went there because i was forced to.. had no choice.. u see, within 3 months i flew overseas twice, and i had not been given any major break in my work.. there was simply not enough breathing time.. after i came back, i was arrowed to do alot of other stuff as well.. maybe to those on top of me, they feel that i need to recover for lost time.. haha..
nvm, let's move on to the main topic.. it was fun, serious fun.. i shant talk much about the whole exercise, but i can tell you, the americans were darn crazy.. either they fly super low that u can see the pilots, wave at them, or even throw a stone up and can hit them while they are flying, or they fly at speeds where we were trying super hard to even catch them in our aiming sight.. it was awe initially, shock later, and monotony at the end.. the planes were flaring and it was like watching fireworks all over again, except that it is in daytime.. come on, lets face the obvious truth.. i feel that spore pilots are too safety conscious.. u dun get to see all these back home..
when there is time to enjoy, we really enjoyed.. cashing in on the currency, we shopped in lop buri, shopped in sara buri and even as we were about to leave, there were still more last min shopping.. some of us ended up using our cards, cuz the amount of money that we changed before coming here were too little for our spending limits.. dom sum it up the best.. he said that he was not suprised that if all of us were to walk out and have a battery outing, all of us would wear either an addidas shirt or a FBT singlet..
the things were simply summed up by one word: CHEAP!!
we also went to the night market and it was huge.. spore is nothing compared to there.. it took me just half an hour to finish walking the whole market.. spore one can be done in 10 to 15 mins.. it was just plain walking without any stopping.. after that the bargaining starts and i dare say we were prob the guys who shopped the most throughout the whole 2 weeks.. the size and the amount of bags that we brought home were simply more than people from other units.. haha..
of cuz to top it off, we made the personnels from other units pissed simply because we woke them up early in the morning, played football and making alot of noise while the others were having breakfast, and to top it off, sleep while the others were trying to move their stuff back into the containers..
we finished packing the night before.. haha..
prob tt sums up my trip to thailand..
received sH msg regarding my last post.. din expect her to even msg me in the first place.. but with a bad timing.. i was in a meeting.. everytime she msg me out of her own will, i will always be in meeting.. haha.. thx for the encouraging msg, tt is if u are reading this post..
