Bangkok 2009








We hate to admit that the mask somehow makes us suffocating after wearing it for awhile.
What to do, Moy insists that we should always consider 'Protection First.'





While camwhoring,
Moy keeps emphasizing, ' no need to smile ladies, cannot see your face OK'





Three KL invaders arrived at the loo in bangkok airport.




It was already 6pm BKK time.






What a room!







We, overexcited for our deluxe size of bed!





Three ladies in a room, how we miss that atmosphere.
Powder, eyeliner, perfume, slippers, all we scream for before stepping out the door.






Morning mist, not in bkk, but in my camera.




What do we do the most in the city?

Walk on the street...



Walk to the mall....



Walk to the market...




and letting the sore feet cry themselves to find a place with cheap beer, and Cheers.





We hate bangkok JAM!





When hungry,
we would just eat anything at any stores/street stores we could find nearby.




We love tom yum kung, and the girls prefer the clear soup type.



And i love this particularly, Siew Yuk!



Noodle at Doo Dee Shop,Siam

This noodle has given us a great surprise, the soup is very good for appetite.
Sweet + Sour + Spicy = very Sexy taste!

Too bad the portion is too small!




Egg muffin, Mennon Store, by the street in Siam

Freshly out from the oven, it's a superb dessert!
Soft and puffy!



I call this a flinstone's pot.

It's too dark to eat at the valley,so we cant see whats inside the pot,
and we have no idea how to eat. The pot serves with 2 plate of raw veggies,
so we presume we shud be eating the normal steamboat way,
so Rach dumps everything into the pot, yet the pot is too small to fit.
Then only we realise the veggie should go in bit by bit together with the glass noodle,
and not one big chunk of veggies!

Its so so so HOT eating by the street, but the beef soup is good!




Aww..
the blended lemongrass with honey is certainly a cool drink to sip on a boiling weather in BKK.




But rach still loves the Thai Vitagen the best!


Its time to do some shopping..




Colorful bangles..

A colour each for souvenir?





or A bottle of....Umbrella?




The leather goods are pretty creative for a souvenir, too.




Mmmm...Steffy is in love with the multi-coloured straps!
But she din buy in the end, it's too fragile to wear:(




A pair of Froggies for you??




or consider me?
oops.. i mean the reddish 'lam ah chan' style of glasses :P




Steffy's dissapointed face is telling us she can't find anything she loves from the market.
So moy suggests 'lets keep looking.'




Rainy day on Chaktuchak rather gets us down.



Heading to Swensen for a love bite!




A little gift and a special venue for a birthday lady.




What's your flavour?
Ice creams are ecstacy!



The guy with the 'Star Ring' in his hand is good, his one-man show put a very big smile on everyone's face! Especially the birthday girl,
she still remembers him from the last trip we did last year.

Haha, how i miss his blushing cheek when i told him, 'eh, my fren likes you,and she remembers you from the last trip!'




Happy Birthday woman, one more year with Grace!



Besides shopping and eating, there is one bigger mission to achieve, that is to do the prayer.








Flowers are seen everywhere in Bangkok, especially near the temple or anywhere you can find the buddha statues.




We are given a few insense sticks and 2 candles, and told they're for the prayers of love buddha. Since it's given for free, why hesitate more?




This is where you should do your prayers for love and relationship:)




If you are a strong believer in the four-faced buddha, please do not miss this in Erawan.




Look at the tiny shoes!
Where are these little owners?





There we see the owners of the tiny shoes in the temple, saying prayer for the ceremony!


After all the 'noble' purposes of the trip are done,
one essential event is never to be missed!

Thai Massage!





We find this place in a mall,
it's rather a clean and comfy space.

The price is cheap, it costs only 270 baht per hour for a foot massage.





However, i just can't stand the way they clean my feet before proceeding to the massage!
A few alcohol sheets to wipe off the dirt of your feet that been walking for like...errr a hundred mile? not even washing with water and start applying lotion to it?
Ohhhh noo....can i wash my feet first in the loo before we start?






Btw,
This is what we do on a 5 days 4 night trip.

Nothing expensive, everything is just simple and spontaneous,
and its truly a joyful trip with the ever best companions.













We finally made it happened, ladies!
The bond never ends!




The night at bangkok is really mesmerizing,






but not without YOU!

Happy birthday, Moy




Jarrod & Rawlins





A special friend of mine ordered a bottle of wine for the birthday girl,
but he does not even know her.

Your mischievious arrangement for the night has given us a surprise.
On behalf of the birthday girl, i'd like to say 'Thank you:)'
Also, the birthday girl likes the thought of it.








The birthday girl loves all the collection of Thomas Sabo.
Since we cant seem to grant her wish, here we are with a little thought.
Hope you like the idea, sis.
Yes, i know its lame...haha the real one will come soon alrite*













We always love you, Moy.
Happy Birthday 09.


Ps: Hopefully we will have a great one in BKK!Don't fall sick or i will kill you on your birthday!

What's the world's greatest lie?




"It's this: that at a certain point in our lives,

we lose control of what's happening to us,
and our lives become controlled by fate.
That's the world's greatest lie."

虽败犹荣

最近得了个机会参与了电视台招聘的主持人面试活动。当接到通知说已被shortlisted可以出席此活动的时候,心情像嗑了药,突然变得好兴奋,只欠没在寿司店里跳起来!

结果在星期六的那个早上,就兴致勃勃出发了。找了整个小时,都找不到电视台,唉,还说住kl,好差哦!

×有点惭愧

最后找到了,却迟了一个小时。一推门进去时,只见穿黑西装的人头有好几个,其中有一位笑的很有风度的迎面而来,
‘你就是Jean吗?你好,这是你的稿,你先去化妆吧!’
eh, 当时我在想工作人员该不会穿得这样正统吧?
原来,他也是来应征的,难怪说话时的口音非常特别,像是听到广播员在报告新闻一样;eh,这样一听,立刻留意自己的口腔一下,唉哟,更加‘怕势’,才发现自己的华语听起来好像pasar一样,啦啦沙沙!不管了,此时此刻已无补于事,算了,读读稿吧。

oh no...原来是一个时事节目,一份稿足足有5-6页,每一页都满满的字。就趁造型师用他超大力的吹风筒往我头发一吹的时候,我很勇敢的把每一个字给大大声读出来,然后还把拼音啦,翘舌音啦给咬的紧紧的;就是趁风筒够吵,所以念的时候没有闲情理会他人眼光;谁知当风筒一停,我突然来不及收回声音,眼角扫扫角落,有位女应征者掩口偷笑,唉,的确有点‘愚’,可是算了,我唯有若无其事的走去走廊。

原来这次的casting不像一般的节目通常让参赛者独自上阵;而这次却要以分组进习,每一组四个人。对着我组里的三位仁兄可不是闹着玩的,除了一身’君子骨骨‘的装扮,还能操一口非一般流利畅顺的华语,说话时我一度以为他们在播道新闻,怎么听起来好像就已经有在看电视的感觉,好厉害噢!
oh no,我突然觉得好想上语文班:(

还有还有,对着镜头从容不迫不在话,稿词说的自然生动,且无需对稿,加上一副’我就要你看我‘的专业表情,实在很有水准;不知是录音室里的空调温度还是心里的胆小恐惧症发作,坐在主持座上的我,已经脚软的楞在一旁。接下来到本小姐了,耳朵架上耳机的那霎那,我突然觉得原来主持人有三把耳朵。除了要听自己,听嘉宾,还有要听导播。全无经验的我真的很’怕势‘的说,耳朵不习惯handle三把声音,结果自己内心的那把杂音把自己打败了。除了面对镜头有少许从容之外,呃...其他的都fail...

一个casting就足以把自己打得落花流水。还未与别人角逐,已经输了一大半。其实自己知自己事,我想我还是真的还未到班,除了说自己差劲以为,我想不到别的形容词,唉,好失败哦!可是话说回来,本小姐还是要振作的,虽然这次输的彻底,可是还有少许虽败犹荣的感觉;安慰自己的啦,想想其实并没有怎样啦,能够得到机会参与此活动真的赚到了。除了能够见识到多位高手的专业表现,也能从中看到自己的渺小与缺陷,这两点已经足够了。

现在我知道了,为什么行中人都说这条路难走。若你真的喜欢,就不要停下来;不停下来不是说什么都不做,等待着每次机会因为没准备而溜走,而是要不停不停的练习,除了要能言善道之余,还有多阅读,多写稿,多对着镜子说话。不要小看这些小动作,因为每一项都是致胜的关键。

看着我像泄了气的皮球似的坐在沙发,
爸爸说‘现在知道世界很大,自己很小了哦,还是放弃吧!’

眼睛盯紧报纸,自己偷笑却不答一句。
喝,想起来那几位仁兄在当我在背稿时,身边走过对我瞄了一下,那对我不屑一看的眼神,终于让我明白原来背后为自己兴趣不断付出与坚持的人,才可以驾这种气势的。
现在除了佩服,还是佩服。


呵呵...
别我问现在有什么plan,我需要一点时间‘备势’...
:P

Saving Face




Recently just watched this highly recommended movie introduced by Lionel on the other day i saw her on MSN. I chuckled for abit when she asked me to search for the title 'Saving Face' on youtube. The title sounds a little unreal yet funny..and for one sec i thought the movie could be a Singaporean one. lol* Well, i was so anticipating to watch the movie as i was told by Lionel,

'i think u'll love the movie, though its about two chinese-american lesbians... '

Ahh,interesting!


Its not just about the two lesbians,of course, the story is so entertaining and inspiring especially to all chinese from all places!Though watching it on youtube in 13 screens is not so perfect, but overall the movie is good.




The story starts with a girl named Wilhemia, who is a surgeon that lives with her mother and grandparents in the states. Her mother always concerns for her daughter who still a single, and often trying to match her with her friend's son. But Wil is a gay and she is in love with a dancer girlfriend-Vivien. On the other hand, Wil's mother comes home one day with her unwed pregnancy, that shocks the whole family. For Wil's grandpa is a reputable man in the chinese circle of friends, he cant accept the fact that his daughter got pregnant with an unknown man.

Well,i would say the movie does reflect a very real scene of the generation gap in the chinese though they have been living more than a decade in the states. And its funny to see how typical chinese hold onto the very typical value of 'think before you act, and make sure you don't lose face of the family'.Ahh... im sure this is one of the issues faced by most chinese. I personally love the plot very much. For Wil's scenario, though she is all born and bred in the states, she can't seem to escape from the chinese traditions.


Hey peeps, if you have nothing to do at home, do watch this over the weekend.
It will give you a good laugh:D

Have a Good Saturday!

Sinful Palette






i knew it. i just knew it!

i just know everytime when i meet Mark, he will give me a pressie. Aww...though during this visit back to KL was for a sad purpose,it was still great meeting him and his wife again. But yet, this palette is gonna kill me for some reasons. I have tried to not look at it, touch it, or even think about it. Awww...it's too tempting! and there goes the never ending story of my forehead ACNE.

Sheet!





The day when i received the palatte, i just dumped the box into the fridge so i will not be tempted. Mmm...but then since mom was asking if its edible else she will throw it away. Haha so i quickly opened the box for sharing. When i unwrapped the palette, i was like 'whoa...so the nice' ..., and i told myself,' look only and don't touch', sheet* i can't..i just cant resist. so i picked only ONE, yes the ONE in pink. Double sheet* first bite was amazing!! The cherry in the chocolate just melted like that, and the aroma of sweet alcohol liquid filled all over my mouth...Ohh...it feels so sinful...


Now my acne on my forehead has made a BIG comeback, with more members.
Aw...Kill me!
