ahh... thailand was great! khai and i took train up to thailand during the march hols... stopped over at langkawi to dive 4 a day. freaky man, train ride was like 32 hours, all the way to bangkok.
but i was totally worth it, i'd forgotten how alive thailand is. been in singapore for too damn long... s'pore is like the city with no soul, you know... when u go to other places like bangkok, london or even KL, u can see how different its is.
the diving was what i went there for though...
when u get into the ocean, its like a totally different world, u actually envy the fish for being able to live there. it's beautiful, the colours just draw you in, u wish u could stay there forever. for all of you who don't dive, i really think you should try it at least once. everyone should dive at least once in your life, it's an experience you'll never forget.
evryone was damn worried when i said i was going to thailand, but see, i'm not DEAD! the protests weren't that bad, but i guess i wouldn't know, i went to bangkok for a day only... spent most of my time in Khao Lak... can't tell you how much i missed the place. it's the first time i went back since the tsunami, it's quite different now... still overun by 'angmoh's' but what the hell, almost all of asia's that way... yep... i had a great holiday, really wish i could have stayed on.

my next backpacking trip is gonna be in june... probably going to vietnam and Laos... anyone wanna come?
