Days

haven't been updating real happenings in my life for a while. Since the last 3 days were quite interesting here it goes.

1. Day everything went wrong (Again!)And i thought that it could only happen to me once.

Went to 909 to join the French girls, initially to watch SATC, but because we ate too long, we missed it. Accomplished taking notes for tommorrow's paper to zap from them, and joined them to go partying.

1st stop: Q-bar
Nice place with ALL girls dressed to kill. Short dress, high heels. And we? Well. Anyway we din go in not because of that, but because we thought it was Ladies Night and it's not. Since we don't wanna pay, we left (and meanwhile, Nicolas lost his phone in the cab)

2nd stop: Middle of nowhere?
It's supposed to be Booze bar we're looking for (and the girls pronounced it as though I thought it was a French word). Anyway we lost our way and the cabbie brought us to Bossy.

3rs stop: Finally at Booze?
But its closed. Shut for renovation.

And in the end? We went back to 909. (Meantime, Rose called the taxi co. to enquire about the phone, and after r3 calls, they still think she's trying to call a cab. When the call of hope came back, they only say 'Madam, your taxi is on standby'. 'Nono, I want to look for a handphone.' '..........*cut off*')


2. Hatyai

Took the train. Bought a top sleeper seat, which means we have a bed. Excited. Never been on a train in Thailand, somemore with bed. Arrived at the train and found seats that are facing each other, like just SEATS.

Distraught us tried to ask everyone, pointing very hard at the word "Upper" in the ticket, and the conductor say yes upper.

"???"

Finally we met this friendly Malay Ah-Pek (Bapak) and Rose used her rusty but still understandable Bahasa Indonesia. And finally we realise that the bed will be pulled out from above, and the lower one will be expanded to a bed too.

Phew.

Embarrassing eh, imagine how we looked with all the hand gestures and that frantic face of being cheated, and alas, realised it was a silly embarrassing mistake. Thanx to being swaku pigs.


P.S. Congrats to bro for being in the top 30 finalist in the Canon Photography competition!
