BANGKOK FAVORITES

Seriously August, where did you go? It's kind of crazy to realize that there are only seven days left before we jump into the next month, and a few blinks more we're probably going around greeting each other Merry Christmas. Nuts.

There are a lot places and sights I wanted to share and talk about lately, I just can't find the voice to write it because sloth. Anyway, here are some of my personal favorite photos taken around Bangkok last January (wayyy long overdue!).

Happy end of the weekend to all! (Except for me, because it's National Heroes Day tomorrow hee)

DERAILED

An MRT train recently got derailed on its way to Taft, Manila, the route I ride in every day from the office. A lot of issues has been raised since then, which reminds me of a famous quote from Enrique Penalosa, Mayor of Bogota in Colombia: 

"An advanced city is not a place where poor move about in cars, rather it's where even the rich use public transportation."

Photos are from BTS in Thailand.

DOORS IN GRAND PALACE

When in Bangkok: Grand Palace.

The palace complex definitely lived up to its name. It was, uhm, grand :D However, because of the vastness of the area and the inevitable overlapping of design in sight, I began to struggle in composition. What I found interesting within and around the complex though? Their doors.

And as I gradually transition this to my personal state, one door has closed up on me very recently. From this I realized that rejection is not always disappointing.. it can be liberating too. Now I feel free, and challenged to face another portal in life :) 

Hope you have it good for the rest of the week! I'll be taking off for a few (hopefully sunny) days at the beach with film and camera in hand :)
