you just know its a bad day when:

-you have a giant sized ulcer thats in the worstest worst position. somewhere behind right smack in between my upper and lower molars. tsk. so whenever i chew, talk, laugh, smile or just basically move my mouth it hurts. ok let me correct that. it FRIGGIN HURTS LIKE.... yeah. thats how bad it is. i decided to do the unthinkable and put salt on it because i promised to do smthg about the nagging (nagging? just merely nagging? Excruciating is a much more accurate word) pain. BUT lo and behold. i have an energizer ulcer. NEVER SAY DIE.

-you accidentally scratch this already awful disgusting revolting UGLY pimple thats already sticking out like a sore thumb. ok make that a sore bulging poisonous mushroom. well at least the mushroom looks faintly cute. this is just plain gross. ok again i shall practice some accuracy control here. it isnt simply gross. its Repulsive. and i havent even begun to describe the others.maybe i should go to the aiport in a paper bag tmr.tsk.

-you by some really really freak chance cut yourself with a scissors. and its just a tiny little puny cut. but hell does it hurt. and its not even a cut cut. its like. a blood clot. weird. im beginning to think im very weird. tsk.

ok.now that ive had my fair share of indulging in unnecessary self-pity, let me talk about my recent bangkok trip.which sad to say, isnt all too exciting to talk about either.hur hur.

first and foremost, i didnt buy a lot. seriously. for those who know me, they know im one pretty big shopper. and i came back with so little stuff i was amazed. but ok it wasnt my fault. its not that i didnt have the money but rather its a little hard to really spend with my parents around. which interestingly is super ironic because they gave me quite a bit to spend. haha. so yes, i vow to go back in december. i dont care. even if i have to go alone (which no one would let me so im pretty sure id find someone to go with me. *grin) to get all the things that should be in my possession now. but for the record, here's what i got:

from the roadside perpectual pasar malam near my hotel:
4 pairs of earrings

from the famous chatuchak weekend market:
8 pairs of earrings
5 necklaces
2 belts
3 clips
2 pencil cases
3 tops
1 pair of shorts
4 tshirts
1 polo shirt
i pair of sandals

from the Suan Lam weekend night market:
just ONE dress

from the pratunam shopping area:
2 bags
1 tshirt

from MBK:
3 tshirts

from siam square:
15 magnets

how LITTLE is that. and half of it i bought to give away. hur hur.
oh well. december. bangkok watch out. pathumwan princess here i come. haha.

besides the incredible shopping, the food rawks just as much.
CHEAP CHEAP CHEAP. haha. singaporeans are really like little birdies huh.
i had sushi tei, something i wouldnt normally have in singapore not just because of the price but the service here sucks and the food is just as bad as the attitude of the waitresses.
in fact i had japanese food twice. haha. had a sashimi salad for like a mere 200baht which is like 8bucks? and it was really good stuff. very fresh. yummilicious. im a sashimi-addict. i had sashimi at sushi tei too. hahahaha. maybe its cause im a kat..gettid? cat? fish? ok bad joke. moving on...

had a seafood dinner too..you cannot (i repeat CANNOT) go to bangkok and not have their seafood..
not only is it delicious but its CHEAP (i hear the birds singing again).
10 people.10 huge prawns.2 sea bass.pineapple rice.green curry.soft shell crabs.prawn cakes.omelette.
all for only 2000baht.which is EIGHTY sing dollars. i kid you not.


and to top it all off the place was beautiful. alfresco dining with a gorgeous view of the King Rama bridge.

ok since we're on the topic of food. to my dismay, we had shark's fin. i dont eat shark's fin or birds nest as far as i can help it. i only had the broth which was no doubt delicious. and ok. cheap lah. haha. so much food at such little cost.

the supermarket was even worst. i think i almost fainted.
the normal price for a 1.5l bottle of coke is 20baht. which is about 80cents sing. to make matters worst it was on sale. for a mere 16 baht. go work out for yourself how much that is.
and and and. i became a mentos addict while i was there. 3 tubes for 21baht. hahahahahaha. i should have bought a crate back to last me for the next semester. hur hur.

ok.with all that said and done.im off to eat my chocolate cake.yeap.despite the nagging ulcer i cannot resist sweeeeeeeeeeeet stuff. ohhhhhhhh. which reminds me. during the four days i had the buffet breakfast at the hotel i barely even bothered to survey the food. i just had the sweet pastries and jams (which i had to eat bread in order to eat the jam......). hahaha. for FOUR days in a row. i think i must be mad. sweettoothinoverdrive. if theres one disease i'll get its diabetes (CHOY).

ok.off i go.*poof.

p/s: photos are up! oh. and tell me who do i look more like. my mum or dad. haha. (:
