lalalalala

I'm back from the Land of Smiles. It's really just like the Philippines except:

1. it's waaaaay cleaner
2. make a joke about their king and everyone will be angry (here, make a joke about our president and most will laugh with you)
3. they wear color coded clothes for when you want to honor the king (it's not required though. monday's yellow. un lng naalala ko. :P)
4. people are more friendly and welcoming here, prettier too. :P except sa guys, kpg sa guys, cguro pantay lng.
5. real thai food is sold in the streets (wala silang mga carinderia. what they have are "isaw/fishball" type stalls and a couple of plastic table and chairs around or behind it. and for some reason, my mom says it's okay to eat street food in all countries except the Philippines. wierd.)
6. fruits are much much MUCH sweeter (not to mention, bigger)
7. their malls open late and close early
8. no flies (at least I didn't see any, kahit around the street food, wala)
9. come to think of it, there weren't any street children as well
10. their beggars hands were always in the "thank you" position even if noone gives them anything, like they're thanking you for letting them sit there and beg
11. their monks have ipods and buy the latest canon cameras
12. they have a super nice airport
13. food there is really cheap (except if u eat fastfood or american food)
14. it's not as tourist friendly as here (few speak english and those who do are hard to understand)
15. it's a few degrees hotter

The trip was great. But it's great to be back in a place where you can understand what everybody says. Even if it's dirtier and smellier and all. It's good to be back home. :)
