-*- My Grades?
You Have A Type B+ Personality |
You're a pro at going with the flow You love to kick back and take in everything life has to offer A total joy to be around, people crave your stability. While you're totally laid back, you can have bouts of hyperactivity. Get into a project you love, and you won't stop until it's done You're passionate - just selective about your passions |
Hmmmm does this sound like me to you? A little I guess.. Taking everything life has to offer sounds like a slacker who does not go out to make something happen for herself.. Hahaha that sounds like me alright... Hehe.. Pro at going with the flow? Hmmmm maybe, Hate to make decisions for groups.. Worried about them not liking what I plan etc etc.. Yeah sure, that's me.. And I think the "won't stop until it's done" sounds like me.... As in I'm the kind that if I feel that I need to do something, I MUST do it... Doesn't even matter if I'm not supposed to do it... Errrrr that applies to most things only lah.... Alot of other things I also bochup... Hehe.. Selective about my passions? So I have few passions? Maybe.. Hahahah sleeping considered passion? Heheh... But well, the grade sounds good enough for me la... Like Vin says, I "have to learn to live with mediocrity...."

-*- Bangkok:
Zee needed these......
Stuff I needed to survive this trip.....Lots, lots, lots of rest....
In a big comfy bed....
On the superior floor... We were bumped up to a Superior Room, instead of the Deluxe Room that we booked, for free!!! Because the hotel was out of Deluxe Rooms... Wicked!!!
The pweeeeetty hotel... The Twin Towers Hotel...
But the locals pronounce it "Ter Te-Weeen Towerrr"....
Taxis to bring me around! So I didn't have to be walking unneccesary distances!! Heh...
And dirty tuk-tuks to bring me around in the dirtiest possible way....... This one at least looks DECENT... Because it is the hotel's tuk-tuk... The ones I sat were much dirtier and less spacious!!!
And tell me, WHO doesn't neeeeed food????
Yummy Yummy Snacks......
While I can't give them enough credits, I can't find a decent picture of my trusty and colourful and pretty plastic zippity-bags.... They are huge by the way... And definitely very fashionable.. Grooooooovy!
The blue one above was bought in Hong Kong and the pink one below was bought during this trip.. We brought the pink one around to put all the stuff that we buy... It's sometimes not enough.. But we had to make do... Hahaha.. Oh! And we took turns to take it... But mostly, it's Erjie carrying it, since I'm a lousier shopper....
Stuff I saw when I was shopping to perk me UP! Like a crazy woman..... She had the Christmas Decor as a wig and she changes colours probably everyday (she was in two different colours on two different days that I went Sam Pheng).... To match her clothes I presume....
Or a puny dog...
Teeeny Weeny Doooog!
Isn't it so tiny!!!!
Act cute moments...
It's neccesary to act cute, really... Kills boredom, you know?
Some hiao moments
Okay, fine, Many Many Many hiao moments....
Yupz.. Hiao-ing in the hotel room as well...
Okay... A lot more, but this is the last that I will torture you with.... ;)
Many many pairs of comfy comfy shoes to help me survive the endless toturous shopping that my Shopping Queen Sister did... We bought a lot more.. Only wore these during the trips though......
Last but not least........
A crazeeeee sister....
(Haiz.. This blogpost has been a killer... Was doing it in the morning before I slept, like from 12 plus to about 3 am ++, and my stupid PC crashed.... Luckily I remembered what I said and everything... Three hours were gone like that.. Now the finished product... Please appreciate hor.....)

-*- What killed Zee in Bangkok?
Okay... Fine, so my Bangkok trip was about a week ago, but I still wanna blog about it.. But since I'm like in the middle of a little project that my aunt got me to help her with, I shall do my Bangkok trip in smallER doses.. It's also a friendlier method.. For you and for me... But this is still a very long post.. Main post ma... Just read la... Heheh...Okay.. So what killed me in Bangkok?
*Drumrolls*
The endless shopping!!!!
Surprise Surprise right? If you really think that I can shop endlessly, Meet my sister......
Look at how happy she was on the way back to hotel from shopping!!
Anyway, from the start of the trip.........
After we reached at about 4pm SG Time.. We went to Mah Boon Krong... Mah Boon Krong is one happening shopping centre in Bangkok.. We always go there whenever we go Bangkok.. But things have changed and the stuff there, though still happening, have gotten very much more expensive...
So shopping there wasn't too much fun.. But thanks to the shopaholic sister of mine, we managed to go out of MBK and move on to greener pastures... We went to this place with many many many MANY small shops which sell many many many MANY different things.. From clothes, to shoes, to clothes, to accessories, to shoes, to bags, to accessories, to clothes, to bags, to shoes, to clothes, to accessories, to bags, to clothes, to shoes, to bags, to accessories to anything that all girls need... I managed to get a pair of okay-looking denim skirt... Fantastic shopping there, although quite killing (because my legs were killing me..), but still was a little fun.. Hehe.. And we bought quite a lot of things.. I bought about 10 pairs of earrings (Some are for friends hor...) that night..
Then it was time for Patpong.. We left for Patpong (a night market) so late it was unbelievable.. How can any sane person be leaving for shopping at 1145pm?! Even in Bangkok time, it was 1045pm!! But oh well, it's a night market and it's a must-go for my family and me whenever we go Bangkok.... It's a street with a lot of stalls set up only at night for shoppers that didn't get enough in the day... Along the stretch of stalls are Clubs and Pubs.. Strip Clubs available too.. Hahah.. So when shopping there, you will sometimes be pulled by the "bouncers" to go inside for "Thai Girl Shows" (commonly known as "Tiger Shows"... Hahaha, it was then that I realised what that "Tiger" is a misprounciation of "Thai Girls")... Anyway, saw a pair of nice denim skirt but price haggling went unsuccessful so I didn't buy....
Anyway, my legs were in major pain when we were shopping through the street.... But even after Patpong closed, at 1am BKK Time, we continued to walk along the road, as there are a lot more street stalls... Tired Tired Pain Pain......
Finally, at 2am BKK Time (3am SG Time!!!), we left that place for the hotel... Can you believe it? We shopped from 4 in the afternoon till 3 in the morning!!! Goodnesss......
The next day (Sunday, 11 Dec), we went Chatuchat... The weekend market that she so looks forward to... And I so did not... Mainly because I knew she would shop till I dropped... dead.. Hahahaha.. Which she kinda did, but thankfully for me, she left me somewhere to sit after I started complaining about my legs in pain, no longer just aching, they were in PAIN... AND I was still having diarrhoea from when I was in Sngapore.... Brrr.. So I went to sit down some stupid open air hot "cafe" to sit.. It's very hot there.. Chatuchat was hot by itself... And the place was cooking so it's exceptionally hot..
While I was resting myself, falling asleep, calling Dear, eating, drinking and what-not, Erjie was happily shopping, shopping and shopping... Bought a lot more things than when I was shopping with her.. Hahah.. And she got me the pretty denim skirt that I was eyeing in Patpong.. So sweeeeeet right? Hee..
After Chatuchat, we decided to go back and drop our buys (er, more of her buys.. Heh) at the hotel.. And I decided to con her into showing me all the stuff that she bought when I was at the "cafe".. So as to gain more time for myself to rest before she goes crazy shopping again...
But we did leave for shopping after an hour of her parading around in all her new stuff..
We went back to MBK again... But this time we didn't shop much there.. Instead, we went to this new shopping place called Siam Paragon... We discovered it on the first day... Went back there on the 2nd day....
Can't see very clearly, but the outside of this place is very prettily decorated...
The inside is busy like mad.....
With a BEEEEEEG supermarket....
First of all, Siam Paragon is NEW... Like Super New.. Hahaha when we first discovered it, 10th Dec, it was only the SECOND day of opening!!! The official date of opening was 9th Dec... Cool right? Another thing about this place is that it ONLY sells high-end stuff... Er... Dont't rememeber the rest, but there were definitely Gucci, Burberry's and probably higher ranges... Tag Heuer maybe? And there were many Thai brands that are very high end as well.. Don't remember the names liao la.. But all I cannot afford one la.. Hahaha.. Anyway, so this place was damn cool....
Anyway, we wanted to go there for a nice dinner, but it turned out to be shite.... It's a restaurant-like place I think.. It's like those in Wisma, several restaurants in a clutter.. Except that the one there was quite lousy.. Service was bad, food was slow AND not that great....
Look at how sad she is...
Anyway, inside this place, there were some cars on display.. Not just any cars.. There were Bentley, Ferrari, Lamborghini, and one other which I don't remember what liao....
Sleeeeeeek.. Wouldn't mind having one of these, even for just a day..... Dreeeeeeam.........
The next day (a.k.a the third day, Monday, 12 Dec), since I was quite dead from the previous two nights' shopping, I decided to stay in... So my Shopping Queen sister went out on her own to MBK and the shops in its periphery...
When she came back at about 2pm BKK Time, we left for the next shopping place.. It's called Sam Pheng.. Near Chinatown... This place is the highlight of our trip man..
Busy busy busy shops stretch across many many many streets...
This place sells all kinds of stuff, for kids, for women, for men (less), for aunties, for housewives, for retailers, for shoppers, for distributors, for everybody! Mostly for women/retailers selling women's stuff though.. Seriously, it's so obvious that women's money is so much easier to con! Women's accessories are all over this place... And going at disgustingly low prices... Earrings are 10 baht a pair! That's 40c! Goodness.... To think I've been buying $5 earrings all over Singapore.. And I keep thinking that $5 is super cheap... Sam Pheng sells stuff that are sold in Singapore, for way way WAY lower prices! And so we went crazy... One thing though.. Shopping here, no haggling of prices allowed.. Prices are fixed, very low but very fixed.. And everything goes at wholesale prices and wholesale amounts.. Meaning if I like one or two designs of earrings, Erjie and I would have to choose about 10 other designs to make it a dozen so they will sell us.. So expectedly, we bought a lot of earrings.. Erjie bought more than I did la.. I only bought about 20 pairs of earrings in the whole trip.. 18 for myself and a few for others, to be exact.. ONLY.. Hehe...
Shopping at Sam Pheng was killer.. And we ONLY went through one tiny stretch of the entire place.. But it was very shiok to shop there, because the shops are so close together that you would find yourself stopping to look and buy more than you are walking through the street... And it's very fun to keep hearing the sellers saying "Retail no sale, Wholesale Ply Oni" in their cute Thai accent... And the thing is both me and Erjie had adopted their accent and kept asking them for the "Wholesale Ply".. Hee..
And of course, after Sam Pheng closed for the day at 7pm SG Time, my shopper sister didnt have enough and so we went back to Patpong for the night...
Me in the midst of crazy shoppers
Okay, I know I look shocked here.. We were trying to be funny....
And the last day had us going back to the Two more important places of the trip.. Sam Pheng and the street shops near MBK.... Hehe.. Buying more more more stuff....
All in all, shopping in Bangkok is great, even though I was with a Killer Shopping Queen who refuses to leave wherever we were shopping despite the fact that I was having diarrhoea and my legs were in major pain most of the time.... Heh.. I was killed several times by the endless shopping... I really was.. Thankfully the pretty stuff revived me.......
@Home: Me and all of our Buys!!!
(Wow.. This post took me 4 hours... Because I was doing my aunt's stuff as well... It's now actually 9pm.... Heh..)

-*- Get to know Zee better
Your view on yourself:You are down-to-earth and people like you because you are so straightforward. You are an efficient problem solver because you will listen to both sides of an argument before making a decision that usually appeals to both parties.
The type of girlfriend/boyfriend you are looking for:
You are not looking merely for a girl/boyfriend - you are looking for your life partner. Perhaps you should be more open-minded about who you spend time with. The person you are looking for might hide their charm under their exterior.
Your readiness to commit to a relationship:
You are ready to commit as soon as you meet the right person. And you believe you will pretty much know as soon as you might that person.
The seriousness of your love:
You have very sensible tactics when approaching the opposite sex. In many ways people find your straightforwardness attractive, so you will find yourself with plenty of dates.
Your views on education:
Education is very important in life. You want to study hard and learn as much as you can.
The right job for you:
You have many goals and want to achieve as much as you can. The jobs you enjoy are those that let you burn off your considerable excess energy.
How do you view success:
You are confident that you will be successful in your chosen career and nothing will stop you from trying.
What are you most afraid of:
You are afraid of having no one to rely on in times of trouble. You don't ever want to be unable to take care of yourself. Independence is important to you.
Who is your true self:
You are mature, reasonable, honest and give good advice. People ask for your comments on all sorts of different issues. Sometimes you might find yourself in a dilemma when trapped with a problem, which your heart rather than your head needs to solve.
Take the Get to Know Yourself Quiz here!
My Comments:
Well, I don't know how much of that is true.. Some stuff seems pretty accurate... Lemme see... The life partner thing is probably true? You know, in relationship(s), what I look for would be the possibility of seeing myself with the person in strong commitment... That kinda thing, I guess...
I like the part about successes in life.. I do like the idea that I'm confident of my success in future.. As to whether or not I am.. I guess I am confident that I can accomplish something in future.. As to what it is, I still can't decide.. So ya.. Hehe.. But ya, I probably would not let anything stop me from trying...
And the most accurate thing is the "afraid of having no one to rely on in times of trouble"... Seriously, I can be quite dependent sometimes. I need my friends, my family, and definitely my deardear with me when I'm down or unhappy... As much as the sentences contradict themselves, I think that could be pretty much the most accurate way to describe my "fear"? Not the most afraid, but do feel a little scared sometimes.. So ya...
All in all, fun quiz and moderately accurate results. ;)

Last day of EXAMS!!!! Whoooohooo! Feel so free... Heheh.. Although I was already enjoying myself for the past three days, today is the Official Day of End of Exams!!! Wheeeee... Yeah So Totally Liberated! Heee..First of all... Paper was quite fine, errrrrr, a few mistakes here and there, but in general WILL NOT FAIL.. Hehehe.. For that, I deserve a major break! And so a break I had!!!
Since don't know when, two friends and I have decided to KTV on the last day of Exams (since all three of us end on the same day...) SO KTV WE WENT! Hehehe.. After paper ended, which was super early because the paper was like super short (so most people ended by the end of the first hour), Jono had to run some errands, so Jojo and I went Munchie Monkey to stone for a bit.. Then we headed to Arts Canteen for me and Jono to stone and have "lunch" (I had my lunch already, so it was mainly Jono eating la.. I snacked.. Hehe..) while Jojo did her stuff...
At 5, it was Town Time! Hehehe.. Headed down to town for a little shopping before A WILD TIME at KBox... Heheh.. Jono was super lame, so he was imitating many different characters from the posters on the walls of Cineleisure....

One was too loud and one was too soft! GRRR... But oh well, Super Fun still.. Hahahah we were chased out of the place man! Hahaha I think we over-sang quite a bit!! Wahahah.. SHIIIIOK!
After KTV was a super long walk along Orchard Road.. Erm it's actually a very short distance, but man, We were so mad!! We were like SINGING while walking and a littttttle dancing! Waahah Just Prancing la.. Hehehe.. I think Jojo and I too high liao.. Jono had NO CHOICE but to join in! Wahahah.. After a lame walk along Orchard, we decided that there's nothing exciting in town to eat.. So off to River Valley for prata we went!!
