Extended weekend is now coming to an end… Already? Yeah, already.
I didn't know that I would come to close this time with quite down feeling.
Had some business meeting in the afternoon as planned. Though…

Turned out to be not something that we should deal with.

Totally out of scope it is. No luxury to go after. That's what I am thinking.
Otherwise, we forget what we need to do for time being. Hahaha.



This memo is produced from the mall visit in this boring.
Yeah, this is quote. That can be come to my shopping list?
Maybe. Hahaha.

Well, hope tomorrow things will be much better than to day. Truly.
Plus, peace would come in so soon. Hahaha.

Almost went to see "The Dark Knight Rises" once again… since nothing to do.
Though, one disturbance… heavy rain.







The rain really kept me inside. Never wanted to get wet.
I have only small umbrella… useless to this kind of heavy rain.
I don't have to get wet, unnecessarily. Hahaha.

Instead of going out, I watched TV and video home.
I even opened the bottle of Maker's Mark and poured some into glass.
Yeah, made me feel relaxed with some drinks.

Maybe this is last time for me to play golf in Thailand…
Since this is LAST SEASON in BKK… as far as things are concerned for time being. Hahaha.

Woke up at 5am and went to Pleasant Valley Golf and Country Club.
1st visit for me, of course.
This is 4th round for me in this year.

Last time was back in April. Remember?





Usually breakfast at any golf club. Hahaha.
Khaw ton (rice soup).



Shiro liked his caddy for today. Very kind. Hahaha.
Plus, it was sensational… since Yossy's 1st golf round ever in his life!
Welcome to club!



His swing is very beautiful!
I sure that it won't take too much time for him to improve his golf.
Soon he will be a good player.

Better than me? Sure!

Speaking of which…
My score was usual… no surprising but not boring yet.

IN 52
OUT 49
Total 101

See? It is "Tamadaa" (usual). Hahaha.

Tonight after golf, went to see this:



"Bourne Legacy." Someone called this "Bourne Redundancy." Pretty good joke!

It was as side story of three Bourne series. Pretty interesting…enjoyed but disappointed at the end.
Hmmm. Is this going to continue??? Seemingly so.

Should Jason (Matt Demon) be back!

Fun Saturday it was!

After work, showed up to usual "Wine Connection" with coworkers.
Again? Sure, again.
We like this place so much.

Any issue? Hahaha.









So crowded… ran out of champaign glasses tonight.



This red… was what kind? Do not remember.





Usual gang!

How come my butt looks so big? Hmmm.

Had to go to renew the visa for my stay.
I know, this is still necessary even though the number of days in BKK is yet limited.
Rules are rules! Hahaha.



Huge governmental building complex.
What is this open area for?
Maybe you can run and scream around for nothing? Hahaha.



Local food for lunch.



This is large size. Large enough?



Not water. Chai tea. Pretty sweet.



N'Tity and Ogakijin… how come we hate each other so much?
Of course not. Happened to be that way in this picture.

Accident, right?



Immigration. Took so much time… though, settled at the end.
Long day just for this. Hmm.

Work is work…
Still too much trouble around?
We have to hold our hands up… almost giving it all up???

Hahaha.

I never wanted to miss this…
Watch Expo 2012 at Siam Paragon.
Biggest (?) BKK watch fair taking place until 19th.





Frank Muller was the most popular among other brands.



Expo was all over the mall.
Hard to visit every section.







Hublot… not popular at all. HOW COME?!?!



Gosh, Gaga Milano's limited edition for 500 pieces in the world were here.
I should get one!!!

(Still petition is pending… Hahah)



What about this? Tendence's colorful "Crazy" series.
Not at the site today. Though, they have one in somewhere else.
I should come back and check it out!

Movie followed after Siam Paragon.



Step Up Revolution. Pretty good dancing!!!
Story was quite simple… very straight forward movie about fancy dance!
Enjoyable.

I was quite desperate to eat Mexican food until today.
New friend Hiroko agreed to go to eat Mexican food tonight.



Mushroom quesadilla!!!
Gosh, they were great!!!
Just as I wanted!!!



Onion rings came with fancy decoration. Hahaha. Big surprise.



And it was Ogakijin… not too drunk yet. Hahaha.

Fun night lasted long… until the close of restaurant.
Too much talk as well (BANG!)

Just one day working between Thai national holiday and weekend.
Not bad… really not bad.
I saw so many people were taking off.

Seems to be the Thai summer vacation period is finally here.

Of course, there is no "recess" for any project. No exception.
We have to "keep on working" like Duracell battery! Hahaha. (old joke?)
Anyhow, many meetings, mostly internal, took place since…

Rest of team members joined the project from Japan today.
Including new member!
Remember that we let 2 men go back to Japan… now 1 new on board.

Worked late. Even cancelled the dinner appointment. Too bad.
Then, we ended up having team dinner at Italian restaurant.
Same restaurant that I went last Friday. Wow!



Of course different menu selected from previous visit.





Famous "Titanic" pizza. 380 baht. USD10.













New member on left. It is Akiko.
She joins IT track of the project.
Welcome board, girl!

She is newly wed… is she or her husband okay that you both are so apart for a while?

In the middle, "usual" Shiro - the "Captain of the Ship (=project)."



Say hello to the Team!

Yossy on most right seemed having cold… hope he makes quick recovery!



Before the entrance of the restaurant "Bella Napoli" on Soi 31 Sukhumvit, Bangkok.



Had fun over fantastic dinner tonight.
Thank you all!

Today, like I mentioned before, was holiday.
Lots of Thai people starts 4-day summer holiday from today.
Envy of those who come to that!!! Really!

I will go back to work tomorrow for sure. Too bad!

No plan means that I would go movie. So I did.



Today's pick was of new movie - "Total Recall."
This became 16th movie (watched in theater) in this year!!!
Cool.

This is SF-ish movie. Lots of CG's.
I like the setting a lot.
Very vivid idea was the base for the storyline.

Recommended.

Setting like:
Only UK and Australia were in exist in future (all others were vanished!)
Australia was, once again, colonized by UK.
Traveling between those two were not by air or ocean… under earth!

These are some of those "surprising" ideas that I really liked about.

Recommended.

Yes, my favorite place in Bangkok - "Wine Connection."
Once again tonight…

Since tomorrow and day after are "no alcohol" by law.

Thus, better drink tonight, RIGHT? Hahaha.
Darn right!



Different seat than usual.
Different view for sure. Hahaha.



Seeing a gay couple right up front… very Thai, right?





My favorite is karamari - 90 baht. Always order!







Sparkling wine - semi seco to start with.





Red - cabernet sauvignon to follow.
This was pretty good.



Even steak?!



and dessert!!!



Shiro obviously got more than enough...



N'Tity is in the middle.

Fun night… with drinks and food.
With great companies.

Thank you, friends!
