H-O-M-E and W-O-R-K

Hey Hey....

Hello Everyone. I'm here, already at home. It was a tiring, excited, exhausted, talkative, fun, and impressive journey. I met a friend on the flight and we had a flight-long chat which made my books useless eventually. A flight attendant was so kind and funny. She treated me very well, with extra foods and lovely business-class croissants (I was in economy class.). But I couldn't help counting down to the touch-down in Bangkok. I was so excited to be home after being away for a year!

I went to meet people at the Ministry and was given a shocking news. I'm allowed only 5 days to take a rest and I have to start working very soon. It means sometime around next week, and I decided on Thursday. Yes, next Thursday my working life will begin.

Definitely I'll be appointed to be in the division of South Asia which is a section in the Department of South Asia, Middle East and Africa. I may have to be temporarily work in the Department of Protocol for 6 months since next year we have a big project of 60 reigning years of the King. It's gonna be very tough and tiring job, and, definitely, fantastic moment!

Yingshan, thanks for the update. As usual, it's always fun to read about what happens to you. For everybody, I miss you and I hope I'll be able to meet you in Bangkok very soon. I have no regret in saying goodbye to everyone because I know, in the age of globalisation, to meet up is not difficult anymore. See you soon.
