Physically back from thai but not mentally.
Monday. 2.16.09 11:10 am
I never had enough of thai and i guess i never will.
The feeling of returning back was dreadful, i was never a happy
person since returning. Im emotionally attached to the people there
and the country itself. I witness how people look and yearn for every
single working opportunity to survive in the chaotic city but nevertheless
i felt a great warmth around the people's lively spirit and attitude.

I didn't just had fun in my trip, but i learnt as well.
The times i had spent with my friends and sisters will remain
as photographic memories in my mind. especially! the moment
when we squeezes 7 big asses into the taxi, and sharing the front single
sit with sam which is a mission impossible but we strive though the 15mins ride
purely classic, dopest experience throughout the trip and my entire life.


I'm so missing thailand.

I need to be mentally back to reality tomorrow and get my ass off
to work and plan for the next thai trip, i will be back to where im belong. lol
Big thanks to sam, dewei, weiling and sisters for looking out for me

Wat Po::Wat Bowonniwetwihan::Wat Benchamabophit::Grand Palace::

Buddha, my fav temple so far.

Wat Bowonniwetwihan
another breath-taking temple. btw we got a really good-natured guide who gives
off this peaceful aura, its only later that we learnt he was a monk for 16 years.
During the tour he tried his best explaining the history of the temples through his
thick accent, though i couldnt understand some of it but continue to give him my
full attention for the effort made.

explained by our guide, its actually rude to sit with your feet facing the Buddha,
the correct way is to either kneel or sit cross leg.
Photobucket

Thinking that we are able to ride down the river to our next destination, the
marble temple, we hop on to the long-tail boat (hang yao) and tour the west
banks of the Chao Phraya River only to be return back to the same pier where we
board. Typical language miscomm in foreign country but we did enjoy the tranquil
boat ride to the old river town.

you really have a heart of stone is you don't buy from them. paddling under the
blaring sun and having to keep up with you boat while selling fans, hats, cold
drinks and souvenirs, a tad expensive but they totally deserve it.

End of the day trip, was back to the hotel to freshen up then head to red light
district for live thai girl show and pingpongs (what a extreme change)

Went to Siam Square to meet up Yut and some shopping. A popular hang out place
among the young thais, reminds me of Taipei Ximenting, movie Love of Siam was
shoot there. its more hip and has alot of designer boutiques, of course much
much more pricey.

we didnt really go for thai girl show or explore the red light district. only sam went
with a relactant yut. the others end up having deserts and drinks in a decent cafe
at patong.

Day 3 Chatukchat and Khao San

nothing much to say. its all about shopping there. however one interesting fact.
the wong sisters consumed the following during the 4 hours there:
thai ice milk tea x 1
thai orange juice x 1
water melon juice x 1
ice mineral water x 2
yakult x 1
Chrysanthemum tea x 2
fresh coconut x 2
sugarcane juice x 1
total : 11

and no toilet visit cuz we prolly sweat all the liquid out.

ying discovered this man by the streets selling handmade keychains and
bookmarks. you prolly find him just another street vendor, but on closer look the
stuffs he did was really amazing. just with a color plastic tube and a long wire he
worked his way to turn them into a complicated bicycle and hes selling it like
10baht! i only regret it not buying more from him. the dirty worn out hands left
the deepest impression on me.

anyone whose going bkk, if u manage to see him pls pls pls get something from
him.

After Dinner we went over to Central World to meet up with Sam and Yut and
visited the two famous shrines outside, Trimurti Shrine and Ganesha Shrine. Its
was valentine's day and Trimurti Shrine, known as the god of love was filled with
people with offering of red roses. Unknown to us until Yut explained to us, we
went to offer offerings at Ganesha Shrine known as the god of good fortune and
success...oh well...its money over love for us. lol.

the infamous cab ride to Khao San, packing 7 adults excluding the taxi driver. Two
heavy weight in front : ying and sam, me shan dw weiling and yut at the back.
Photobucket

my fav part of the trip. Night life at Khao San.
known as the backpackers ghetto, its not so touristy as patong, very hippie and
laid back. live nirvana music blasting at some of the pubs, locals and non-locals laid
their mats on the floor selling handmade stuffs leather wallets to fake ids, strings
of phat thai hawkers selling the famous fried noodles along the road. the place is
so just so alive.

Photobucket

Photobucket

Photobucket

u just need a mini bar to run a business there
Photobucket

we settled at little cosy place call Hippie De Bar behind the back alley and start
making ourselves high with malibu and kamikaze shots

and lastly the trip wouldnt be this fun without you guys. i love dw and sam! and
yes wat the fuck! *big big hugs*
