Now it's the day. I take off from Mexico City tonight (Mex. time), I'll be in Paris tomorrow afternoon (Paris time), maybe I'll talk to my son by phone, then at night another plane and landing in Don Muang at 3:30 pm?
I slept 2 hours to finish my luggage last night, like a zombie at school this morning, driving very carefully to go home. I must close the house now and go to the airport.
I won't be able to connect and vote you, my friends, but will do it by the heart.
I cannot believe that I'l
I just updated the event.
It should be at Admaker for the begining, and then where we want.
It can still change if many ppl don't agree, I'll confirm it when I'm in Bkk.
Comments are welcome.
Here are some pics I took with my class at the gym. It's not what I intended to do, but I like the result.
BUT they are too small here! How do you do to have them biger in Photobucket and/or in your journal? I cannot have them more than 160X120 pixels, and I can see that some of you can do that.
I finished graduating my kids a few days ago; I'm glad because nobody repeats. 2 weeks more giving classes but hands in my pockets, at least being an old teacher allows me to improvise.
My son is in the plane over the Atlantic. Left him tonight in Benito Juarez (Mexico City airport) and I'll see him next time going down from his plane in Don Muang? weird!
I've got 1 liter of very good French wine running in my blood, listening at Rose, my ex and her husband just left, after taking Pablo to the
So: I posted an Event for my (so happy) coming to Thailand. I asked where I could do it (don't know personnally any good place). Every body gave good advices but scolded me saying: decide by yourself? Hey, I'm the teacher, I am the one who ask and scold! LOL
So: you're right. But as I don't know the places, I can't decide now from so far.
So: I thought to cancell it, but I have a better idea, let's see if it works?
I'll arrive in Bkk the 3rd of July (AAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!, just one month, I'm g
I man goes to the doctor.
- Doctor, I want to have a long life.
- OK. You don't smoke, you don't drink alcohol, only vegetarian food, and not much, sleep 10h a day, no sports, just smooth movements, no woman of course, and certainly no love, don't read too much, very low music, no mov?
- And, doing that, you can assure me a long life?
- I can't assure you a long life, but I can assure you that it will appear to you veeeeery long?
Still love TF but haven't been much online for some days?
Just vote for my voting list (takes quite long) and have a look on journals.
Now the question:
I would like to rent a "serviced room" for 5 weeks in Bkk for my next trip. I'd like it near Sky train or MRT. Don't want it to be too expensive.
Looked on internet (thanks to Mike for your idea), I found some which seem to be correct for location/price (8,000-18,000b/month)/look, but I don't know how to choose and if the provided informati
GRRRRRRRRR??..
Many problems and conflicts at work, on top of the normal heavy work with the kids.
Always running.
This world is so stupid, run by the worst.
Anger, I hate that, so get more anger. He he
Drive so fast and tough, won't last long.
Forgot an appointement!
Getting fat, smoke again.
No time for me, not enough for TF? or sleep.
But
I turn on my favorite site and mmmmmmmmmmmhhhhhhhhhhhhh
? calm down, smile's back, sun rises.
Hello folks. Good day, good night.
Thanks to my friends, the ones I know and the ones I hope to meet.
Thanks for the smiles . It shelters in the dark.
Silence online: Crisis post arrival ? Heartbreak ? Blues ? Face the reality ? Close every window inside ? Cry for the loss ? Survive 10% - Get use once more ?
School sucks: not the kids, quite nice inside the classroom. Direction lying, cheating, corrupted, incompetent? always conflicts. Strike on schedules.
Got the ticket to ride. Got it, got it, got it? July.
Event 8th or
I went to work this morning, good ambiance with the kids, maybe too good and me to relax? but life is short, no?
Then I dropped 2 friends to a massage ? no a massage parlor, doesn't exist here, and they are women, massage with stones they told me?!???!!! ? then I went to another friend's house, he lived in BKK 10 years ago, so we can share a lot of things, we got quite high, me with martinis and him with pernod, then we went to an Argentinean restaurant, beef with a quite good bottle of wine, j

I'm sorry to stay silent all this week (but maybe you're not!) but I was running all the time? Didn't even take the time to vote for u!!
I arrived (with my entire luggage!) on time last Sunday at 6:40, I was enjoying coffee at 7:25!! Never be so fast. But then it began?
No sound on my computer (I think I burned the card before going to BKK, no time to fix it since, I'll go in a couple of hours to buy a new one? never installed one, I hope it's not to hard), the boiler always off, much work (wr
I bought ?Thailand Fever? and read it in a few days. I?m not an expert about Thailand but it seems great to me, VERY interesting. I would recommend it to everybody interested by Westener/Thai relationships.
Have some TFers read it? If yes, I?d like your opinion about it on 2 questions:
- what do you think of the general description of the differences btw westerners and thai?
- HOW do you feel you are and are not like the average westerner or thai described in the book (TFers seem to me to be
Something happens each time (I beleive I was born with a ball of **** on my left foot!!): on my departure in January I lost my passeport and ticket, this time on my arrival THEY lost my suitcase!!! I was feeling very bad. Lucky am I finaly, cause they've brought it yesterday and I feel "a little" better. Ready for 2 little weeks of crazyness now.
I begun quite well: Route 66 yesterday, dansed hours, drunk, I feel a little special today... he he
What's next? :)

Coming to LOS
I'll be in Bkk next Sunday?
I'm so happy to see my friends again, from TF and others, to feel that life running in my veins.
I'm so afraid of adapting me again, and of the time I'll have to return here 2 weeks after.
I'm so unable to imagine I'll be there in a few days, but so crazy and excited that I can't sleep.
I'm so disappointed that the Pattay Festival is just when I'm in the plane, I dreamed to go.
I'm open, close, happy, frightened, hot, cold, up, down, here, not here
Since I've been in Thai sites, I could only read bad comments about French people, but when I ask why, nobody answers, even in TF...
I've been living out of France for nearly more than 14 years, I know why, and for God sake, I hope I won't ever HAVE to live there again.
But I would really like to know what is YOUR reasons to dislike French ppl (I know MINE).
On another hand, I begin to see that some TFers are learning French, so maybe they don't dislike it so much, or maybe it's just an horri
I like to work with kids (I'm a primary school teacher) and I hate school (to make it short: I think education in the world is still in prehistory, adults do exactly what damage the potential of children, poor kids).
I like kids because they're close to their feelings and show them. When they laugh, they laugh, when they're sad, they are, when they love, they love and give everything. They're in the present intensively. I'm more than grown up now but the kid inside is still alive.
In my f**g F
Happy Valentine's day to all of you...
... but me. I go back to work tomorrow (it's still Sunday here) and they have put a all f**g afternoon meeting, pure bullsh*t and nonsense. One of the longest and worst work day of the year.
From now on, TF and I will have only short times. LOL
Is there a way to use internet to call a number in Thailand from abroad?
I know one for France, I speak through the computer, they make the call to any number, and it's soooo cheap.
Does some1 know something like that in Thailand?
Now that I've got more time (free days), I can write about my last journey in Thailand.
Just a week before I went, I discovered TF. As I had tried some stupid chat, I was quite cautious, and shy too. But a few ppl opened the door and thanks to them (a special to Phannapa_Houngratana), because it's a really great place. In Bkk I had the luck to go to a TF party (special thanks to Asianchickygirl and Davidbkk) and had a great time, knowing TFers. Then you know, it's like a snowball. And now that
Now that we all know the TRUTH between Bobbyboy and Zeus (thanks Crazy Melanie), I know where I can take them if/when they come to Mexico (with you of course, Mel, no problema)...
Yesterday night with my best friends (2 men & 1 woman), we first went to a bar, El Rexo, which has been in the coup but maybe less today... Nice place, soft music, good drinks. I remember it quite different, incredibly crowded and noisy. Anyhow today also it was impossible to sit somewhere, we found to stand in th
