Of lemongrass n dusit

Another is a very random post. Last night, before I go to bed, I slather on the body lotion that I took from the hotel on my feet last night,

Do you know if u put lotion on your feet and then wear socks to sleep, u will have smooth heels the next day? It prevents you from having this ugly, hideous crack heels and u can wear those fancy shoes,

Anyways, the smell of lemongrass from the lotion reminds me of dusit thani, the place that I always stay in Bangkok. The friendly welcome “sawasdee” from the entrance of the lobby smells of lemongrass, the 5-star service that I’ve been spoilt of, the variety of western and eastern breakfast when you open your eyes, the endless room service that I can call…
Now Bangkok is just not that save to travel and I have been bumming a lot at home….

I forgot how to make my sheets when I wake up,

I forgot to boil water because I need it for coffee,

I forgot to do my laundry and forgot to sent them,

I forgot that newspaper does not deliver to my room,

I forgot that I need to buy juices to stock up my fridge,

I forgot that I need to on the heater and that there are no new fresh towels in my shower,

I forgot so many stuff,

I forgot that I am back at home…

Being back at home, I didn’t realize how much I been taking for granted of the services that I had in the hotel, now it seems that doing all this tiny little stuff takes quite some of my time , but then again all this errands that I’ve done makes me realize that the services provided are equally important and doing it myself, I learn to appreciate the tiny stuff that my mum have always done for me and everyone back at home . Everything was also washed, cleaned and put back into the place so we children could easily find them. My mum did not have housekeeping department or room service; she was the chef, the cleaner, the designer, the baker, the driver, the HOME MAKER.

Coming bac home, it’s like being in dusit,your mum does everything for, home is where the heart is and it will certainly smell of lemongrass too,well ..because slathering on lotion from dusit is going to last for quite some time too..

a new member in my family..

having live with seven has not been an easy task, especially when there are five ladies in the house, my sister is trying to strike a balance now by recruiting another male species ...

with three rooms already occupied upstairs and almost spilling over, one could imagine how we could fit another member back here in my mother's place. It's been a few weeks now and i think we are getting adapted to the newest member in our family already..

how can we not welcome a cute member in our family, my sister has been a proud mother and by all the research she is doing, one should give her credit for preparing to give our newest member much comfort with every tiny -detailed little stuff ...

behold.... our cutest member and also a superstar in the house now

CHUBBY PAK...!

PAK.. is his last name...because that's what we call him, also what everyone in the house calls him, he has been quite famous now, everyday mostly, in different time of the day...

I am not a pet lover myself because i just like to play with them but hate responsibility and commitment, but one can't help looking at chubby because he'll cheer you up by doing some really funny faces and some funky moves....
