Hey peeps,It’s Pancake, your favorite inter student. OMLG. Has this been the crappiest week or WHAT? I mean, like someone was living it up at the Waldorf in New York while the rest of us are stuck here in the heat and rain eating crummy Waldorf salad at Dean & Deluca. Get my drift, Mr. PM? I was so pissed about getting stuck in a cab for two hours, I forgot my effin’ iPhone 4 on the backseat. Of course, when I called, it was totally turned off. This kind of stuff makes me really freak out about the income gap like big time. I mean, like, if you’re poor and you lose your iPhone, you might have to wait a whole month, or even two, before getting a new one, right? Maybe I’d be burning malls down too, if I was stuck in flip-flops, in the rain, with an old iPhone 3Gs (and no 3G, way to go CAT!)You know, I’m like not even angry at the piece of shit scum cab driver who took my phone. My BFF told me he’ll feed his family for a year with the money. And hey, don’t you know that world peace is hot, people! Don’t you watch TV? Hello! Abhisit shook hands with Hun Sen, which is kind of like me shaking hands with my Cambodian maid after she ate my makeup (well, I’m pretty sure she did. I mean ok, like maybe it was my labradoodle). You think Preah Vihear is worth declaring war over? Don’t mess with my mascara, biatch! But Mom fired her, so no shaking hands, but I totally would if I saw her begging or pimping herself out on the streets.I’m also like one billion percent for saving the planet, and promoting democracy in poor countries. I want to work at the UN too one day—well just live in NYC really but whatever. Ahbhisit was like, “Hey, Burma you guys need to have elections.” And I was majorly proud that Thailand was standing up for what’s right. It’s good to know we can go abroad and, like, hold our heads up high. Now they just need to fix the immigration queues because the thing with going abroad is you need to get back in. Last Friday, I was coming back from shopping in HK when I had to wait forever at immigration. Apparently they were arresting that blogger woman from Prachatai. OK, that website’s design is majorly fugly so she had it coming, but couldn’t they just get her at the taxi stand instead of holding up people with lives (and drivers)? When I get to the UN, I’m going to fight for migrant shoppers’ rights to faster immigration queues—maybe base it on sales receipts? Whatever, peace out.xoxox Pancake
