Umm...Burger

Being not so good at directions, I've tried to get at least a bus a day to somewhere. I decided to go to Vivo City, near Sentosa yesterday. By the time I got there, it was almost 2 pm. So first thing before anything else was trying to stop for a quick lunch somewhere. I needed just something light, perhaps a sandwich.

I walked around for 10 mins and couldn't find what I like. I walked pass a burger restaurant which I haven't heard of ( as there isn't one in Thailand) called Carl's Jr.

Nahh!...bad idea.

I perhaps have only 1-2 burgers a year. Everytime I walk pass any buger restaurant and look in there, it gives me depressing hints of unhealthy lifestyle. That's only me. Surely, I'm a bad customer of the burger nation.

Sadly enough, I walked pass it for maybe 20 steps and started thinking - "Ah...whatever, I just needed a quick bite then I can explore something else. I don't wanna waste of my time walking to find food right now.", then I turned around and entered to the Carl's Jr's little empire.

I looked up to the board menu and asked for the cheapest one they have, only to find that I soon would eat a BIG burger instead of what I hope it would be the smallest one.

OMG...it's huge! I opened the wrap and found a giant burger. What a great value I have! first bite wasn't bad, quite tasty - but this's gonna get messy soon - I thought.

Few minutes later after trying to munch my little monster, I saw its ad card on the table.
Haha...Brilliant!! Isn't that what I just said??!! What an advert!






Now Carl's Jr is gonna be my favorite burger of the year! (^o^)

08.08.08

Doesn't this number seem special to you?

Certainly to me. Not only I find that 8 is a very beautiful number - it's a lucky charm. Wealth and infinity. It's also my 5-month-anniversary with Jan. So I decided to make something special out of today. I have few lists (sometime I wonder if I can really rest and just have a lazy day).

Well, to start this blog again, this's for one.
After read reviews & comments from essays I contributed to Bangkok Blondes, I was inspired to try to write something more and properly as a book. Yes, that's right. I'll start to knock my skull for a story plot and perhaps write the first paragraph today. I already got some draft ideas. I want this work to be a present for Jan. How long will it take?....I don't know.

It'll be something - we shall see.

Welcome back!

....1 years and 8 months later.....

No, I didn't forget that I created this blog.

The purpose of writing it were changed. I decided to quit with no intention to ever return again. With my broken English written in a big blackhole via cyberspace? How silly! It was fun but wasting at the same time. Better to use my time to do something else.

But somehow I begin to miss writing my e-diary.

So...here we go. I'm back!

Another Buddha city

Tunnel of light

Great company

Jessica and I made a girltrip together. It was great and adventurous from the start. Took an overnight train from Bangkok to Nong Khai, there was a guy got stabbed on the train and collapsed nearby our seats. All went well at the end. Then, two snakes came under our table while sipping Beer Lao on the MaeKhong River’s bank. Umm...what was next? Local minor bike crash nearby the hotel... That was enough to make out the three before all the good things would start.

Beer Lao everywhere

Great local drink??

Thanks for the good company. Biking around the city and got lost, chilling in cafes and read for hours, teaching Jessica some Thai lessons for "he's eating white rice on a hill", prooving the locals that I'm not japanese (almost have to sing the Thai national anthem!), divining with a meditation session & local herbal sauna & Lao massage in the Forest Temple, etc...

If you go there, don't miss the banana shake and french baguette sandwich.

Vientiane memories

Had a chance to to visit Vientiane last weekend. Interesting small city. Can't believe it's the largest city of Laos and is the capital.

Got to Nong Khai too early, waiting to across the border

Local area, local people

Ladykillers

Angel Baby # 1:

Had a chance to visit friends in Singapore. I was hooked up by two little lady killers. Especially this one. 7-month-old Anton. He's so cute and adorable. He's fascinated by mirror!

Look so alike his dad, apart from the hair which was so so much lighter (almost none!).

Pictured at Whitebait & Kale Restaurant, Sunday brunch.

Angel Baby #2:

I was having (veggie) dinner with Krish (almost same age who has almost too much hair) while his dad, tried to show us how to control a helicopter. Whose toy is this??

So cool

The Golden Land...Suvarnabhumi

Finally, I made my way to visit our brand new airport. It's so cool and impressive. and it is huge too!

Shiny metal & glass

The bluelight, reflections of the future


Hope nobody gets lost here. I will though...

Did you know? It has the tallest controlling tower in the world.

Donmuang Airport

My last shot last Sunday of Donmuang Airport, after its long services. Now the new Suvarnabhumi airport is taking place. Heard of the hectic opened day? 28 Sep. Luggages lost, upset & hungry passagers....
