A very short holiday in Thailand


Aaah, Thailand was great. But time just flew by and now I'm suffering from a back to work-depression (hard!). Exam mode hasn't really kicked in yet, I'm just playing around with my sites and hoping I will get some actual work done ...

What did we do in Thailand? Well, apart from a quick food poisoning and getting the worst sunburn EVER on my sitting utilities, it was a really cool trip, so many people live in Thailand and it's crowded everywhere you go (especially since it was the New Year water festival), 35 degrees and 95 % humidity, 30 degrees in the water and cheap food and beer (and it's important to eat salty snacks when you're sweating so much, too), colorful fish, birds and plants and the opportunity to do absolutely nothing because you're on holiday. Was good to spend some time with the BF as well, a couple of weeks before we left I realized we hadn't spent this many days together in a row in nearly two years, so I was a little worried we might get on each other's nerves, but we were OK!

Now I should get some work done. I mean now. OK, now. I'll have some dinner, and then I'll start. Right after that. Or a nap. I'll just finish this. And read this magazine. And then I'll start. Immediately.

No, I haven't forgotten my blog ...

I have just neglected it for 4 months. A quick summary: NYE was great, In january I went to do some couchsurfing in Tallinn (very shitty weather, but cool), February and March have really been just work and no play - work is ridiculously busy now and I'm going to Thailand Monday in a week (I guess most of you might have heard that already). I'm working on some new sites and have a plan to do a makeover for my Oslo site, but after Thailand it's the exam (last one!), which is on my birthday. And before that I'm going to Valencia (but I haven't really had much time to practice my Spanish) and end of May off to Deutschland for work meetings and after THAT a weekend in Paris. Then I need to rest a few weeks before I go on holiday in Arendal when the BF is back.

Right now there's a party in our flat and I'm supposed to be working, but seems the scheduled background work starts at 2200 and devours all performance. I'm really sleepy, so I should just go to bed and read a little in my Shakespeare conspiracy book, which is really cool. A little confusing, but cool.

Yeah, I'm going to bed. I'll try to only neglect the blog for a week or two this time. maybe I'll post some Thailand pictures!

'night ...
