I AM BACK.
with a new hairdo! okays fine so the haircut was done in spore, just today, and now that i've washed my hair the top looks suspiciously like a.... bird's nest (not the bottled kind) its rather funky i guess, but peiqin's one even better. check it out soon guys, at the class gathering maybe. haha.
py: hey sorry i didnt turn up at the bbq though i said i would! cos went for some job interview thing then in the end went to cut hair. hope to meet up with you sue n vann soon though (:
thailand was fine. i wonder why after all the shopping till dropping, playing till (shit what rhymes), im still so FAT. actually i know why. IT MUST BE TOM YAM. yeah.
mar: sorry i couldnt get your dress! there were alot of such cultural wraparounds etc etc, but none was really nice enough. until i saw this really nice set top n bottom, with exquisite embroidery, BUT it was abt 150bucks. not expensive actually for the nice workmanship, but it was too ex for me to decide for you. think its for formal occasions anyways. it looked abit.. weddingish. haha. sorry dear!
joel: sorry no von dutch paris hilton lookalike cap! cos i didnt go to that siam square. couldnt extend my stay there cos no seats on the flight back! but actually i think it was really near to my hotel. but as u know, by the time i got back to my hotel evryday, the shops are closed.
pattaya was... thought provoking. every caucasian man i saw there was with some thai woman (not pretty ones). well, no wonder that industry flourishes. it didnt really hit me till i saw this very grandfatherly-like caucasian man (the kind looking type) with this thai woman. was at this night market place with shops n stores. so the souveneir shop i was at was beside this lingerie shop. and there were cheap lace-y transparent red thongs being sold. and to my utmost disgust, the old grandfather man pointed (they obviously cant communicate due to language barriers) to them, indicating that the thai woman wear them. then the thai woman looked at them with an expression which i couldnt read into, and walked away. and the old grandfather man was like subtlely pestering her to go back n buy them. damn i'll nv look at old kind grandfatherly men the same way again.
coral island was alright. the usual water activities. and they had this walking underwater thing to feel n see the corals. and the glass boat to view the corals too. dreamworld was fun. going on the rides repeatedly without having to pay felt good. haha. shopping was mainly done in bangkok. pattaya was... yeah u know. and oh, the tiffany's show. apparently the most prestigious n famous transvestite caberet show in thailand. they were like freaking well endowed n pretty. most of them at least. and while some lusty men were clamouring to take photos with them afterwards, some china tourists basically stripped the man/woman to his/her boobs and "squeezed" them for the photo. yeah i saw his/her boobs. hrm looks rather real. haha. they dance damn well though. i should be a guy.
me n my sis shared a room. and basically we're clean freak nut cases. we placed a towel that we brought from home on the pillows cos we couldnt slp at ease on the pillows. haha but actually the hotels were pretty clean n nice. we're just... mad.
wanted to extend our stay. but no seats available on the flight the next day. probably cos evryone wants to get back by monday for work. actually its a blessing in disguise. THE EARTHQUAKE. okays fine phuket was most affected. but bangkok was too right. and on the morning of the earthquake (back in spore already) i woke up with a dizzy spell, couldnt even stand to wash up n eat lunch. wanted to puke n couldnt see clearly. might be jet lag huh. but who on earth gets a jet lag in their own country n lets face it, thailand time is only one hour different. SO my mom came up with her most important discovery of her life - that her beloved daughter, is, PSYCHIC. tada!! i knew it. okays kidding aside. actually this earthquake is really a calamity, the number of deaths is rather phenomenal compared to the other recent earthquakes. and its so near us. better be grateful that we were only affected by minor tremors.
hrm. was sick of blogging. but ended up with quite a long entry afterall. oh wells, meanwhile i have to worry about how the heck im gonna deal with my new hair tmr. to all my beloved dears, i missed you guys too! and by the way, pq thanks for your bean king n cookies! LOVE THEM (:
