My Bangkok Trip 2006 - Last Chapter

Well, It has been quite some time since i last blogged. Been really busy at work! I've became such a workaholic, working late almost every day or once every 2 -3 days. The latest I have stayed at work is till abt 10.30pm! N yeah, I was the last to leave the whole bloody big office. Today i worked till 8.30pm. Boo.

Anyway, since it has been almost 2 months since i last went to Bangkok....Kinda sian to blog about it alry. Haha. So here's a summary with some pictures!

Siam Paragon! It is tauted as "The Pride of Bangkok". It is like a mega version of Singapore's Paragon and a bit of Vivocity. Well, letz just say that most of whatever they've got at Siam Paragon, Singapore has them too. So I dunno what is so prideful about it. But i must say i do love their flagship departmental store, also called Siam Paragon. It has everything under one roof and looks more stylish, well-decorated with roomy fitting rooms and aisles! Also their basement is like a food galore! Something like Taka's basement but with more neat rows of stalls/counters selling really yummy food ranging from takopachi to assorted waffles & pancakes to noodles to thai and international cuisine. Yum!


On one of the nights, we went on board Chao Phraya Princess for a dinner cruise along Chao Phraya river! So romantic! Unfortunately it rained shortly after we went onboard the boat. So we had to move downstairs to the bottom deck that is air-conditioned. In an enclosed boat...i felt kinda sick and felt like puking. Cudnt eat much in the end so wasted $$. =( If it din rain, we wud have sat on the top open-air deck and i wudnt have felt seasick. (we've got really good seats, all thanks to Baby's connections!) Nevertheless, it was still fun and romantic! Ambience was good with candlelights and live singers. They had fireworks too!

As our hotel is conveniently located and is very near a lot of shopping centres, we tend to take one short 5 to 10 mins break in the middle of the day by gg back to our hotel to wash up and put our shopping bags down...for more shopping afterwards. Here's a pic of us horsing around and playing in our hotel room at Pathumwan Princess. Got this umbrella-twisted balloon from this cute mascot at the hotel lobby! Anyway the point is, I love being with Baby. Even during our short break from shopping, we can have so much fun together.


We went clubbing at CM2! It is located at Novetel Siam Square hotel. The club is a hit with many tourists esp ang mohs. Quite a bit of Thai girls there to ...specially to pick up ang mohs! These thai girls are young adults betw 20-30 yrs old. Some look like students! They must have saved quite a bit coz the cover charge is not that cheap as compared to other clubs. Guess they are there to have one-night stands or to hook up a rich ang moh bf? Anyway, it is definitely not a sleazy club. It is something like Thumper, but it is super big! With a main arena, a R&B room, wine corner, a stage and quite a few pool tables. There is a ang moh live band playing too and they are realli good! Way better than those in S'pore. They do not only sing...they dance too! It is like watching some black eyed peas concert...very entertaining. Clubbing there is realli fun fun fun! After clubbing there, i dun think clubbing in S'pore is that fun anymore.

The before and after pic of our couch at the end of our 2nd last day in Bangkok, where we dump all our shopping bags. Actually..there are more on the table. But i dun wanna look too kua zhang. Haha!

Having breakfast at the hotel on the last day. I felt super sian that we have to go back to S'pore alry. *bleugh* 6 days just flew by so quickly.

One thing we did not have the chance to do at Bkk...MASSAGE! Shucks! No time at all. All day..all we do is shop and shop, and eat and club. Haha. But guess what we found when we arrived at Changi airport?? Yep! OTO foot massage machines! Wah! Heavenly! My super tired and sore feet realli felt GOOOOD! A 5 mins massage on that machine realli did wonders!


End of story! All in all, a super fun trip with Baby! Yay! Where shall we go next year? Hehehe..must start saving!
