4inl0ve: Bangkok Trip Day 2

Day 2 – Monday 10Jan11

We had our 1st BKK breakfast at 930am at the ground level of our Hotel. I always look forward to having breakfast during overseas trip, especially when Breakfast is provided by the Hotel as I believe that a good breakfast is going to make your day :)

The guys hoped on to a van (from the tailor) and headed to custom-make their suits. As for we girls, went to Platinum Mall and Platunam Market for SHOPPING! Yes! Can’t exactly tell you how excited we were. If it’s your first time to visit the mall, you ought to get lost. Ha! There were countless shops with a total of 6 – 7 levels, with each level selling a certain category of stuffs.

WHOLESALE is the key word at Platinum and WE LOVE IT! We split into different teams, according to different shopping speed. Ym by herself; Weili and Me a team; and Fang sisters a team. But ym joined our team not long after as wholesale is cheaper. All of us had gone crazy over there. I bought quite some dresses at 160 – 200 Baht each (approx $7 - $8+). Fang’s the biggest winner as she bought a Betty Boop luggage at a very cheap price (as compare to S’pore). Can you believe how cheap it is?

The only disadvantage is that the shops are simply too much or should I use countless. Weili and I started from the top level and when we walked till the 4th level, we were aching and dying of tiredness but could only push ourselves to carry on with our determination. SHOP TILL YOU DROP DEAD! LOL!

At evening time, we headed back to the Hotel and prepare and dressed ourselves up for the Calypso Cabaret Show at Asia Hotel. It’s a musical performance put up by the trans and males. But before that, we had dinner at the Hotel and had a mini “speed dating” session again. Ha! Ym with Rong Po; Weili with Kevin; Fang with Horsey; me with ch; and FangQi with Henry. Anybody wants any SALMON? That’s the classic tease of the trip. Kevin ordered Salmon for someone and anyone else who really likes to eat salmon. Aww~ So sweet!

Calypso Cabaret Show was great except for some disturbing scenes (high pitch tone singing and extreme performance). But overall, they still earned themselves a round of applause for their hard work and effort.

After the show, we proceed to the Sirocco Sky Bar for a chill-out cum drinking session before we head back to the Hotel. Although Day 2 was a super tiring day but it’s all worthwhile.
