Totally overdue. More overdue stuff to come. Thanks to Mr Procrastinator.
- jet ski and para-sailing and the speedboat!
- windy beaches
- (some) comfy hotel rooms
- nightly secret fashion show with vicki (HAHA)
- eating more western food than thai (love the breakfast)
- massages
- zooming around on their roads on cars and bikes (bummer we didnt get to ride the bikes ourselves... WHY...)
- getting a lousy pok tattoo which disappeared after 5 days....
- bargaining like crap for 10 baht and then realising its only 50cents sing -_-
- learning from justin how to peel prawn damn fast (but I cant really remb now... hmmm)
- laughing at vicki's unglam moments
- stoning while the guys tailor shirts
- shopping while the guys stone
- gossiping about how uncle the guys were
- Platinum Mall is like the BESTEST place to shop
- it sucks that the mall mentioned above closes at 7pm (?!?)
- oh! Almost forgot about the gorgoeous trannys there. The show they put on was kinda blah except one scene which stayed very vividly in my mind for quite some time. The show had guys and girls (ie. tranny) dancing and I couldnt help but wonder if their promotion in the industry was co-related to their transformation from a guy to a "girl". Anyways, there was this guy who I guess was the lead in the show whom I had a hard time visualising as a girl. That was until his solo act where he was half dressed up and made up as a female while the other side of him was male. And he sang a love song to himself which could be erotic at best but which I found quite traumatising. I think I probably watched too much sci-fi shows or what but that's how I imagine how the souls of trannys will look like.
- cab fares are SO cheap(S$3 for a 20-30 min ride. This can probably take me one busstop distance here)
- BKK shopping malls are HUGE and super atas
- The only thing we can afford in the shopping malls are bras. And only those on discount. -_-
- spent more than half the money we brought on food and hotels...
- the directions on the roads in BKK changes with time and place! *happily driving... suddenly in the way of oncoming traffic! quick swerve... jam brake... honking.. general chaos*
- night markets are not so fun
- BKK's weather is super shuang
- Pattaya's hotel's blankets cant keep you warm
- the bus in BKK is more comfortable than our beloved flight
- some of the salesgirls will totally freak you out when they start speaking to you in a deep manly voice
- post trip food poisoning (bleahs... i dont know how vicki can shop despite that shitty feeling, pun not intended)
- beer (I was red and my eyes were green. HOW did that happen) and the conking out (cui)
- horrible choice of channels on the hotel tv
- lazing around (and laughing about how horrendously lazy we are) in hotel rooms is kind of fun
- for some reason, we kept forgetting to eat and probably are the only weird bunch of people who lost weight on a holiday
- the flight back (my neck almost broke off)
- the arrival at the budget terminal (majiam landed in Africa or something)
- coming back to spore (oh cruel reality!)
I started out really bloodly ambitious and wanted to name this post "101 Memories of the Thailand Trip". But as anyone can see, this is nowhere near #101. So I decided to scale it down to 50. Even then, I cant think of enough things to add. (Not that it wasnt fun! I just cant think of any right now. Sadness.) So there. It stops at 35.
