bad days are 90% avoidable - even for this squirrel (hanging by his nuts). takeout the “emotions” and think things through. a “master” decision maker = 0 bad days!
reality…it’s called “laziness” with no “drive!” fyi…if you have a hard time focusing here’s a solution: turn off your phone, tv, youtube, twitter, facebook and simply set aside 2-3 hrs of “uninterrupted” time to tackle your most important task. so the real question is, “do you really have ADHD? or are you just fuckin “LAZY?”
FYI…the Compass “Lifestyle Tour” to Bangkok Thailand departing in July is completely booked. if you’ve ever considered living part-time or full-time in Thailand this is a tour you want to sign up for. our next tours will be departing in late October and November 2013. see you in Thailand!
2 hour deep-tissue Thai massage $15 vs. $160 in the U.S. yes you heard it right…that’s $15 for a 2-hour massage - at these prices you can have one every other day! i felt like a “Pro Athlete” getting a massage after my workouts, especially when they are working on my rotor-cuffs (tore both of them playing Rugby in college).
just one of the many benefits of living in Thailand!
5 words that will tell you why i’m EXCITED: “i’m going back to Fiji!!!” Compass is going to show you “first hand” what it’s like to live in this island paradise:) see you in Fiji!
my Monday started this morning - work for the day has finally ended. going to unwind with my friends JW Blue and Kindle Paperwhite. have a nice evening everyone:)
why you want to move to Thailand - reason #3: lunch $1.50 - $3 vs. $7 - $10 in the U.S. proper portion size, the ingredients are far superior (and healthier) in Thailand!
This is Nguyen Thi Thanh AKA The Lunch Lady. She’s one of my favorite street vendors in Saigon because she whips up amazing noodles everyday of the week. I enjoy her cooking so much that I blogged …
Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam: i love noodle soup! this women, known as the “lunch lady,” is famous for her daily noodle soups…suppose to be the best in the city! she was also featured on the tv show “No Reservations.”
can’t wait to eat here next month:)
the future of “uncreative” American film: Die Hard 13, Fast & Furious 10, Tyler Perry’s Madea 251, Expendables 16, Hangover 7, Transformers 11, Avatar 24, Toy Story 33, Shrek 17, Spiderman 101, remake - Jurassic Park, remake - Top Gun, remake - The Crow, remake - Child’s Play, remake - Starship Troopers, remake - Lethal Weapon, remake - Porky’s, remake - Short Circuit…not a creative fuckin’ bone in hollywood!

Clarification: Compass Group International still (and will continue) to have a strong presence in Central America…especially in Costa Rica!
due to “timing” and “demand” we feel now is the time to expand to Southeast Asia…specifically Thailand. Compass started in Central America in 2002 and we’ll be here for many more decades - nothing has changed:) we still work with the top residential developers in Costa Rica!
we’re just adding more “destinations” to our portfolio due to the demand for countries like Thailand, Vietnam, Bali and Philippines. in the next 6 months we will be interviewing and hiring 40-50 new “International Real Estate Consultants” for Compass Group International (Asia)…we’ll keep you posted when ‘we’re accepting new applicants.
