as many of u would have known by now, i fell sick during my bangkok trip. was already not feeling right on the flight there but i couldnt pinpoint what was wrong with me. it turned out that i was running a fever. i always cannot feel the increase in body heat until my temperature is over 38 degrees, which is not really a good thing. as it is, i survived on 8 panadols a day (which is the max). didnt really buy a lot of things for myself as i was not in the mood. however still did a lot of shopping for friends and i ended up buying more things for them than for myself. chatuchak weekend market is a must go and i personally would recommend going to khao san street also. its a backpacker's haven with all the inns and hostels, the night bazaar and the brightly lit drinks push carts that is so popular there. the alcohol there is really cheap with a cocktail costing like S$2.50. if i werent sick i would have sat down and drink with the other backpackers. i experienced acute ear pain due to barotrauma on the flight back. i was having a flu and my eustachian tubes (in the ear) were blocked and i couldnt equalise the pressure. i was so scared that my ear drums would burst there and then and i couldnt hear for the rest of my life. luckily it wasnt so bad but i still couldnt hear properly till the next morning. even though i was sick i still enjoyed the whole trip to bangkok. the cost of living there is so cheap and the people so nice and friendly. i practically ate like a king there while spending so little. the shopping was good too though most of the things i bought were for others.
at changi airport before setting off =)
one of the balcony of the backpacker's inn (suk 11) i stayed at. the place costs less than S$10 per night and the decor was very cozy with airconditioned rooms and breakfast. it was also very accessible. highly recommended!
early in the day at chatuchak market with some "conquers" already ;)
royal thai food buffet. it cost less than S$8 but the food was good :)
the pushcart i was talking abt that sells alcohol and cocktail. the pic is not very clear here but u get the idea.
had a wonderful weekend and public holiday. coz all 3 days were spent at the beach playing beach volleyball ;P . esp played my heart out on national day. sabrina was there with her frens too, wearing....haha u all figure it all urself. my face is getting too dark for my own good...looked so ugly now.
1st test of the semester today. fell asleep again while trying to study for it yesterday night. skipped lectures this morning to study in the library. sabrina commented i slept for sometime while trying to study. sighs. even though i slept so early last night i still fell asleep again in the morning. anyway stayed back till late in school and managed to see the results of the test hee shen put up on the noticeboard. got a b. was quite satisfied with my result but it was because the test was easy.
going to skip class again tmr, meaning i have to miss the statistics mock test. been skipping a lot of lessons coz of the bangkok trip and my recent ill health. promised myself this is going to be the last one as i had already promised to work for starhub over these coming 3 days.
alrite going to watch the results for project superstar...
