Normalcy

OK so school resumed today so I was able to get my substitution assignment for that damn seminar class so now I can graduate. Things are back on tracks. The whole day I was out, even drove to Bang Na, and not even once I came into contact with the army men nor the tanks. Have they all gone home?

Looks like things are getting back to normal, despite the country being under Martial Law. One new little change that this law brought us is the whole new level of censorship. No political gathering, no discussing politics, and of course no voicing your opinions whatsoever about the whole mumbo jumbo coup. (Oops did I just do that?)

The Ministry of ICT is now trying to destroy monitor all online contents being published to the public that could cause people to divide a.k.a. start a counter riot and all that crap. I doubt it will happen though, the tanks somehow have no effect on people, except being a new must-visit Bangkok attraction.

So fine, no opinions then no opinions. It's not like we Thais were ever able to exercise our rights of freedom of speech anyways.

So let's not talk about politics today, let's talk about me! Met up with my old Brit buddy Maddy from Harrow today after Uni with Bua. Great timing to come to Bangkok. I'm swamped with last-week-of-uni work and now the Coup. So we had to take her out, gotta catch up on things. We're still as crazy as ever we haven't changed one bit. Man I miss the old days.

Normalcy for me means resume to shopping so we did - at Suan Lum Night Bazaar. For the first time though I didn't buy anything. Just didn't feel like it after I busted out 4,500 off my wallet on a new pair of Nine West wedges Sunday.

Then we had a little fun at the MRT while waiting for the train.

I now present to you, for the first time ever, a video blog! Not just from one blogger, but TWO! Bua somehow turned it into a personal ad but hey there's nothing new there.




BTW, those are THE SHOES. Who the hell wears heels to Suan Lum? It's a suicide..
