About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I sleep, I dream, I wake up and I live!

ABOUT ME

I am currently working as a Science teacher in Nong Khai, Thailand but I used to be an ESL teacher in Bangkok for 4ish years. I love Bkk; crazy, fun, interesting and lots of wonderful people like my friends.

Ive been pretty scared of travelling alone, cant really figure it why but yeah I was afraid to do it when im on my own but things change, Im braver now hehehe

ohhh I love hosting dinners as I love to cook and can be a drinking party too if my friends are up to it but lately Im living a low profile coz my apartment would sack me for all the noise we created the past few months.

Right now I love reading my chemistry and physics books while creating powerpoint. I love watching the sunset by the Mekong River but would want to witness the magnificient sun setting on the ocean in Laos. I heard they could see it from there.

I have kiddy-size mountain bike that Im using in Nong Khai to go to work and to go around town. so basically I gave up my city life which includes taxi,skytrain etc. and also the wide range of food that I could choose from while I was in Bkk.

I can have fun (excessively lols) without me noticing it which involves drinking if not talking in the office and even watching channels in different languages in my tele but I miss cartoon network and boomerang. It sucks I dont have them on my cable :(

Meeting people is one of my interests, exchanging new ideas and culture as well. I can be open if I want to but at times (like 20% of the time Im not)

PHILOSOPHY

I wanna trod the road less traveled, help for the cause of humanity and be a better person. :)
