Because of last minute arrange this trip, I am not able to secure cheaper flight seat from Air Asia. So I have choose MAS because the price is almost same. And so I fly alone from KLIA instead of joining my friends that fly from LCCT.

The cute Harrods Teddy Bear is still at KLIA. But this time no one take the camera for me. So I can't take the photo with this big teddy bear.

A tired traveler having a sleep at the couch. But with her face facing down, I taught it is corpse there. XD

The MAS airline meal is not much better. But since I am hungry I just finish it. Not much to comment except that with the box packaging, the manage to keep the fried rice with shrimp really hot when it is serve.

After going thru the hassle to travel from airport to hotel, I finally reach it. The hotel is really great as what I expect. XD

This is the corridor that connect my room to the hotel corridor. On the right is Dresser for me to keep clothes. And on the left is 2 full body mirror for me to check how I look before going out. Nice? This corridor will connect tot the bedroom first before going to the living room.

This is the kitchen. Have all basic need such as pan, small pot, microwave etc. But too bad I never use it except for cooking water. XD

This is the bathroom. No shower stand here. Just a JACUZZI that has enough space for 2 person. XD
Toilet, basin, hair dryer and other basic amenities is all available.

Jacuzzi. Everyday after a long walk or shopping in Bangkok, a hot water bath is refreshing. (^__^)

The King sized Bed. I need to roll 3 times from one side to reach other side. But this hotel a bit old, so the bed made some noise if when I am rolling on it. Also I feel the mattress a bit too hard. I guess I just miss my bed at Malaysia. I forget to take the photo but there is a 42" inch Samsung Plasma TV facing the bed. It is link to a DVD player too. So if you are here on holiday with your lover, you can play some nice love action movie on the TV and enjoy the big bed. XD

The living room with a great view of surrounding. Right now it is night. Not much to see outside.

A chic hotel Le Fenix Sukhumvit. This hotel is recommended by many Taiwan travel agency and travel magazine. Not sure how it is but sure look nice.

Q bar that is opposite Le Fenix Sukhumvit hotel. Most hotel near this area will have complimentary free entrance to this bar. But mostly traveler especially the European people visit this bar. The local thai prefer not to come here. There is another more chic club near this area call Bed & Supper. I plan to visit and take photo later but in the end of my stay in Bangkok, I did not find time to visit it. orz
Wasted my complimentary free entrance.

This hotel look really good. Not bad for my next stay in Bangkok trip. (^__^)

Dosa King. Dosa means sin in malay language. So this place means King Of Sin. XD

My first dinner in Bangkok. McDonald BBQ Pork Rib Burger. (^___^)

I have decide to go Bangkok last week Monday. Booked the hotel and airplane ticket on Tuesday, settle my Malaysia things on Wednesday.
And then start to do homework on Bangkok trip from other people experience.

First of all is the transport in Bangkok. Bangkok road traffic can be a real headache to everyone due to the traffic jam. To avoid getting stuck on the road, the best transport method in Bangkok is BTS.

Below is the map for the BTS, MRT  and the Airport Train route. Suggest you print a copy and keep in your wallet. for easy reference.

Take note on the green line. That is the most important train route in Bangkok. Most of the place of attraction such as Central World, Siam Paragon, Erawan Shrine(四面佛) is near this route. So for choice of hotel, try choose hotel that is near any of the BTS station in this route is a first choice. Unless you have other priority in Bangkok such as business trip, then you can consider a hotel nearer to the company.

Next is to get out from Airport. If you did book the hotel near the BTS, you can consider getting the Express Train from Airport to BTS Praya Thai station(Ticket price is 90 Bahts). Otherwise most hotel have pick up service for their guest. You can arrange for the pickup during booking. (**NOTE** : Booking from the hotel main website normally will show this option. But if you book from website such as Agoda.com, this option is not available.)

Another important tricks in Bangkok traveling is, always do not trust the taxi or tut tut driver that approach and offer to take you to your destination. These driver normally charge 2 times to 3 times of normal meter charge. Always stop the taxi that is on the main road, and ask them to use the meter. If the refuse, do not hesitate to get out and get another taxi. There is never short of taxi in Bangkok, unless you live in a very secluded alley or more outskirt of Bangkok.

The next thing is communication. Since international roaming call is expensive, getting the local mobile package is a good idea. Depend on which mobile service you prefer but major mobile service is available in airport. I have choose DTAC Happy Package. Cost 89 Bahts but have 35 Bahts preloaded for call.

Sanitation in Thai is not the best. Especially with the hawker stall at the road side. Just a careful view of the area or how they prepare the food, you can guess it. If previously you have bad problem with bad hygiene food before, do not try to take it. 7-Eleven is the best place to solve most of your light meal or supper. Most hotel will have a 7-Eleven within walking distance. For good meal you can go for the hotel restaurant. However if you have no problem then you can enjoy the best Thai food. The best Thai food is street food. From the Thai fried rice(Pad Thai), Mango Sticky Rice, the BBQ hotdog, BBQ chicken, pork etc.

Moody Friday.......

My mood is quite bad now...
Coz I am damn sick.
Sore throat to the point that I do not wish to talk anymore.
Even just drink water also will feel pain.
I guess it will be another boring weekend, where I just stay in house to sleep.
orz

Also a friend of mine who happen to be in same company with my ex-gf told me a surprising news.
My ex-gf hate me. When chat about me, she is very fury. I taught we break up peacefully, and that I manage to reduce damage to her to the minimum.
I guess in any love relation, to be friend again after breakup is impossible.

Also my friend say I always dine in at extravagant place. But for me, it is just once in a while. Maybe one month once.
Still too much?
Demotivate me to blog about my recent restaurant visit.

The only good thing that make me smile recently is I heard 3 very nice song. All is movie theme song. Hope I can find someone to watch the movie with me.
But if no one interested, maybe I just go alone.....

Olivia - 海枯石爛 from movie One Day. ( This song is the Chinese Theme song. The original movie theme song is not sure)







胡夏 - 那些年 from movie 那些年，我們一起追的女孩 (Apple of my eyes)







JJ Lin 林俊傑 - Love you you from movie 夏日樂悠悠

Merdeka and Hari Raya Holiday.

Well it is not a holiday for me. I always work on public holiday.
But as it is Public Holiday, the work is just not there for me to do.
Thus here I am sitting at my place, doing nothing but blogging, facebooking, watching movie.

I watch 500 days of Summer. And suddenly feel the similarities between Summer and my "kai mui". Haiz...

Oh well, I need to get over it.

My life in a week time. That make me feel moody....

Justice lies in the hand of people that survive....

I intended to blog on a very lavish dinner that I have last weekend, but instead my mood got deeply affected by a series of event over the past weekend that leave me very tired and in need for a holiday break. Or just someone that really care for me to be beside me.

To begin, Monday the new management and people in my office continue to irritate me with their fake behavior and false laugh. Why we can't be a bit more real and need to be so fake?

Tuesday, my car break down with a flat tyre. Hunger for food and the trouble in replacing the flat tyre with with a spare cause me to only reach home at 11.30pm.

Wednesday, begins a series of event on my online game Castle Age. One that I really hate. The developer of the game created a new thing in the game that is not working right from the begining. After some players decide to make use of a flaw in their game design to legally let other player get the new thing, the CA developer suddenly announce all those people who use the flaw is cheater and is therefore will be tracked, punished accordingly.

Also a Logitech mouse that I receive as birthday gift from my colleague start to give me problem. The left button click start to not working as responsive as it use to be. Sometimes doing a double click, when I just click it once. Time to buy a new mouse? If really there is no $$$ problem, I will just change the whole PC.

Thursday, I get more disappointed with what some of the idiot player that is playing the game and fall for the stupid excuse of CA developer. For me, I feel the game itself is not fair to begin with and is never design to be a fair game for everyone. It is design to let anyone that pay the CA developer more money to have a big advantage over other who intend not to do it. And now when the player who did not do it, use the game design flaw, to achieve similar or greater advantage, these player start to whine. And instead of blaming the game developer for failing to design a better game, they turn and call these player as cheater/loser. So they feel their act of paying money for the game is not an act of cheating and loser who just want to win in the game?

This scenario become like a scene of justice only belong to people that survive and can talk about it. Because the cheater who maybe is honest player is banned in the game to defense their action.

Anyway, I decided a very simple solution to this matter. I will just quit the game and move on. Coz this is not the only game I feel face with the problem. Anyone who pay to play is just throwing the money in to the sea. It maybe better for them to just use it on other entertainment such as a movie.

To make my day more worse, my pair of Nike sneaker start to smile at both side. I am left without a choice but to buy a new pair urgently. And there goes my RM350

Friday(today), my Faye Wong concert plan seems to come to a full halt. Without anyone to accompany me for it. I wonder why from all the friends that I know, none seems to willing go with me. Sad sad....

I suddenly feel want to just fly to some place and relax. Take a break.
And more important, I feel I need a person beside me that will go thru the laugh and tears with me. The only person that is closest is the person that share the laugh, share the nice meal with me. But never interested to share the problem and tears of mine. For all the words you spoke, your action really disappointed me and also what make me to decide leave and not turning back....

Sharing with all my friends, a song that I love to hear recently....
That Man - Hyun Bin, From Korean Drama "Secret Garden"

Time........

I recently find some new meaning to time.
We always say time heal wounds. Time test a lot of thing.

I find that time do not heal wounds, rather it help to minimize the wound by uncovering truth as time goes by. And time test even the most perfect lie.

Example, your ex maybe blaming you that the difference in opinion, difference in personality the reason that he want to break up. But as time goes by, this truth, this lie will be uncovered and from the pain of break up, you will know it is him that is the bad guy and do not worth your love....

There is more then one time I read, the person who can survive will be the winner and the justice. I feel it is true now. The person who continue to live, will have most time to uncover truth, to learn more of basic things in this world. Such as me, I learn more about time.

Drama addict...

Yes I am drama addict. Here is a short list of drama and my review for it

1. Doctor Jin Part 1 & 2


Story - A Brain Specialist name Minakata Jin, who mysteriously time travel to the past, before Japan modernization(Edo Period). There he meet people that is important in history and slowly his action in the past have change the course of the future world that he live. Fear of the changes he made may cause disaster like the butterfly effect and unknown of way to go back to future, he continue to live in the past while searching for the way to go home and reason he is sent to the past.

My Review :- This is certainly one of the best Japan drama of recent times. Very serious production. Excellent story, soundtrack and cast. My only complain is one episode every week is a real pain and the over realistic surgery operation scene that at times can be too bloody. Certainly not for underage kid as even adult I feel this is too bloody. But then have to respect the professional production of this drama. For bringing the kind of realistic surgery scene.

2. Secret Garden



Story - Same type of 4 main character story. 2 guy and 2 gal. The main guy is handsome, rich, very capable in business. The main girl is cheerful, poor but very athletic.

My Review :- The story is really kind of lame to begin with. Too much similarities with other Korean drama, and thus I skip this drama at first. Until my colleague recommend it to me and ask me to watch it. Well after 2 episode, I am addicted to it, and laughing hysterically in office while watching it. Other colleague label me as insane that time. XD

So what makes this drama special? First is the comedy part that involve the complex relationship of the each character and the switch of body between the main guy and girl. Also due to the switch, they able to understand each other more and more attracted to each other. Second is the great music that go with the drama, "That Man" and "That Woman"

The bad side of this drama is also the script. When near the ending, the comedy part is slowly disappearing and suddenly it become like Titanic for the lover, where only one of them can live. So is it sad ending? Go watch yourself.

3. City Hunter



Story - The main actor, is smart MIT graduate that specialized in networking. Work in Blue Resident to protect the President house network. Hidden motive is to revenge for the death of his father comrade that is killed by the corrupted politician of South Korea.

My Review - This drama is definitely a MUST watch for all Lee Min Ho fans and Handsome Boy fans. The story in my view is really FAILED. But of course fans will argue with me on this. XD
1. They bought the right to shot this drama based on the story of a famous Japan Comic name, City Hunter. But the whole drama is almost not related to City Hunter. Even the XYZ is just mention once in the whole drama.
2. A son of a drug-lord, is innocent naive guy that try to protect the poor innocent people and try not to kill anyone. So he don't know the drug his "father" sell is killing and destroying people life? Very illogical if you ask me.
3. He is more of a Rambo. Always just rush into place without planning. So not surprising that he got into trouble numerous time.
4. The 2nd actress connection with the story is really weak. So purposely link her to the main character by saying she is the doctor that help the guy remove the bullet etc. Btw she is a veterinarian. So the Lee Min Ho is treated like a dog by her.
5. What the fuck and why need to so sudden say Lee Min Ho father is not as simple as it seems. Feel it is a very lame attempt by the script writer to create a climax during the ending. Really lame in my opinion and unnecessary at all.

Well although there is a lot of flaw for the script in my opinion. I still recommend Lee Min Ho fans to watch this drama. He is really cool and awesome in it.


These are the drama that I watch recently. Will continue to share if there is any that I find good to recommend.
