Bangkok Trip 21/04/07~ 3rd day

Supposed to meet at the girls' room at 10am bangkok time but the girls overslept. Went over their room and they are just awake. Had Dunkin Donuts and sushi for breakfast. Xing Fu~
Packed up and they check out their rooms and move their things over to our rooms. Stanrick and my room only need to check out at 6pm.

Then, we went back to MBK again coz there are still things to get.. We havent buy Sel's things and Steph have not buy Kelvin's things.. also, there are foodstuffs to get.

Reached there at abt 11.30am. We split up to shop coz there's no more time to wait for each other. Steph and i bought a pair of shoe and a bag for Sel. Last min, i got myself a pair of podka dot shoes too. Went up to 3rd level for bags and got a black bag for my mum and a white one for myself. Shall take photos of them soon. Stanrick bought himself some hair gel again and we went to their body care shop and bought some body and hair cares there. Went up to 6th leveel, wanted to get a padlock. Smelled something weird.. then saw smoke coming out from opposite. Quickly buy the padlock. Then suddenly, a guy came to tell the shop owner something and she ran towards the foodcourt direction where the smoke is coming out from. Suddely, lots of people walking very fast and running.. trying to get out. Stanrick and i quickly went down the escalator. People are pushing and pushing.. But when we reach 3rd level, everything seemed normal. Just a lot of pple going down escalator. Think they still dont know something happened. I called Steph, and she still wanna shop till 2pm, which is 1 more hr to go. Stanrick and i went down to 1st level to ask the information counter. She said its just a small fire and its being put out. We slack for a while a 1st level, but realised the smoke is getting thicker and more pple are heading out of MBK. SOme shops, including KFC has closed their shop. Called Steph and they finally realised the suitation. Told them to meet outside.

Fire engines came.. a total of 7 of them.. Small fire? I dont think so. Steph came out and is still grumbling abt her dunkin donuts. We still havent buy them. But she was already carrying lots of things! 11-12 bags and 4 shirts for kelvin, and a big bag with those skin cares. Joey's not bad herself. But not as 'kua zhang' as steph.

Wanted to take cab back to hotel and put our things but no cabs is available. Finally we decided to squeeze into a 'toot-toot' after waiting under the hot sun for 15 mins.

Exciting riding a 'toot-toot' and thought its very squeezy, stanrick and steph sitting on opposite sides and might fall off anytime, we still managed to take a photo. Yeah~

Went back hotel and Steph beginning showing us what she bought. Bought a necklace and a ring for 1800 bucks. Rested a while and we went downstairs for a massage and lunch. The time is abt 2pm. We still have 3 hrs before we have to check out and head to airport. Reached the lobby and suddenly, steph says her necklace and ring is missing. Search her bag and she even went upstairs to search luggage etc, all dont hvae. She came down looking sad. We decided to proceed on with our massage and lunch first before heading back to help her find.

Went for traditional thai massage with joey and stanrick while steph chose to go for oil massage. My first time doing the traditional thai massage. A great experience. Haha!!

Outside the massage place, waiting for steph. We finished slightly earlier. Its already 4pm. We only have 1 more hour left.

Me and Stanrick outside the restaurant bug and beetle, waiting to go in for our lunch.. damn hungry!!!

At the restaurant while waiting for our food.

The girls.. Steph can still force a smile. She's feeling kidda moody and upset.

Joey and her lunch.

My lunch! The curry's super nice!

Too hungry and busy eating.

Stanrick's lunch.

Our skinny chicken wings. Its really skinny! Wonder if the chickens there are malnourish.

And finally, our waffles. Each of us had one each. Except im sharing with stanrick coz i ate lots of those skinny chicken wings.

Rushed back to hotel and its already 4.45pm. Search our bags and whole room for steph's ring and necklace and still couldnt find. Steph check out with a heavy heart. Took a cab to airport, reached at close to 6pm and she's still feeling very moody and very quiet.

Our flight is at 8pm bangkok time, reached back singapore at 11+pm. Steph's bf, kelvin came to fetch us and treated us prata. Headed back to steph's house to take stanrick's car and they began talks of how they heard noises. I heard it took, thought not very sure. But we didnt tell each other. We only discussed on that day, which made it more errie. Will write abt that next time. Sent joey home and reached home at abt 2am. Steph called and said she found her necklace and ring, which is so weird, hidden under the shirts she bought for kelvin.

Concussed till next morning. Super tired but a fun trip! Too bad Suan Lum night bazaar is closing in end of April.

:( Looking forward to a next trip soon!!

Bangkok Trip 20/04/07~ 2nd Day

Met up at 9am, bangkok time and off we go for our breakfast at Burger King which is near our hotel.

Took photos at the lobby again before beginning another day of shopping.

Stanrick and I. Why am i always wanting to box him? I forgot. Think he's reluctant to take photo again. Haha.

My Breakfast at Burger King.

After that, took a cab to Erawan Shrine, the 'si mian fo' to pray. Didnt know how to go about doing it. Spent some time under the hot sun watching how people do before we pray. Bangkok's really hot!!!

Then, took a cab again to MBK for our shopping spree. Surprisingly, i didnt buy alot of things there. Stanrick only bought some hair gel thingy there and I bought 2 key pouches, one for my mum and one for my dad, a watch for myself for my exams, and 2 sunglasses. One's mine and the other stanrick's.

Steph bought lots of bags there.. Joey got some of her things as well. The girls are crazy. Bought some many things in Watsons. Big bag small bag kind.. Ha..

Stanrick gave a black face again then. Think he's hungry. Went to the MBK foodcourt for lunch~ Shark fin's and rice. Very very nice!! When the girls went to exchange the coupons for us to buy food, had a slight arguement with stanrick. He was very pek cek because we keep walking around and shop and think his patience wore off. I was angry too and told him next time he no need to come anymore. Haha. But after the girls come back and we went to get our drinks, he's ok already. Apologised and said he's hungry and not used to walking for so long. Well, he's actually very good already. Just stand there quietly to wait while we look at our things. So i feel i shouldnt be too much and still be angry with him. So we made peace. :)

Initially was too angry and sianz, so forgot to take the lunch we ate. Haha. After lunch, we continue shopping again. The girls went to the 3rd floor to look at more bags, while stanrick and I went to the 4th floor to look at electronics stuff. My turn to wait for him to look at his things. But its ok, since he's been accompanying me. The hps there are so cheap!!! Still, we didnt get anything.

Met up with the girls later.. initially wanted to go for massage but there's no time. 4+pm bangkok time. Steph gonna meet her counter parts at 6pm at Suan Lum night bazaar. So we headed back to hotel to put our things and take a rest.

In the hotel room. Demostrating how we feel in the food court at MBK just now. We are so mad at each other that we feel like punching each other.

Of course we didnt, so we just stare hard at each other.

After a while, things are fine and we are back to the loving us. Give you a kiss for being so nice. First to give in and apologize. Look at his smug face.

The happy us after our lunch and his walk around at the electronics floor... and finally, resting at hotel.

Went over to the girls' room to see what they bought and to chit chat. Took a playful photo with joey.

Me and Steph.

Steph and Joey starting their pillow fights. Girls... *shake head*

Me and joey.. fighting or feeding each other? Hahaha..

She's trying to demo how stanrick always like to put his arms around my neck, like trying to strangle me. A bit fail la.. ha. But a funny pix. Who cares abt image?

Finally a normal pix. We're all 'hua chi'.

Haha. It looks like i'm at hawaii. Which that thing.

Joey too, look at the way she wanna eat her graphs..

Steph thinks that we are 'bo liao'. Instead she choose to take a sweet photo, all nicely dressed up in her new top and new earrings, preparing to meet her counter parts.

In the cab, on the way to Suam Lum night bazaar again.

The slipper that joey and i bought on the first day at Suam Lum. Very comfortable. The left leg is joey's.. hers is a purple one with flowers. The right side is mine.. a pink one with flowers.

Steph went to find her friends while the 3 of us decide what to have for dinner.

Settled for a restuarant, dont know wat steak house.. i've short term memory. haha. Stanrick finally smile, coz he's back at his favourite Suan Lum and we're waiting for dinner.. of course! Ha.

Joey and I while waiting for food.

Our heineken beer.. its cheap there. 79 bucks per bottle. Which is like $3 at a restaurant?

My dinner. Chicken steak.

Stanrick's dinner. Sirlon steak.

As joey's sitting in front of us, didnt take her food. Pork dont know what. Coz the food's really so tempting i dont want to waste more time taking photos. haha.

Drinking our beer.

Me and Stanrick.. We spent quite some time there coz we're only meeting steph at around 9pm. So we chatted abt lots of things, relationships, family and work..

Met steph after that and started our shopping. This time round, Stanrick's turn to buy things. Finally. He bought tshirts, boxers, a pair of slipper again, 2 fishermen's pants and a key chain. For me, i only bought some shorts and a black dress, to go with my red belt i bought the day before.

Took a cab back to hotel at close to 11pm. Too tired..

Things we bought on the 2nd day. 1st half of the bed.

Things we bought on the 2nd day, 2nd half of the bed.

Finally, me with my black dress and red belt.

Bathe and went down to get our welcome drink. All of us had red wine and was feeling tipsy and tired. Had a very good night sleep. :)

Bangkok Trip 19/04/07~ First day

Woke up even earlier than the usual days I have to work. 6.30am. Stanrick was at Sam's house the previous night. So i had to pack his stuffs for him and bring eveything down to the carpark and meet him at 7.30am as he have to go home to "let his granny see" before we go bangkok. His granny went korea the same day as we left for bangkok. Just that ours is noon flight and hers is night flight. Bought prata back to his house, had breakfast and proceeded to stephanie's house at joo chiat. Stanrick left his car there, so that steph's dad can 'look' after it for him for the 3 days. Ha. Steph's dad drove us to airport and met joey at 10am.

While waiting for check in of luggage. Joey looks cute with her new hair style. Stanrick keep calling her 'sha da jie'.

He's being forced to take this picture. Can see his 'bu gan yuan' face. Haha!

Too bored in the plane, thought its only a 2 hr flight. Slept the first thing we are on board and took this only like 15mins before reaching bangkok.

Arrived and took a cab to Pan Pacific Hotel. Its really nice!! Mine and stanrick's room. Steph and joey's room is just beside us. We dont even have to close our door coz we have a 'main door' for both of our rooms. Cool. I didnt want to take the bathroom coz i'm usually scared of it and though the hotel looks bright, i just feel there's something errie in the toilet.

We're staying at the 27th floor and so, the view is fantastic!

Took a rest in the hotel for like 15mins and bangkok time is close to 2.30pm. Then we left for our first destination, PLatinum shopping mall.

Outside the hotel lobby.

With the girls. We're so excited!!!!

Wanted to go find a massage place that steph's friend recommend, but walk and walk and we still cant find. Had lunch at MacDonald's. I know, stupid. But its the nearest place to grab something to eat. I'm so damn hungry! Walked again for like another 20mins under the hote hot sun before we give up and took a cab straight to platinum fashion mall. Not as great as what i anticipated. You have to really get in bulks, like 3 pcs and above before the things can be cheap. But 3 of us dont really have similar taste so cant really get so many things in the same shop. In the end, only bought undies(lots of them and they're cheap!), a skirt and belts there. Stanrick gave a black face, since we've been walking for 2 hrs plus non stop and the things there are all girly stuffs. Decided to call it a break and head for dinner at chinatown. Took cab again. Bangkok's traffic is bad. Think we are stuck in the jam for like 20mins.

Very long didnt see this already right! Coke in a glass bottle! and its only 10bucks.

Dinner. Forgot to take the tom yam soup. Too busy eating.

Joey feeding steph. How sweet. ^_^

Guess where are we? Heading to the bird nest shop immediately after dinner and all of us had a bowl of bird nest each! I know.. we're pigs.

Waiting for our bird nest.

He's happier. Definately much better than we're at Platinum mall. Should have took his photo. But i know he'll be more angry.

The 'black' and 'white' bird nest. Quite nice la..

Both of them enjoying theirs.

Took cab again and proceeded to Suan Lum night bazaar. As it turns out, stanrick loves it there. He was like wow, wow.. and this is then call shopping in bangkok. I'm surprised. Still thought he will find it crowded and hot. He's even the one who said he wanna go back on the 2nd night, since steph's colleague says that patpong night market is kind of dangerous.

Near the entrance of Suan Lum night bazaar.

Who's that lady behind? And why is stanrick always hiding behind me? Hmm..

Its very hot there and we did lots of bargaining. Stanrick didnt want to bargain at all. Well, he'll change his thinking soon...

At the end of the night, he only bought a pair of slippers for the whole day of shopping. Think he wanna save it for the 2nd day. For me, i bought a pair of slipper, a skirt, an nice black clutch bag, and an addidas bag for my bro. Not much things but the whole day we spent a total of 3k+ bucks on purchases, food and cab fares. Equivalent to abt $150+? Cant really remember and lazy to count.

Then, being tired and sticky, we took a cab back to our hotel at around 11+pm bangkok time. Went over to 7-11 to buy some drinks and toiletries.

Tada! Back at hotel and this is what we see. Robes made out nicely and flowers on the pillow. They also have ice in their thermo flask. Heavenly to drink ice cold coke at such hot country. Hey, i've been drinking coke with stanrick everyday! Ha!

Shagged us but satisfied after one day of good food and shopping. Yeah, stanrick agreed the shopping part is good too. But he only mentioned Suan Lum night bazaar. Haha!

He laid our, or should i say my purchases on the bed and took a photo of them. Can you see the slipper beside the red belt? Its the only thing he bought for himself. The white belt and the addidas white bag is for my bro. The rest oif the things are mine. Not alot what.....

Tried out the top, skirt and bag i bought. Not bad. haha.

Bathe and sleep. And got ready for our day 2......
