ahh sangappp malas ni tp sebab dah mulakan so kena abihkan.. maka cuba abihkan in one bulk kalo rajin kalo makin sangap maka berpartpart la tak abih2..
20th November 2009because of the time difference and i didn't set my watch to thailand hours so we started really early.. going down for breakfast at 0700 (our watch is oledi 0800, and from this time onwards the story will be in thailand hours)..
looked at the breakfast and i gulp.. gosh what to eat.. memang ada variety of foods tapi kaknab warned me not take ANYTHING.. even the telur goreng coz they might fried it with minyak babi.. aduh babi sungguh.. so EVERYDAY i took only fruits and toast.. EVERY SINGLE DAY.. i curse u babi..
today takde apa aktiviti for the debator team cuma registration around 1500 and there will be and adjudicator test at 2000 so we decided to jalaaannnnnnnn.. then after breakfast lepak2 a bit and waited for the right time to jalanjalan..
don't really know where to go, sempat digging out just a bit of info about where to go when we're in bangkok and i choose to go to the shopping complex MBK.. heard much about 'em.. we had a map in our hand but how to go there.. by taxi? tuktuk? oh bodoh sungguh rasa sbb bleh tak perasan MRT station masa ni btol2 dekat luar hotel.. kalu tak naik MRT je senang gilak..
sebaik saje kuar kawasan hotel pak tuktuk sambut dengan senyum mesra.. he can speaks english so-so so i told him that we want to go to MBK, he said that MBK will only open at 1030 (its only 1000 at that time), so he said that he brings us to a souvenir place and if we were inside for more than 15 minutes, he can get a chop for gasoline.. so we think ok la why not.. we could buy some souvenir for our family and frens and also helped the tuktuk uncle.. and the journey begins..
the Tuktuk from our view.. tuktuk in thailand is known for their fast and furious driving style and yes it is.. scary maaa.. i need to hold on tight.. tapi overall ok jek.. kadang2 ada gak scene2 yg menakutkan bila dia buat u-turn and the car from other side was just thisssss close (err ibu jari dengan jari telunjuk didekatkan pada jarak 1 cm)
when we arrived at that so-called souvenir shop, its actually a jewellery place - gold, gems, crystal and so on.. oiii aku bawak duit RM500 jek oiii apakejadahnya nak suh aku beli emas buat souvenir.. ndak xndak layankan je ler.. so kitorang pun buat2lah tengok-tengok sume segala harta pusaka yang ada kat situ.. '
oh mem, don't walk so fastttt, please look at which design u liiikkeeeee so we can custom made it for youuuuuu' (baca lah dengan nada lembut orang siam untuk dapat feel)
'here madammmm, we have a promotion over hereeee, only 1000bahttttt, take a look memmmmmm'... 'if u don't like gold madammm, we have crystal here for youuuuuu, very nice madammmmmm'perghhhh tekanan beb.. sampai kat hujungggg sekali akhirnya ada jugaklah dia jual2 pelbagai souvenir.. harga dia ok la so tersangkut jugaklah kitorang kat situ lebih dari 15 minutes so we did helped the tuktuk uncle to get a chop for free gasoline..
then abih naik balik tuktuk.. the tuktuk uncle seems less friendly now compared when he first met us, then dia pun anto kami sampai sebelah MBK..
'u cross the road'.. hmm ok la sebab memang ada jejantas segala pastu dia kata plak '
oh u want to go to muslim food? halal?' because at first we do asked him about halal food and suddenly he took off 'i show u halal food'.. ah sudah aku xlapor lagi ni xmau la pegi.. ttapi uncle tu dah melaju dengan tuktuk bersama kitorang kat dalam tuktuk.. kaknab dah risau2.. but then aku bajet dia just nak tunjuk je la kat mana tempat tu.. then sampai lah dekat Fatimah Muslim Food apakenama dia lebihkuranggitulerbunyiknya.. '
ok u cross the road' ah siol btol asik nak kena cross the road jek ni..
'eh uncle we are not hungry, we want to go to MBK' '
oh i thought u want halal food' '
yessss but not now, right now we want to go to MBK'..
tuktuk uncle dengan muka boring pun jalan.. ntah lalu ceruk mana pastu dekat jalan ala2 sunyi dia brentikan kitorang '
MBK over there, u go there' 'where??' '
thereeee' bayar tambang dalam 50THB = RM5 (lebihkuranglerr) tuktuk uncle jalan.. so kitorang pun jalan la dekat arah yang dia tunjuk.. sampai depan tu jalan besor, kitorang terpinga2.. gila la mana ada MBK.. ah sudah.. melihatkan kitorang terpinga2, dengan pantas ada pakcik teksi warna warni tanya (teksi di thailand cantik2 okay uolsss, warna warni i likeeee) '
khapkunkhapprumpram pongprang'.. '
ah??' '
oooo u don't speak thaiiiii??' '
ohooo noooo' (kekdahnya orang muslim siam kalu pakai tudung sah-sah sama jek ngan muka kita ye tuantuanpuanpuan)
'where do u want to gooooo?' '
MBK' '
okay come i send you to MBK for 20THB, but i send u first to the souvenir place, a jewellery place' shoootttt not again.. '
oh its ok we just came back from the place, we want to go to MBK'.. '
this place is goooddd, there's a promotion todayyyy, if u go there, i get the chop for free gasolineeeee' ooo bloody hell who cares.. and we spent about 5 minutes arguing about not wanting to go to the jewellery place.. at last '
okay i send u to MBK 50THB' ah chulalongkorn btol.. '
okay la okay whatever'
see colourful taxi.. macam2 kaler ada.. kuning ijau pink oren.. ceria u.. akhirnya sampai la kitorang kat MBK.. the shopping complex is big.. a lot and lot of things.. we found halal food but it is very expensive, i had plain rice with tomyam and ayam kunyit 220THB = RM22 duhhhh.. we bought quite a lot of souvenir there..
uish baru prasan ni gigih depa ni dah ada meri krismas ngan hepi new year..
oh yang tomyam tuh sebelah gerai ni.. around 1500 we hurried back to hotel, taking a cab and cost 50THB, very cheap.. met with the Guozhang who was looking for me.. we discussed about the registration, the cost for one team is USD85 or around 3000THB, and for the observer (me) we have to pay about 2000THB.. the problem was when the students made the budget they forgot to include the observer's fee so basically we don't have enough money so i decided that i will not be the observer.. the team okay with it so settled..
registrationnn.. so i just hang around with them waiting for the registration and the opening ceremony.. off to our room and lepak till nite..
so end of the day.. sangapppppp..
