BKK Trip (21st-22nd Dec 06)

Ok, super duper late post....

The long awaited trip to BKK began on 21st Dec. Departing with Tiger Airways @ the Budget Terminal was an experience. You'll only see 1 restaurant - HANS at the terminal. However, after going through the departure gates, you'll find Polar, Genki Sushi, O'Briens, Killiney. As Tiger Airways do not allocate seats before hand, it's a 1st come 1st serve basis. Typical Singaporeans rushed in when the boarding gates open. We kept it cool and boarded the plane last, as we did not want stand in the queue for like 15 mins?

1st day
- Check in
- Proceeded to Erawan Shrine (can't pray that day)
- Walked over to Central World
- Bought Naraya products & Mister Donut
- Went to Food Hall aka supermarket to rest and eat
- Bought 3 bottles of mini body spritz
- Went back to "hotel"
- Met up with Mummy's friend for seafood dinner. The journey took 1 hour plus *faintz* but the many dishes made up to the long journey.

2nd day
- Platinum Mall with Loiusa and others
- Shopped till I dropped (6 hrs)
- Getting a cab to drive us back was crazy as no taxi wants to take us due to our hotel location and some do not want to go by meter.
- Head back for dinner

As the Malaysians were also there this time round, it was like a family gathering (though we're not related to them). Dinner was 2 big round table filled with home cooked food everyday (tom yum goong, chicken, fish, vege, pork, salad, wine, fruits etc). With the good weather and good company, it was a heartwarming dinner in the open space. Plus, food was never ending there.

. bread sold along the streets (simple yet nice) . small you tiao .
. salad sauce . pad thai .

3rd day
- More shopping at MBK, Bonaza Mall
- Bought so much loots to satisfy my cravings of spending $$
- Went back for dinner again
- Went for a "tour" around BKK. The driver drove us around to have a look of the X'mas lighting of those shopping malls.
- Stopped at the Palace (where the very much respected King lives). With all the lights, the palace is practically "glowing" - Nice!!

4th day
- Breakfast at Siam Paragon
- Love the Food Hall (imagine choc fondues, mini sashimi bar, salad bar + so much more in the Supermarket)

. choc fondue in the supermarket .

. nice boxes . foodcourt .

- Lunch was @ Fuji which serves Japanese food at quite low prices.
- Prayed @ Erawan Shrine
- Back for dinner

Siam Paragon - high end boutiques, restaurants with nice interior decoration, good-looking people). In short - a place for the atas

5th day
- Breakfast followed by packing up
- Met up with a chief monk and received blessing from him. However, I missed the chance of getting advises from him as he went for a short nap before I had the chance to speak to him. Next time, perhaps.
- Off the airport
- 9pm Home Sweet Home

It's Twins!

Mummy squealed with surprise when she crack 1 egg and discovered 2 yolks in it.

So there you've any it - double yolk for brekkie.

The Cannery

Visited The Cannery yesterday with Lx and her colleagues yesterday. Since it was V-day, it would be quite boring to go home after work, therefore to her surprise and delight, I gave her a 90% confirmation on going.

Dinner was a simple fare of fish and chips @ Fisherman's Wharf. Well, for the price ($6.50), there's not much to rant or rave about. Anyway, there was practically no crowd at The Cannery. After walking 1 round to check out the cool clubs there, we decided to have a drink at the Fashion Bar. Due to miscommunication, we did not get the 1-1 drink promo and so we paid $15 for a drink.

Next stop for our "sight seeing tour" was Mos, followed by Club Momo. Oh yah, we even popped by BarFly by telling them that we'll like to have a look. The PR officer was very friendly and even reminded us there'll be free Vodka for groups of 4 ladies. The place was so atas but we did not stay there for the free drinks.

Though, it took me quite some time to realize the change there, I'm super surprised by the major change @ Clark Quay and finally understand why SG would soon become a Tourism Hub!!!!

I suck at Math

Can I just rant again on how BAD I'm with Math!!!

I seriously have problems 'understanding' number. I listened and tried to absorb whatever the lecturer was saying, however upon trying out the questions, I just cannot relate to it…

*stress*

Ewww...

3rd bridging module is Business Statistics = MATHS!!!

Whoa hahaha...

"Your favorite subject" Sis said.

All I can wish for myself now is - Good Luck!

Turning Back

A decision to head back to my beautician was made on last Monday night.
I wont deny the fact the clinic had indeed helped to clear most of my oil clogs and now I've to concentrate on removing my marks (or so they say)

However, an average of $400 a month is simply was out of my budget and having spent about $2k - $2.5k over just 3 months, I decided that something else should be able to help. Unfortunately, my beautician made me realized that my forehead and chin are still clogged (so its not only just the marks that need help). So, I've decided to use back her product to help remove my marks and perhaps get another product to help minimize the clogging.


Whether a product contains chemicals is not really a factor now (think it nv really was). Seriously, majorities of the products in the market have always contained chemical. And when $$ is an issue, is it really a concern for me if the products works though it does contain chemical?? My answer would be No. Like organic food, botanical products etc, they're more for the rich or for one who is willing to part with the sum of $$.

Anyway, I'm sorry to say that my faith and patience did not last long and again all I can hope is for the best.
