The neighborhood

Since the weather has been very kind the past 2 days, i thought i'd take you on a little pictorial journey of my surroundings. Where my sister and i live is very beautiful and central to practically everywhere [apparently it's in the posh side of town - oooOooer Miss Fancy Pants].

But we have yet to put up our curtains and so we are making use of IKEA's packing paper and cardboard and taping them up to the glass to guard us from possible peeping toms and nosy parkers - Yes i know how ghetto rite??? oh well. But we are very lucky to have such a great place with a nice land lady AND the rent is affordable considering the location.

allie: Oh it is. And now that the weather is getting better, i'm so looking forward to being outdoors. Yesterday was beautiful at 19˚C and we had the windows open, so it was great to have some fresh air in the flat. Gone are those air-conditioned days!

Well i hope you're settling in well in BKK and i read that Miss Sashamonster has 2 little friends. How cute.

Take care too... and miss you! *hugs*

msredd: Very much so... it's even nicer when the sun is out to play. *smiles*

Yea, i've noticed that my hair growth has sped up in recent weeks. Interesting. Hmmm... but i must say i am enjoying the beer... and the occasional champagne very much so... it's about the same price as a non-alcoholic drink.

So cheers i say! *hiccups*
