BANGKOK ROCKS!!
Hey people! i am back fm bangkok! what a kickass trip!! the trip was soooooooooooooo fun, i dint wana come back at all. it really did alot for my soul as i just relaxed and spent quality time with my family. i loved it. thats me and my sis on the first day in bkk! =)
this trip is kinda different fm my previous one cus all i did was shop thruout the 5days when i was there in july. but this time, as we went with a tour, we went to all the tourist attractions. it was so fun lah!
on the first day, we visited the chao phrya river n we got to see the ppl living by the sea & their way of lives. it was quite an eye opener. it makes me want to embark on a photojourn FYP on the thai ppl living by the sea and their way of lives. but nope, i already formed my FYP group n i LOVE my grp, and we are definitely not doing photojourn FYP. hahha. but well, the ppl there used their sampan boats to sell fruits and little souvenirs to earn their money and it was really encouraging to know how ppl are contented with their lives even though it is very simple. 
we also went to the tiger zoo and i got to carry a tiger cub!! it was kinda scary cus the tiger cub was very heavy, but it was hell of an experience man. :) i also hugged a baby orang utan who is soooooooooo adorable. i want him as my pet! =) we also saw the crocodile show n the tiger show. they were amazing. it was really scary seeing the trainers perform difficult tricks with the fierce animals. my heart skipped a beat when the crocodile trainer put his head into the crocodile. havent got the photos yet, they r with my sister who refuses to pass me the photos yet. damn it. the photos are really nice! will update in the next entry when i get the photos!
we went to see the elephants dance too, and they are such clever animals! they noe what steps to dance in accordance to the rhythm. they are such amazing animals! i really love the elephants, they are very cute. this is one of their performances. 
i can even imitate how they dance now. haha. its really hilarious. me n my younger sis kept imitating the elephants' dance for my family and got them rolling in laughters. =) i love my family man. this trip has brought us even closer together, and i am so happy. i am a happy gal!! heh.
on the 2nd day, we headed over to pattaya beach for all the sea sports! yoohoo! the beach there is just so beautiful. the water is so clear and there were so many sea sports at such cheap prices. we took the speed boat fm pattaya to the pattaya beach. the ride there was fun sia. very fast n bumpy. my mom's cap almost flew off. haha. look at my family's faces. so funny! hehe.
& this is our tour guide who is very nice! her name is Nina. kinda miss her n her gentle thaiaccent. 
it was so sunny at the beach! the weather was perfect, the water was clear, the things they sell were cheap, everything was great about pattaya (except the unexceptionally happening nightlife who made me a little scared haha). i hate rainy singapore. :( i dun wana be here, where it rains everyday. boohoo. yah, we took the speed boat to a dock where we did PARASAILING!! i have always wanted to do parasailing man. imagine just flying on a parachute and seeing the world below you. oh my god. it rocks!! it was quite scary at first but after a while it became very exciting! i really had fun doing parasailing n i wana do it again if i have the time! thats me fm afar. i know its small. hahah. 
thats my mommy n my sis. my mom dint do the parasailing though. she was kinda scared. haha.
and my siblings and my Dad! waiting for our turns at the parasailing thingy. it was a rather long queue. we were all kinda scared yet excited!! =)
after the parasailing, we headed for the beach where all of the girls fm my family did manicure n braided our hair. so cheap n so nice! thailand rocks lah!!
i also tried banana boat with my siblings n dad n then we jus swam for a while in the clear waters out at sea n then headed back to pattaya. it was such a fulfiling and wonderful 2nd day spent in thailand. that was actually one of my best days there. thailand rocks. i am going back to pattaya next july i guess, wana just stay there n enjoy all the water sports. and go parasailing again! actually, banana boat is more fun eh.. everyone shd try banana boat once in their life yah? its really fun!! =) more updates about my other days in bangkok in my next entry! love. =)
