im back from the Land of Smiles =)
its really 3 days non stop of 'Shop till Drop' activities one after another.
6 June 2009, 7.15am, 3K511flew off to Bangkok just as the sun is rising. first time taking budget air. its really budget. as usual i just cant stand the feeling of plane taking off. but now i dare to look out of the window more often! *proud of myself*
reached BKK at 9.35am our time. feeling hungry. grab luggage and took cab to Asia Hotel. their traffic argh is really bad. took an hour to reach the hotel. hungry. piggy went to bath while i unpack the stuff then set off to Chaktuchap Market. HUNGRY, i wan my Mr Bean! its already 130pm Singapore time when we reach Chaktuchap. as all may know, the phrase 'a hungry (wo)man is an angry (wo)man' is created for me. so i was losing my temper bcuz i dun see food!!! hahahaha. finally got a kerab at 2pm after starving for 8 hours from the time i wake up lolx.
after filling stomach = shopping time!
non stop shopping till 5pm. really walk until i cant walk anymore. the market is too big!!! and they got really cheap stuff there i must say. got one time piggy look really angry and worried when he turn back and couldnt find me. i was also angry bcuz he just keep walking and din hear me call out to him. and also bcuz i still hungry. blea~ by the end of the shopping my hand was so full with all the heavy stuff. surrender and went back to hotel to put the stuff and bath before going Suan Lum for dinner and of cuz more shopping!
piggy ask me to choose what to eat and i accidentally chose one expensive restaurant. oops! finally first proper meal of the day at BKK. did the manicure for just 100baht!!!! got lost in Suan Lum and couldnt find the way out after shopping. got a drink at Starbucks then walk down their street and passby Pak Pong. then overshot the BTS and ended up walking alot of yuan wang lu. lolx. went to 7-11 to stock up LOTS of water before heading back to hotel. alot of pple told me Asia Hotel is 'not clean' and old and stuff. but i find it alright leh. will go back to the hotel again next time i go BKK. dead tired after whole day of walking.
7 June 2009couldnt wake up in the morning. left with only half an hour for breakfast lolx. after that went up to bath and continue to sleep wahaha. their shopping centres dun open so early so its alright.
today's plan is Platinum Mall! its really not call the fashion mall for nothing. the whole 5 storey mall, at least 2 times the size of Far East, got nothing but just fashion stuff! walk and walk and buy and buy. omg. just so big and so many stuff! already needa drag myself to walk by the 3rd level cuz leg aching. so rested over lunch at their food court. piggy went to buy their authentic Thai food for me. im really amazed at their vege diet!!! lunch was fantastic.
then continue with the remaining 2 levels. came out of the mall and its freaking hot outside so went to hide in A&W! gosh i miss their curly fries and waffles with ice cream!!!!!!!! can see that piggy love it too. shopped abit at their 'Sim Lim Square' then back to hotel to put the stuff and bath again. cant stand the weather. and we overshot our hotel cuz we went the wrong direction. ahh!! second yuan wang lu!!
initially piggy plan to take me to their Chinatown for dinner. in the end change plan and went to MBK instead. we alight at the wrong station AGAIN and walk more yuan wang lu before finding it. wah kaoz. its another super big shopping centre. din buy alot of things there bcuz purpose was to just shortlist the things we want and come back to buy tmr. went to G-Mask my phone! so bling now! piggy got his phone a makeover too =) by the time we want to go for dinner, the food court is closing. coupon cannot refund =( wasted 200baht. so we went to their famous steamboat MK Restaurant instead. hearty meal. piggy keep commenting their stock is so nice. and after so much food, its only 406 baht for the 2 of us!!!
the mall was close by the time we finish dinner. its only like 930pm their time only. so early lolx. they were having pasar malam outside the BTS and its more shopping there till late. the moment my head hit the pillow i was off to lala land.
8 June 2009that lazy piggy just refuse to get out of the bed for breakfast! left with half an hour for breakfast again hahaha. dreading to go back and pack the stuff bcuz i dunno where to squeeze them!!!!!! *faints* its our 27 months anniversary today! and i knew piggy forgot about it from the look on his face. blea! had to check out at 12pm so left our baggage at the lobby, book a bloody expensive cab to bring us to the airport later and went Siam. piggy was so broke after paying the cab fare. poor thing. so today its my treat.
Siam Paragon is so beautiful. they got Jimmy Choo!!!!! *went crazy* all expensive stuff so piggy say its just to show me how posh the place is only lolx. piggy tell me die die muz try their McDonald's pork burger. im so addicted to it!!
left Siam for MBK again.
i told myself no more shopping cuz i cant carry them anymore but u know.. just cant resist. hehehe. and that naughty piggy scare the hell out of me till i cry when he show me some damn gross fried creepy crawlie. humph!!! not fun ok.
had shark fin for lunch at their food court! and bird nest for dessert. and Dunkin Donuts for tea break. good life man. hahaha. head back to hotel to collect the baggage to go airport.
our flight is ay 9.15pm Bangkok time. bcuz of the atrocious traffic piggy book the cab at 5.30pm lolx. lucky we give ourselves so much time to buffer. the stupid jam is really jialat and i almost puke when i reach the airport. rounded up the trip with a tom yum soup for dinner then time to check in liao. both of us struggling with all the bags. the flight got delayed till nearly 10pm.
9 June 2009, 00.00hrs, 3K514flight was smooth at first then suddenly got hit by turbulence at midnight. first time experiencing that and the plane was shaking so badly, going up and down. *go crazy* thats really scary. lucky got piggy with me.
reached Singapore at 12.50am Singapore time. with so much walking, the sun and the heavy baggage, all i could think of is to hit my bed!! dun even have the mood to shop in DFS. hehe.
and i lost track of how many stupid and silly things i have done during these 3 days. haixx. piggy, why did u choose a sotong as ur gf? tsk tsk.
