been golfing, haven't been eating at new restaurants, haven't been drawing or writing much.

not even going out clubbing.... so what do i do these days..... sit in front of the computer and work.

this i've now realize to be not the best practice..... especially when i'm about to get married in say.... one month

(￣□￣；).....

so, rose and i have decided to go exercising at a local fitness... CA (california) fitness.......

whopee!!!

ten minutes into my exercise.... which is

only running...at half speed....

...i was out of the game...... ヽ((◎д◎　))ゝ

out of breath... taking breaks....

my world was spinning in many directions as i try to stay balanced....

the rest of the time....


barely even moved.....


now this raised a point in my thought......


not only my mind has been stale.... my body has been going down at the same pace.... (maybe even faster)


the mind is connected to the body.... which is then connected to our soul.....

this balance creates harmony to recycle our energy......wow....no more coffee and beer for me

l(^∇^)l

so enough waiting.... feeling like i don't know what to do, because my mind wanders off....

take an action and see what happens.

it's november.......

and loi kratong is near

remember today for tomorrow and make it a yesterday you cherish.

cuz this year comes only once.... and it's a fun one!

dreams

i've been having odd dreams.

they all involve a little bit of weed in the end.

a nice a fat one too...and very fresh

but the first one came with Cheryl

a thought i'd lost for awhile, which reminded me of mila and dan.

next of peato.

this also was a surprise. since i was reaching for fabric and trying to stitch together a new piece.

it's probably just a recap and mixture of everyday feeling is what i think.

but just thought it was odd.


so today we moved the servers for salaone to another room.

this thank god is really just another room next door. so the move wasn't bad.

we....por and i....did run into a few small troubles, which i thought evaded pretty well.

now it'll be a final setup and by friday, i hope we can see a nearly completed version of salaone.



btw, por first started on computers at the age of 11.
his parents are teachers at a university and he had early exposure to computers.
his first computer being a 286... he really speaks the language.

a feeling that i compare to finding a treasure.

i hope one day our children will be inspired similarly

and that i can be good inspiration for generations yet to come

Halloween

it's Halloween in Thailand!!!

i really haven't seen this much people celebrating halloween.

feels quite odd coming from the states... but i guess this is really a world trend these days.


so my day went by very well.
although i still am nervous waiting for the carriers to contact us.
hopefully this will be happening this week.

but until then, just be patient.

the kids seemed very tentative today.
i was very happy with the result that came out from all of them

a more serious attitude and caring is coming out in their work.
which makes me feel 120% good but should only show 80% for conduct.

now what we can do to improve ourselves is get more information.

once again, read more and write more and draw more!
(｀∀´)

be happy and be creative.

another thing,

this morning rose woke up early!

earlier than i.....

that only happens when there is something we have to do....

either way.... very happy (*＾ー＾)ノ cheers!

thinking

i've been thinking in a cycle for a long time.

of course being under the influence doesn't help so much(・ω・)/

so during this jay period it's making me realize about how i can organize better.

so a few things i've been working on.

1. getting things done with a to-do list.... don't wait
2. think and try to track back your thought after a while and see how far you can track back
3. write unconsciously
4. read more
5. eat well
6. sleep well

sounds easy.... yeah..... but i wasn't able to do that....
and i see how much my mind loved to drift

wonder so much that sometimes the reality merged with my imagination

everyday is another day,

you can be yesterday, today or tomorrow

that's all up to you.

keep your mind clear to know where you are to find your bliss in life...
