Songkran Festival
Another year rolls in. Here in Thailand you have several New Year celebrations to choose from, or you can have all of them... Aside from 1st January, you also have the Chinese new Year and the traditional Thai new year, Songkran, which used to be the date for changing the year on the calendar. Thailand only adopted the Western New Year in 1940. Songkran is one of the biggest celebrations in Thailand, mixing tradition, family and of course plenty of Sanook (fun). The traditions still apply - New Year is a [...]
2007 - The Year in Review
Happy New Year to everyone from those of us here at Thirteen Thoughts (ok - it's just me but Happy New Year anyway).

Happy New Year
Happy New Year. I am starting the year off well with problems with the Blog. I hope this is not a sign of what's to come for the year. I have always advocated not making New Years Resolutions unless you know you can keep them. In that vain I would like to give you some suggestions to help you keep resolutions. 1 I will gain weight this year. 2 I will not exercise. 3 I will drink more beer. If you have problems keeping them there is something wrong. [...]
