Take one of our cheap flights to Thailand

First of many posts

Updated 17 June 2006

Let’s start off with the most painful one – the post trip accounting.

Sans my shopping expenses, I managed to stay within my estimated budget. I had a couple of expenses that I didn’t allocate for: Internet and laundry. However, since I got a free and loaded ez-link card in Singapore and decided to skip Sentosa in favor of shopping, my actual expenses was almost US$100 below my estimate. Unfortunately, if we don’t count the Singapore estimates and expenses altogether, I went over my Thailand budget by US$60.

And it’s a whole different story if you add in the amount I spent shopping.

How far have you gone?

Updates coming soon

Thong Nai Pan Noi, Ko Pha Ngan

I’ve left Thailand yesterday, after ten days. I’m now at my brother’s house in Singapore, trying to get in the mood to start writing the many entries and articles I need to post online and submit. Meh. Maybe tomorrow. More pictures posted at my flickr.

I have no life

Damnit, why am I online again? They shouldn’t Internet cafes in every corner *grumble*

It’s drizzling outside, so I ducked in this one building to get out of the rain. There’s an Internet Cafe so might as well go online. I like this computer though… they have Opera! Yay! The computers also have this coin thingie beside it. Fifteen minutes for 10 baht. Not bad.

So far, I’ve ridden the BTS, ridden 3 ferries along the Chao Phraya, wandered around until I got lost, but I still managed to find the travel agent’s office. I rule. Nyahahahaha. Yet, I’m still in front of — CRAP! My botter water spilled on my seat >_< The seat of my pants is wet. At least my pants are a bit water resistant. I should be dry in a couple of minutes. I hope. –
the computer. *sigh*

This water bottle is giving me tons of trouble. I also spilled water in the travel agent’s office earlier. I dropped the cap on the floor and when I bent down to get it, out comes the water. Go me.

After my 2nd 15-minute Internet, I’m going to continue searching for the elusive Tha Pra Ahtit pier and maybe head on to Wat Po. Or maybe to the mall. Hmmm.

I’m alive!

Fourteen hours, two plane rides, two bus rides and a walk in the rain. I’m still alive, and somehow managed to survive. Whee!

I kept on dozing on the plane to Bangkok that I never even took ONE picture. Wow. I’m feeling kinda woozy, probably the result of not eating or drinking much.

Must rest now, long day tomorrow.
