Deep Thoughts ... by a Pumpkin

Like I mentioned, Thais tend to incorporate fun (sanuk) into almost everything, so nothing is ever boring here. A would-be routine trip to an office supply store today was an entertaining lesson in local humor. I went with a classmate to pick up some nametags and we stayed for an hour laughing—and scratching our heads—at all the quirky goods. My notebook reads “Life... There was a sad thing. But you are in a side all the time.” And the thought bubble protruding from a pumpkin reads “If you love what you are doing.” I couldn't swear on it, but I don't remember any profound pumpkins at Office Depot. Seems to me they need to step it up.
