when is a good time for deeper looks inside yourself?
if a bargirl of questionable gender grabs your ass with the pickup line 'are you gaaaaaay?'

chef de cuisine
April 15, 2007
spent the day at the thai cooking school (partly to escape songkran... i've seen the whole water thing now)
and damn.. 750 baht very well spent! 6 dishes to cook yourself and you can watch the others doing 6 different ones... and you can eat everything! yummi that was tasty
now i just have to do my thai massage crashcourse and my off-business cv will be bling bling - kidding
was great fun and i hope i can still cook it back home... the ingredients are probably the biggest problem though :)

chronicle of a night out in chiang mai
April 15, 2007
decide to go clubbing - bubble gets recommended, bubble is my plan
20:00
dressing up, i look like a walking dollar bill (1usd rather than 100, but still)
21:00
walk from the guesthouse to town, ready to kill anyone throwing water around.
21:30
dumbass tourists throw water around - decide not to kill them as they would kick my ass before
22:00
one hour walking around the bargirls-bar district. i got whistled after, grabbed, etc. feel sexy before i realize that i'm a farang
22:15
find bubble, 3 hot thai girls at the entrance, decide to like it. ask if people are inside, answer is yes. 3 people inside, nerd with 2 thai girls. hate the bouncer, probably still smiling
22:30
200 baht and 2 drink coupons later i sit in front of the television and watch a soccer game i'm not interested in.
22:45
sitting around me: gay looking farang, mama with her for-sale daughters, two bargirls smiling at me constantly. decide to miss chona and concentrate on the last minutes of the soccer game
23:00
it's getting busy, the normal people arrive. soccer game finished, i cry
23:05
gay looking farang chats me up. apparently not gay as he is french and is looking for "thai pussy" and lost his friend. he decides i'm his new friend and tells me his life story. i want to kill myself
23:10
he is still talking. i check the options around me and decide to sit tight for some minutes
23:15
can't take it anymore.
24:00
found all clubbing archetypes: the indian guy grabbing all girls (unlike in the uk without leather jacket), the kickboxing midget, the slut, the working girl, the cool guy, the hot blonde, the girl next door, the alternative girl, the business big shot, the local, the expat, the tourist, the sextourist, the underage, the overage, the arrogant girl, the easy girl, the bodybuilder, the nerd, the teen girl, the drug addict
01:00
after hip hop, reggeaton, house they play trance now. swear to myself never again tourist clubs
02:00
drum n bass and time to go home. did not touch a single girl - i blame chona. got my ass grabbed, tickled, stroked by bargirls on my way out. decide that i still have more respect for them than the slutty us girl.
02:10
decide to walk home and ask myself if i don't value my life and money anymore
02:20
regret walking home. still got life & money but 10 stray dogs on my ass
02:30
home again! 6 hours to cooking class pickup time. i feel old
