I didnt think Ill be blogging so soon, but here I am in transit at Bangkok airport for 2 and a half hours. I didnt have a restful sleep on the plane because I was busy playing Tetris and watching movies..ooops. I ended up watching Bourne Supremacy and the Notebook (John, yess it was good and it made me teary hehe). I WAS feeling tired but the moment I walked into the transit/lounge area I was all alert again. Its hard not to be with the bright lights, lots and lots of people, and the shops. Goodness, this airport is so busy at midnight!

Oh, I forgot to mention when I flew the domestic flight from Melbourne to Sydney yesterday I was halted at the security section. I was like ?!?!?!? Then they told me they found a fork in my laptop bag!!! haha whew, it wasn't a knife..then Ill look like a real terrorist. Actually, this has happened before on my last flight also. ANd yes, it was a fork AND it was in my laptop. If you are wondering why, its because I bring my lunch to Uni most days. haha

As everyone knows, I leave EVERYTHING to the last minute. I know..its reallyyy bad. ahhh. So I obviously left my packing again to the last hour before we left for the airport. I hardly brought anything with me! In my main bag were just my sleeping bag, one trackie pants, a long sleeve top, undergarments, and toiletries. This was contrasted by heaps of drugs I brought (gastrolytes, stomach pains, imodium, panadol, doxy). Oh and my contact lens and solution, anti-bacterial gel and my cannot-do-without Wet ones.
The good thing that came out from packing light meant I didnt have to take on baord the 14kg bag of books! I was able to check that in along with my personal bag(amazingly, my own bag weighed a mere 8 kg). The bad thing is I forgot other essentials..namely a TOWEL! so after I get off the net, Im going to have to comb through this airport to find a towel.
