Leaving Tomorrow for Thailand

Well tomorrow i'm leaving for Thailand its been really busy at work and after work im at the gym or errands or trip planning or getting dinner with friends and i just haven't had any time to blog. i'll write a better one while i'm waiting in the airport tomorrow. oh i cant wait for more chops in my passport ('chop'='stamp' around here). we've been getting lots of goodies from vendors at work so my sweet tooth has been very happy. one vendor sent a big box of planners and calendars for 2010 and all the calendars had pictures of naked asian girls. which is comical because my side of the office is 90% women hahah. i took a few for my brother and matt and other friends back home. i'm sure they'll like them.

my eye is on the road to recovery. i went to the doctor last wednesday and had a follow up visit on monday. the doctors can dispense thier own medication here (you don't have to go to the pharmacy), so he gave me FOUR different eye drops. whatever i just took them i'm desperate. i probably only really needed one. i filled out the insurance paperwork who knows if i'll ever see that money again. i really contemplated not going to the doctor simply to avoid the insurance hassle.

i can't even tell its christmas!! i can't even feel like i'm going to thailand tomorrow. i think once i get on the plane i'll be in the zone but right now i'm just thinking about all the things i need to do before i leave... packing, finishing up things at work... i hope all my christmas cards make it to their respective destinations in time for the big day.

looks like i'll be staying here a bit longer. my boss says stay as long as you want! i think i will just extend one month. but hopefully we can decide that tomorrow. i'm going to try to fly through hong kong on my way home and stay a few days there. also if i stay longer i can celebrate chinese new year here which is supposed to be a really great holiday. also it will give me more time to contribute on the project and experience more of singapore.

i had such a good spinning class yesterday my legs are actually sore today which very rarely happens. i almost didnt go becuase i was right in the middle of something at work but it was already 7PM and i said to myself you wont be at the gym for a whole week just get your ass on the bike. sometimes the best workouts happen when you least expect it. i saw on the news that brittany murhpy died. a heart attack at 32 is not 'natural causes'. she obviously mixed the wrong drug cocktail (at 10AM on a sunday morning), and died. see that kids.. drugs are bad!

interesting note, i was talking to matt who had originally said.. you write too much on your blog can you give me a summary? now he is asking me why don't i blog more often. ha! i knew he'd come around. well i will write a new entry tomorrow. oh also i added the karaoke pics from 2 fridays ago.
