And i'm back from Bangkok. Let's begin with some fun thaifacts.
(1)The Thais are extremely remarkably loyal to their king. They wear yellow to show their support to the king. But accurately, (most)Thais wear:
Yellow on Monday
Pink on Tuesday
Green on Wednesday
Orange on Thursday
Blue on Friday
Purple on Saturday
Red on Sunday
The rest are just colours of the rainbow but they kind of denote the Royalty by some means. idk.
(2) Thais are humble people. they pray ALOT.
(3) The taxis come in colours of the royal family too.
(4) Clothes sell as low as $1 in Bangkok. delightful~
( $1 sing- 22.6 baht)
Day 2
(sis wasn't with us on day 1-phone with her-no phone no camera-no photos)
This is after my busty sister arrived at bkk. afternoon.
So we're at the Baiyok Sky lobby level 18.
And here's where i caught my mother and sister warping the Lobby social design.
uglehh.
View from within halfway up-- . Endless sea of buildings.
After settling for a change in rooms, we cabbed off to Jatuchak.
This is the cab driver....... :)
What got me wasn't his good looks but the steering wheel. Its so small!
See!
Arrival.
..Jatuchak Plaza. where your money comes out like reflex
refreshingly sweet and exceptionally cheap. 15 Baht's like less than 1 dollar sing.
I apologize for having this picture here for view at your ... . discretion.
Sss... ew.

"HOOO MYEE GAAWWD, 199 199 BIG small SAME SAME 199 199!!"

Yeap, as i was waiting for my mother & sister outside this crazy sale shop. A whole series of that wan-nai-nai thing was on repeat mode.
"Whooopiee..! wan-nai-nai iz da bezz` "
Shrimp banana. (:
Sometimes, you'll be surprised to find goodness in something of modest proportion.
The night ended after good steamboat and a cheap tuktuk ride at a nearby arcade.
Day 3
mini plasticky, peculiar, plants sighted.
well, more of veggies. (wanted to have 3 Ps)
they're actually a kind of fun-food. jelly on the outside and tau-sah on the inside.
Proceeded to shopping (as there is nothing much you can do bt shop at bkk)
Here's a shop specializing retail on pants. grip-end 3 quarts
Thursday-Saturday cab
it took me awhile bt i realised (soon enough) there were no pics of shrines/temples in my handy dandy nokia.
so there~
A 20- year- old. how very attractive.
Our attention, intrigued by this bizarrely-bored-looking figure
From top left-right: Cinderella, -- , Pokahontas(?), Jasmine, Snow White, Ariel, --, --, --
Bottom left- right: Snow White, --, Ariel, Cinderella.
Ah, for an instant regenerating boost of fire!
20 baht juice drink (less than a dollar)
Undernourished and unstable local.
Heart-breaking
MBK-
the allegedly well-known shopping mall.
which was in fact not all that verifiable, as we soon discovered.
everything was too expensive
Hence we settled down for a quick
manicure session
TA-DAH
Dinner was terminated with Everybody's Favourite
AW, HOW CUTE! This PaPong kitty(or should i say, pussy) welcomed us with sure composure
as in sharp contrast with her little hometown.
Get a tattoo at Papong!Pa Pong- i hope i got the name spelt right.
Didn't had much pictures taken since i was feeling rather bothered by the chummy, good-natured Papongers.
"Sex Show! Sex Show! Ping Pong! you want see?"
"Sexy Gay, Sexy Girls for you "
not meaning to discriminate, just not comfortable in such unrestricted exposure.
you see, i'm 18 and i'm from Singapore.
Hence, sorry ! no sexy gays, no sexy girls and no ping pong pictures!
Papong CD sale ! Poor Tunstall was sold at 100 baht
(less than $5)
Moving on,--
Chinatown. Where cheap Sharkfin soups and Birdnests are found :)
100 -500 baht.
Quality unassured!
Supper! 25 Baht(>=$1) fresh "ping kang" fish.
with savory chilli to go with.
Hip thai vehicle = the Tuktuk.
Was not able to get on it tho.
