I’m Busy

Sigh! I’ve been really really busy lately. My task list has been growing day after day, with 1 now is 6 days overdue already. Need to revised the due date for that then.

Help! I’m drowing here….

Thailand TOM Training – Day 5

Finally, it’s the final day of the training. And here are the survivors that endure the 5 days course of the training.

Going back to KL tomorrow. So I guess it’s goodbye to Bangkok.

Thailand TOM Training – Day 4

It’s 4th day of the training. I moved to a new topic today – which is tabulation. Things went pretty well, which I finished presenting all the topics for the day rather quick. The same as the previous days, let’s not talk about work here. Let’s talk about food instead.

After lunch, we did pass this.

It turned out that he’s selling coconut ice-cream. So Saaree, the DP Manager here treats me to coconut ice-cream.

Yummy. Guess how much this costs? It’s THB20. That’s around RM2.07. Pretty cheap.

Finding food here is not a problem at all. If I fancy Thai food, there’s this Muslim restaurant just around the corner. That time, when I was there, there are these 2 gentlemen from Malaysia having lunch there too. The thing about Malaysians when we met abroad, we never talk to each other. Been noticing that long time ago every time I met Malaysian whenever I travel. LOL

Anyway in Thailand, owning a C-Band satellite dish is legal here. I saw plenty on the roof of building here, which were installed privately. With this, you will be able to receive free satellite TV programs from all over the world.

It’s illegal to install one in Malaysia. If Water and Communications Ministry knows that you have one, they will come to knock it down. So I guess we will just have to stick to KU-Band satellite dish that Astro is using, which suffers a severe rain fade problem. Sigh!

Thailand TOM Training – Day 3

There’s actually no training today, as it’s a public Holiday for Thailand due to H.M. Queen’s Birthday, which also marks the Mother’s Day in Thailand. To start off the morning, I take longer breakfast today, and I’ve been trying this almost every morning – very sweet special “Thai Mango” or locals called “Ma-muang Nam Dok Mai”.

I just feel so lazy today, and just decided to stay at hotel, resting. What’s good is, this hotel has a selection of movies that you can rent for free. I can borrow 2 movies every time, and once finished watching, I can return it, and borrow 2 more movies.

As a start, I borrow Ghost and Resident Evil Extinction. Ghost is very classic and really love the story.

Hey, they have Akademi Fantasia in Thailand too, and they are at season 6.

It feels so good resting all day long today.

Thailand TOM Training – Day 2

It’s the end of the second day of training. So Sastra is bringing me around Bangkok again tonight, this time to the central of Bangkok. Traffic here is as bad as Malaysia after office hour, so cab is not a good option. BTS SkyTrain here is the choice, and it’s really really packed after office hour.

So here’s the stop for tonight, Siam station.

And there’s this long Sky Walk, connecting several shopping complexes around this area. It’s called Sky Walk as this is an elevated pathway for pedestrian. A good concept though as we won’t be bother with massive traffic below. Love to see we have this at Bukit Bintang area.

So my destination is Central World Plaze. Phew. It’s 10 mins walk on the Sky Walk from Siam station. There’s this cultural show at their concourse, so I spent about 15 mins there watching it.

Then I walked the are for about 1 hour or so, then I’m headed back to hotel. Kinda tired.
