Bangkok Trip Conclusion

Hello! I'm back to complete my Bangkok tour entry! Ahahaha! I know, pretty darn late! Been busy with school! Accounting, Marketing & Macroeconomics! Tons of words!

Yes, day 2 at Chatuchak Market! The most anticipated place of the holiday cause I want to get my hands on those cute hedgehogs! Wahaha!
We were there too early, like around 9a.m.

And the shops started to open up at around 10:30a.m.

The legendary coconut ice cream of Chatuchak!

Yum, yum! Something I haven't seen in Singapore!

Went to MBK after unloading our stuffs back at hotel. Oh! And I saw hedgehogs selling at around $25SGD each! And sugar gliders! Didn't ask for the price for that though, hahaha! MBK was boring...

Day 3 was spent at Platinum Fashion Mall again... Well, girls gone wild! They need to shop till they drop! Love & I went to the 76 or 79 level, can't remember, to check out the view from highest point in Bangkok! Some pictures:





Killer traffic! Forgot whats the place of the name we were heading when I took this picture. Some Super market or what...

Highlight of the trip! Insects eating! Ahaha! I know its not of a big deal but this is one of the reason I went there... But they tasted pretty weird. One has to try to describe! Ahaha!

Some of the insects! 2 for each of us!

Me eating the huge ass grasshopper!

Lynette eating her cricket! Ahahaha!

That's all for now! Actually I went to Batam View Resort again on the 6th of August! Nothing much to blog about since I've been there countless times... But this was a new experience cause my beloved Lynette tagged along! Wahaha! Ciao!

Bangkok Trip! Day 1!

I'm back from Bangkok! Was a good trip I would say, although I spent most of the time in Platinum Fashion Mall... Chatuchak Weekend Market was interesting, saw many things ranging from animals, food, fashion apparels, etc. You name it, they have it! Hahaha! Shopping was super duper tiring, especially when 19 out of 20 shops sell female stuffs... But still, traveling with 3 lovely girls was a new unique experience for me. Shall let the pictures do some talking.

Preparing for take off! Nice cloudy morning!

That's me! All excited for the plane ride as usual.

Up, up in the air!
Check out the paddy fields! First sign of entering Thailand!

Reached Bangkok airport, and took a cab to Baiyoke Sky Hotel! Their taxi meter is actually pretty cheap, we traveled around 37km for only ฿370baht(SGD$12), including ฿70baht for troll and ฿50baht surcharge!

The tallest hotel in Southeast Asia! Baiyoke Sky Hotel! 309m!

Hotel was alright, friendly & helpful staffs, 24 hours restaurant which serves nice and affordable food! I think we got upgraded for free to superior suite due to insufficient rooms. Our rooms were dope! Living room and bed room with walk in wardrobe and huge toilet!

The hallway in the bedroom that leads to the wardrobe and toilet. Didn't take much picture of the room.

So we unloaded our stuffs and off we went to explode this part of Bangkok! The street was pretty chaotic, vehicles all over, people pushing carts and narrow pathways, but we managed to reach our destination, Platinum Fashion Mall! The reason my lovely girl chose this hotel was because its located near this Fashion Mall.

Lunch! Glass noodle! The spices was so hot that I had to give up my noodle as I mixed too much of it unknowingly...

Fried oyster with egg! This was pretty good.

Pity I didn't have picture of their mango with sticky rice, that's like the best dessert ever! Hahaha! Went back to hotel in the evening, had dinner, took a stroll around hotel area and rested for the day since we all woke up early to catch the flight. That's all for day 1! Stay tuned!

Towards the quarter!

Hohoho! I'm still alive! & its July! This is the month I enlisted 2 years ago! Man, time flies! Haha! I'm currently clearing my leaves and offs. 3 more working days and I'll officially become a NS-men!

A series of events are going to happen this month... Bangkok vacation, back to studying... Hmmm hope I can cope with these.

And about my daily life, nothing much, just eating and having fun all day! Slacking to be exact. I've even grown a real disturbing tummy. Got to start running but its hard... The time never seems to be right. I guess I really need a change!

Below are the reasons why I've some excessive fats on my stomach!

Home-made sunny side up and pancakes!

Plaster and Kor-song from Prata House!

Duck rice!

Some yummy noodle!

Wack chilly soft drinks with high sugar content due to warm weather!

鼎泰丰! My favorite fried rice!

Katong 328 Laksa! Unbeatable!

Pepper Lunch's ice cream! Affordable and taste good!

How can I not have fats?! But I will fight this battle and win!

Skinny Pizza is for the skinnies.

Went to check out Skinny Pizza at Wheel Lock Place on Saturday and it turned out to be a great disappointment. I think they shouldn't even be called pizza. All I see were crispy thin doughs with ingredients on top. Well, they have this Lobster Pasta which looked pretty decent... Not sure about the taste as we didn't try.

Try at your own risk :D ahaha!

Forgot the names of the pizzas, but this one is basically like curry chicken... Can't even taste the yogurt stated in the menu...

Just meat balls.

This one tasted the best out of the 3.

And we saw this on the way home. A dude actually went to shake him up and asked him where he was supposed to get off, haha!

Birthday eve treats!

My baby brought me to eat at The Magic of ChongQing Hotpot at TangLin Shopping Center! A nice place for steamboat! Good ambiance and nice service! Their beef are so nicely sliced that we only had to dip it into the soup for around 8 seconds! And their 8 treasure tea tasted pretty refreshing!

The name of the store!

Spicy and chicken soup!

The babe & her fish paste! Oops, all in the pot already, haha!

My turn!

& Häagen-Dazs! All free for me :D Strawberry & Mango and Passion Fruit!

Then we caught a movie, Something Borrowed! Not bad for a love story, haha! Headed back to Yishun and bought beancurb to Yishun Dam as dinner before heading home! Haha, what a day!

Yummy!

Certified glutton! Hahaha!

Thanks my beloved girlfriend for the treats! Damn, the calories intake for the day must be sky rocket! Time to exercise! That is if I can get my lazy ass to move :D hahaha!

I am not dead!

Hello! Long time no blog! Hahaha! Check out my ORD countdown timer on the right! Its down to less than 2 months! Gosh... Time flies! & I'm going to be 22 years old in no time! Hahaha!

Should I get Iphone 4 or should I wait for Iphone 5, which is said to be released in September. My contract have already ended since April... What a dilemma...

And I want to go overseas in July! But I'm kind of tight on budget... Can't go anywhere further than Malaysia, sucks!

Oh, I've been accepted by RMIT, hope it won't be too tough! Starting school in 1st August I think... Which means I need a part-time job soon!

Okay, thats all for now, hope that I'll get a camera phone soon and revive my blog like how it used to before I enlisted :D ciao!

Gantz rocks!
