happy holidays.
& im missing bangkok badly already.



this baby affected me so badly throughout the trip.
i gave him some coins and he was so happy,shaking the coins like it was a toy..
& that impish grin when his lil fingers touched the coins..
its really sad to know that at this age u are not playing with proper toys
yet money is what u had been taught to love.

Our well-deserved trip to bangkok, 1322 & 1572 :)
like 2 siao char bors.. we were super happy at the airport!
finally we got our break from bloody budgets!



1st day : once touched down we rushed to the hotel.
nua-ed,changed & went to chatuchak.
surprisingly good weather and lotsa stuff we bought without even blinking.
there was too many to see yet too lil time.
off to platinum after.
the flooring there was just too slippery that we just 'glided' our way along.
hence the super loose ankles at the end of the day.
touched our beds at 9pm that night.
we were simply TOO TIRED fr the excitement. jetlag lar !




2nd day : i woke up damn early lor! like 745am.
couldnt sleep,tossing & turning the entire night..
simply cant wait to wake up to shop you see!
it was the busiest day for us running all over the place.
siam sq for breakfast at this shitty thai noodle place.
$3 bucks for a plate of tanghoon so little i was hungrier than before i ate.
siam sq where we received a heart-stopping call from office.
bloody budgets haunting us all the way to bangkok.
freaked us out and spoilt our mood there & then.
mbk for toiletries then platinum it was all the afternoon!
amazingly we found $2 pant but it was so tiny i had to wear an M!! :(
always loved suan lom & it was a must-go for me though this time i got only a clock..



3rd day : we were feeling that there wasnt enough time already.
spent the entire day at Platinum sliding & gliding at a ridiculously high speed.
zig-zag-ing through all the lanes and making sure we didnt miss any store!
i think we spent the entire day there.. from 11am-7pm.
its just so sad to hear the shutters when the stores close..
breaked a little - watching tv and inspired by their lame talkshows to draw our faces.
its just nonstop laughter with this lame girl :P
felt we just had to shop till we drop so we sped off to suanlom but got stuck in e peak hr jam.
think e taxi driver brought us all over bangkok- thru their cbd area..patpong,residential areas n kampung huts.
but amazingly after the 30min or so ride it cost us only what..8sing?!
we actually got all dressed up for Vertigo,this nice bar/restaurant on top of Banyan tree.
but it was too late by the time we finished suan lom..



last day : it always suck to know that you are going home soon!
we rushed to pack cus we had to check out at noon.
ate our final breakfast at the hotel,coffee was superb !! we had like 3 cups each.
bade goodbye to our comfy beds and sped off to platinum for our last round.
we really shopped till the very last minute,still insisting on eating our fave green tea ice-cream!
our flight was at 8pm but at 515 we were still stuck in a jam along siam square.
couldnt believe it..
& the fuckin tuk tuk driver almost cheated us into thinking he could send us to the airport.
"tuk tuk 500baht,cheap cheap! taxi 1000baht jam..
tuk tuk cannot go 'tollway' but nvm i can zig zag through the jam"



Thank god for this super nice security guard who took real care of us girls.
When we were back late,he opened the door for us and was happy we were back safe :)
he scolded the tuk tuk driver for us and we found out that tuk2 werent allowed at the airport.
we made it in time by 6.15pm via taxi at only 300 baht la !

the rest is history.
im back bored and missing the place badly.


oh yes i loved the f1 race.

an unforgettable experience!
only went for a day to help out at the Centurion Suite.
come on,i dont play with barbie dolls la.
Sha's right,more like pulling the barbie hair out :X
i love fast cars..just that i cant drive..yet!
