=)

been back from bkk trip. it was fruitful, it was enriching, it was fun, it was enjoyable and i loved every moment i spent in that city. i greedily took in the sights of the city and i enjoyed the simple and slow pace of life the country offered. i just couldn't sleep whenever i was on the coach. all i did was to stare out of the window and take in whatever meets my eye.

i like how warm and friendly the people are. i like the night markets that we visited during our trip there, of cuz being able to bargain makes our purchases even sweeter. thailand really whet my appetite and im glad i've regained my hearty appetite which i've lost over the past few months. i made a silent pact with myself that while i was in thailand, i'd eat what they eat.. be adventurous, try something that wasn't available in singapore. i loved eating at their roadside stalls, drinking their milk tea [really my cup of tea], sprinkling generous amounts of chilli flakes and drizzling fish sauce on the fishball noodles and eating prata drizzled with sweetened condensed milk on it.i'll always remember the distinct smell of the old school skincare product hazeline [which our parents and grandparents prolly use to keep their skin smooth, fair and supple] which greeted us when we first boarded the coach in thailand.

i've picked up some thai [hahaha!! now i can scold people in a nice way and they wouldn't even know im scolding them MUAHAHAHA] after my 6 days with the Bangkok University cheerleaders, and I'm really glad i got to know them better this year and i really look forward to seeing them in singapore. i would gladly invite them over to home-stay at my house and take them around singapore... :) and i really see their enthusiasm and i really enjoyed watching them enjoy themselves at the dinner. :) they were singing, dancing, and just having oodles of fun! :) they are just so... friendly.. open... carefree... all that i'm really not.i missed them, really and i wish i could turn back time and stay there for a longer period of time.. because coming back to singapore is significant for me; it simply means "welcome back to reality" for me.
