City of smile and its charm
Didn't sleep after work from last night since I am too excited about the trip this time. Leave at 5 am to the airport and arrived BKK city at 10:15 am. This trip is about to attend a graduation ceremony and to meet a friends Jen which I talk with her for long.
It's too nice for Jen and Jeffery to come pick up since they have class right next to a few couple of hours. Jeffery is a close friend of Jen. Filipino-Thai who born in Israel. He run a little business with friends after school as always .Arrived in ASOKE at around 11:15 am. Talking about hotel here .The country itself is diverse enough .Everyone can get different kind of things in here to suit your favorite with all kinds of welcome from the heart of the people here. For instance like hotel, guest house and motel. While those hotels are built in a standard way in some country else. Each of those here are designed in their own ways .Those high class hotel are decorated with Thai interior design. And for those guest house and motel. The guest can get close related with the hosts. It can be easily the Thai are good at details in life with their taste in life. Each is unique in character which offer a different feeling to everyone who came in. Outside most of the hotels get a little temple and Buddha status. They treat them as part of everyday life no matter what.
Sometimes it is hard to explain why I don’t travel with my friends here no more. Generally speaking, I just don’t want to waste time with them doing the stupid things at the shallowest level. They are just those grumbling people keep bitching that there is no air-con to serve , no fancy hotel or nice stuff for them and say insulting words to the place and people. If that really matter you that much, Don’t bother to come at all .You are not welcome here. No one need you here
Take the motor-taxi to their schools to meet other friends of them.. On the walk to the canteen meet their English teacher and she decided to join for lunch. The lunch is good and they are nice to talk to. I don’t know why whoever you talk there .You can easily get along with them and have fun talk with them. I just love this feeling. Their class start at 1:30 pm. So I guess it is time to leave them focus in class first. Will do a catch up again after 4:30 pm. Within these few hours .Just stop by the Nana area. It is a area with many energetic people there Lots of bar and dining place ,each with unique building outlooks and decoration. There also get lot of roadside stall selling traditional Thai food, fruit ,barbecue food etc. Local Thai craft can also be easily found there. That’s what I adore while in the other city people keep building mall for big name shop ,which replacing their own history and stuff. But in here, things are in balance ,not go in a extreme way .They get modern malls here of course but together they preserve local style store. It may not be fancy as mall. But no one will complain about that just because “they don’t look fancy” enough. They still buy and eat there .Cause all of them are belong to them, they are their everyday life .They don’t care everyone say of that.
There is a tons of city to fall in love with this country. It may not be the most modern one, and I don’t see any reason they need to. A lot of contrast in the city. No doubt , I don’t know all the staff here and all the staff behind .People are nice at the nicest level. Someone ever think it can’t be real because they don’t people can be this nice, But soon they will be proved they are wrong. They get a good soul from bottom. Everyone can feel that even the coldest one. No matter how hard they deny it. Probably just the spare the sour of grapes on behalf of those can’t be like them.The place get a good taste with the colors of the place itself decorate , the smell of the city is the combination of the scent of the road side food store and lot of elements which .All kinds of feeling ,from the things you see ,the smell ,the sound you hear come all together stimulate everyone’s sensation to make them charm so much
Meet Jen again after her class with her classmate Kate and Vi. We all going to Siam for some food. The store fuji is nice cause all the decoration and the atmosphere is nice. too. Good place for eat and talk. They are talking about the stuff happen in school and around their friend. Meet Jen’s sister Gift right after dinner at the Siam Paragon. ME and Jen decided to go the Aquarium in the basement floor while they want to do some shop on the upper-floor. It is a newly-built museum of sea water animal from shellfish to seahorse, different species of fishes .Large size animal like Seal and shark can also be found there. There is a tropical rain forest in the middle floor as well. Just feel like back to mother nature in there. Catch them up again after the museum visiting. They are getting some clothes for the coming Friday party. Leave them at 8 pm cause they wanna get home early.
Decided to walk around before going to the room. Get a call from Oil and ask if I wanna go temple with them at night. They are just around the neighborhood. So meet them in MBK department store and walk to the temples. They just finish the English class and decided to do some praying before go home. I just wait aside while they are praying ,but overheard them praying for me for good luck and say want to be friends again in next life with the words they say. I was just surprised and feel touched from the bottom of the heart. No one ever done this to me before. I am speechless at that moment just keep appreciate the things they do. Keeping thinking of this on the way back home with joy and appreciation.
