I haven’t updated my blog in quite a while, but that doesn’t mean I haven’t been up to anything. Some unanticipated events left me with the month of June off, and nothing to do with my time, so I decided to hop in a plane and head out to Thailand, where I’ve been for the past week.
Sheriff is out here, so we’ve been hanging together and went out to Ko Phi Phi, which is where The Beach was filmed. We met up there with Todd and Tynan (aka, Herbal from The Game), who are traveling the world and blogging about it on www.lifenomadic.com. Both guys are a lot of fun, and we’ve gotten up to quite a few shenannigans, including a boxing match between Tynan and I that earned us both a bucket of rum, earned me my first boxing victory, and Tynan got some good stuff from his blog and the right to say he bloodied up my nose pretty bad.
All in all, I’ve realized something important out here. You can’t be bored when you’re surrounded by interesting people, and you’ll always be bored when you’re surrounded by boring people. The contrast between grad school this winter, where I was surrounded by far too many negative types, and this summer, where I’ve been hanging out with great guys like Cajun, Sheriff and Herbal, is huge. Surrounding yourself with good people is one of the best things you can do for your life.
Anyway, there are a lot more stories to come from Thailand yet… I’ll keep you posted
