14-17 Dec at Land of Smiles =)

YO~ I'M BACK!!!
*muahahahz*
OMG, I luuuuurrrrvvveeee BKK~~!!
Things are soooooo cheap over there! Cheap cheap and cheap!! We felt like millionnaires over there lor! It's like the money is forever there for us to spend... *wahahahz*
Really felt like a tai-tai... *heez*
Our days there were full of laughter...lotsa laughter.
And of course,lotsa clothes, bags, shoes and food as well!! *wide grinz*
We shopped forever and ever, and we couldn't stop buying...
We bought so much stuff that we had to make a few trips back to our hotel to place our buyings, and my momsie had to even buy two more big bags to accommodate our prized possessions... *hahahz*
Unbelievable right...
I can't wait to share our exciting trip to Bangkok, the Land of Smiles (and nothing but that can describe BKK!!) with you peeps...
I forsake my unpacking and jumped right into blogging immediately okie! Ok lah...not 'immediately', but you know what I mean.
DAY 1 (14-DEC-07)
Make the long story short.
Day 1 was the most horrible day.
We reached BKK ard 3pm+ (their time), and the airport transfer coach ride took us more than an hour to reach our hotel due to the horrible traffic in BKK.
I tell you, the traffic was so jammed that our coach practically crawled to our hotel.
But all the drivers, including other road users, are all so skilled on the road. The people, regardless on wheel or foot, can criss-cross the roads as though they own the place... *tsk tsk*
Now imagine that happening in Singapore...
Do you hear lots of honking and jeering??
*nods*
By the time we reached our hotel, more than half the day was gone. *haiz* We went to Platinum for a super short shopping spree...
BKK malls close damn early lah!
Had a quick meal at their food centre...
Their pad thai are very delicious!!! I miss it already...
Didnt manage to buy much cos all the shops were closing, and it was only 7pm+... *tsk tsk*
As we walked back to our hotel, we passed by a stall selling fried silk worms, crickets, croaches, and grasshoppers.
And being daredevils, XY and I tried a fried grasshopper each. Damn nice.
Dun yee-er me now. It's really nice and crispy. It taste like 'MUMMY' actually, with the seasoning and all.
We bought one packet again the next day we went, and I plucked up my courage to try the silk worm.
*BLEAHZ*
I almost spat it out on the spot. Damn gross. It's soft and nua-nua inside.
*EEEEEEKKKS!!!!* The grasshoppers taste better.
Aniwae, we headed back to our hotel for a very early rest, and that's the end of Day One.
DAY 2 (15-DEC-07)
Rise and shine!
Ate breakfast at the hotel and we quickly taxi-ed down to Chaktuchak Market.
My gosh, it's really humongous. Can get lost inside the place.
To cut the story short, we shopped.
After going back to the hotel, we went to Siam Square, and bought some more clothes and accessories.
Saw Dunkin' Donuts and some other local snacks at MBK, and we quickly bought some. Headed back to hotel again to put our things and rest a bit.
As it was XY's 20th birthday, we went to a restaurant near Platinum for dinner as a celebration for her.
Dinner was fricking full but superduper delicious.
Momsie was soooo funnie that we couldnt stop laughing at her. *hahahz*
Went to Platinum for a short after-dinner exercise, and I forgot what I bought from there cos I bought too many le... *hehehz*
Back to the hotel (again!), but our night was not over yet.
XY got the idea of modelling and posing with our new purchases, and the madness began.
With the influence of lustylester, we turned ourselves into ANTM (the hilarious version):
We laughed so hard and loud that I was surprised nobody came knocking on our door to shut us up.
Modelling used up our energy for Day 2, and I never slept so well in a hotel before.
Happie 20th Birthday, XY. Hope you enjoy that day... =)
DAY 3 (16-DEC-07)
Our craziness from last night continues to this morning.
This time round, we hit the hotel's swimming pool and the pool-side bar.
It's so fun being amateur models. *hehehz*
So. Last battle before our trip ends.
Taxi-ed down to Chinatown for bird's nest.
We bought some local snacks again.
The Chinatown is also very huge and we any-oh-how walked and shopped. We then ended up in some mini streets selling wholesale items.
As we walked out to the main road, I was 'molested' by this son of a bitch madman.
I didnt notice him walking past me when I felt a sudden slap on the right side of my thigh.
FUCK.
It was damn painful cos he slapped real hard. I turned round and saw that bastard, and confirmed he was really a madman: his hair was dirty to the extent that they all crumpled up together like dry straws; he was half-naked, and his pants had two huge holes on his butt.
*TSK TSK* What rotten luck... *haiz*
Headed back to our hotel and rushed down to Platinum.
Yes, Platinum again.
We went there for 3 straight days in a row because it is near our hotel, and there are really lotsa things to buy there.
So, more clothes for us. *hehehz*
As for dinner, we takeaway A&W, KFC and durian for dessert back to our hotel to enjoy the comfort of eating on our beds.
On our way back, we saw this man (sth like the madman at Chinatown that morning) sitting on the side of the road, POKING A RUSTY-LOOKING NEEDLE INTO HIS TATTOO ON HIS ARM. He practically inserted the long needle in and out of his skin, and he behaved as though he can't feel any pain.
DISGUSTING.
We were soooooo scared that he would suddenly go crazy and poke us with the needle. Scary can! *shudders*
While eating KFC chicken, momsie (I think she is deeply influenced by our craziness) thought of something fricking hilarious and we acted out according to her idea.
Here's the video...
DAY 4 (17-DEC-07)
Last day at BKK le... *sobz*
Had a full breakfast at the hotel, and there's still some time left, so we went out for a while to take some pics...
It turns out that day was their Buddha Day or sth...
Saw many people wearing yellow shirts...
And then, before you know it, we were on our way to the airport...
Shopped some more at their DFS because we wanna spend finish our BAHT.
Momsie is very generous. Gave me all her money for me to spend. *heez*
In the end, I bought a GUCCI Envy Me perfume, ANNA SUI lip balm, SHU UMERA eyelash curler. Before departure at Singapore, I'd already bought one DKNY Be Delicious perfume and DIOR lip gloss. Upon arrival, an Absolute Disco Vodka.
So happie...
I'm gonna look rich, walk rich, and smell rich too.
*WIDE GRINZ*
