A new beginning?

A new beginning?

Hey all,
It’s been a while since I have posted something. I was busy shopping and packing for Thailand. Now I have finally reached here and I am sooooo very happy. Obviously, it’s south EAST ASIA (nevermind south, “east” is enough for me 😉)

It doesn’t feel like a foreign country. There are a lot of Indian families here. Language is becoming a little problem though, the English pronunciation of Thai people is very different. But they all are very nice and are teaching me the language. Today only, I got a lot of homework for my language lessons. To tell you the truth, even if I know the phrases very well, it’s still awkward, somehow, to greet them in their language. But they are very supporting in this regard. When I speak some phrase, they laugh, get elated on my attempt and then correct me. It’s a fun procedure – not to dig into internet or mobile apps but rather learn from native speakers. Ah! My lifelong dream is coming true!

My trainer is very enthusiastic and sweet lady and is very excited to have us (me and one other batchmate) as trainees under her. Also, I am the first girl from our college here. Hehe, feels so great!

So, they have provided me with a nice accommodation, a fully furnished flat just for me (I may have roommates in future but right now it’s only mine, MINE!). There is an AC car to take us everyday to and fro (till now. Soon we’ll get our cycles and that’s good since I don’t like special treatments). And, there is proper veg Indian food (lucky no?). But with facilities comes responsibility (Is that even a quote?) – responsibility of behaving properly (I am very good at that) and excelling at work. That means, even if I screwed up my acads, I have to perform well here (oh well, this is only chance left to increase my CGPA).

The most amusing thing is that even if I am a shy person I am trying to communicate with people (Thai only, I still can’t bring myself to talk to seniors, oops, they are my batchmates only, from India. I keep repeating in my head what to say but by the time I gather courage to speak, they are nowhere to be found!). Even so, I am surprising myself!
Oh! Oh! And the awesome internet speed! The speed which my laptop shows here is 1GBps! I told my friends and they were like “OMG” and “Holy Shit!” (In India the speed shown is 100MBps and it’s far lower than that). I wonder when I go back to India, if I’ll keep cursing the Indian speeds. Now my only two problems are:
– Where is the dustbin?
– Windows 8, why did you take this awesome thing called wi-fi from my laptop away? Now the only choice left for me is to access net on my phone TT_TT . But these are solvable (Phew!)

And the two things I am excited about are:
-K-pop concerts (if any happens during my stay here and the ticket is within my limits)
-AnimeCons ( I hope I get enough info on time)

I’ll keep posting about my stay here at Thailand and show you places where I’ll go (I’m not trying to turn this into a travel blog but I would like to show you Thailand from my perspective). A lot of pics are on their way……

I think I have written enough for now. Recommendations about concerts, conventions and places, which are a must see but not mentioned in books and not known by many people, are most welcome.

See you soon with another story!

PS – Pardon the mistakes, I am posting this from my phone.

Edit: 06 July 2013 : Alright, I got net in my laptop for the first time in about 2 months. And because I’m happy, I’ll post this happy happy song :
