last April 12-15, 2006, Thailand has celebrated its new year. Its called Songkran. Its a water festival. i have heard a lot of stories about it. i just cant believe everything ive heard is true. so, because im a first timer, we went to Khao San Road on the first day of the festival. It is a place where all the people go and do nothing but to splash water to other people (as in cold water) and put some mud in your face and body. it was so much fun. i really enjoyed it eventhough we get tired of walking so long. every new experience is really enjoyable. and it is quite an unforgettable experience. its very nice to see all those people, whatever nationality, whatever language, whatever skin color, doing the same thing. everyone is acceptable. no exemptions. no discriminations. and from the stories ive heard from the "veterans", foreigners are really looking forward to this event. well, its very different from the "San Juan" we had in the Philippines. because here, no one gets annoyed if you get wet. eventhough you are in a nice attire during those times. to sum it up, it was really fun. fun, fun, fun... :D we've got some pics of it. see and enjoy!
"Voilà! In view, a humble vaudevillian veteran, cast vicariously as both victim and villain by the vicissitudes of Fate. This visage, no mere veneer of vanity, is it vestige of the vox populi, now vacant, vanished, as the once vital voice of the verisimilitude now venerates what they once vilified. However, this valorous visitation of a by-gone vexation, stands vivified, and has vowed to vanquish these venal and virulent vermin vanguarding vice and vouchsafing the violently vicious and voracious violation of volition. The only verdict is vengeance; a vendetta, held as a votive, not in vain, for the value and veracity of such shall one day vindicate the vigilant and the virtuous. Verily, this vichyssoise of verbiage veers most verbose vis-à-vis an introduction, and so it is my very good honor to meet you and you may call me V."have watched it the other night... well, what can i say? aaahhmmm... it just keeps me awake for almost two and a half hours, eventhough we got the last full show slot which started at 9:50pm. such an interesting film. not just a cheesy movie with a lead man in a mask. there's something deep within. it's not just how they have done the movie technically, not just the action stunts, not just the love story, but its how they have made the character... yah, they have been very successful in making the viewers love the characters of the movie. you will care for them as if, you are one of them. and politically wise, i think government leaders should watch it. it's like saying "hey, if you are thinking that your position makes you a real leader, well you better think twice." people won't listen to you just because you are there. they would listen to someone who has a purpose... someone who has an unusual integrity... someone who will care about them... for real.i still have the hangover of it...so maybe you should see it for yourself... really, after watching it, i've got two thumbs up!if you want something new, try this one.... two thumbs up!
