what i love about bangkok

#1 the colourful-ness of the place.

i'm sure everyone is aware of their famous pink taxis. But did you know their soldiers wear pink head gears ? heeeee :) let me show you the colourful head gears their soldiers wore !

bright pink !

blueee !

and other shades of black and grey.

We reached Bangkok on Thursday and went sight seeing around the old town which includes the grand palace and a few temples. We were very fortunate as on that day, the soldiers and marines and police officers etc etc were rehearsing for the march past for their king's birthday on Sunday ! AND we even got to witness them firing live canons !!!

Those are REAL canons ! yin and i was standing around 3 feet away from the canons and when they fire them we can literally feel the force, so much so that we can feel our jeans stretched backwards. don't get it ? its just like when somebody pull your jeans from the back just that there's nobody there and your jeans stretch by itself. i hope i didn't make it more complicated. haahaha

#2 their awesome 7-11 !

you can see 7-11 everywhere ! there's always 1 outlet in front of every bus stop and every 1 km there will be 1 outlet.


What's special about the 7-11 there is that they sell a wide variety of instant lunch boxes. They have rice, noodles, spaghetti etc. They provide microwave ovens there and the staff will help you heat up your food !


bought breakfast from 7-11 on the 3rd day ! it tasted really really good !

when you spent over a certain amount in 7-11 they give you this very cute stickers with characters from doraemon on it! Each different character stand for different amount, i think each of this is 50 bath = rm5, so the next time you'll get discount when you show the stickers ! not like most systems here you need to collect 10 chops or 10 stickers then only got discounts.

#3 their streets are always clean !

I do not have illustration for this but their streets are really veryy clean. Even after a night market, you wont see any rubbish on the street, not even a single straw i tell you ! The people never simply throw rubbish and the stall owners bring brooms along and sweep before and after they do business. In fact i never saw anybody winding down the window to throw rubbish or spit in Bangkok.

#4 they queue up neatly at the sky train station

Yes, they line up in 2 straight neat lines and the most important point is the 2 lines won't *disappear* when the train arrive. They wait till EVERYONE get out of the train before going in. Absolutely NO pushing !

#5 you won't go hungry !


pad thai ! thai style char keoy theow

THE best fried chicken ! bought this from a street vendor.

noodles with mini yong tau fu, fish ball, fish cake etc

noodles with drumstick and chicken feet. they serve alot of chicken and only a small portion of noodles and this is their style of serving noodles, only small portion of noodles and huge portion of the side dish.

tom yum ! i had tom yum for every dinner in Bangkok and all the prawns served were huge and fresh !

HUGE PRAWNS !

glutinous rice with mango !

coconut flavour ice cream served with some peanuts and coconut flesh ! had this at the famous chatuchak market, and this is a must-try if you go to Bangkok ! that's how good it is :) i still ahve alot of pictures of food haaha these are the ones i tried and they all tasted really good !

the art of self hypnosis

*eyes closed*

*fingers crossed*

* breathe in deeeeeply*

May The Force Be With Me !


This, my dear friends, is THE diva of all facebooking divas.

You can't do much when people invade your room like this early in the morning but to just lie down and watch and get some of the positivee qi.

Tomorrow i'll need this similar kind of 'energy' to get through the day.

seriously, nonsense.

warm greetings from jasper !

You see i get requests to write something here from mostly people who are stressed out from studies. So this will be another post like lets go chase shadows, also = plain nonsense from my rusty brain.

*stares at the computer screen real hard*

Tonight i don't get any inspiration even after staring at the screen for 10 whole minutes. I'll just list out some random stuff that comes to mind.

1# my sister gave me a weird look when i picked her up at the LRT station yesterday afternoon. the first thing she told me when she got up the car was : ' jie, just now i couldn't recognise you'

2# i was hooked on to teenage dream for quite some time. today a friend told me his friend got into a car accident while he was high on the same song. Good thing the radio in the car i drive doesn't work.

3# i don't know how to say 'no,thankyou' in Cantonese when people try to promote drinks and stuff in Cantonese at the supermarket, so i'll lift up my palm and say 'thankyou' in Cantonese. the palm means 'no' and the 'thankyou' means well thankyou. come to think of it now, i think its funny.

4# i think i never say 'you're welcome' when people say thankyou. i'll say 'thankyou'.

5# i feel like googling an address in Greece and send a parcel over. i'll put someee instant packet bah kut teh in and someee kopi sweets.

6# i always write the blog title after the blog post. now i'm having a real hard time thinking what to write for the title. so please ignore the title.

C for Calvin, H for Hobbes !

ahhh so far october have need really nice to me ! happy things came together-gether !
got my uni offer letter wohooooo !
went sing k for 4 hours today with my fav person in the whole wide world !
after sing k session we drove to amcorp mall *finally* to get calvin and hobbes ! mad happy !


Anyway, i think i have to introduce Calvin and Hobbes. Sooo Calvin and Hobbes is a comic strip written by the amazing Bill Watterson. Calvin is this little mischievous six year old, with out-of -this-world imagination, smart little fella and gets into trouble all the time. I love him for he is so smart and at the same time cheeky! oh and his imagination goes to outer space all the time :) and by that i love Mr. Watterson too. Hobbes is Calvin's tiger friend/soft toy ! They play together, get into trouble together, sometimes they don't get along very well but in the end still best friends.

Yeaaa i'm never good at explaining stuff, so don't bother, just go read the comic strip okayy ! You can find them easily from the internet otherwise they are in The Star newspaper's comic session everyday ! Hahhh i'm still feeling veryyyy happy i got 3 books of them :)

lets go chase shadows !

If i'm still not on my bed this time of the day, i'm either hungry, finishing last minute work, trying very hard to save an A for a test or i had a long nap in the afternoon. Tonight, i feel like speeding on a highway in the middle lane and blast music in the car.

But a more practical thing to do instead of wasting petrol would be to practise writing ABC with my right hand and teman-ing my beloved adik study for her test andd greet each other with panda eyes on friday.

I'm getting really hungry noww i can't think of anything to blah about anymore.
Happy October everyone !

and i'm just curious
would you be my passenger on the highway, 150km/h with loud music ???

stir me up

Today i had a little conversation with a confused squirrel, basically asking that little fella to find his own way out of the house. I opened all sliding doors and every possible place for him to get out and he decided to bang on the glass door and hide in boxes, even jasper couldn't be bothered to chase him anymore. Poor little fella must be hungry and tired from all the hide and seek. Please leave i don't wanna pick up your poop no more. FYI squirrel eat fruits and their poop looks exactly like cat's poop and a little grassy.


for you to get your appetite back just in case you are disgusted by the poop talk.


My brain have not been supplied with stuff from textbooks now there's so much space to store rubbish and insignificant thoughts. Soon i'll need a dream interpreter to read my dreams, soon, when i can wake up and recall them.



yin just came back from the dentist, had scaling. i'm gonna make an appointment because she said it doesn't hurt and the dentist told her she had a special type of bacteria *black little stains* all over the back side of her teeth and she had been rare-ing them. She enjoyed it so much she said she wants to go see the dentist everyday. FYI it costs rm90

kimchi soup !

Went to KLIA last sunday to send off my bro. First time sending people off, not a good experience, came home with fluffy eyes. Another send off coming sunday, glad its just Nilai but still, its 1 hour away. After that i'll have to fuss on how many cup of rice to cook for dinner.

not sure whether you read my blog, here's a lengchai picture of you. Have fun, take care and please miss me thankiu.
