Little Lebanon.

- decide to have a walk for lunch. head for cheap shawarma. (as opposed to yesterdays which was ingenius - a bit of curry in the tahini sauce, yum! & stuffed in a fat pita rather than rolled in a thin one - and excellent - chunks rather than slivers of tasty beef - but expensive)

- walk 32 blocks to find a tucked-away little area down Sukhumvit

- see rows of silvery steel shishas shining in the sun

- pass a black and white egyptian restaurant

- see Muslim men knelt down in prayer, their heads close to the ground

- see rows of colored glass shishas sitting in the shade

- suddenly worry if it's some sort of taboo for a single woman to be walking around in a muslim area

- look around, am only single woman walking around alone

- head for open shawarma stand, previously empty, now swarming with big, burly men

- decide not hungry

- take BTS back to comfort zone

- comfort myself for being a coward by having ice cream

This morning, i decided to do a video work-out rather than go jogging in the park (Emporium's right beside Benchasiri. huge, fountains and such, doves you can feed. very pleasant).
and last night, rather than going to a Mexican filmfest as i had planned, i watched American Idol (i missed Lost).
i'm afraid i might simply live out the three months just staying in my apartment watching cable every night!
(Bons, tuwing kelan nga ba ang House?)

eep, sana 'wag. good luck na lang sakin over the weekend.
