bangkok '12!

and so, as the title of the blog posts suggest...
bangkok '12!!
I'll always try to head to bangkok at least once a year.
I mean flight, shopping and food's so so so reasonable, so why not?

last year, we headed there and stayed for a week,
this year we stayed there for 6 days. i think it was cause we accidentally booked wrongly or something.
I know how some or rather, most of you usually just take like a 4, 5 day trip to bangkok.
I guess R and i just like to stay there a couple of days more so we can really take our time to walk about and shop and need not really rush to and fro?

people have been asking me to do up a blog entry on where i been to etc from the pictures they see on my instagram (instagram id: verniewernie) 
and so, here it is!
makes me so happy people are enjoying my pictures.
i was afraid i was spamming too much on instagram, tbh. :/

anyhows, pictures!!!

we had to wait for our hotel room to be ready. :/
we stayed at citin, location is really convenient and walkable to everywhere (MBS, siam, siam paragon, platinum etc)


Cath Kidston!
my favourite store!
 it's located at central world!




you just look at the items!
how to not go gaga over it you tell me?!



animal "mannequins"!

Oh God.
R and i hate this coconut pancake shit smelling thingy.
Ele loves it though.
But I swear every single day when we are at MBK, R and I would literally dash across the row of stalls selling them or avoid them altogether. 
yikes.

shopshopshopshopshop.

pad thai!

R's roasted pork thingamajig.

gross tom yum soup. please do not order from the stall...

which is this. some F-1 sharkfin store


YOU HAVE TO EAT THIS!!!
100 baht (SGD$4) but they give you a whole mango!
it's so so so gooood!


very unglam, i know. :(


i lovelovelove all of these MLP!!!
so darn adorable.
i bought 3 of them, and i dropped 1 of them on the very next day.
:(
tried going back to get another one but to no avail because those that were available were very badly stained.

the one i had was 25 baht? 
which makes up to a dollar sing!

1) don't know how to bring it all the way home
2) my bed is already filled with stuffed toys all around. :(
boo.

on the counter top, while waiting to pay!

R got me a fuji mini 25 in pink!!! 
:)
(that's why i'm selling away my fuji instax 7s?
please buy it from me? 
bag and box included! comment or email me if interested!)

dinner was at another hound cafe
we wanted to have greyhound for dinner only to realise the whole of siam square was under renovation?
so we settled for this, which was under the greyhound group too!


me, being a sweet tooth/dessert person, i was more excited about the desserts over the mains.
the DIY waffle got me hyped up!!!!!!



my main!
(i felt really guilty stuffing my face with food btw. :(
but everyone convinced me to just eat. 
and i did, but of course i didn't gorge myself.
moderation is key!)

R's main!

wingz


just look at that!!!!
red velvet waffle x chocolate waffle x bananas x strawberries x chocolate flakes

you're supposed to DIY your own waffle onto your own side dish.
R and i had a little "competition" as to who could create a waffle with the best presentation!
teehee.

woah. intense.

yummmy.

happy only.

headed back to the hotel and i worked out for abit after all that guilty eating! :(
boo.

the gym was crap btw, but o well, beggers can't be choosers! 

Day 3!



we took the BTS to CTC!

aw bunnies!!
reminds me so much of miffy when she was younger!

especially love the bunnies from this stall!
so darn cute!

i swear literally everywhere had these damn oppa gangnam style tees okay?!
urgh.

we walked round and round CTC for about one hour just to find this stall that I used to patronise with my mom and sis for the longest time.

I think R got abit annoyed for awhile there but I threw a mini bitch fit so I guess...
he had to appease me first?
 so he carried on finding the place for me.
(I WIN! ^^)

after about an hour or so... we finally found the place!!!!!!
WHOOP!


seafood tom yum with mama mee!
(SO SO SO GOOD!)

omelette with pork!



pork with garlic!

OH YES!

Oh God.

I WAS AT CTC.
WHAT DO YOU EXPECT?!
>:(

see, it's everywhere, i told you!

but... we didn't manage to eat it this time round cause they ran out of it and we lost the other stall selling it.
:(

"we do not check ID card & restaurant"

R buying street food!
so proud of him because he's never one to try such food nor is he adventurous at all.
so yay!
baby steps!

hahaha.
we rushed down to the mini mart to get junk just cause a nice movie was gonna premier in like 5 mins time.
you know how the top of the channel always has a little bar thingy which shows you what's coming up next?
well, scream 4 was screening next and we got all excited and R was like "shucks, should have bought stuff to eat!"
me being me, very happily said "let's go down! now!!!"
it was around 1155 btw.
and so off we went. 
it was so funny and impromptu!

Day 4!
