วันแรกในเมืองไทย First day in bkk

I stay in a rather big room at Victory Monument, อนุสาวรีย์ชัยสมรภูมิ. The rental is 14000baht per month with room cleaning service once a week. Jianwei, my friend from ntu stays here too! We can go to school together and we are going to share an iron. He is going to teach me how to iron my uniform. This place is really accessible too, just like my home at Thomson. Many many buses. I can take bus 551 to the airport, bus 36 to school, bus 538 to dreamworld which is outside Bangkok. BTS is nearby too. Many food stalls selling all kinds of food and dessert along the street where I stay. And there is a park where I jog with old men. It has a running path of 700m with markings at every 100m. That's my home @507 Apartment(:
My room on the first day. HAHA. Looks quite messy already.

We went to Khao San, ถนนข้าวสาร on our first night at Bangkok. The taxi drive drove us in circles and it cost us about 200+baht to get there when we onlyactually needed to pay 60baht. He was probably irritated with us because he kept persuading us to go to siam square instead of KS because he thinks that KS is too dangerous.

"welcome to khao san. with yummie paht thai"

Mysterious and freaky woman who was lying on the streets of KS with alcohol and cigarettes. She was also chanting something about "Lord Jesus, have mercy....", "Colours of the rainbow, red, blue, yellow..."
