SAWADEEKAAAA!!!! im back.. belief it or not, i missed spore heat. no kidding man.
it was a whopping 38 degress celcius there.. almost attempted to fry an egg on my hair.
decided not too. if not, its a waste of 90 bucks of rebonded hair. CHET!

major highlights....

• i got on a budget airline for the first time & i already hate the airport security.. (happily threw away my dad's toothpaste. dah susah2 bawak. sheesh!)

• the coolest sunrise greeted me on my way to bangkok. (i fought with the brother for the window seat. heheh.)

• suvarnabhumi airport in bangkok is the largest airport in SEA with the FEWEST direction signs ever! terrible. but its a really nice airport nonetheless...

• our bus/coach was freaking HUUUUGE!!! we climbed 2 flights of short steps to reach our seats. the mother had a good exercise though. hee...
  
  
• we spent the 1st night in pattaya which is a good hour & half from bangkok.. i foresaw damn long bus rides for those 5 days. o_O

• i saw the prettiest orchid garden ever (prettier than spore's ok.. not kidding!)
  
  
• i paid 50 baht for orang utans to grope my boobs. ok, im friendly. but not THAT friendly. i wanted a happy picture. they took advantage. one even kissed me.. mom got the same treatment. we poor poor women.
  
  
• i watched a pondan show. like hello?? i felt effing inadequate standing beside them can. pretty shits i tell yoo.. & their geleks are TO DIE FOR. just dnt let them speak. its more than enough to contain urself. hah!! & i ddnt want to pay 40 baht to have my picture taken. enjoying their "beauty"from afar is enuf for me. heh..

• i went parasailing! omg. i was so "hyped" to feel the bloody harnest trying to squeeze the fats out of my fat ass. the masked dudes pulled the rope damn tight lah! riiite.. but seriously, the feeling of flying with a speedboat pulling me was just WOW.

• i jetskied with the brother. this time i was smashed in the middle coz the thai dude was helping the bro to manipulate the gear & all. basket. (was i invisible or wat?!) oh oh!! we saw the prettiest rainbow ever. its nothing like we've seen before & it was stretched over the sea.. ah.. the wonders of nature... i felt so estatic then caaaan...

• we banana boated. called ourselved the blacksparrows coz the 5 of us realised we were all in black. hah.. & makcik almost qatam-ed the whole quran coz i think she was scared shitless.. me & irah just laughed till our jaws ached. hah...
  
  
• we headed back to bangkok & chatuchak-ed.. HAPPENING LAH.. COZ IT WAS THE START OF MY SHOPPING SPREE.. =) my bargaining skills are still tip-top.. i was even complimented. im oh-SO-proud. =)

• chao praya river is amazing. i expected a lot of floating markets but sadly only 3 came up to us. i felt so tourist-y.. haha..

• took 2 hours to drive into ayuthayya. the ruins which was previously covered in gold & where something historic took place. dnt expect me to recall lah. my history was a pathetic 50/100 back in sec 1 & 2. i was just told the burmese stole the gold & chopped of the statue heads.
  

• dreamworld was a blast. i got myself all PALE coz of the idiotic haunted house. (ddnt help that the 2 girls in front were shouting like crazy & irah was bursting the vessels in my hand. & the brother was creepily poking our backs & making sudden screeches. IDIOT!!!) then we go-karted with wet clothes on. very very smart. hah..

• an elephant stopped right in front of us right in the middle of a pathway. spreaded its hind legs, started to shit & pee.. wat perfect timing laaarh.. dnt worry. pictures of the WHOLE process were taken. ahha...

• and hello MAH BOON KRONG... shopping paradise aka the place where i burnt 50% of my moolahs. & the place where some bag seller sardinely told me i looked thai & philippino. he ddnt belief i was a singaporean at all. like wth??!!

• i took the train which crosses over the DEATH RAILWAY.. (dig up ur history ppl) had a crush over this cute high sch kid in the train..SEMPAT! (pedophile i know. but i swear he looked only a year younger lorh. ) saw the most breathtaking landscapes. went into the border of Burma.
  

• and right at that moment, the brother pointed up to the sun & we saw a rainbow circle around it. it was SO beautiful that i stared at it for a whole minute not mattering if the sun was hurting my eyes. & the "smart" brother told me it wasnt rainbow but the ozone layer closing in. i feel so lucky hes smart. chet!
  
• watched 200 pounds beauty with irah & the bro in our hotel room.. played UNO & taidee.. (god knows how long i havent played that) & laughed till our jaws ached. ate kimchi lays. i swear thais have the nicest crackers with the most delicious flavours.

omg!! i miss thailand already. i seriously do. its by far the most adventurous/fun/enjoyable & not to mention educational holiday i ever had with my family.. the pace there is so relaxed as compared to ours. duh! they had more daytime. (they're an hour behind us)

i picked up some usable thai language. i ate the SYIOK-EST tom yam ever! i also made a new friend. she was my best gal pal during those 5 days. we laughed at the most idiotic things. had so much fun with our kimchi & beauty night.. shouting "NAK CHAP" (inside joke) at irrelevant times.

i miss our tour guide david who has 3 wives in 3 different countries. i miss seeing his shocked face everytime we carry excessive amounts of plastic bags over our hands. we had the cutest & coolest bus driver. who never fails to smile whenever i say "koppunkaaaaaa" so loudly as im alighting the bus.

many other happening things happened. but there. that's the gist of it. i foresee myself gg back there sometime in the near future. irah, maybe we will go there ourselves, no? hahah...

i shall keep this trip close to my heart for a really really long time to come.

as for now, ill be driving the mother to work for the last time tmr. damn saddening.. ill miss our gf moments..
