BANGKOK BANGERS

Our BKK adventure in a sentence was all about gorging ourselves with the local food, partyin/ chillin at khao san and RCA, wholesale shoppin at pratunam and of course the unmissable chatuchak weekend mkt. But the finer details include deliberating abt tattoo ideas non stop, shavin scabs off and slamming fingers in windows, getting quoted SGD$60 for a laser that we were all awestruck with, getting conned by tuk tuk drivers thus we h8 tuktuks, phailing terribly at bargaining (we suck), lousy late night movies on tv, taking forever to choose friendship band colourways, making friends with thais @ chatuchak, only realizing our diner was cockroach infested upon paying the bill, getting a massage that proved to further exacerbate the aches in our necks and legs, thais mistaking nadia for a thai, massive aaawing at chatuchak's puppy section, awkward partying at route 66 (no dancefloor ftw)... bangkok was a BLAST, I luv


Where to next, my fellow globetrotting musketeers? China, perhaps? But first. It's about time I started job hunting. Sigh sigh. Can't blv it's time i filed for graduation. My age is catching up with me.

u should have gone to "siam square", there's lots of very stylish shops such as COCUE and SUPERMARKET. also, "siam center". lots of good thai brands like SODA, MATHEMATICS etc. and route 66 is a twat. 808 and club culture are much better. moreover, u shouldnt have missed RACHADA NIGHT MARKET. loads of cheap vintage clothes like SGD $8 per a dress. u would find tons of cheap 2nd hand stuffs there. oh and CHINA TOWN has the best cheap food. i know its too late but if u have a chance to go back to bkk, dont miss those!

@anon1: woah thnx so much for all the good suggestions!! we did go to siam centre and sq actually.. but didnt buy anything cos it was relatively pricey... will definitely visit rachada next time!!@!@@# we went to suan lom (or smthg) but it was a tourist trap... and zomg yes route 66 = twat. we were supposed to go back to RCA the next night to try the other clubs but we were too lazy. haha next time next time. and THX agn for e suggestions! ♥
