below is my brief description of the thai trip...
Day 1 -met cy and mike at je mrt station to take train to airport. reached terminal 1 and met up with the rest. ate mac then went in the gate liao. after the flight take off for an hour or so, my ear start stinging cos the air pressure too huge. soojun also felt the same impact. lucky huiyi told us to blow the air out then i'll be able to survive. anyway, arrived at bk & felt a little excited. board a mini bus to asia hotel. it was ard 7 in the evening so the traffic is jam. during the jam, watched vcd on vin's hp and on the dvd player tt mike brought. check in hotel and ate at a nearby small restaurant. expected thai seafood. however im having a wound so cannot eat much. bought drinks and tidbits at 7-11. played cards at bryan's rm and went back. it was quite late le but still seng and sj dun wanna sleep so accompany them to take tuk tuk(a scooter-taxi) ard the area. we went for abt 40 mins and sj paid for it. but when we reached the lobby, she found out that her hp is lost. we dunno how but she must ve lost it on the tuk tuk so we asked every possible tuk tuk drivers and the staff to help us find. no sooner, huiyi n kane came to find us. we waited outside for the taxi to come back but no success. so went back to the room ard 2-3 am. cant sleep already so we played 'Heart Attack' to relax sj. after that they went lobby to eat while i slept. i set my alarm SG 6 am so in thai 5am i woke up le. by tat time, they came back too. when the others went back to their own rooms, mike, cy n bryan was woken by them. went down to eat breakfast ard 6.30 then wait for the rest to come down.
P.S. the time i put down is in bangkok time. SG time is 1 hr later
Day 2 -checked out of the hotel ard 8 am and board a coach to go pattaya beach. it's coach cos another group joining us. arrived at pattaya for lunch. went to the temple n soon after, board a boat which take us to the float market. de market is when the seller boat come near our boat and we buy.. that kind one... also fed fish with bread. went to another flee market to look ard. we went to buy mineral water buy it taste so wierd like toilet water. lolx. took de boat back to where de coach was.
i think after that we went to snake farm.. n watch the performance.. i dun really remember already haha.. please forgive me.. anyway, got lots of pills make from snake organs. din buy cos too epensive although there's this snake placenta that is very good for females one(male of cos cannot eat la)..
urm.. i think it's the all kinds of skin factory next. they use animal skin to make wallets. after that, tiger farm ba.. watched the tiger get tamed lo.. b4 that, they took photos with the cubs. it's already evening... din ve dinner n then went to watch ah gua show. vincent told me then i realised the 'girls' nv wear bras de.
went back to the hotel. sunbeam hotel is definitely lousier than asia hotel. no hair dryer de. check in n then went out again to roam ard. once out of the hotel, turn right n u can find a stretch of bars and clubs waiting. haha. walked to hardrock n huiyi bought a shirt there. same price la. not much diff. took a bigger taxi back to the hotel.
Day 3 -set off for the beach and water activities!! erm i will update more once i get my frens' photos n videos cos i currently forget where we went le... haha... but it's definitely fun!

the other photos r with vincent n his gf n the videos with cy but i can show u some taken by huiyi.. she din take the one at the beach so i will describe wat happen here.
the morning's here and after breakfast we walked to the beach. yes, our hotel is near there. while another took a bus there, we walked. haha. anyway, board the boat to a platform where the boats parachutes r waiting.. at first i dun want to play, but jaron played b4 n encourage me to play also. then the others also went ahead so i joined them for the extreme fun lo. the life jacket was heavy la. a little difficult to walk with that on. then the fun part came! the parachute hung me up high in the air n it turn 1 round the platform(the dock). at first i just "weee..." n then i enjoyed the scenery. the feeling is maybe when u play the rocket shooting at theme park but with water underneath u lo... and flying ard. the photo they took is so funny. haha. like im preparing for something big. lol. k la enough abt that cos there's more.
took the boat again to the beach. it was a bumpy ride of cos. i just had dizzy spells that's all. wah lao, after the whole thing, i can still feel myself shaking. haha. we had the first ride on the banana boat. the one where several ppl ride on it n then they capsized u.. thrilling.. maybe the first time im playing so it's quite fun.. the other members were soojun, jaron, weiseng n mike... i think the others had less capsizing than us.. we had 3. hehe. went back lo.. they were discussing whether to play jet ski anot. i tot jet ski is the pulling as u stand de so i din join. cos i had enough of falling into the water n get water up my nose liao. in the end i almost cry. jetski is the boat where u sit n maneuver urself where a instructor is behind u. i wanna played that! to think i missed that! cos after that they went for the pulling, the one i told u about. me bryan n kane went for a walk. they pat me in sand! again, the photos are with vin so next time then i show u ba. the girls had a piggy ride on the guys haha. not me i din go deeper into the sea. still can stand la but i just din go. end liao lo. went to wash the sand out of my hair.
yet another is to come. we headed to the island where the guns spot was. the guys fired either a rifle or a pistol. sj tried a pistol too. i noe this is in my wishlist but i just dun ve the guts. haha. anyway, the sound cracking was so loud it nearly burst our eardrums. n pics taken(with the rifle). headed back to the beach and went back hotel to bath.
