Haha okay it's time I blogged about my holidays.
Decided if I just let each day roll by the length of my eventual post will be fucking crazy..
You can either scrutinise this detailed post or just look at the pictures for an idea huh.


BANGKOK was awesomejuice, I'm sorta tempted to delve into daily details so bear with me for a bit.


We had this crazy 59baht (SGD 2+) thai noodles buffet; well t'was just laksa noodles and many different sauces. Melly and I both had "Spicy" at first and DIED after the first mouth. Seriously, this coming from someone who loves spicy shit. Should've seen us


On (my) first night there with the girls we went to this night bazaar thingy just below our hotel (We stayed at Baiyoke Boutique, pretty awesome place beside Bangkok's tallest building). Was buying 100baht shoes when this weird guy talked to us, claimed he was from Pakistan, asked where we stayed etc. It got a bit weird so we moved away, only for him to "Hello, excuse me" us all of a sudden. T'WAS FREAKY. We tried running to some massage shops on another street, and without warning HE APPEARED BESIDE US AGAIN. FUCKING FREAKY. We chionged into one of the shops and did our nails.
This guy who happened to be the son of the Massage Parlour's owner kinda fell in love with Melly ! HAHA super funny we devised ways and means to exploit his crush.

Visited MBK for my birks as well, good thing the shop's still there :) Fell in love with an awesome shop called Beauty Buffet, t'was like a cutesy version of Body Shop if you get what I mean. Bought my awesome liquid eyeliner there !


Day II was Chatuchak, wasn't as hot as the last time I was there I guess. Crazy shopping, bargaining and spending brought my shoe tally to 7 LOL. We also decided male shopkeepers RULE cause they tend to give in when we bargain in the "teh" way. Melly and I successfully reduced the price of our hats from 450 to 200 >:D


Suan Lum Night Bazaar was kinda like Chatuchak, but I really liked this part of our trip because we got to immerse ourselves into the Thai culture, definitely a good experience. They gave each of us a lighted candle, apparently they light them during Fathers' and Mothers' Day so as to signify a bright future. You could really feel the pride radiating from each Thai as they proudly sang their anthem in celebration of the King's birthday. Spoke to some Thais and t'was really heartwarming to see that they had the King as their phone display picture.

OH I also got the BEST-EST ManUtd memorabilia here. Still don't have picts of it yet.. So as Barney'd say.. WAIT FOR IT......


Went to our favourite Platinum the next day, was some crazy shopping and I'm proud to say we finished all 5 levels (well, kinda :D)! Which reminds me, the lanes in each level are named by famous shopping streets in different countries, and I finally figured out where Nathan is (Hong Kong) ! Dropped by Big C and swept 4567382 packets of Lays home. Hahaha past experience has it that this is a must-buy, trust me.


Dinner was seafood buffet at Baiyoke Sky Hotel (the aforementioned tallest building), view was awesome, lots of photospots ! These chefs dressed up and did their own rendition of Stomp :) There were lotsa different cuisines, Jiayi Lee and I also had mussels to the max. Tried their Thai desserts as well, most of which were pretty weird. Btw, loved the magenta flower I was wearing on my head :)


The last day was pure sightseeing; Floating market, Rose Garden (AWESOME FLORAL DISPLAYS), flower market, Wat Pho etc. Had Chang beer, which imo really sucked.

There you have it. So much to love about BKK, I mean, 8 pairs of shoes for less than SGD120 SERIOUSLY !?!?!!! My favourite place was the Vespa night market (we don't have pictures), well it wasn't a commercialised tourist area so we really got to see how Thais go about their daily lives. In this case t'was just like our Pasar Malams, many stalls, even their own idea of a Neoprint booth. Was a lot of fun, just that we got stalked AGAIN. Prolly going back next summer.

313 with the girlfriends after I touched down, had Marche and good ol' catching up :) Pardon the horrible photo cause t'was the first time I used my new Samsung. It's an awesome investment what with 12.2MPX, smile detection, self-portrait help (for you to camwhore properly) and BEAUTY SHOT !!! (like smooth skin all)

Taiwan was pretty darn boring, perhaps cause I've a particular aversion to tours. Prefer planning our own trips cause it gives you more freedom and you don't have to adhere to a fixed itinerary. Spontaneity .\../ thanks.


Pretty much what I wore for the 4 days in Taiwan.
Day I: UO top, NF skinnies, favourite esprit jacket (the only jacket I brought on the trip) and my trusty birks
Day II: Wetseal top, NF shorts (okay I'm a NF fan so shoot me), trusty jacket and birks
Day III: Magenta 3/4 from BKK, acid-wash shorts, trusty jacket and C&K boots
Day IV: Batwing top from BKK, NF skinnies, trusty jacket and MY FAVOURITE SHOES AT THE MO, the Faux Docs !



ZZZZ SUPER TIRED. Training at 11 tmr gotta wake fucking early.
Got ponded in mud during training today, WITH ICE CUBES and 100plus in my hair OMG.
