BANGKOK was fun! But sadly, Summer was sick on the second day.The moment we checked in to our hotel (Asia Hotel) on the first day, we went over to MBK, Siam Sqaure, Siam Paragon to shop.
And we bought hell loads of stuffs.
Lunch was at this Japanese Restaurant which cost less than 6 bucks in SGD.
After lunch, we continued shopping.
Then, we took a Tuk Tuk down to Platinum Warehouse Centre.
My gosh, we spent like almost the whole day there.
Shopped like nobody's business.
Afterwhich, we went back to the Hotel, put our stuffs down and headed down to Suan Lum Night Bazzar.
Continued shopping.
Had Tom Yam and Kang Kong for dinner.
And i must say Bangkok's Kang Kong is SUPERB!
And Thai people loves eating Kang Kong cos everywhere we go, we see them eating KANG KONG!
We ended our night by taking tuk tuk back to our hotel.
I spent about 3000 Baht on the first night.
All in all, i have 11,000 Baht.
Had breakfast the next morning and we went over to Isetan.
Summer went to pray while i sat down and rested my legs.
Her aunt came over to meet us and brought us around.
From Pratunam Market, to don't know what street.
At night, we went back to Siam Paragon for pedicure.
I fell asleep while waiting for that woman to finish her pedicure.
We went back to hotel kinda early that night cos summer was having fever and our legs were aching.
Took train back and dabao-ed Chicken Rice back to the hotel for dinner.
Cha Tu Chak the next day.
Goodness, it's FREAKING hot and there's soooooo many stalls can!
I almost died of dehydration.
We rested at some road side stall and drank coconut.
Continued with our shopping. And after awhile, we decided to give up and head back to Hotel to rest.
While Summer was sleeping/resting in the hotel room, i went to MBK Center ALONE! Yes. ALONE!
I din want to waste my time in the hotel room doing nothing so i decided to head down to MBK to do last minute shopping.
And i spent almost 2 hours in there shopping for presents.
While walking back to the train station, i came across this street that sells nice stuffs. So, i decided to take a look and surprisingly, i wasn't lost.
The Thai people even mistook me for a Thai can? They can even come up to me and asked me to do some survey. Gosh, do i really look like a Thai?
So anyways, after my shopping spree, i headed back to the hotel.
And ALOT of people were starring at me on the train. I don't know is it because i was carrying 2 HUGE plastic bags or is it because i dress too slack?
Rested for a while, bathed and slept for about an hour.
Summer's 2 aunts + her half sis came over to the hotel and picked us.
They brought us to this seafood place for dinner (cos it was summer's birthday)
And guess what? The only vegetable they served is KANGKONG!!!
Actually, i think Thai songs are nice to listen! =)
After dinner, we took a taxi back to Suan Lum (again) to do a very last last minute shopping.
I don't know how long we spent over there. All i know is, we left SuanLum at 1145pm.
Din manged to get up for breakfast on the last day cos both of us slept late the previous night as we were busy packing our luggage.
I almost couldn't close my luggage.
When we reached Thai Airport, we still left with about 575 Baht.
Decided to have a sumptous meal (lunch) before leaving Bangkok.
And our mission is accomplished! We spent EVERYTHING. NOT A SINGLE CENT LEFT. =)
Touched down Singapore at about 6pm.
Waited for the
This is the first time i waited for so long can?
Oh wells, whatever it is, i enjoyed my Bangkok trip.
Shopped like nobody's business. Sadly, i din managed to eat good food (other than the seafood dinner on the last day) So, Kenneth and Sabby, sorry, i din gain much weight. I'm still the same. Still weighing at 43kg!
I think i'm gonna make it a point to travel once every year.
My next destination will be HONG KONG!
I'm too tired to upload the pics. We din take much pics though cos the woman was sick. Upload again another day.
Shall continue with my Resume and Cover Letter. And mug for my System Intergration lab test tomorrow!!
