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).

This month the movie Anonymous comes out. It's about Shakespeare's authorship. My opinion--William Shakespeare wrote it all (take that Oxford). The movie looks compelling & I am for sure going to see it!The link is to a Stephen Colbert video, it's hilarious, interviewing Stephen Greenblatt, America's Shakespeare expert (he's like the Olivier & Branagh of the academic world), during the interview they compare McCain & Obama to Shakespeare characters.
