buddha Posted December 17, 2007 Report Share Posted December 17, 2007 HI posters. I have relocated to my home country - america. NYC to be exact. I have assimilated to a normal lifestyle here in holiday time and doing quite well. I got a job immediately. The IT industry here is BANGING. I was offered interview after interview and found a position that suited my skillset quite easily. Apartments in NYC are really competitive but I sewed that one up in less than two days time. Two small victories on the way toward normalacy. But you and I know better know don't we? My life isn't at all like it was when I last posted. I am feeling fresh and full of life after months in India, Nepal, Bangladesh, Pakistan, and Iran....quite a learning experience and a good way to breal up time spent in the LOS and a 'predictable' lifestle in the USA. Boredom and run of the mill stuff is actually reassuring and in the midst of holiday time there is plenty of it. Junglesoup I hope you are well I cannot thank you enough for the wake up call. Perhaps that isn't the best way to relate that but it is honest. I hope everyone is enjoying themselves and concentrating on what is important to them. ahhhh how life changes.....

bibblies Posted December 17, 2007 Report Share Posted December 17, 2007 Unlike the others, I think this is sad news. Who wants a 'normal' life? There are too many 'normal' people already, talking about the weather and shit. Get back to the girls, drink and drugs, buddha! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YimSiam Posted December 17, 2007 Report Share Posted December 17, 2007 HI posters. I have relocated to my home country - america. NYC to be exact. ... ahhhh how life changes..... And yet how it so often stays the same... Best of luck, buddha -- I'm with you, bibblies that there's a lot of fun (and possibly good postings) from the wild life, but i also understand buddha's satisfaction with the new life. It's a good feeling, like coming up for air and getting those first few breaths... But... is a subway ride to a tech job in a lonely city/an apartment on an anonymous block/cold winter winds and the stink of garbage in the summer/etc, etc, enough to fill that unfillable void? NYC... buddha, that city kicked my f*cking ass, by the way - I scurried out of town with my tail between my legs after three years of wild, destructive run-of-the-mill boredom and madness... Went and 'recovered' in Bangkok for a couple years, though that eventually went a touch south too, I suppose (what kind of moron thinks he can get his shit back together in Bangkok)... Hang in there, like Bangkok that's a tough place to keep your nose clean, I hope to see you post of your boring, normal, so-called life every once in a while - though not too often, yeah? It's f*cking boring, after all. Now a good old-fashioned tale of a magnificent crash-and-burn ala Icarus, on the other hand... Just kidding...

I think that very sentence every time you describe Patpong as being anything other than the shithole it is. Were you joking there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
