Most people, when they arrive in thailand, are getting into holiday mode, enjoying the warm sunshine, sitting in a tuktuk wondering if they're getting ripped off, studying their lonely planet and figuring out which islands they're headed for. 

Then there's idiots like me who get into bangkok and immediately start worrying about finishing and submitting their assignment, doing the laundry, removing rotting food from the fridge, looking at coursebooks (help! students are back on monday!) and eventually remembering that it's hours and hours past midnight and it's probably a good idea to lie down.

It's times like these that I need to remind myself of the reason I moved here in the first place.

RELAAAAAAC!
