  A traditional tool for the non-traditional

  Life, Napamon Roongwitoo, Published on 17/02/2015

  » Separation is hard on the couple, but it can be even harder on the kids. They are labelled children of "broken homes". They are perceived as "troubled kids". People assume that they don't get enough love and are more inclined to turn out bad. The worst part is that if the society lets such terrible assumptions continue, the kids will start to believe they are true. That can't be a good thing for our society.

  #Traffic

  » How has this week's traffic treated ya, now that the Thai kids are back in school? As a parent who has to endure the heart-tearing stress of being stuck on Sathon Road every morning and afternoon, I think I deserve a trophy for my patience, or a year's supply of Vicodin.

  » I was beyond relieved when those creepy lookthep dolls stopped making headlines. It was just too weird seeing people spending obscene money pampering a lifeless doll.

  #SchoolRules

  Guru, Napamon Roongwitoo, Published on 27/05/2016

  » One of the things I hated most about school was lining up in the morning, as one of the teachers went on and on about things that didn't really matter. Or maybe they did -- I wasn't really listening.

  #June

  » June has always been a special month for me, because my birthday is in June. Honestly, though, I stopped caring about my birthday once I turned 30.

  » Today is April Fools' Day, another useless celebration human beings have come up with, perhaps out of sheer boredom.

  #Confidence

  Guru, Napamon Roongwitoo, Published on 19/02/2016

  » If you went to a Thai school, you know that confidence is something highly discouraged. Confidence can lead to rebellion — or so Thai adults think — and must be suppressed from a young age.

  A dinosaur remix

  Guru, Napamon Roongwitoo, Published on 25/03/2016

  » Here are a few fun facts for you. The Parasaurolophus was perhaps the only type of dinosaur that could sing. The Argentinosaurus is the largest dinosaur ever known about, approximately 35.1m in length. The Stegosaurus, that dino with some 17 bony plates along its back, is thought to have been able to pump blood into its plates to change its colour, possibly to fool its predators.
