Bangkok Itinerary

Hello dears!

Ever feel so tired on Monday and thought u will be more energetic on Tuesday and discover that u are wrong in the end? I feel tired on some Mondays, more tired on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, and can't open my eyes and ears on Fridays.

Was dining at the Korean Charcoal BBQ Buffet today and found it hard to fight my eyes open. I already had a hard time stuffing in the leftovers on our table. What a day! But my week will end on Wednesday this week! Once I reach Bangkok on Thursday, I will be a totally different from how I am at work. I guess lazy people are like that! :D

Here is the Day 1 and 2 of the Bangkok Itinerary I have created.

Day 1
- Check in at hotel (Did I say we will be staying in Pratunum Pavilion Hotel?!!)
- Pratinum Fashion Mall
- Pratunum Wholesale Night Market
- Khao San Road Night Market

Day 2
- Bangkok Dolls Museum
- Krungthong Plaza , Apparel Center
- Siam Square
- Bonanza Mall
- Suan Lum Night Bazaar
- Khlong Lot Night Market

ALL SHOPPING! Lol. I always have the impression that Bangkok exists only for tourists to shop at. No sightseeing is ever needed. I wanna buy crochet shorts! :D



And here is Day 3 that Jun Wen planned.
- Taling Chan Floating Market
- Wat Pho
- The Giant Swing
- Democracy Monument
- Souvenior Shopping
- Mahakan Fort
- King Rama VIII Bridge
- Chao Phraya River & Waterways
- Wat Arun by the river at Sunset
- MBK Center
- Swensen’s Dessert


He compensated the shopping with a day of sightseeing!
His schedule is always madness. The Hong Kong Itinerary was solely created by him. And throughout the trip, u will only hear him shout to u, "Hey, quick quick! We need to follow the schedule! We are already late" And u find yourself brisk walking behind him and catching your breath. Lol. But thinking back, it is cool that we went to every place scheduled in the itinerary.



Day 4 will just be Chatuchak Weekend Market before we head for the airport. :D I told him that I remembered there wasn't much shopping that will interest us in Chatuchak. Jun Wen insisted on going. The reason was... If his friends find out that he had been to Bangkok without visiting Chatuchak, he will be really embarrassed. Lol.


Will blog again this Wed okie!

Happy Birthday to me!



I have finished 3 seasons of The Good Wife. Now I'm at Ugly Betty Season 2. :) Just love the feeling of coming back home after a day's work and watching something I like. That day at work, CS was telling me how lucky he has been since young. Something about how he said it moved me. It could be his tone, the genuine smile on his face, that sincere pair of eyes or all of these combined. He could be so appreciative about what he has achieved so far in his life. The things he has been grateful for he remembered so vividly, every accomplishment he has made he has cherished and every blessing granted to him he has counted one by one. And wow, it was truly heartwarming. He said he owed most of it through luck and believed that other than hard work, luck is a significant factor attributing to success. If you don't have luck, you probably won't succeed as things don't go you intend them to be. In my opinion, I like to think it this way: You have to work hard to be lucky. If you kept trying and trying, you will eventually become lucky. Just keep trying, don't get stagnant, move, travel, take a class, take a risk. Leave all the brokenness behind. Embrace today with all your bravery, your fortitude, your faith and intensity to keep travelling down the life path. You will get lucky. I promise. He made me begin to feel guilt. I felt responsible for not being appreciative of the things around me. Just recently a long-time friend told me that he felt that my life has been smooth all this while. My reaction to his comment was to smile and dismiss it. I did not feel exceptionally privileged or lucky. Now that I think about it, I thought maybe it's greed making me less satisfied and less thankful. :( Sometimes I'm too blind to see my life as a whole and appreciate it. I get affected by insignificant lousy events. I know I shan't feel this way but couldn't help it. I should learn to accept that I'm blessed all this while and not forget the things that I was appreciative for. :D I have worked to come this far and shouldn't always doubt myself. There is still so much that I can learn from others. :) Hi friends! It's April! Lol. I am going to annoy all of u with the word 'April' until my birthday is over!

My tutee's mum is kind of hinting me to teach a class of Korean pupils in her tuition center part time next year. I tried hard to ignore the hint. Lol. Omg, I find it so hard to reject someone, especially when she is so kind and nice. Sometimes, she bought me biscuits and chocolates. Other times, she treated me to dinner. And other other times, she just added more "commission". My tutee got accepted by a branded school and transferred to it just this Jan and her mum was really grateful for it. Omg. I just happen to have a bright tutee who scores more than 85 for every subject. Are all Koreans so generous? :D


Jun Wen just bought a new desktop. He is a very surprising person. He would think of random stuff and the next thing u know, he has done that random thing. Like the day before he bought PS3, he told me he was going to buy it and the next day I saw it sitting in his room. Lol. This time it was almost the same, except that he gave me a week's notice. I slowly dug out the reason that he needs the desktop for. He bought a computer game and needs a efficient desktop to suit its specifications. Lol right! People buy games to play on their desktops and he bought a desktop to play his game?


Every time any occasion is near the corner, Jun Wen will be very troubled about what present he can get for me. We have run out of things to buy actually. He asked me what I want as a gift. And of course, I would say anything. But this time he asked a few more times, like if I want Wii and I said "No no, I don't want Wii. Just miscellanous stuff". And he knew that whenever he buys miscellanous stuff, I would wear it for a day or two and he will never see it again. And the things I really really want is way too expensive to be mentioned. I would buy them myself one fine day.


Lol. So to make his life easier, we went shopping together! I choose all my gifts for a change.



1st misc stuff: a iPhone cover.





I only like covers with covers! Which means there should be a flap covering the front screen of the phone. I grow to be more and more protective of my phone. I dunno why. I used to say "Oh it's okie never mind" whenever I dropped my Nokia phones (They would exclaim loudly for me but didn't expect such a response from me).

My old one has spoilt after 5 months! I was swinging my phone right in the presence of my colleagues in order for them to notice that my cover was so wrecked. And they might just probably buy me a cover for my birthday. Instead, they didn't notice and when I had no other choice but to request this gift from them, they would pretend that they didn't hear it.

But Jun Wen has bought it. We went to the top level of Plaza Sing to get it. Love the patchwork design so much!



And whenever we went to Plaza Sing, I would stop by a shop that sells Sanrio stuff. And I saw this:



It was love at first sight. Cutest thing ever invented I think! I love the black bow
And that was gift #2.


Gift #3 is a skirt, which I somehow can't get a good picture of. I would show it to you some another day when i was wearing it out to the streets.



:D Nights dears!
