BKk

*Hoot* *Hooooooooooot*

The fog horn blows as another ship leaves Port Klong Toey.

My condo overlooks the Bangkok port and I see everynight, cranes picking up cargos' and transferring them onboard for shipment. Its beautiful at night, with the lights orangey blending together the yellowness of the giant cranes. After a long day at the office, I come back, put on some music and glance out the balcony of this. Everynight. Moments before crashing out till the very next morning.

Work has been hectic. The company's expanding and I'm glad to be playing a keyrole in it heading north. I'm actually heading the business development department, and smiled when it was given to me as its also the same position as my brother, Shanne's.
We're presently busy preparing for the trade show coming up in a fortnight's time. We're expecting some interested multinational companies dropping by to visit our booths, so one can imagine the preparations for such an event.

At any rate, things are looking fine at the moment. Enjoying the challenges being thrown at. Kinda miss home, as in family, dogs Austin & Sandy, friends, and the simplicity that is so abundant in Penang. Pace of Bangkok life is perfect for my age, as some would prefer the term yuppies. Funny thing is, I always lose myself when in a restaurant with clients or dinner meetings. I'd look at their decos, tables, chairs, cutlery, waiters appearance, service, quality, comfortness...and I'd zap back again into reality.

When I've build up this company, I shall...no, I will open up another restaurant. And here I thought the F&B spirit had died...Cheers to the future.
