Jane is sad....
She didn't get a chance to interview for Fulbright scholarship...
She didn't know why she's not qualified...
She wants to thank Simple American for helping her with essays...
But...
She doesn't give up...
She will apply for other scholarships...
And of course she may need Simple American's help again....
Hehehehe...

Pet (fish) shop
The other day (I don't remember what day!), I went to Thonglor Sky train station and I saw this man at the corner of the street. He was selling fishes and turtles and some water plants.
Isn't that cool?
Here in Thailand, you can buy your pet at any street corner!
As you're on the way to the pub, walking on the street, thinking 'Let's have some beers tonight' and then! Oh! Turtle! How lovely! Let me get one turtle before going for some beers!
Yes....You can.

Sagano ramen
Last week Lin and I went to a ramen place here in Soi Thonglor because I told her many days ago that I really wanted to have ramen!!! and I just tried a new ramen shop near my house, they just open 1 day before! I wasn't impressed with that ramen shop at all and I kept thinking I need very good ramen... ramen... please...I need ramen! *I think it's a part of PMS*
So Lin suggested me this restaurant in Soi Thonglor 13 where there are many Japanese restaurants in this street, it's called "nihonmura" or Japanese village. I will try other restaurants and will tell you about them later!
Today as I told you earlier, we came with one thing in mind... "Ramen", I did some research about good ramen shops in Bangkok and there are 2 famous one which are Ramentei and Yamagoya ramen. Yamagoya is actually located in nihonmura too (to be more specific, it is right next to the shop I had my ramen!!) and I wanted to try but Lin told me to try "Sagano" because they serve more choices of ramen soup.
Walked into shop, the waitress came to us and said the tables were full, and we had to wait for while. Ok... no problem, and we waited.
I didn't know how long we had waited as I was busy talking with Lin and also deleting contacts from my sim card at the same time... we got a big table!
I had a hard time making decision on the soup... there are 4 choices... I wanted to try the white soup but it will come with special portion and a little more expensive, so I decided to have miso chashu ramen.... hmmm.... a little bit too salty for me but what I care most is the ramen...the noodle! and their noodle was good!
We ordered some more things... Lin didn't have breakfast, so she was a little hungry. She ordered salad and gyoza for share and a cold ramen for herself. Look like dessert to me!!! I don't know what it's called... but I don't need to know cuz I am royalty to hot ramen with nice soup, well I can say for me... chashu ramen only!!!
Finished the ramen... I was happy... Having good food really makes me think how lucky I am to be in this world... or how lucky I am to be in Thailand... there are so many good food here... and not too expensive. I love being in Thailand... love it!
So... what should I have for breakfast tomorrow?!?

My favourite Killing time games!
"Have you ever felt so bored?"
I guess the answer is "Yes!"
"What do you do when you're bored?"
I guess there are many answers...
For me... I like to do many things depending on my mood...
Sleeping <--- Yeah... so what? I'm bored...and I don't want to do anything! So I sleep! My favourite thing to do when I'm bored...
Watching TV <--- Sometimes it makes me bored even more as there is nothing interesting on TV
Reading <--- Anything that I can read..book, newspaper, menu, dictionary, advertising billboard, food tag, brochure...anything
Playing game <--- I have a Game boy advance, game boy micro and PC games... That's what I'm going to tell you today! My favourite games!
I will tell only PC games as I have 296 IN 1 for my Game boy... but I only play a few of them! I'm an old fashioned, still play Tetris, Super Mario, Dr. Mario, Ninja Kage, Ice climber, Battle City, Bomber man and B-Wings.
My favourite PC games...
My first game on PC that kept me up all night... I still remember that time.... I was using my brother's PC as we shared a studio room in an apartment. I was a freshman in university. That time I was playing from a diskette..boot from drive A:, it was a yellow diskette! I loved it!
SimFarm -- Love it! I still have it here on my PC! I play it sometimes when I'm really bored!
Around the same time that I'd got SimFarm, I got another game which is similar to SimFarm... well... you probably know what kind of games I like! as it's the same concept!!! This one I was really addicted to! I played it all day and all night! And yes.. I just installed it on my PC!!! and I can't stop playing it!!!
Transport Tycoon -- I always choose the color scheme 'light blue' and build my HQ in the biggest city!
This game I know through my roommate, Ying. We shared the room when we were in senior year in university. She brought her PC in and we all shared that PC for school work and also entertainment. That's how she introduced me to her favourite game which became mine as well.
Starcraft -- I liked playing as Zerg, it's an alien empire... I don't like playing as a human. It's not so fun! Being an alien that destroys human is a lot more fun! Don't you think so?
When I worked for MTV Thailand, I worked from 10 am. to 7 pm. but I always did a carpool with my colleagues and we normally went back home around 9-10 p.m. when the live programs are over. What did I do while waiting? Playing games! There were 2 favourite games that I played at MTV, sometimes my boss came to see why I looked so serious staring at the monitor which I didn't do when I was working.
1. Heroes of Might and Magic III -- I only had HOMM 3 at that time... I wished I could play multiplayer mode but with a pirate one, I couldn't.
2. Emperor: Rise of the Middle Kingdom -- Another friend also named Ying introduced me to this game, she is the queen of this kind of strategy game. I know Pharaoh, Caesar and this game from her. I used to stay overnight in her apartment and played the game on her PC all night until sunrise! That's how addicted I was to this game.
The last game for today is the most recent favourite game of mine, I am not good enough in this game yet but I will improve my skills... I will...I promise! I got this one on DVD, the quality is very good. I upgraded my video card for my PC because I wanted to play 3D games... and this game is the reason I did that!
City Life -- More options than SimCity, nicer graphic but I'm still learning how to make my city growing and running my city smoothly and wealthy.
Oh........ I'm bored now! Really bored! That means it's time to do something! Playing a game!!!!! I gotta go now.... I have to harvest my strawberries and sell off my fat cows!!!
I guess the answer is "Yes!"

When the sun goes down
Sun tanned toes ticklin the sand
cold drink chillin in my right hand
watchin you sleep in the evenin light
restin up for a long, long night
cuz when the sun goes down
we'll be groovin
when the sun goes down
we'll be feelin alright
when the sun sinks down over the water
everything gets hotter when the sun goes down
Yeah
all day long just takin' it easy
layin in a hammock where it's nice and breezy
and sleepin off the night before
cuz when the sun goes down we'll be back for more
when the sun goes down
we'll be groovin
when the sun goes down we'll be feelin alright
when the sun sinks down over the water
everything gets hotter when the sun goes down
this old guitar and my dark sunglasses
this sweet concoction is smooth as molasses
nothing to do but breathe all day
until the big moon rises and it's time to play
when the sun goes down
we'll be groovin
when the sun goes down we'll be feelin alright
when the sun sinks down
sinks down over the water
everything gets hotter
when the sun goes down
when the sun goes down
when the sun goes down
we'll be groovin
when the sun goes down
we'll be feelin alright
when the sun sinks down over the water
everything gets hotter
when the sun goes down
Yeah
When the sun goes down
we'll be groovin
when the sun goes down we'll be feelin alright
when the sun sinks down over the water
everything gets hotter
when the sun goes down
when the sun goes down
we'll be groovin
when the sun goes down we'll be feelin alright
when the sun sinks down over the water
she thinks Kracker's sexy when the sun goes down
we'll be feelin alright when the sun sinks down
over the water
Uncle kenny's hotter when the sun goes down
when the sun goes down
we'll be groovin
when the sun goes down
hey uncle kenny
when the sun goes down over the water
everything gets hotter
when the sun goes down
