Date and time: too early on Monday morning. In fact I think anything that can be classified as "Monday morning" is automatically too early.
Location: work, 101 collins
Feeling: sleepy, i don't wanna work...

Weekend: Bought pretty shoes (there goes the saving...), had dinner at Trotters, had dinner at Taxi and had dinner at a crappy Korean place after we couldn't get a table at the Japanese restaurant we were aiming for.

I have no profound thoughts at this moment. I am a bit unhappy with the fact of it being Monday morning. I am also waiting for a call from my boss for the week - to find out what I'm doing this week etc... I remember there was some reason that i wanted to write something on my blog (ie an actual topic I wanted to cover) but that's gone.

Europe: Met some very interesting people especially at European Peace University and the Romanian Peace Institute. Some of them just really blew me away. Many of them are in Non-violent Peaceforce and UN Peace Force. So they all scatter around the world in conflict regions (eg Africa, Sri Lanka, Middle East, Burma). It was mind expanding to say the least. Watch out, I may become a peacenik :)

I am also contemplating the Stanford deadline and thinking that it's just not going to happen. I'm going to give it a shot, but .... I am thinking I should just go for second round. I need a reference from Denis as well and the due date is on the same day as his wedding. I'm thinking that's going to be tricky.

So yeah...I'm scheduled for Bangkok - except it keeps getting pushed back. That's not unusual, but I worry I'll get staffed on something else and won't get to know. Well, actually, I think "worry" is probably too active of a word. I guess it's just would be nice to have certainty so that I could arrange my affairs - I decided to move out of my apartment if I end up in Bangkok. So I'm just waiting for confirmation...

No other news from me I think! I'm on the beach for the first time in more than 12 months I think... I'm a bit confused by the concept and I think my roommates (of which there are now 5 since their boyfriends moved in!) are a bit confused by me being home...
