When I left for Thailand, Thailand is still experiencing Red-Shirt protesters against Yellow-Shirt government. Though they were still in peace talk, demanding for an exact details of the early election from the government, tension were still in the midst among every Singaporeans who wanna go to Thailand, Bangkok. Even my parents especially my mum is uber concerned about me going there, persuading me not to go. Even had a small fight with her days before i fly off to Thailand. Nevertheless, I still trust in God that He is with me, trusting that He have the power to set everything nicely and well for me, I went ahead of my plans to Thailand, setting off for my first ever backpack with Darrius, Aizhen & Jialing; 2 guys, 2 girls.
The temperature there is definitely hotter than Singapore, and the sun blazing over us is also too strong for us to take it. We can't even last more than a day to get sunburned when we tried to explore Chiang Mai when we reached. Stayed at Chiang Mai for 2days 1 night, before proceeding on to Chiang Rai, which we stayed for about 6days 5night, and back to Chiang Mai to take a mini-van to Pai for a 3days 2nights relaxation. Lastly back to Chiang Mai again, to visit Liberty Kids Thai Orphanage.
All these are just simplified version of the trip. I will describe about the trip the next entry. :) Because the trip is really really really super funny, tiring, sweet and chilled! Scenery are gorgeous and too nice to resist it. Mountains are so natural. The sky is so clear that stars are surrounding it. People are kind, though there are a bit of language barrier. BUT STILL! everything are just too awesome. Way too awesome.
Made a lot of thoughts over there and I began to realize another part of me. Of course, it belong to me only. Thinkings that could allowed me to expand myself, enlarge myself, increase my capacity. Little things that i wanna do for my life, for my family, for God.
Trip to orphanage is great too. Met up with Orphanage Thai's Pastor, Pastors from Philippines, people from America. It's like United Nation over there. Haha. Learnt a few things from the Philippines' Pastors. Indeed, God is good all the times, and all the times God is good. Thankful to God for this trip.
