I thought I'd try and catch up a bit with my emails and here I have mainly been on the islands around southern Thailand but have finally got back to dry land. I spent New Year on an island called Koh Ngai which was so lovely, the pic does not do it justice. Although I am not sure it was the wisest of choice really becasue after it got dark there was nothing to do and it was full of couples having a romantic time which didn't make me feel the best. Still, the beach was lovely and you only had to swim a few feet out into the water to snorkel in the reef which was full of gorgeous fish.
Previously I was in Koh Phi Phi which again wasso beautiful but very very touristy and full of bars and clubs and the bit where you had to stay was totally ruined by that. Still though, I really enjoyed it. Now I am in Krabi and tomorrow I am getting the bus up to Bankok. I am going there early as I really feel like I have seen round here now and I figure I can always do day trips from Bangkok if I want to. I plan on doing a Thai cooking course there too and also I am hopefully meeting a friend there from when I was at school so it will be nice to see a friendly face.
H wished me Happy Christmas text which I ignored and when it came to New Year I sent him a happy new year text, perhaps becasue I was feeling a little lonely. He replied straight away actually with a nice text so I sent a chatty one back and he replied with a funny saying we used to have between the two of us re the cat. That was the first for a long time. Later he sent me a happy new year text when it was his time for new year. Like always now, I read nothing into anything but it was nice. I have missed him today and then I realised that it was just becasue I was a little hormonal and probably feeling a bit vulnerable in a strange place on my own. That being said, seeing all these coupls travelling together does make me miss him. Hopefully Bangkok will help wiith that.
I am having a fantastic time, he just sneaks in sometimes I hope this isn't too full of typos. I can't read what I have written on this computer so I am writing 'blind'!
I hope everyone had a good new year and here's to a great 2010 to all the amazing people on this fantastic board!
