I Did The Most Unthinkable
I've just told the friend whom I went to Bangkok with that I didn't think the trip wasn't that good. On MSN.
I say: i thought about the trip
I say: din think it was that good
I say: (sorry har, i am being honest, doing honest review)
I say: it wasn;t that good for me lah
I say: i am speaking for myself only
She says: k
I say: probably because my expectations are different
And then she went "Away".
I know, I know, I was being VERY BLUNT. Harsh even.
But I thought about the whole thing while walking home from my aerobics class last evening. The more I thought about it, the more I felt that I should speak up. It wasn't what I would term as a "go on a travel" trip. We did things exactly the way we do them in Singapore.
I am putting a friendship at risk. But I felt I need to be honest. I don't want this to go down in history.
Now we wait.

She says: k
I say: it's not that the entire thing was bad
I say: i do enjoy the japanese food and the convenience of moving around shopping complexes from our hotel
I say: i probably have peg my expectations too high for a 3 day 2 night trip
I say: i will have to learn to communicate my expectations next time
I say: just thought I would let you know my thoughts on this, and that I am grateful that you have arranged everything.
Now we wait again.
