During my journey in Amtrak!

Dear my blog fan!

Today, I woke up around 08.30 hrs because I had to take a train from UIUC to Chicago. My plan is going to Denver, Colorado, the most beautiful place in my mind.

Last month, I asked my friend, P'NOON and his family, for accepting me as a guess for a week. After they concured with my intriguing journey, I redeemed the mileage from United Airline, which I am a membership of this company. It costs around 25,000 miles for this trip and $7 for the administration fee. My mileage is still active around 26,000 miles. I am planing where I will go to by this method.

Let's talk about this trip, I act as a good guess by searching nothing about the interesting places in CO. I am looking for my friend to act as a good host. hahaha!

During my journey to Chicago, I found I had not travel alone. A stranger asked me if I am a student at UIUC. My answer is positively, and we began to discuss. He boasted that he graduated from ISU - the best school in some discipline which I have never known.

He also told my his country's story. Even though he came from Jordan for almost 30 years, he still considered Jordan the best place to live (but why he stays in the United States?) Only 6 millions do live in this small country under the constitutional monarchy doctrine. There are around 5 % of the rich living in this country and 20 % of them are poor.

It seems interesting because when compared to Thailand it may be more than 80 % of Thais living in the under-privilege! Mayber only 1-2% of Thais are very rich while the rest are not! How to do the poverty disappears from Thailand is my presented question in my mind!
