sitting in front of this laptop, i start to stare at the screen, with impatience creeping up on me while i wait for the entire page to load. the internet seriously goes at an abysmally slow speed. but i should be grateful i can actually use the internet here.
life in thailand has been rather interesting, have seen a lot that i've never seen before. i can say that it is definitely tough to communicate with them and it takes pretty much patience for us to speak the the people ad vice versa.
i admire the sales people. really, despite the fact that they do not understand english and we don't understand thai, they still try their best to serve us. and i would say that the salespeople here are much friendlier than those in singapore with very little exceptions.
every single day i await for the moment to make use to the laptop so that i can communicate with my friends via MSN. then disappointment overwhelms me when the people whom i wish to talk to are not online. meanwhile while i talk to some other people, it feels like i can't understand them at all. however it's not the simple kind of confusion. it feels as if there's a serious communication breakdown and i can't even catch what they are trying to tell me, like me not understanding thai and them not being able to understand us. feels like a friend lost, yet i don't feel exactly sad and i don't know why. maybe i' ve given up in a way. yet within me i still feel a slight tug in my heart, telling me to salvage the situation. but i still tell myself: leave this matter till i return. maybe u just can't understand twittish typings. weird. i think im blabbering nonsense here.
then the smses. people sms me but a sense of helplessness creeps into me when my friends need my help and i can't reply due to the phone bills.
and i feel like i'm out of touch, not knowing what's happening in the outside world since im simply living in a world of four people whom i know, ie, my family members. i was shocked to hear about maddie's granny.
gtg. bye! (wild rantings that dont make sense, i realised. -.- oh well)
