While in the van back to our office from the suits shop, I quite seriously
considered jotting down one more blog before we leave today for our annual 3-day staff outing at the beach. Cha-am beach resort is not quite different from the other resorts in Thailand in terms of exquisite appeal, splendor, & extravagance of breath-taking scenery. The beach is so pristine that no one has any reasons at all not to get tempted & get soaked in the water while enjoying the tropical sun. Oh, well, I’m safe as I do have my sunblock lotion with me.
My group of 4 wasn’t at first inclined to try our suits on just plainly assuming that they should be fine, cute & fit-perfect. Oh, what has got to be done if a really undesirable thing happens! I was kind of really tempted to try mine on as I hear my angels persuading me to do so. Luckily, I did & unfortunately mine wouldn’t fit me! Oh, no! What if we just left the suits shop & later found out prior to the variety show that mine wouldn’t fit me? Wow, that would be a real mess. It’s a competition, well rehearsed & bound to win top prize..hehe. Moreso, my other friend’s was funny. He got his suit’s legs twisted. How could he ever wear it, & if he can, how would he ever walk or perform the dance? After all, we’re only pandas in disguise of smart & sane people! Hehe.
Okay, we finally got our perfect panda suits & now ready to boogie. Millions of thanks to our dear Thaicom President for the funds..we’re very lucky that she volunteered to sponsor our own simple programme, thanks to you, Ma’am. We’re no pandas but we look & walk more like the real one..even without the suits. Our theme is to look & act very boring on stage - the song is just like that..sounds like complaining or something. In reality, we’re not boring people, of course, we’re more of a highly entertaining & opinionated individuals lurking around Thaicom trying to make others laugh & make sense of anything even for no specific reasons at all. Just making sense of something out of nothing. Our guru has thought us a lot on how to be real humans. And guess what? We’re blessed because we have the guru in our team which would possibly give us an edge over the others & win jackpot in the contest! Oh, what a plan!
Now, talking about our performance. You wouldn’t really care anyway if you see us dance & hear us sing the panda song. Don’t worry if you find us really messy, after all, we are only pandas & pandas can’t sing nor dance anyway. So, at least, we are trying to revolutionize the panda character & try to develop a higher level of the panda gene. But in Thaicom, we are the real pandas, that’s no pretense!

I really like this blog. Excellent expression skills and composition skills. When it comes to blog jeanett makes me envious.
“we’re more of a highly entertaining & opinionated individuals lurking around Thaicom trying to make others laugh & make sense of anything even for no specific reasons at all.”
Actually i think you got this almost right except for the fact that you said for no specific reason at all.
There has to be a reason behind. A reason that actually reaches beyond borders.
hahaha…thanks a lot, martin.
