today while i was walking down the street, my left contact totally popped out of my eye.

i stopped dead in my tracks after realizing what happened, and started to search the sidewalk for it. this was right in front of a group of motosai (motorcycle taxi) drivers, and a few of them kindly began to help me look for it. just when i was about to give up on finding it, one of the motosai guys spotted it nearby. unfortunately though, it was all shriveled up by the time we retrieved it, and i was forced to put it into my mouth so it wouldn't dry out. yes, i agree---yuck x 100.

as i was standing in front of a storefront window in order to use the reflection to put it back in, the whole episode totally reminded of that scene in steel magnolias, when daryl hannah's character's contact falls out. for some reason that scene from the movie has always been burned into my memory, and i remember watching it as a kid and thinking, "what a load of bullshit, that would never happen." but, i was definitely proved wrong today.

anyway, here are some more of my photos of bangkok that i never posted.

  1. You know what's really funny? I realized no matter where you go in the world ( India, berlin, london, America Canada, Korea, Thailand) gay clubs all look similar. Tight tshirts, pop music, and the majority looking for something to satiate there appetite for something or anotha~

    Also, i never knew you could put your contact in your mouth to prevent in from drying out. But The fact that darrryl Hannah did it doesn't make it right. She only had one eye in a later movie and maybe it's bc she put a dirty contacr in her eye.
