BANGKOK - APRIL 18-21

I came home from a flight on the 17th morning and had to leave for my BKK trip on the 18th morning! D: Uoh, that's reaaal tiring. No fun at all! 

This trip will be the last leisure trip I can enjoy, seriously. I don't think it's likely that in the next half year I would have the time to enjoy such trip!



DAY ONE



Bought this Chanel foundation at the airport! I don't really like my mac one, thus decided to get this to try! ^^


Had a harddd time looking for our hotel! The taxi driver dropped us off at some shopping mall and told us to walk in and it'll be the hotel we're looking for. #wtf 
I had to ask SO many people and walked SO SO much to get to that fucking hotel. I was with Andy and Bf's Mum while he was with his Bro and the Gf AND!! We haven't gotten prepaid cards so it was totally impossible for us to call for help. Luckily I asked one of the stall owner and she's SO helpful! She wrote the address of the hotel in Thai and helped to call the hotel to check for more information on how to reach it! Thank god. She will be blessed.

It was much much easier to ask for directions with the Thai address! 



Checked into the hotel and the room was smaller than expected! One thing I love about it is the bed is huge! Big enough for 3 person and there's wifi~  But I don't like the location. It's too in-the-alley and taxis doesn't go all the way in thus we've got to walk and walk inside every single day and also walk all the way out to take a cab. 



This is the hotel if you want to know. Citin Pratunam . SGD59/night w/ brekkie. I didn't try the brekkie thou, was still sleeping :x  Wouldn't book this hotel again on the next visit! :\


After we dropped all our stuff in the room, we wanted to go for the Wanton mee, but it was closed already, so we just bought some junkfood from the roadside and went to catch a tuktuk to MBK.




The cupcorns in BKK are really nicer! Hmm.. 



I love this!! I had it before during my last trip, thus when I saw this I quickly went "I WANT THIS I WANT THIS~~~" Then everybody also want hahaha :D


Enjoying my chayen on a tuktuk~



The first shop we went to in MBK was Naraya. Edwin's Gf wanted to buy and I thought it was just be a few.......... But who knows....... She bought like more than 10 items, I think.  >.<  Crazy shopper.




After that, we went to Siam Square area to walk around! Edwin's Gf damn scary!! She bought like 32 bottles of nail polishes of all different shades!! Before she started choosing, she said, "I wanna get the colours that I don't have" , I thought it was also only gonna be a few bottles like not over 5? Wow. When we were at MBK, she also bought those mac makeup products, I think also more than 15 items.



Later at night, we went to Saphan Phut Night Market! The Bf and I went there before, so we can somehow be their guide hehe :b



Saw so many bunnies I feel like I want to get a bunny so badly as well~  :\








I have no idea why this Parrot is naked. And it's super noisy lei, kept chirping and chirping omgzz so ugly already still so attention seeker -.- But I admit it looks damn pitiful la...





Later on, we went to have our late dinz at Chinatown! We patronised the green one! Hehe:b Which one do you prefer???


200Baht Bird Nest






Shiok. We ordered one more veg cus that plate was totally not enough for all 6 of us but I didn't took photo as it was quite far away from me.


Went back to the hotel after dinz!



Day Two






I'm kinda tempted to get extensions :(  I think I looked duper fat with this hair length D:





Pratunam area


Andy carrying the bag prepared for Edwin's Gf shopping loots.  :O






FINALLY~~~  Yumz Wanton Mee and Braised Pork Rice!! Oh yumz I love them so!



Dinner at Central World!


Steamboat buffet!



Mine! I loveeeeee the Grilled Saba Fish!


Bf's


My pot!


3 scoops of ice cream for dessert!  :D



Khaosan Rd after dinz! Went for a 1.5hr massage! Shiok!



The Quail Eggs I've been craving for!! :D




Went back to rest afterwards...



DAY THREE



Woke up with my whole body aching like don't know what shit!! Was so so fucking unwell. When I shower, I feel pain when I apply soap.. That's so baddd.. It feels like.. fever but I have no fever.  >.< 

I skipped brekkie as they all ate happily charging themselves with energy. I just.. I just don't have the appetite and the more I looked at the food, the more I dont feel like eating.. The smell of those food made it worst.  :( 

I walked around with em for a couple of hours until I really couldn't take it anymore. Constantly I've been telling the Bf that I'm aching all over and all he say is "You very weak one leh" .  D:  Maybe I didn't looked sick enough. And he also said I massaged the night before already still body ache so weak.. Sigh! They just thought I was tired and/or becus I didn't took brekkie. But anyways, when I really couldn't take it no more and sat down whenever and wherever I could, the Bf asked if I want to return to take a nap while they go to somewhere else and so I did. They brought me back and I napped for a few hours before they came back to put their things down and we went for dinz.


Felt so SO much better after the power nap. But I'm sure my body ache weren't due to the lack of sleep! Till now I still have no idea why did that happened and I pondered it might be the massage the previous night. I felt pain but I didn't told the massager to do it softer.  :\


Went for Japanese food!!



I couldn't finish it. I wasted quite a lot leh.. :(  Then I realised, on other tables, people share it among 2pax >.<  I wasted 2 parts of the rice, the 2 tofu rice, 1 egg, 1 crabstick, 1 or 2 fish.. I think that's quite enough for one more pax right?  :x




Went to Central World to walk around abit before heading over to the Big C Supermarket!


Saw this and the first thing I wanna do is check the price and take photo show Bestie, but.... I forgot the price. Hmmmm...... :x  BUT!!!! I remembered...... It's not very expensive and I thought it was quite a steal so I want to tell Bestie to buy it if she's going haha! This one too big I cannot bring back for her lol!! :D




Went back to put down our buys and headed off to Khaosan Rd again -.-  They wanted to drink thus me, the Bf and his mum went for a 1hr massage! Chill around for an hour more before heading back!



Chocolate Banana Prata!


DAY FOUR



Chatuchak Weekend Market that is!!! We only had a bit of time to shop before rushing to the airport for our flight! 


Love this~  I had it the previous time thus when I saw it I also straight away rush to the stall to order haha! The last time I went it was a long queue + long wait but this time, it was kinda empty?  :\




Left and rushed to the airport as our time was really tight already!! Chatuchak to Pratunam I think jammed for about an hour please -.-



Beautiful structure at the airport!






Some of the items I bought exclude the clothes!!



Shades (Top: MBK , Bottom: Saphan Phut)


Contact lenses (Street along Siam Square)


Chocolate sale at Central World. I bought these for the sake of the free gift which was 2 mug. Lol...
Total worth here: 405Baht


Huge bottle of Vitagen I love so so much I couldn't resist to bring it back :x
I had it for both the trips I had to BKK, when I first went I didn't know about it thus I missed the chance to have it that time haha! Wasted lor!!


And these............... From the Airport.


Shu Uemura eyelash curler duo set which costed like 920Baht, about SGD37.
NARS Bronzer, 1,150Baht, about SGD46.
Chanel Foundation SGD65.


I was so impulse on buying NARS product cus other than Sephora I don't think anywhere else carries this brand!! Edwin's Gf actually bought me a mac bronzer, but I tried it and didn't quite like it, thus I bought this NARS one to try! Haven't tried it though, guess I wouldn't be applying any make up for this few days till the opening of Twenty Third! >.<   And for the Shu Uemura eyelash curler, I don't know if it's cheaper in Sgp or not, but I've always wanted to try it as it seemed very popular and I still got quite a few thousand of Thai Baht left so I didn't think too much of it and bought it as well.  :\


Okay! That's the end of my BKK trip! Not as much photos as my previous trip as it's still all the same ol' things. Check out the sidebar for the previous trip to BKK if you haven't. Things are still pretty much the same although it's been more than a year! Be sure to visit BKK if you haven't cus it's an amazing place with amazingly friendly people! 

Oh!! One last note on BKK!!

I don't know if it's becus I've been to China and China is the place where bargaining is damn shiok and you can bargain as low as half of the price they offer but this trip to BKK made me realised that BKK is no longer like it used to be when we can also bargain with them... Their prices increased quite a lot and bargaining will only be like 10-20baht? That's quite bad. 

And I'm quite sad my Thai had deteriorated even though I've learnt some new words. My pronunciation has worsen and I lost the confidence to speak Thai :(



❛the end❜
