I had the strangest and most rewarding experience the other night. The Bar was open and I was taking advantage of it; Chatting on the PC and simply relaxing. All of the sudden, a lady comes around asking interesting questions.
What a lady. I obviously began with my rant about how, exactly, it was I came to choose Chinese. She went on to tell me that it was the wrong decision. She herself, did the Thai degree that I had averted following my recent heart breaking experience. It was from then that we started discussing the little intricacies of "Mueng Thai". What a place, an amazing place, quite unique. The discussion was followed by dinner at her place and me staying there the night. Don't worry, no untoward business by any means.
Following my interesting (to say the least) experience, the night before, I decided to speak the coordinator for Thai. Ms Chintana is also an impressive person. She told me of the contacts she had in Thailand. We discussed further some of those intricacies and I was hooked. Money vs Satisfaction and pride. The choice was easy.
So, to cut a long story short, Thai is the language of the day. I'm sure this recent indecision will bring more concerned thoughts; however, I believe that I am on the right (ever changing) path. I have slung a token around my neck that has been sitting in the bottom of a bag for some time now. My love for the country has been restored, thanks to an eccentric Aussie of varying descriptions. This lady seems mad as a hatter, but I would like to say this now:
"What an amazing person. One of the more interesting people I have met, and surely one of the most inspirational"
Thanks.
