The
announcement I had been waiting for came, my flight had been called
and the flock of passengers had assembled at the gate. I was leaving
the UK not to return until the summer. My emotions were in a
whirlwind I didn't know whether I was happy or sad, I just felt in
limbo. Pulling myself together and remembering what I had promised
myself I smiled handed over my boarding card and stepped through the
gates. The plane was so comfortable and the selection of films was
awesome I would well and truly be in heaven for the next 15 hours to
Bangkok. Films were my escape, in a film you can be the star you're
watching and get lost in the fantasy world that has been created for
you. I last had that feeling whilst watching Man on Fire starring
Denzel Washington, the emotion of the story in it is so captivating I
couldn't help but be drawn in. The flight was over before I knew it
and as we descended into Suvarnabhumi Airport I caught my first sight
of the Bangkok skyline against a beautiful sunrise, it looked amazing
in the dim light of the morning. I could not believe I had done it, I
was looking out at my future. I was yet to know the strained yet
wonderful relationship I was to build with that city.
