On the Title

Roi-Et a.k.a. "101" is a city in the northeast of Thailand. I spent more than "One Night in Bangkok," and was on my way to Roi-Et. It wasn't my final destination in Thailand, but the place where I grew the most. I gained a tolerance for spicy food, and learned a little dialect called Essan-- a mixture of Laos and Thai. I learned that it's not the destination but the journey that matters. Just as random as my adventures were in Thailand, so is my life--it's like living in L.A. (oh by the way L.A. is another nickname for Roi-Et).

Netflix Is a Very Bad Thing. . . For Me

For People like me Netflix is a very bad thing. Last week sometime, I discovered a show called Veronica Mars. After the first episode I was hooked. Blast those cliffhangers! I've basically been watching it nonstop--before bed, when I wake up. When I'm not at home, by my computer, I'm wishing I was so I could watch the next episode, and find out what really happened to Lily Kane. It's gotten to the point where Veronica Mars was in my dream.

This summer I planned on getting caught up on my reading and superseding my (too-low-set) goal for the year. (My goal is 12 books, I was looking forward to reading at least that this summer!) But no, I'm craving Veronica Mars. Before Veronica, I was watching Psych, what can I say I'm a sucker for snarky detectives.

Why am I obsessed with Netflix--I can watch episode after episode without waiting a week, and the perkiest perk of all, no commercials. I've also watched a few movies. So what is a girl like me (a girl who loves movies and tv) to do when Netflix is tempting me? Addictions can be such a waste of time, and so is writing this post.
