Bangkok shopping and sightseeing. /// 2:55 AM

SAWADIKA.

came back from bangkok last night. It was LOVELY.

went to bangkok with my aunties who were in their late twenties and their boyfriends, cousins...
the shopping there was a little outrageous. we were like having only 5-6 hour sleep for most nights.

arrived in bangkok at 2a.m and needed to wake up at 5 plus for some touring around Bangkok. first day, went to a temple thru boat and took a million photos there, fed fish in the river, went to a jewellery factory, blah blah blah... and the next few days just passed in a blur. was like shopping from 9a.m to bout 12-2a.m everyday.my aunt said never to be late for shopping... :) they are really 100% shopaholics...
it's really very hectic. but can't blame us, our hotel was surrounded by shopping malls. prices there have increased.. more expensive now. quite saddening la.
Realised shopping can bring disadvantages to the body, like backache, feet sore, felt a pull in veins in the ankle... it was really tiring.. but fun.

It was such a pity i couldnt see the ah quah show cuz i was underaged. mum who went with dad many years ago said it was fun. nvm, another two years more...

There was this mad taxi driver who broke many driving rules when he was fetching us back to the hotel. he was speeding at a very busy road, switching lanes like nobody's business, driving in lanes where cars came in the opposite direction, honking at cars even though it was red light, driving into narrow alleys at such a fast speed that he almost knocked someone down... i remember thinking to myself, "So, this is how my life is going to end." but come to think of it, it had been one exciting ride that i'll never forget.

Spent a bomb on food.everyday, we were like going to all kinds of restaurants to eat, like some S & P restaurant, which sells delicious fried macaroni with chicken, steamboat restaurant, a whole lot of japanese restaurants. from morning to night, it was all restaurants and buffets. kinda mad la. but the food there is SCRUMPTIOUS!!!

now it's goodbye luxurious life and welcome back to...

HOME SWEET HOME.

-Thank You, Lord, for journey mercies as i return home safely. -

im going to Bangkok tml night. real excited..cant wait..
i can sightsee and walk till my toes ache, shop till i drop, be who i wanna be, no one knows!! :)
IT'S GONNA BE FUN FUN FUN.

flying off at 10.10 p.m.
that will be in bout 28 hours time. whee. pray that the flight will be peaceful. got frightened the last time back from thailand to singapore. real scary landing.

OH NO, what if something happen to me there?? what if the plane is hijacked or i got stabbed in the streets?? then i'll leave with so many things left unsaid, so many things not done.

Guess i'll never know when it'll be the end for me. it could be next week, day, maybe even minute. but it'll be fun going to heaven. :) no suffering, worries. just happiness and rejoicing.

-Thank You, Lord, for the greatest place in the whole wide world. -

What I am Living For. /// 12:37 PM

What i am living for from this day forth:

Be a cheerful giver.
Be contented with what i have.
Do not desire for things that are not long and lasting.
Desire for GOD's LOVE!!!

only then my world will be happier.

-Thank You, Lord, for tears in heaven.-
