Bangkok Trip 2007
It wasn't a very pleasant trip other than the fact that I have bought quite alot of stuff which i want. (not what I needed, get it?) Unpleasant, reason being firstly, our to flight was delayed for 7 hours! You cannot imagine how we spent our time in the DFS. (Stoning and entertaining ourself by counting strands of hair. ha.) Secondly, the flight was horrible. J**S*tar sucks ok. Thirdly, my mama fell sick on the second day of the trip and dad has to send her to the bumrungrad hospital cos she can't stop vomiting. Lastly, I had diahrrea on the last day followed by gastric pain. (just recovered like yesterday) Wonderful trip! (sacarstic tone)
But, this trip was the trip which I finally try to remember roads of Bangkok, name of prominent-must-go places (MBK, Jatuchak, Suan Lum Night Bazzar, Pat Pong etc etc). Previously, I were too reliant on my dad (for your info, my dad has been stationed in bangkok for 8years. yes, he do fly back to Singapore like every 1-2-3 months) cos he's very familiar with the roads and places in Bangkok. I'll just have to hop into his car, sleep through the horrible traffic congestion and tada! reached.
Bangkok is not a bad place. I often wonder about their gender issue. I felt that thailand has the most number of transverse (either way). Weird. Some are really pretty but once you discover the flaws. kiaokiao... you'll regret being too curious about confirming it's gender. ha.
Not all businessmen are honest in Thailand, especially so when their customers are foreigners. There was this incident where I asked about the price of a pair of slippers and that person told me 350bhat. It was 199baht like less tha 24hrs ago! So immediately I said, "how come yesterday 199 today 350?" And, he gave a guilty face and admitted he lied. My dad saw the whole thing and told him in thai that he's not being very honest. So, since he's not very honest, I see no point in letting him earn my 199baht. We decided to walk off and he suddenly say he will cut it down to 150baht. He then bent down to pick a lousy-ugly looking slippers and said, "this 150. that 199 still." Wow! I think you can almost hear my heart thumping so hard with anger! I just gave him a hard stare to warn him "you try play punk somemore..." He laughed and we just stepped away when a lady approached me. She is the ladyboss la.. She saw the whole picture and wish to compensate by offering 150 for a pair of slippers which I wanted. Nice lady but ran of my size. Too bad. ha.

I were supposed to see clear blue afternoon sky and then.. it became sunset.
But still, we managed to arrive in Bangkok safely and checked into Pathumwan Princess (click on photo to enlarge)
I forgot when we ate these. Definitely one of those days.
And yea, we went Chinatown.
Japanese Buffet @ some Jap restaurant in a VIP room. Great food! Generous servings. Large variety to choose from!
Lastly, Pathumwan Princess's Club Lounge. Love the deco!
Enjoy your weekend people!
