My Life

Our breakfast in the morning. Though the food doesn't look very appetising, they were delicious. 

A random shot when mum was doing her shopping. 

We passed by this huge shopping mall in order to get to Siam.

Our pace were very slow, just like the life of tourist (which we are) in Thailand. We walked, took some photos, and eat along the way. My mum was very happy haha. Look at her!

Yea!

Our plan for the day was very simple. We were supposed to go to Town area to walk about. And my aim was to get to naraya to buy a pouch for my colleague. Getting a pouch was simple as i had just need to get one. Other people were screaming and looking around for their best designs in naraya. I could understand as i had once wholesales naraya last year. Though i did not particularly liked their design, I had bought some as gifts. But currently, i am using the naraya bag which i bought last year. Overtime, i felt that their quality was really good. Their workman ship was good as i do not bet any threads fall-out even after a year. Also, it was easy to wash and maintain. And best of all, you can go it with any outfit! 

Alright, enough of my naraya.

Next, we moved on to the train station and cut through the control station. My mum and dad wanted to go to  the 四面佛 to pray. And so, we went to pray before going walking about again. There again, we walked and take photos, walked and take photos. Life is just so puurrfect!

After walking for a whole day, we came to the bridge, which linked us to MBK. This is MBK:

See my mum poses for this.

I was excited because it reminds me of the manicure at the bridge! :D But before we went to that, we had to shop for phone casing. Iphone 4, 5, note 2, S2, whatever you can name it! This time round, i bought 2 iphone 5 casing, some casing for my colleagues, 1 S2 casing and 1 ipad casing for my sis. All the casing! However, my sis told me that i was scammed as the ipad cover was faulty. For my mum, she was also happily shopping for her note 2 casing. As her's was a new phone, she had hard time finding cheap casing in Singapore. 

When she went there, she was speechless. 

She grumbled to me that her $50 casing cost only 300 baht is Thailand. 300 baht is as good as $12.40 in Singapore. At that moment, she bought 2. She was still happy with her buys though haha. For dad, i guess he wanted to walk around and see. He did not buy anything this year.

And me? I rushed to the bridge to do my manicure after buying my stuffs. But halfway, Xiong stopped me and pointed a lady at me. 

He: Isn't this guy was the one who drew your nails last year.

Me: Oh ya hor! I remember his face. Oh?! His hair had grew so long already!

He: He might have job hopped long ago.

I walk towards this salon and started asking for prices. He said "okay" and so i sat down. 

See the "lady" in yellow? She is a great manicurist.

 At dinner time, we met ah ling at MBK. She brought us to dinner at :

My biao jie~~

The food are affordable. This restaurant is located at a deserted place near National Stadium BTS. 

There are many different branches but i guessed we went to this branch. The foods are really very delicious! Thailand foods are like this. They doesn't look very presentable on the table but when u tasted them, the flavours were like bursting around in your mouth and make you wanna have more of it. 

We walked out of the restaurant, carrying our stomachs. We were too full to even walk about haha. After eating, we took a cab and went back to our hotel. Getting all set for the next 2 days shopping activities!! 

    

  

   

See all of us were so wide awake haha. My dad and bii managed to slept throught the journey but i couldn't, I remain as how i was the moment i sat on the seat. After 2.5 hours of agony on plane, we had finally arrive Suvarnabhumi Airport. As BKK was an hour later than Singapore, i felt that i have an hour extra to do more things. To get to our hotel, we took the Airport Rail link to Rajchaprarop Station.

Here is our Hotel address:

122/44 Rajchaprarop Road,
Khweng Thanon-Phayathai,
Khet Rajchathewi, Bangkok 10400

It was a pretty nice and cosy place.

Our purple room!

My parents' room

See! The room is pretty bright and nice! Each room has a bench but it was not-utilised haha. After settling down, we headed to Chinatown. I wanted to go to the legendary Sampeng Lane where it sells lots of acessories such as necklace, earrings and hair accessories. Not only that, they sell shoes, hardware and textiles. My dad loves this place a lot somehow. 

Cars are everywhere and even in small squeezy lane, you will still see motors coming in and out of every corner. I did not spend much this day was i was hoping to spend my money for the next 3 days. We explored and walked for a distance before going down to Hua Lamphong railway station. In the evening, we took the BTS from Hua Lamphong to Saphan Taksin and a boat to Asiatique. By the time we reached Asiatique, it was already 5.30pm. The place had just opened...

The boat. It will arrive every 15 minutes. Don't forget to go the furthest one, this is for free!

Asiatique!

 

I have currently three mascara in my kit and they are:

I have been good, diligently using my mascara to work almost everyday. Right now, these 3 mascara are my best companion for my less-defined eyes. For asain, all girls will want fuller lashes, volume and long kind of lashes but because we are asians, we are not blessed with that. And so.. we often cheat with fake lashes. Like my sister, she is a mono-lids with short lashes (luckily i am not but i wasn't any better), she wants to use a mascara which tell people that : I have lashes alright?! And so she told me to buy one for her when i was at watson private sales. I ended up buying her a mascara (purple tube with feathery-light effect , meaning you won't feel heavy on your lashes) which provide XXL lashes, for lengthening. Right now, its working fine on her and she likes it.

Well, i use this to work almost everyday for the 3-in one. People who are lazy like me who wakes up at 8am for 9am work, we often go for this for a quick, time saving mascara. I bought it at the airport in taiwan and i never regret paying SGD99 for 3 tubes.

Loreal: Ultra volume with collagene.

This was bought from Ceyi when she was at some sales. As it states, it is a volumised mascara which give your fuller lashes. Its is not very very waterproof as it smudges at the end of the day. But if you are just going out for a short while, it is worth using esp it is affordable. Not too bad i must say, but not one which you will go for a second time.

Cyber colours Ex-volume

I bought this stick in Taiwan, recommended by the sales personnel. It is not cheap.. in my opinion, but it is really a great mascara.  Another three in one : lengthens, volumise and makes curl stays. According to the SA, she said that a lot of hong kongers are using this and it is always out of stock. And so believeing what she say, i decided to buy one and try. Surprisingly, it is really good . The mascara promised whatever it delivers. It doesn't smudge at all. But one bad thing is that, it can be quite difficult to wash off as it is too waterproof. 

I am tempted to get the maybelline false lashies but i have some bad experience with their mascara. I am not so sure if  i should get.. I didn't want to waste my money again on bad mascara. 

Just my 2 cents worth

And my crayon-type liner:

They smudge so easily that my eyes turn panda at the end of the day. They do not last for even an hours if you have very oily eye-lids. Not only that, after 4 hours, they were almost gone and you won't see them staying on at all. But they are the most easiest to draw and even if you do not draw your line well, you can always smudge it (on purpose) haha. 

The rest of my eye liner:

Not exotic colours 

Sometime i wear brown to work (If anyone really notice haha). All these three colours are from Sephora. They cost less that $15 for each and very easy to glide on. I don't use white of course, except for highlighting brow bone and my waterline (really, if anyone ever notice) -.-
