Bangkok quick facts:

Ha! I love this post for 2 reasons. #1- it's dang funny. #2- because I am your mysterious Bangkok stalker! I debated not responding for a while to keep up the confusion... but here I am.
(In case you can't tell who I am from my weird picture on this site, this is Michelle from Midway... ya know... Jen's student.)
I live in Bangkok now. Well... the sad truth is that I'm moving back to the states... tomorrow.
Love the Bangkok facts. I won't tell you how long it took me to understand the joke. Ahem. If you want more info about Thailand in general, my blog is full of em!
The end.
