| Three Day Weekend Blues |
|
I never thought I'd see the day where I woke up on a Monday to remember I have a three day weekend, and wish I could go into work. Well, that day is today!!
Keeping myself busy for two days of the weekend has been hard enough, but now I have a third day, I'm stuck for ideas, I'm contemplating spending the day in my room, watching movies and doing to language practice and maybe even having more sleep ready for the week!
I could go out, I need more bits and pieces for the house so I could go to the hypermarket and shop there. I could go up to the old town and see the monkeys and explore the shops/streets take the lonely planet and see what's going on up there. I could go out and eat lunch or dinner, I could go to the movies. But all these things are far more fun done with a friend. Yesterday I did the day of wandering around on my own, today I can't be bothered!
Thankfully there is plenty that needs doing in my new place, so I can hide away from the world in here and still feel like I'm being productive.
I guess the loneliness is always going to be an element of moving somewhere new alone, and to be honest I'm not unhappy, I can see that I will have friends, after only a week at work I'm getting on really well with our Thai team teachers, we will soon be gettting some more western teachers in, Vow, one of the Thai staff is going to be moving in my apartment block, Kung lives just up the road. So, things will be OK, things will be better than OK. Once I have a bit of Thai I will feel more confident to go out and be able to speak to people.
So for today, its going to be me, the tv, computer and not a lot else!!!
