14th -17th Sept 2006,

well. apparently i’ve USED up the MAXIMUM LIMIT at FLICKr.. so. here’s some sneak peak of the pictrues taken in BANGKOK.

JUST OUSIDE OUR HOTEL, GRAND MERCURE
WE took Thai Airways to BKK, was a 8:20am flight ( i didnt sleep much the nite b4.. BZ packign till 3am.. and had to wake up at 5am !!)..reached BKK bout 9 plus.. went straight to hotel, checked in.. n went to the nearest MRT station… i MUST say.. OUR HOTEL is so STRATEGIC.. the building itself is linked to TESCO!

Getting all ready to SHOP SHOP SHOP till we DROP..( which we did)!!!

YUMMY… FOOD AT MBK ’s FOOD COURT is not bad..

I shop like a mad woman first day itself.. went to SIAM PARAGON, SIAM CENTER, MBK, SIAM SQUARE ( only 1/4 of it,, my feet hurts sooo bad, i couldn’t walk… n deicided to skip clubbing for the nite…. IMAGINE how bad tat was!! me.. not clubbing??? wow… )


Views from teh SKy Train..

Check out the phone booths… old school ey??
We had so much fun. shop shop shop.!! we had to take 2 days to finish walking into MOST ( not all) shops at SIAM SQUARE… good looking ppl walking by us.. especially those cute guys!!!! it’s like.. 8 out of 10 guys r cute there okay!!! NO JOKE!!!
Had dinner at the road side of BANGKOK BOUTIQUE HOTEL ( stayed there the last time i came)…

the mandarine orange.. orange juice.. yummy..

Egg Noodles… MY FAVOURITE DISh in BANGKOK, suprisingly.. both my trips down there.. i nvr had a SIngle bowl of TOM YAM or PINEAPPLE FRIED RICE.. , over rated in malaysia?? probably… Oh.. i had my MANGGO SALAD every nite… as dessert.. hehehehe
Anyway, Funny thing was.. BKK is 1 hr later than Malaysia TIME.. rite?? But i guess i was SOOO blur & tired... i set the wrong time for my alarm!!! My phone was still set in MALAYSIAN TIME, we plan to wake up at 8 am BKK time, by right i shud have set a 9am alarm on my PHONE (M`sian time), rite??? but.. DONO WHY.. i actually SET 7 am (M`sian time).. and when it set off in the morning…. i was surprise to see it was STILL very dark outside…. that’s when it kicked it… ( oh.. and ive already woken up josie.. opss… hehehe).. I SET the alarm wrongly!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I told Josie IMMEDIATELY tat i set the wrong time & we still have 2 hrs to sleep…. my mistake.. my mistake. hehehe *blush*
WAKE UP WAKE UP, IT’S THE FIRST OF THE MONTH… GET UP GET UP… (don’t remember th lyrics..
)

we went to GRAND PALACE for the day!!! took the MRT til HUALAMPHONG Station.. there we took a cabby BUT the cab driver can’t SPEAK a SINGLE ENGLISH!!!!!! I had to take out my MAP n show it to him… point point point.. and he didnt get it… had to take out ALL da maps in my bag.. n find the WORD “GRAND PALACE” in Thai… oh well. manage tog et there in ONE PIECE.. only cost us bout.. 60Baht.. which is bout RM 6.
However.. we took a TUK TUK. made a detour ( cost us 20 Bath only).. to a temple.. as well as some Jewelry shop…look see look see . nuthing much.. however.. it was a SUPER HOT HOT DAY!! NO THANKS to our conceirge guy back in our hotel, HE told us that we have to Wear covered toe shoes.. long pants.. tops with sleeves..SO of course we did the exact thing he told me to… but when we were there.. I see ppl wearing sandals.. slippers!! damn……..! so HOT… that the heat got us.. both of us had headache.. well. . i had migraine… so deicided to GO BACK to our hotel. Took TUK TUK till MRT station.. & then till our hotel.. popped pills… slept for an HOUR! cos my migraine was killing me…

FASTEST TRANSPORT in BANGKOK!

After our QUICK NAP.. we cleaned ourselves & continue our SHOPPING SPREE.. COntinue the Other 3/4 part of SIAM SQUARE… which we did UNTIL 7pm!!! ohh.. speaking of BEAUTIFUL PPL, EVEN the TRANSVERSTITES r pretty GORGEOUS!!! Josie was trying her outfit…& the owner & her frens came n adjust her top & stuff.. JOsie was like *talking in cantonese* ” oh my gawd.. they r so pretty…”. and i was like… * in cantonese* ” babe… look carefully.. they r not ladies..”! It’s SO UNBELIEVABLE.. COS they r TALL, LONG HAIr, FAir SKIN.. PRETTY!!! THEY LOOK LIKE MODELS!! bout 4/5 of them!! however 3 of them don have the voice of a lady tho… that was wat gave them up.


At siam square again….
Met up with ALEX & his GF, Alex my childghood fren from Back home. Wat a coincidence.. he & his gf came to BKK one day earlier. it was nice meeting up with him over dinner.
FOOT MASSAGE!! can’t take anymore walking any longer!!!! so me & Josie decided to have a qucik foot massage at Siam Square. the massage was alrite.. would rate them 7/10. but my feet did feel ALOT better!!! haaha
8pm: RUSHED back to our hotel room.. Quick change & transformation…. headed down to RCA!!! FYI.. it was raining that nite.. wat a bummer.. went to ROUTE 66, went there the last time i came to BKK, LOVE IT!!! it’s PURE R&B Hip HOp!

went partying.. PACK.. the place is SUPER PACKED!!!
got to know a few Thai ppl, eva & bon …. and also one German & Greek .. KIri & Stephon. How did we end up being in Amsterdam with a German?? This is how itwent… Bon & his fren ofered to give us a lift ( FYI, Bon is by far the only Thai i knwo who speaks GOOD english).. back to our hotel, cos it’s really near, he also offered the ride to both the Kiri & Stephon.
Rainy day.. roads were slippery… driving at a fast speed.. the car ran over a bump.. i hit my head.. n BAM!!!. onto a stand still Mazda RX 8 ,Bon wanted to hit & run… he even said ” hey.. it’s comon in Thailand..” . However, the RX8 manage to catch up wif us. all of us got down the car.. & i sooo neeed to pee….. Bon manage to settle it with the RX 8, the dude didnt even look angry or watsoever.. ( both cars were alright tho), he then pointed to me our HOtel, which was jus infront of the HUGE cross Junction.so both me & josie decided to walk back.
but b4 that .. i rushed myself into the NEAREST toilet… which was a REALLY DODGY PUB, josie, kid & stephon accompanied me. Later we said Byes… n both me & Josie walked abck to Our Hotel.. Looking back.. we noticed this..

The Building where the DODGY PUB is located.. is called “AMSTERDAM” , im not surprised if the pub itself is called that. We went to Amsterdam, with a German ( stephon), in bangkok..!! <– there u go…
