BKK~!

And yes, I am finally back from my 5D4N trip from Bangkok. It is definitely a tiring yet refreshing trip for because I got the chance to take a break from life in Singapore! But than again, come to think of it, I didn't really rest much because we had to do lots of shopping and travelling, not forgetting those late night chats we have in the hotel rooms- where got time to sleep? Anyways, I was really glad to have Ariel, Maryanne, Tracy, Kieran, CM and Terence to tag along- they definitely made this trip more meaningful in many ways.

On the day of flight, this Terence cannot sleep. And because of this, we cabbed to the airport the earliest compared to everyone. And it feels as though like I was leaving for good- left the house so early in the morning with luggage without telling anyone in the house. How do I put it, it just feels as though I am going to miss them all since I am not going to see them for 5 days. Anyways, everything was quite smooth- from checking-in to clearing the customs on both side. So I really thank God for everything!

CITIN PRATUNUM our hotel~! Thanks to Ariel, we managed to get connecting rooms! Their service is really not that bad, there are really lots of staffs that are willing to go all out for you. But the only thing that is bad would probably be the fact that this hotel is damn difficult to find at first. Other than that, thumb's up!

During the trip, we also went to the sauna. This is my virgin sauna man. I think it is not as cool as I thought it would be but nonetheless it is really hot inside. I don't say right? The boys stay inside for 20 minutes and we all perspired a lot indeed. Oh, I forget to mention that Maryanne made this funny comment in the sauna because she is wearing black long-sleeves. It went something like "Can you guys don't sit so close me, damn hot please.." We also tried the tu-tu there! I think its one of the most exciting rides I ever had. Because the tu-tu car isn't enclosed, hence we could feel the wind and everything while it moves. And the sensation is damn different when you sit in a car-ride. Its just thrilling and I would definitely tu-tu my way again next time.

Of course we did shop a lot and eat lots of their local delicacies. The only I remembered about shopping would probably just be the bargaining with the shop-owners. And most of the locals there are friendly man! And of course with Kieran with us, we managed to get lots of good deals and brought many clothes, shoes pants on discount! In terms of the food, I really loved the street-side food that would sold. I swear its definitely worth you eating and your money. The only thing I missed out was the bamboo-rice! Cannot believe I didn't eat that one- have been craving for it ever since I tried one last time.

During the last night, it was probably one of the most adventurous nights. We went to Baiyoke Sky Hotel to have a international buffet at the 81 levels high!! Something different from Singapore's "custom" was that they had people to entertain us while we are dining- clowns, guitarist and even magicians. CM was shocked that he even dropped his utensils while the clowns performed some magic. Damn funny. The night was made prefect when we realized the rain flooded most of the route to our hotel. And guessed what we did? We braved the flood! Maryanne was the bravest girl- first one to enter the water. The funniest part was when the locals make the girls believe that there is something in the water and we all screamed and shouted. Anyways, we walked the flood for like 3 times!!

And yes, time passes really fast when we are having fun. I really enjoyed their company. through this 5D4N. Felt as though they were my family, taking care on one another. Especially the night when I was sick, this Terence quite sweet, keep asking me if I okay or not. Tracy, Ariel and CM also offered me medication. Kieran also were really good at memorizing and familiarizing the place. And Maryanne definitely went the extra mile to try and bond with us through the heart to heart talk, some ghost stories to even sharing one same blanket. Also those moments when we try our best to win the monopoly deals.

There is a lot of things which cannot be expressed through words, its only to be felt.

If this feeling is strong enough, one would probably not want it to come to an end.

And I came to this conclusion that I don't this friendship to end.

I am willing to give it a go again and hold this feeling close to my heart.

I think they feel the same too, no?

Even if we happened to be replaced by something else next time..

the memories we shared cannot be replaced.

As I always believed, its the people's effort and desire that makes things happen- not mere words.

So let's do this again someday next time and meet up!! :)

And so, its just 2 more week or so before my school reopens.

Shall continue to enjoy it while it last.

I am also kind of anticipating my results for this semester.

Well, TILL THEN~

Something which I decided to drop out was to visit my Mum when I was in Thailand because I couldn't contact her in Thailand for some stupid reasons. Before this trip, I was really looking forward to see her and even called her to tell her that I am going to Bangkok- even my Dad encouraged me to do so. But after thinking, I thought it would probably be best if it remains as it is since it has been like that for the past few years. Besides, my objective is not to visit her. I did struggle over this decision in the bathroom over the period of stay, I was scare that I might regret...Probably I knew I am not mentally prepare to do so? Whatever it was, hope she is not affected by the flood.

Praying for her safe-keeping as always.
