  Editor's Note

  » I'm not a big fan of shopping malls as a general rule. In fact, I can't really stand them and generally only visit them when it's absolutely necessary. Bangkok is a city that seems to be becoming overrun by shopping malls, most of which have pretty much the same shops selling pretty much the same stuff, as well as restaurants churning out the same bland, generic food. I can understand why on weekends many people like to hang out in cool, air-con controlled malls to escape the oppressive heat, humidity and pollution outside, but I always start to feel tired, anxious and bored after a few minutes in that kind of sterilised shopping environment.

  » I was glad to grow up and become an adult, and I don’t miss my days at school or university at all. They weren’t bad times, but I like the freedom of being able to run my own life and make my own decisions. I also hate wearing uniforms, although in Australia there’s no such thing as uniforms for university students.
