MBK

It seems that bangkok revolves around mbk for most singaporeans. I’m not sure, but I do enjoy my bulk of shopping there. It seems like it’s a place where you can get almost everything. Be it original or fake, junk or not.
Bought a new bag to fit everything in and it didn’t work out so well because everything isn’t comfortably fitting in. Either way, I love the bag a lot.
Just realised today there are quite a few people I don’t have something for, which is actually quite upsetting because they are somewhat important people to me. I don’t especially buy gifts for people when I am overseas but I will buy what I feel is appropriate for others. Most of the time, people buy me the wrong things. Like, they are reminded of me when they see it but I ended up not quite being able to identify with it. I hope the same situation wouldn’t happen to any of the recipients.
If you didn’t receive anything, don’t be affected by it. HA! Because it doesn’t show anything besides that I’m too sincere to get you anything for the sake of getting you anything. And you can trust me that I buy everything I feel fits anybody.
That’s for shopping.
Tomorrow will be the last day with tien before we go back to our own lives for the next year or few years to come. I really don’t foresee myself seeing him that often in the near future with my restrictions with leaving the country. I just realised this is only my fourth trip to thailand, third since I met tien. I thought I’ve been here more often but I realised there were many cancelled trips due to the political instability. Pity.
The 8-day trip didn’t seem to fly past as quickly as how my team mate felt his leave pass by. I think it’s all in the mind, how you would choose to percieve it. It feels pretty normal to me, I feel. Like part of my life, to catch up, to take a break, part of being normal. And in some sense, I’m glad the 8-day trip felt long, at least it felt significant and felt as if it lasted long enough. I’m actually ready to go back though I can expect everything to be a total rush preparing for my new assignment.
Everything gets more exciting, I realised. I wouldn’t know what happens tomorrow but I know it’s all great as of now.
