Almost done in Bangkok

Yesterday wasnt too eventfull. Got up and had some breakfast which was an omlet sandwich. Basically it was egs tomato and cucumber and cheese on bread, lol. Went and bought 3 pairs of shorts and 3 t's. Then went to my buds house and watched lords of dogtown (great movie) they didnt wanna go to MBK mall so i went my self. Grabbed some socks, cellphone charger, usb stick to load my pics, soap, shaving cream and all that kinda shower stuff. That mall is the biggest shopping center i have ever seen, i've never been to west edmonton mall but i know this one has more stores for sure, you wouldnt be able to see it all in a day, not a chance. On my way back i rode in a tuk tuk with a really nice thai guy named "Alek" he talked about being honest with ppl and the importance of friendship. He said that tuk tuk drivers get a bad name because of the mafia and what not which is true. He said that any time i wanted to go somewhere or hang out and drink or if i ever needed to know something to just call him. I kinda did him a favor. See here in Thailand all the cab drivers and tuk tuk drivers get commissions when they bring tourists to places. He needed to bring a tourist to this one place to get this "coupon" or something. All i had to do was go into this suit store and look around for 5 mins and he would get hooked up. I didnt really care so i did it to help him out. He was so grateful he said he would buy me dinner or a drink or whatever i wanted. I said a water would be great so he pulled over at a 7/11 and grabed me a sprite. He was a really nice guy. So finally i got back to my new place which i like. O ya i forgot to mention i realized that i was spending too much money in bangkok so i had to make some changes to my spending habits. No more a/c and cable tv in my room which would normally cost 460 bhat (30 for ever dollar approx) and no more 120 bhat meals. Instead i would stay in rooms with just a fan and i would have meals for no more than 60 bhat. So that night i decided that i would just take it easy, i loaded the movie eurotrip to my ipod, grabed a pad thai for 25 bhat and 2 beers from 7/11 and just watched a movie in my new room. I like my new room because its a double bed with a fan and marbel floors for only 200 bhat. The curtains are light tho so they blow all over the place durring the night which kinda sucks but iu'm on the 4th floor so its alright. O ya and with the 200 bhat room you get no bathroom so you have a shared bathroom and shower facility which i dont mind at all because its like that in school and in sports. Today I'm gonna go check out some travel prices to go to puket i think. I'm gonna leave tomorrow night, i gotta get outta bangkok, there is nothing to do here but shop and party, no beaches or anything like that. When i get down there eventually i'll have to do whats called a "boarder run". You can only stay in this country for 30 days so what i have to do is take a bus to malaysia, get my passport stamped and then go back into thailand, lol. Once i do that i'll move on to the other side of the country to koh tao. Well i think i've said enought for today.
