i like how i got sick on the plane and came to my parents;' place with a fever ): feeling a lot better now though lol
its 7PM here. 15 hours aheadof pacific time.
bangkok is pretty interesting! the british never colonized it so english isn't prominent at all in the main city even though there's a lot of expatriates here. there's small shrines and pictures of the king everywhere and the people are all loyal to him. its actually kinda interesting i read up on it and he did a lot of programs to help out the poor people. i know 2 words in thai so far LOL hello and thank you.
it turns out my dad got pretty damn lucky for accepting the contract to work here because the branch of western digital in fremont is laying off a lot of people and he wouldve been on that list had he stayed. i was worried about my parents making it here especially with mogley since i was at riverside when the left but they're doing a lot better now. mogley gets a gigantic(3 bedroom( apartment to run around in and my mom gets to visit her relatives as they're just a short 3 hour flight away now!
kinda wish i was in fremont right now with everybody but i might as well make the most of these 2 weeks. also mogley :>
