Imagine being paid to travel the world, searching for life's greatest experiences.

Now three residents of Thailand could have a chance to do just that by entering the "Live The Chivas Life" competition for prizes that will take winners to a dinner-in-the-sky party in Brussels, on vacation to a private island in the Maldives or on a flight to the edge of space in a MiG-31 jet.

To register, visit www.Live-The-Life.in.th before June 30.

Don't defer your dreams

If you dream of writing a movie script but don't know how to start, Simple Secrets Society may be helpful.

The company, which was set up to promote films and the performing arts, has released the book "Before Writing" by Nicole ML Hemmes. It's priced at Bt190 and available in local bookstores or from www.Simpledf.com.

The company is also holding a scriptwriting course from June 1 to July 6. The 20-hour lecture series costs Bt4,500. If you want to apply, it would help to read "Before Writing" for some background before starting the class.
