MASSAGES. TOM YUMS. 7-ELEVENS. BIRKS. PART 1
for da 1st time in my life, i managed to shop till i drop.
bangkok is definitely da shopping paradise for all. visited da reknown chatuchak weekend mkt and mbk centre. hav to say tt mbk is not as gd as it seems, mainly due to its pricing and predictable items fer sale. chatuchak on da other hand, is 1 hellava shopping maze. managed to clinch some 10 odd tees fer myself, n an excessive no. of undersized birkenstoks. special mention goes to underated places such as pratunam and suan lum night mkt, wid da former selling at prices way lower den any places in bangkok. suan lum, tho, sells at outrageous prices, but if u noe da mkt price, bargaining shud get da vendors back on their grounds. say a 700baht wallet, u gotta try fer a 200baht-price tag. n even if u get it, chances are u can get da same wallet at 50baht at pratunam. da onli thing tt piss mi off at pratunam is their city complex, which has 80% of its shops selling gal stuff. dulan is da word.
managed to have quite a bit of massages dis time round. 2 foot and 1 full body, at a price of 200baht/hr and 400baht/2hrs respectively. hav to say tt its not as gd as da 1 i had at hadyai, n its much cheaper at 200baht/2hrs. but still, quite shiok. haha... n oh, had 1 of my foot massage by a ladyboy aka ah kuah aka bahbok aka tranny. scary.
used to dislike da idea of a ladyboy and will simply freak out at 1. but after i read an article during my stay, i believe i can gradually come to term wid da idea. as da article states, call them watever we wan, but they are still as human as we are. we can classify them as a 3rd sex, but da bottom line is they are still human. while thailand may be famed fer them, they are still very much shun by da public. thailand may juz be a safer place fer them to live in, tts all. but of cos, some may argue they are working against da work of god. personal perspective, once again.
so much to blog about. shall leave it fer da nxt post. but lyk to thank those hu have been praying fer my safe return. haha... n thank God.
now, back to reality.
amen.
