Life of a Tai Tai @ Bkk

#Throwback... #Bkk 

Life in BKK- everything seems to be really cheap as compared with Singapore. A dress that only cost $4-$5 SGD?! A thick jacket that only cost $8SGD? I simply love BKK. Then... this qn came to my mind. "Will you want to stay in Bkk forever?" The answer in my mind was a definite NO. It's place where tourist will like if it's for shopping. But if come to living there, i guess it wont be some place that people would like to stay for long. Healthcare? Transportation? Education? You know. I know.

I used to bargain a lot when buying things in BKK. But recently, i don't do it anymore if prices are reasonable enough. Having a discount of 10 - 20 bahts is like not even a dollar SGD, whereas it's a big money to them. I go for clothes which only cost less than 200 baht. Anything more than that, i'll give it a miss, unless i like it very much. 

Sometime, what i don't like about BKK, they tend to charge tourist more than locals on the clothes. For example, i went to a shop, seeing the prices stated there 3 for 90 baht each. However, was told by the seller is 3 for 100baht each. SEE! Well... that's life. 

Half of my loots are here! Very satisfied with my loots! =DD Avg 150baht each! <3 

Ohya! I read a news recently. Thailand is going to charge tourist 500baht for the entry fees with effect starting on Jan 2014! =((

Thai massage @ bkk!

This is my very first time trying out full body massage despite multiple trips to bkk. 

My friend and I decided to go for massage at the shop nearby our hotel. That was the worst decision that we had made for this trip. Hahaha!

Three massage shops was just next to each other. We step into one of the shop as the masseur and masseuse are giving us eye contacts when we walked pass.

Upon stepping in, the lady boss ( I suppose?) made us paid first before we get their service 😪. 

Then the boss instructed my friend to go to the upper lvl and leaving me alone downstair w those masseur and masseuse. Feeling very awkward but I guess smiling to everyone is the best solution to relieve the tension. BUT I WAS WRONG! I believed that the boss actually saw me smiling to one of the masseur so I supposed she got a wrong signal and therefore she got him to massage me! WTS! But I was kind of stupid for not voicing up. So the whole one hr massage was not even relaxing for me. 😪😪 My ass was being massage too! 😂

As for my friend, she had a very bad experience too. She was wearing a dress and her masseuse did not even offer a towel or pants for her, and she was just  lying beside me w my masseur who is able to get a perfect view of what's underneath the dress. She was very much exposed. Srsly! 😪😪

That was the most terrible Thai massage that we had paid for. And the next day, we went to Khao San, massage there was awesome!

Date with lovers

It's been really long since we last meet up. Way before my birthday i guess? LOL! My colleagues recommended a place at Busoorah St, telling me that food and cafe over there was pretty awesome. So three of us decided to give there a visit. Never did i know that Busoorah St is somewhere at Haji Lane and also kampong glam!

Wanted to give this cafe named "I AM" a try, but the cafe was little bit too small and was very packed. Googled a little and wanted to go to another cafe named "Eat.Play.love". We managed to find our way there and =.=" The cafe was closed for private event. FML.

Back to Busoorah St and walking pass this Swedish cafe named "Fika". So we decided to have dinner there. The whole bill came up to $100+! OMG! LOLOL! Food presentation and the taste wise was okay. Quite nice actually.

Foods!! =DD

Nice environment right?!? =DD 

Not forgetting this grilled pork from Bugis Junction which cost me $3.50 for 3 sticks! Although it's fattening but is freaking nice! OMGGGG! I bought it at the food street from the korean stall. IT'S WOW!!
