I have made a mild observation. I want to stop smoking cigarettes. Now my funds are exceptionally low and I thought, well this is the perfect time to just stop. So I missed my morning smokes and by 9 I felt that I was about to fall asleep at my desk. I'm curious to know if there is a connection with my lack of smoking. If my body is going to deteriorate during the process of quitting then I'm not to sure if it is wise for me to stop immediately. I'm sure all the non-smokers out there will tell me that it's all will power and I'll feel better when I stop but today's evidence seems to say otherwise.
I'm open to advice.
Plans are going well. School is on its way and I'm really looking forward to stopping all this work. As of 2nd semester I'll be a BA student - only temporarily. Next year I'm going to commit to my 4 yr Bachelor of Asian Studies - Thai. My fascination with Thai language has been increasing exponentially the more I learn. At present I know all the consonants and most of the vowels. My goal is to be proficient in the alphabet, tone rules, reading (to a certain extent), writing and grammar. This will give me a great head start for my course next year and could also mean the exemption to the beginner classes I'll have to do in Year 1.
I have installed the Thai language support on my PC so now I can start practicing writing by typing instead of writing. I feel this may assist with my connection to the letters as I can touch type quite fast in English and connect well with the keyboard.
I'm going to attempt to teach my readers a thing or 2 about Thai language as this could also assist me with my learning processes.
Anyway, I'm looking forward to comments as it has been some time since my last comments.
One disclaimer - A link to my blog was placed on a Thai forum. Unfortunately the forum is frequented by people that think they know too much. An assumption was made that I have quit all my aspiring goals in the pursuit of my dearest. This is not true. I'm still heading off to Uni and I'm still trying with all my might to make this relationship work. I find it amusing how so many people pass judgment on Thai women while being ill informed and arrogant. One comment someone made on this forum was:
"This guy is going to get taken for a good ride. And he has no money so it will probably be a short ride once she finds out he has nothing to give her" - Seafox
This comment infuriates me. A judgment has been passed in an international forum. I hope fellow readers can see through this guys logic by noting that my GF is more than aware of my financial situation. To assume that she would leave me once she is more well informed of my financial circumstances is a "Crock of shit". She knows what I am going through and she is also faced by the same sort of scarcity I see everyday in my own life. In actual fact I'm not to stressed out as this was coming from an over-zealous salesman and I think he is perhaps bitter due to negative experiences in the past. I'm more concerned for the greater community demanding some sort of transparency and clarity in what they read. He has defamed myself by making an ill informed judgment and also insulted a nation by criticizing its people. He should be ashamed of himself. You can not the comments at the bellow address.

HAHAHAH also a guy used the word "Love" in relation to me and the emotional state I'm in with my GF. :oP I never used that word in my communication with him. OOOO the L word. I do care dearly for my GF but I never said that word. Love is something that develops over time and experience. Not over tea and biscuits - hehehe sorry for the bad analogy.
Yet again I find myself needing to explain actions of myself and others. Why do I bother?
