JC1 Leadership/Outdoor Camp 2006

camp @jalan bahtera was fun.80% fun. it wud have been 99% fun if not for the first night.grrr.damn pissed lor.
in brief somebody did a bad baD bAD BAD thing.n i mean bad. mr lee wung yew caught the evidence n the whole pe department activated a bag check on the guys.wif the help of the odac leaders too.we had to run to our dorms, packed our stuff, run back to the hall, unpacked while going to the push up position at times, run to the parade grounds, stand in three rows and in sediya position, stand, stand n stand, take off shoes, stand, stand n stand.then after everything is done, we packed back our bags n went back to our dorms.

edeleine:jaz u alrite?u look pissed...

well obviously im pissed.damn that guy.my mood for the whole day was spoilt.seriously i was very motivated after watching the video on shackleton,t he adventurer.after that, it all went to a negative value.

oh canoeing was soso.its not even a canoe lor!its a sit-on-top.aquila lost to sagi for rafting but luckily it wasnt included in points calculation.-phew-we had to quickly change n set off for friday prayers at the pusara aman mosque.however we missed the bus.haha.panic a while.then i asked mr lee whether the bus had left.indeed true.thank god mdm zalinah drove us to the mosque.he car was nice.thnx cher anywae!


day2
2dae was the best day ever.for the camp dat is.we had games all the wae.high elements, low elements n stuff.for the challenge pole i caught the bar hanging for 1 second.lucky shafique he caught it.it was scaree leh. damn scaree.i accidentally let go of it cuz i din hold tight enuf to hold on to my weight.hmm.nvmlah at least i jumped.khehee.the other high elements i cudnt do was the last one.that is climbing this pole wif rock climbing tiles.i was tired so i cudn't carry my weight much.i only climb until about 2/3 of it.i think.
campfire i like!
our performance was the best.obviously.it wasnt graded but can see lah.first up 12H danced hornily to the song 'Do you want to' by Franz Ferdinand.the music cut off halfwae and we sang the class acapella-'the reason' by hoobastank wif a twist. basically last part was 'and the reason is..AQUILA!'
haha
then since its a combined campfire performance,43A continued wif their own percussion performance.we supported them by the side by playing around wif the class bandana n dancing to the groove.haha.
shawn the emcee said 'i think that was the best performance'
AQUILA CHEERS LOUDLY!!...
so happy =) this is the best campfire performance i did. thanx 12H n 43A!u rock!

day 3
haiz. we're going back soon. but before anuything we have to do big sweep.aka area cleaning. thank god me, samuel n wilson cleaned the guys toilet earlier cuz we were posted to cleaning that veyr biys toilet.it was rather clean at that time.so our scrubbing was less intense.oh wait.it was still intense cuz we wanted the toilet to be 5star hotel-sparkling clean.n indeed it was at the end of the dae.happee...
too bad our class didn't win the best CG award.shud i feel guilty?hmm..anyway after dismissal we went to KFC and gobble up our food like we never ate before.k fine dats an exaggeration but u get wad i mean rite..

hahahhahaa...

PRSS 21st Speech Day 2006

on the 8th of April 2006, pasir ris secondary school celebrates her 21st birthday. today is the speech and prize giving ceremony. im so happy ill be receiving my school Colours Award(Gold) for Students' Council. hehe. i decided to wear ij tie with ij uniform but then the tie doesn't match with the uniform. really. imagone blue and cream. eew. so i decided to get a brown ij pullover. thanks to rafidah i got one. yay. so i put on the pullover and tie when i reached there. woah. its so nice. its not that warm actuali. well cuz i didn't run around(dUh). haha. the teachers and some of my friends thought it was nice. well indeed it was. and no innovians don't wear this everyday to college(u have got to be kidding). the college should make us wear this set when taking prize, CG photo or any other formal events when the college blazer is used. so u can imagine prize winners for ijc 1st speech day wearing ij uniform, tie n pullover, while student officials wear ij uniform, tie n blazer. yea.

oh and many were surprised when they found out that all ij uniforms are fitted with tight bands at the bottom to make it look tucked in. so while otehr college students fit in their shoe laces into their uniform or tuck them in, innovians don't have to. jealous? haha.

today the principal unveiled a sculpture to represent our school. its quite interesting though. its called 'Vivo Pasirina'. haha. it looks like this stylized flower made of steel/brass. very nice. we took a picture with the sculpture with Mr Ow. the excos(xcept rena), ms jiang and mr Ow dat is.
food was nice and we excos did our normal routine. we made our own buffet line. haha. oh i have a picture...


so fUnny...

i was so looking forward to having fun at wild wild wet downtown east. i completed my houseworks over 2 days so that i can enjoy myself. yep. wild wild wet. on mE. actuali its cuz i have 4 complimentary tix. haha. but too bad only three came-me, azfar n farhan. hakim cudn't come cuz he doesn't wanna get any more black(uRgh) and cuz he's broke for makan after fun, ameerul went JB, zai cudn't be contacted and faizal in the end cudn't come(not his fault though). i was quite pissed only three came but well. we'll juz go next week. hope it doesn't procrastinate cuz the complimentary tix is only until 31st march. anyway i wasted $10 on the funkey card that is needed to pay for locker usage n stuff. if only i knew i cud have just saved that $10 and use it for something else. like. err. new bag? haha. anyway the funkey card is actually this so called downtown east membership card that has a stored value and can collect points. so u can use it at places like WWW or the funkey balls(pool and fooseball) to pay or collect points. so i shud make use of this -err- privilage. but i wonder what i can do wif the points collect. redeem stuff? hmm.

so the three of us decided to go next week with more pasirians so that we rEally eNj0y ourselves. woohoo. so pasirians/tpjc-ians mUz all psycho hakim to go =)
i can provide sun block (spf 30). haha.

BK, off we go cuz theres the student offer meal. well. not really. today's a weekEnd. so ill juz buy the bk big fish meal. healthier alternative (and cheap) though i didn't change the c0ke to like -err- milo or wtv. i cant afford to spend more money man. gotta save up. then spend later. haha. lets see. hmm. havaianas sandals? new bag? ill see how. haha.
we caught up on things while eating since we're separated now. farhan n azfar at tpjc while me eNj0yiNg in inN0va. =>
haha. wonder where to go next. wonder. wonder. lan gaming? pool? home? hmm. in the end we just went to T.mart n played lan gaming. haha. farhan's gonna teach me a game since i dun game. they were quite surprised i ever laid my fingers n eyes on CS(wadehell). im not a pro but i eVer played. d0ta it shall be. wtv that is. it was quite interesting though hours of playing d0ta cud result in myopia, headache and excessive sebum production. haha. really. i have a new theory on me. i shall call it the J theory. haha.
it states: long hours of computer and fast work triggers and increase in jazimin's facial sebum production.
haha. but true. thank god im using a cleanser that controls sebum production. if not oil wud be dripping of my face. GROSS! ewww...

dota is quite interesting and -my god- rather addictive. but fret not the game cost about 70bux and by the time i save to such amount of money(which rarely happens), dota wud only become the opportunity cost incured, ceteris peribus. haha. applying econs here. L. lemme juz reiterate in simple english.
basically if i hAppen to save $70 ill buy something else rather than dota or some game. simple?

anyway i had to leave for home already. gtg pray, relax n probably study. oh yes i hafta complete my assignments n tutorial if not then im s0 dead. haha.

EXCO lunch

its been a long time since we had an exco outing. so today is de day where PRSS SC 9th EXCO gather + ms jiang who treated us (THANKS CHER!)

so after prayers i went to tampines mall pizza hut. i thougth they're all already inside so i juz entered the restaurant. i then found out that they're not inside. wakaka. so i went out and stood by the railings. hmm. ill call si han. damn hp got problems. hmm. oh wait. isn't that jik yuan? n wait isn't that hidayu n stacie? WAHAHA. i stood beside them without noticing them. haha. anyway we ask for table for 8 though in the end only 7 turned up. rena had to work while ms wong cudn't come in the end

ms jiang was late so we ordered first. we ordered like a set meal of 4 (that wud be like 1 cheese lava pizza, 1 hawaian pizza, 4 bowls of soups and pepsi), beef lasagna and chicken-err- baked pasta?something liddat i guess.

eat

ms jiang then ordered MORE. yay! lets see. so we have calamaris and chicken drumlets. yay! haha. lucky for us the restaurant wasn't packed when we finished eating. so we cud like sit down and crap. well not crap exactly. juz talk about things back in PRSS like ms cheng wanted collapsable stuff (hall-cum-ava-that-can-host-lotsa-pple-dunno-wad-lah), the jog-a-thon and nearing speech day. yay for us excos we're getting the colours award. wonder what i shall wear on speech day. innova uni + tie? but the colours dun match. should i add the ij pullover. it wud be warm but at least it looks nicer. hmm.

College Life

u have to read ur notes beforehand, really pay attention during lectures rush to other end of the college and start tutorial where u can ask questions n homeworks are gone through
homeworks aren't little ok
true enough: dun procrastinate
u have assignments, tutorials etc
plus project work question is gonna come out soon
betta start doing n planning when it is released
n my God, science practical at As isn't one shot at the end of year 2
its spread out over 2 years (one's at year 1 around may i think)

Innova Junior College Orientation 2005

Bode'Wadmi- Day Four

Alright, thank God today's whether isn't bad. We went to the grand stand for the briefing for the second game and proceed to play. At first i wanted to throw the water bombs 'cause of insufficient people. But as people volunteered i decided to run.

When we proceeded tot he starting point, Alex went up to me and started talking about running as though i know a lot about running. He started to know my past like me running for sports day last year. He asked me whether i could run fast and i juz answered 'quite '. So i just asked him what was it that made him think that i could run fast, and he began his explanation. He said that since he is in the track & field team, he recognises the different types of calves. So let me get to the point: he praised my calves as of an athletes'!!
I was so happy 'cuz nobody has ever praised my calves.haha.
Well maybe the shape of calves is like that because in primary skool i was in athletics(i was a pathetic runner, seriously) and that now i run when there's an emergency(RC people are first aiders mah...)

Anyway, today's wargame was quite though. We had to like run pass human walls formed by our team members and our opponents alternately. For the first few times i managed to pass them. But later it juz seems quite impossible. In the end, i didn't score any points, but getting wet and running all over is fun enough. haha.

After war games, we got changed and went to the nearest mosque(in Woodlands) which was near the Woodlands checkpoint. The mosque was quite old(like Ansar in Bedok) and I didn't really like it there though. I hope theres another mosque other than An-Nur. Btw a councillor(Hanafi) led us to the mosque. I really should have known someone was having nose bleed. At least i could apply first aid. hmm...nvm he's alright...

After prayers we walked around checkpoint area. It was nothing much but just an old place with not many interesting shops. We missed clan meetings btw. haha.

We quickly made our way back to school and went to the CCA fair. It is today that we signed up for a cca. I knew what i was going to choose. Anything watersports =)
When i was at the hall, i saw a very prominent banner. It says 'Red Cross Humanitarian Network'. haha. I did thought of joining RCHN but i think i'd go for watersports. And guess who i saw?! DOREEN MA'AM! haha... Its been a long time since I saw her. I greeted her and she said 'hey!what are you doing here?don't you live somewhere in pasir ris/tampines?' haha... Then she tried to persuade me in joining RCHN and told the J2 that i MUST join RCHN since once an RC cadet, alwaes RC. haha.
Too bad they only have one watersports cca- Canoe/Dragon Boat. Well canoeing and dragon boating is quite ok. Alex kept on telling me to join track & field saying i have the legs. haha. NO WAY. I only run when there's an emergency =)

After dinner, was the BOOMBA nite! woohoo. Boomba nite is the orientation nite where the clans gather and celebrate. Also, the bets clan would be given the Golden Maple Leaf. I hope Blackfoot wins it!
The nite started off with the entrance of the principal and the emcees. Then, the four tribes presented their item. Firstly was Miccosukee whoch was quite impressive. Then Walla walla's was less impressive but good enough. Now i don't think Blackfoot can win. But we'll see. During Dakota's item, we went 2 the back of the hall and stole time to pray. It was raining then. Blackfoot's performance was engaging in that the last part involves the participation of the whole hall audience; that is the FRIENDSHIP DANCE conducted by KHALDUN! woohoo!

it was quite difficult to control the crowd-duh its like at least 500 studEnts. in the end it was fun.those who NEVER heard of friendship dance(thats sad) can now dance.then it was time to gr00ve!YAY...this time grooving is better than PRSS prom =x
haha...cuz its wif a larger crowd, there's spotlights and the deejay was cool. yes fine wtv farhan tpjc has 987 deejay but SO what?! lol

dance
groove
dance
hit nose
ouch!
bleed
bleed
toilet

really. it was quite funny though =x anyway fadhli, me, khal, nizham, faiz, heider, alex(the whole gang of us) were dancing in a circle. then fadhli put his hand up and suddenly hit alex's nose. ouch. 'im so sorry' 'nah its ok'
and then: 'n0se blEed!'
i rushed alex to the toilet at the back of the stage and applied first aid. this nose bleed took a long time to stop though. anyway he was afraid of this punch cuz he once got hit by a zooming soccer ball and thus fractured his nose. but thankfully his nose was still alright and not crooked whatesoeva.

unfortunately the gr0oving had to end.i was damn sweating l0r! haha..anyway the OGLs then treated us to anotehr mass dance by pink. ian the president paired up wif this hot gal. haha. wtv. i tink this dance is better than the other mass dance('its so easy'). the moves are cooler but u have to be paired up lah. mebbe thats why they didn't teach us this mass dance cuz it wud be messy for freshies to find partners. n same sex partners would be t0tally wEird. hmm.. dance dance. we thought it wiuld end just like that but then the OGLs continued by dedicating songs to us. they sang songs while playing guitar. gosh it was so nice. this councillor hanafi sang well man. he cud like reach a higher pitch voice or wtv u call it. damn impressive. i found out later that he's from choir. not surprised. OGLs shud stop this. its preventing me from going home. going home is not fast alrite. approx 45/50mins frm woodlands to tampines. thank god they ended it. we went back home. we as in easterners. yup. its me n khal frm PRSS, masselia frm TKGS, faiz frm TKSS, heider frm East Spring SS n nizham frm Dunman SS. we easterners shud stick together. go skool together etc. i juz hope they all stay after Os results are out. hmm...

Innova Junior College Orientation 2005

Bode'Wadmi- Day Three

After assembly, we handed in our subj. combi forms and went down to the grand stand for mass dance. woohoo! its so easy. That's the song. Its quite easy indeed though.

After mass dance, we had our Boomba briefing followed by the clan meeting. Boomba is the name of the orientation night. I heard that there's no campfire. Thats sad. Anyway i hope its gonna be fun.

During our clan meeting we invented our performance. In the end, a group of Northlanders came up with an idea. It sounds great, but i dun know how well it will bring us to the success of getting the Golden Maple Leaf. The GML is a prize the clan will get for being the best clan. That's according to legend. It is said to possess magical powers. hmm...really?

Lunch wasn't really great cuz i couldn't eat, but i met 2 new friends via Khaldun. Best of all, they're easterners! They're Nizham from Dunman sec and Heider from EastSpring. Intitially, i thought Heider was Hydil but pronounced wrongly by pple. haha. And i got confused whether the Dunman guy is Khairul or Nizham. Then i found out that he is Khairul Nizham. hahaha. i thot i was wrong!

Unfortunately due to bad whether, my clan and another couldn't play wargames 1. Only the other 2 clans managed to play. But fear not, theres another wargames the next day. woohoo!

Innova Junior College Orientation 2005

Bode'Wadmi-Day Two

My sister said that the second day of orientation is where most of the fun activities would be done. Not true though. It's all talks and talks for the whole day. Thank God i miss almost all of them.Nope i didn't play truant. In the morning i went to National Dental Centre(NDC) to put in spacers. What it does is that it moves some teeths away from each other so that the next stage of braces can be done. The feeling is so uneasy. It's like flossing with a super thick dental floss. Probably about 1mm thick. geesh. Anyway when i returned IJC, i had to walk all the way to the front gate at Champions Way. Firstly i walked the wrong way. So i had to walk more. haizz. But thankfully Faiz was there to accompany me. Btw Faiz is this guy from TKSS and from my orientation tribe.

Did i mention that i missed a bus stop when going to skool?causing me to end up in Sengkang? It's like this: NDC is at outram park. So from there i took the train to woodlands. True enough. Then i took 161 to skool. True again. But because the bus stop isn't directly in front of IJC and i didn't know the distance from IJC to woodlands, i missed a bus stop, leading me to Sengkang via SLE. haiz...

I couldn't eat much for lunch. After queing up i saw this girl staring at me from the corner of my eye. I looked pass her and she's still staring. So i looked at her in the eye. EH! 'Are you frm Temasek?' Indeed it was true. It was Bao Zhen. See i remember her name though she didn't. haha..I've met my long lost primary skool friends. woohoo! haha...

After break we went to the hall for a super long subject talk. I regret returning to skool.haha...

Innova Junior College Orientation 2005

Bode'Wadmi-Day One

Me, Boon Ern and Khaldun coordinated with each other and took the same bus to IJC;168. The bus came at about 7am and the journey on the doucble decker bus was about 35-40 mins depending on the speed of the bus. After leaving Tampines Library, the bus went to a few more stops in Tampines(say about 6-7 stops...) before entering the TPE. And whoosh we went to skool. Actualy i shouldn't use the word 'whoosh' cuz the bus wasn't travelling fast. We then went to the Seletar camp after about 15minutes in the expressway and returned to TPE/SLE for another 10 minutes of travelling before reaching school.

Unfortunately the bus stop isn't directly in front of the school. We had to walk a distance to school. Probably like from Tamps. MRT to Tamps. interchange. Yeah. So good luck to people like me on rainy days. From far(and later near) the school looks marvellous. Duh its a new school set up last year(2005). We went in the school and hang around the canteen area. Then we moved to the parade square. When we were told to assemble, i could see the disorganization of the 1st Student Council and Orientation Group Leaders. They were holding papers that has the orientation group number written but the SCs and OGLs did not raised the cards. Instead they just stand around and talk among themselves. Later, we were told to line up in rows of 10. Hello?Like how many of us will cooperate? And it'll make matters worse when we proceed to the hall later. Btw, we saw Ms Yeo!haha...

The flag raising ceremony was odd. The commander said 'school sediya!' when it should be 'maktab sediya!' rite?I mean thats what most JCs do.
Anyway after the flag raising ceremony we proceeded to the hall and settled down. Ms Yeo started talking about the school and i found out what our school name and motto means.

Innova= a new(in-) star(-nova)
Ad astra= to the stars
School emblem= the blue waves symbolizes water(continous learning-i think), orange line symbolizes something like fresh or vibrant i think and purple star means eagerness to learn i think. Also its like a torch and it is in the figure of '1'.

The names to our Orientation Group number were revealed-both clans and tribes. My clan is Blackfoot while tribe is Atsina. Basically clan is like houses while tribe is like group. yeah. After moving to our tribe, played ice breakers and received our orientation bag(an M1 bag with stuff including IJC bottle and shoe bag and 2 Bode'Wadmi shirts-mines green), we continued with the programme, that is mass dance!woohoo!They used this song that has the lyrics 'its so easy, its alright...' I don't know the title of the song though. Anyway it was quite fun and easy to learn.

After mass dance we had our clan meeting and then lunch. Unfortunately there's only two halal stalls.haiz. Other stalls include western delights, thai food etc. I bought mee siam for lunch. It was quite spicy even after i removed the sambal(chilli). wah seh. We report about 2 and played the station games. It wasn't quite lame and we enjoyed ourselves.

Day One orientation ended at about 5. Tiring but fun.

Prom Nite 2005

Shining Stars

Tonight was one of the most memorable days of my life. It was the first ever Prom Nite for Pasir Ris Sec. School after a period of silence for about 5 years-thanks to the 9th and 10th Student Council EXCO-hehe. Anyway I went to Orchid Country Club via Hakim's dad's car with him and Khairani. I quite thought i was disturbing their privacy.haha. The journey wasn't quite long cuz we went via expressway.

Upon arrival, we left the Mercedes car with glamour. I straighten my coat and went up the stairs. Btw, I wore a brown-cream striped OP long sleeve shirt, an olive coloured pants, a coat that felt like a carpet and has some shiny beads arranged to form the letter 'J'-i ironed that myself and a brown Puma shoe. So basically my colour theme is BROWN.and its shades.

We then proceeded to the ballroom.Sorry. A function room rather. It was quite small u see. We met up with our friends shook hands. Farhan's dressing was so cool! It doesn't fit his personality but who cares?he looks like Jon Bon Jovi seh. And yet he didn't like his dressing. He claimed that it was informal when the rest wore something formal. Hakim and Farhan should switch their outfit. Hakim's rather rough u see, while Farhan should go for formality. Hmm.

Anyway we treated ourselves with the buffet when Mdm Mariam came up to us. She should wear something more stunning tough.Anyway she was kind to tell us a place to pray. YAY. so we quickly finished up our food and proceeded to another room. It was our responsibility to inform the rest of the prayer room. However dissapointment came to us. BIG dissapointment. Can you believe it? OUR Muslim people actually would rather watch the performance than pray?OMG. One guy even shook his head which meant 'It's okay'. Humble my foot! Geesh. In total only 4 pple prayed there. Me, Hakim, Farhan and this sec5 guy i dunno his name. truely dissapointed. Well girls are quite excused cuz i dun think i saw a telekong(used for girls to pray) and they have make up on etc. To the rest of the guys who didn't get the news im so sorry cuz we have to beat the 8 o'clock dateline and we thought that pple would be smart and responsible enough to spread the news.

Anyway i enjoyed prom. For sure it was better than my pri. skool's cuz we get to grooved and there's a lucky draw. Wasted my camera battery went flat halfway through the prom. All 4 batteries aye. Food was nice but i didn't eat alot. Cuz time was spent grooving, chatting and sipping coke/sprite. I didn't have much soft drink-bad for ur health.hehe. Wasted i didn't win anything during the lucky draw. Farhan and Hakim got something.

Anyway prom was fun lah. I don't mine having an encore.

Thailand trip Day 6

8th December 2005

We didn't do anything much today. Just breakfast at the hotel restaurant, packed bags and checked out. The trip from the hotel to the airpor was VERY long, my sister slept during most of the journey. haha. We checked in and got in line for immigrations check. Soon later we hanged out at the gate and ate some fruit chips. Quite nice. When it was time, we boarded the plane. I went to the toilet once during the flight and found out that the plane has many empty seats. What a waste, but who cares?hehe. Unfortunately we ate the same thing we had when going to Bangkok from Singapore and i listened to exactly the same music as when going to Bangkok, in the same order. Dejavu. hahaha. Upon arrival at Singapore Changi Airport, we went through immigrations faster than the foreigners and took the cab home. HOME SWEET HOME!!

now, must prepare for tomorrow(9 dec)
PROM NITE 2005!
woohoo...

Thailand trip Day 5

7th December 2005

Breakfast at the hotel restaurant was fabulous.There was a wide variety of food that my family could eat,like the mashed potato,danish, crossaint,vegetarian dishes and salad.I personally like the mashed potato (though some are not really mashed up) where i put an italian dressing and some salad dressings on it.It was perfect.The italian dressing made a bit of the sour taste while the salad dressing is healthy.But beware, don't take too much or you'll feel like vomitting.Yup. Not that i had vomitted though.We went back to the hotel to do what we always do;letting it all go.After that we left the hotel to start our tour around Bangkok.The streets of Bangkok hold many historic monuments and sculptures and decorations to commemorate the King's birthday. The streets were quite busy at that time and we passed several fast food restaurant including the ancient A&W.Unfortunately all of the fast food resturants aren't Halal.Now who the heck labelled A&W as a Halal foodstore on the internet?tsk tsk tsk.

Anyway we reached our destination.Surprisingly we had to take a long boat that could occupy about 30 people down the river.I was hoping a lot from this.The boat started moving and soon a tour guide started introducing herself and the river.It was the quite famous Chao Phraya river.The 'Phraya' isn't pronounced at it is.Instead it is pronounced as 'Phya'.That is if my memory did not fail me.The ride was a bit bumpy but all in all it was awesome.The tour guide was efficient.She ran through some key words to say during our stay in Thailand and introduced the significance of the river and the buildings we passed.There were many temples but I only remembered one.It was nicknamed as the 'James Bond temple'.No, James Bond did not build it but it was that temple that one of the episodes of James Bond 007 was shot at.Yup.We moved down the river and saw this place where we could feed the fishes with bread our tour guide gave us.It was catfishes that we fed to.The sign indicating the place where there is a lot of catfish was very funny.


Im so bad...

Anyway there was a lot of hungry fishes coming up to the surface as soon as we started feeding them.They must be really hungry!Soon we continued our journey where we saw this HUGE lizards on the edge of the river.They looked like komodo dragons, but a little smaller than that, probably half as tall and half as thin as me if they were to stand on 2 legs(in which they didn't). Later, there was a lady in a smaller boat that went against our direction.She was selling some handicrafts from her floating shop. There used to be a lot of such smaller boats that formed the floating market.The government then reduced the huge number to only a few as to make way for a passage for tourists like us.Yay. We stopped after a few minutes of travelling once again where we visited a local shop selling local merchandise like souveniers,clothes and handicrafts.The half an hour long break was a necessity to shopaholics and tolietholics.What a coincidence!My mom found out that one of our boatmates is my aunty's friend(with her family)!haha.What a small world.

Soon we boarded the boat again and stopped later at the local snake zoo.We didn't want to go in not only cuz its quite expensive but the fact that we were very tired and just wanted to rest.The rest was certainly fruitful but a little extra long.We continued our journey by ending at where we started.Unfortunately the tide was high and some barricades that protects the buildings near to sides of the river was activated.We had to wait for it to open, enter and wait for another barricade to open.Its somehow like the one in the Suez Canal just that it is simpler.It took about a total of 15minutes before we set off to our starting point, passing government buildings and more temples.

Back on dry land and in the van!We now proceeded to another restaurant for lunch.On the way, we saw something we don't see in modern Singapore.A protest.Yup.It wasn't scary as they weren't very rebellious.Armed with orange headbands, they marched their way against our direction.


The food wasn't that fantastic but it was enough to fill our stomachs.My mom ordered spring rolls that had chicken fillings, to be taken back to our hotel for muching purposes.After lunch, we prayed at a mosque across the street where we met my aunty's friend's family again!haha...

We then went to a local jewellery store where they showed us how they make their jewel studded products.The precious stones ranges from ruby to sapphires.If I'm not wrong, this is the only place where you can find authentic and cheap jewellery since it is the largest precious stone production factory in the world and that the stones are from Thailand itself.

Next, it was shopping time at the largest shopping mall in Bangkok.The Mah Bung Krong(MBK).That should be how you spell it.I guess.Here is where i bought my coat and belt for prom.The coat cost me 1600baht(about S$64) while the belt 350baht(aboutS$14).The coat was originally about 1880 baht while the belt 390baht.So it was quite a good deal i guess knowing that u can bargain.But don't even try to bargain at Tokyu.Tokyu is this shop that is similar to Metro or Isetan.And obviously u cant bargain with them rite?

We went back to our hotel my taking the sky train system.Let me introduce you to the sky train system.Firstly, like the MRT system in Singapore, it is run by 2 companies, forming the MRTA and BTS(we took the BTS).Secondly the distance apart between stations of the sky train is about the same to the distance apart between stations in our LRT system.So the prices isn't as expensive as the ones in our MRT if you were to buy the single trip tickets or the standard tickets.Its like 10baht(40cents) for one station.Well of course if you were to travel about 5 stations, it would be cheaper than50 baht.say around 40 or 35 baht?Did i mention that the Bangkok sky train would bring memories to our passe fare card?Well the Bangkok sky train system used the fare card system.You know, those thin flexible magnetic cards we have?I bought the cheapest one for memory.haha.

That's my sister buying the tickets.I taught her how to buy the tickets.haha =)

Our ride was 4 stations long.We boarded at National Stadium and dropped down at Nana.Btw the announcer had to speak both in Thai and English and the train is about the size of 2 LRT carriages and the ride was very seamless.Probably cuz its small compared to the 6 carriage MRT.Or is it 8?I forgot.

We reached Nana and with the help of a salesperson, found our way back to hotel.We quickly prayed and left for dinner at First Hotel, where we had our first lunch upon arrival.Today's dinner is a buffet of tomato rice or plain rice, chicken,vegetable, and frien wanton!YAY.Gosh the fried wanton was nice especially if u add the chilli sauce that was a bit hot.

After dinner we took the van back. My parents wanted to go to MBK centre for some shopping but then due to some miscommunication between us and the driver, we went back to the hotel. Furthermore, if we were to go MBK centre, most of the shops would be closed by then. On our way back we saw some elephants along the streets. I was so shocked that there were elephants along the capital state of Bangkok especially along the busy streets. There were two owners to each elephant who were selling bananas and sugar cane for people to feed them. The elephants quickly eat the food when given the food unlike in Chiangmai. The elephant must be very hungry. Things people would do to make business. They'll make the elephant go slightly hungry so that it'll eat whatever the people give.

Thailand trip Day 4

6th December 2005

Thank God today will be the last dejavu breakfast at Lotus Hotel.Before breakfast i thought of looking at the swimming pool since i didn't have time to visit the pool before.Unfortunately it was closed so i couldn't swim.Instead i just walked around the premises.Its quite nice lah.Beside the pool is this place where you can chill known something as 'Sah Lah Fah Ham'.Well it sounds like 'salah faham' which means 'misuderstood' in Malay.haha.So funny

Anyway after breakfast we went to the pool area as a family before heading back to our rooms to let go and get ready for our departure.Yup letting it all go.Again.

We then went out of the hotel and walked around the area near our hotel.By the way, did i mentioned that there is a lot of 7-eleven shops nearby.Once i saw two stores across the street,facing each other.What the?I don't see any purpose.Anyway my sister came across a signboard to all drivers.Unfortunately it was poorly said.Meaning that the English was poor.Why not take a look.

Gosh that is so funny.
Fault 1:the sign is for cars only, not all vehicles
Fault 2:be afraid,or else you'll be finded...muhahaha...
Fault 3:"disobey must..."?
Fault 4:Pedestrains?Choo choo...

We checked out about half an hour early and so sat at the hotel lobby to read newspaper and wait for our tour guide.When it was about time, she fetched us and we took a picture together before leaving for the airport.Our flight was about at 12.15 in the noon.Yup.The flight would be from Chiang Mai to Bangkok.Taking the plane is so fun.hehee

The tour guide might look like Ms Annabel Ho at some angle.My hair sucks cuz i didn't style it.

Anyway we then proceeded to ChiangMai International Airport.Each Thai airlines has a name.The one i took to Bangkok from ChiangMai is called Srisoonthorn.By the way before the plane we bought some Lays to eat whenever we feel like muching.Now here's the twist.The word 'Lays' isn't written as it is.It is written as 'Lau'.the 'u' is actually a Thai alphabet.So instead of Lays, its Lau.WALAU! khahaha...Then what happened was the whole packet became very turgid when we were at high altitude in the plane.The Lau is so hard,its like a balloon.Gosh i feel like bursting it.haha...

Thats my sister.As in the thumbs up lah...

We reached Bangkok International Airport and there is no need for our passports to be checked.Well cuz its still within Thailand u see.Our tour guide wasn't there, but we were welcomed by the driver who could speak very little English.First stop, First Hotel for lunch.The road to the hotel was a long one, passing highways and busy roads.It feels like in Singapore where you have the expressways and busy road.The time in Bangkok is one hour later than Singapore.
We finally reached the hotel and waited a few minutes before food is served.We met a Singaporean family in the hotel.My mom chatted with them and found a similarity.We both know my sister's friends's family.Riiiite...
Food is here.It was quite hot but its still nice.Duh hotel food must be nice mah.

We left for our hotel(Ambassador Hotel) which is quite a distant away from First Hotel.We tooked a long time to checked in(I wonder why).Before that i went to the toilet to let go.I shall not elaborate much.But lets just say that the flushing wasn't easy.haha

Dissapointingly the hotel room wasn't fabulous.I expected the standards to be higher than in Chiangmai cuz Bangkok is the capital of Thailand mah.Firstly the design wasn't great, secondly the 'bed skirt' was dirty, thirdly there was no complimentary drink unlike in Chiangmai,fourthly the toilet is small and WORSE it had a bad view of a construction site(dun really blame the management much).haiyo...i mean WaLau..haha
guess what?I can't swim here.The pool is under renovation.Its suppose to end on the 5th of December,but its delayed.haiz...

We spent the whole afternoon in the hotel either relaxing, unpacking and then walking around the hotel area until about 6 where we prayed(its at 7 in Singapore) and left for dinner.It was only when we're going to our dinner restaurant that we met our tour guide and another family from Singapore.My mom chatted with the mum of the other family on our journey to the restaurant.When we reached there, we were invited to this restaurant where it had all the Arabic writings and nice Malay decorations.few minutes later a family of 7 arrived and joined us.So now we have a table with 12 people.All Singaporeans.All Malay.That is unless some of them are Javanese, Boyanese or wtv.Main point we speak Malay.Dinner was nice.Rice, fish, meat,tom yam, vegetables and some other dishes.After dinner we decided to go to the night bazaar.It was this time that we saw some weird coloured taxis.They come in green and yellow, red, purple and HOT PINK.Yup.Different colours represents the different companies just like in Singapore where we have blue, yellow, silver, white but sadly not pink.haha.
