bangkok post in its finality finally

did he believe us?

so after declaring loudly that one of us was going to be staying at a friends place, he began to get busy with the paperwork and click clicking on the computer.

so we waited. and waited. and waited.

and then he declares

"i have upgraded your rooms to a suite"

O___O

"but if i catch three of you in the room, i will charge you double"

+___+

"have a pleasant stay *flashes smile wtf*

***

when we got into the room, we were like 'WHOAAA'

we had a living and dining room. with a walk in wardrobe the size of a public toilet cubicle and a huge ass bathroom. basically, we had a BIG room for 3 girls.

damn good deal.

rights. i'm getting lazy to type so i'll let the photos do the talking.


view from our room

the uncle who sold us skewered chicken&pork. he's holding an egg which will make us strong. he kept showing us his muscle while holding the chicken. but anyways, he damn layan. posed whenever the camera was directed at him. must be thinking we damn jakun, never see hawker food seller before wtf. and he was damn nice. buy 10 free 1 and he added in 3 of the eggs that will make us strong!


Platinum Fashion Mall is every female's dream destination in Bangkok. must visit ok! i rate this 11 stars wtf. your money will surely be well spent here.

satisfied after shopping!

then we headed to the shopping centers! this is us in front of Central World. it's just like your regular shopping mall. most of the brands here can be found back home. anyways, when going to Bangkok, you dont buy stuff you can get back home. you buy cheap stuff!


then we headed to Paragon, where we had Tony Roma's Pork Ribs *yumyum* faster guess how much? it was less than 250 baht. TONY ROMA'S PORK RIBS you cannot get at that price! there was a promotion going on i think, hence the very affordable pricing. the beef ribs back here is already like rm50++ so imagine our joy when we saw the price for pork ribs. i think the fact that it was pork ribs was enough to tempt us to eat it anyways. if it wasn't pork ribs it would have been mcdonald's pork burger. see the pattern? we were in a pork indulgence.

after dinner, waiting for a taxi!

then at night this is what we came home to.

ok fine, not exactly. we had to buy this before 12am because in Thailand, they dont sell alcohol after 12am.

drink we did.

and again, drink we did. shots!

then, partied we did.

the next day it was off to chatuchak, the biggest weekend market! must come here at least once when in bangkok. the enormity of the market amazes me. can get lost i'm not kidding. and the rule is to buy what you see. dont even think of thinking about it and then going back to the shop to get it. cause, that's not gonna be possible.

believe me when i say we hunted high and low for them coconuts! unfortunately they weren't chilled cold. room temperature pfft. the weather was damn hot! but nevermind, got to satisfy my coconut craving. going to Thailand, one cannot miss out on their coconuts and orange tangerine whatever you want to call it. those 2 drinks MUST drink when in Thailand especially in hot weather like Thailand.

after chatuchak, we headed to Emporium. i think we spent about an hour in the shoe department i kid you not. we took forever in deciding if we wanted to buy the shoes or not. the salesperson must have wanted to strangle us +__+ but alas, we all bought the shoe! no need to strangle after all since got business albeit it took forever to come to that decision wtf. then after getting our shoes, we went to get ourselves a massage! when in Thailand, the massage cannot miss! be it a foot massage or full body massage. very worth it especially after a long day of shopping =D the photo shows them preparing for our massage


at night, we headed off to suan lum night market. another great place to visit. you can find all kinds of kitschy stuff here. there was this shop that had one of a kind shoes, but unfortunately, they're made to order so we couldn't buy 'em. after suan lum, we planned to head back to the hotel but halfway, we decided to go visit patpong, another night market but not just any night market. this night market offers you the chance of watching a 'ping-pong show'. and boy are the pimps aggressive. they practically stalk you. we were curious as to what it was about so we asked one of them pimps and the next thing we know when we walked away, she (yes, a she pimp wtf) stalked us. we got damn scared and quickly hopped into the above pictured tuk-tuk.

we went back into the comforts of our hotel room. but of course, not before stopping by 7eleven. seriously, there were 3 7elevens right in front of our hotel! as you can see from the photo above, there are 2 cans of heineken, 2 bottles of smirnoff red, 3 cocktails, 1 lychee something *i forgot the name* and a bottle of black smirnoff. OMG ALL THAT FOR 3 GIRLS!!!
at the end of the day, we downed a can of heineken and one of them alcopops. we alternated between the 2 and omg the combination will leave you high. guaranteed wtf.

so there you go.

that concludes my bangkok post.

i had tonnes of fun in bangkok with the 2 monkeys. the long nights of chit-chat, bonding over shopping and drinks, and the very carerful language we used makes for one heck of a memory!

we had so much fun, we're thinking of making this an annual trip!

ps: you know what my theory is regarding our hotel room? i think he knew we were lying and that was why he upgraded us. or maybe it's because it was 3 of us girls. smitten with us wtf. whatever the reason, bless his soul. he made our stay in bangkok all the more memorable! superior suite for 3 girls. i feel like i was in an episode of sex and the city wtf. the shoes, the shopping, the drinking, the city of Bangkok, the chitchats minus the sex. or not. HA HA *wiggles eyebrow*
