came back from my trips to bangkok and luang prabang. wanted to upload the pictures but a bit sloooow lehz. so i gave up. so i'll write instead of posting. so please make do with whatever i have in facebook until i find the mood to upload them again. =D
went bangkok with lover after some spontaneous planning and stayed like 3.5 days there. did some walk around. caught a few movies. chilled out a bit and did some major shopping at juz one place.
we stayed at baiyoke boutique hotel. it's near pratunam center where everyone claims the shopping was good. and coz we went on weekdays and left on sat morning we didn't manage to conquer chatuchak. but yeah. may be back for that another weekend. but then again. i may consider going elsewhere.
we took our first ever tut tut and was 'conned' into having lunch at a restaurant where the prices were a bit high end. but the tom yam was really good. the prawns were like damn fresh too! and not to mention ultra big! =D
then we ventured about and asked our way to the big c and center world. big c is like our giant. a supermart in a sense. and we spent a bit shopping for toiletries and browsing around the shelves. probably coz of the exchange rate i thought it was wise to spend a bit on travel sizes of toiletries. hahaha.
caught our very first movie of surrogates in big c. not bad. reminds me a bit of i robot though. not that it's a bad thing. seats were big and comfy and there weren't much people so lover and i were curled up on the seats and i even stretched my legs to the front seat at times. ha! =D
we tried some sugar cane ice cream with toppings. not bad but a tad too sweet for my liking. =X and we had mac too! pork burgers! and lover saw a eye candy! hahaha. she was so happy and ecstatic lo.
along the way to mbk and siam paragon we bought a few items. like tops and belt and accessories. coz there was this night market along the streets. crowded but it's an experience in itself.
the next few days were spent shopping at mbk (which was really really good) and catching 2012 at siam paragon. apparently new moon is a big whoo-ha over there coz there were gigantic posters. lifesize cutouts and a countdown timer for the movie alone! my tian!
also saw the 7 wonders built using legos in paragon. christmas decorations.
we had foot massages the first 2 days and indulged ourselves in manicure and pedicure and body massage on the last. damn good! mani and pedi were a bit scary though coz they were my first. but ok la. at least they look nice now. hahaha!
went over luang prabang on sat morning and stayed till early this morning. details are in facebook.
but i guess i found my courage. to travel alone and all. it's quite interesting when you do things your own time and do what you want. the scary part was the fear that no one could understand me coz of the language barrier. but i guess if i manage to survive through it. it's not that bad is it? =P
heard a few news when i came back today. allan mah promoted to rm. ckn5. sophia promoted to rm. bpp. happy for both of them. but it means that i have one less kaki to hang out with le. damn. =X anyway. hawa's giving birth today. so i wish her all the best and may the baby be as healthy as can be! =D
ok. thou shall go off now coz *b is calling! =D
