Strange Curses

The problem with me when i am on holiday is that i tend to think about people back at home.

and that have left me $150 poorer. haha...but i don't mind because i know that when i bring these stuff back, i make people happy.

I woke up really early this morning to go for a little adventure around Patong beach.

Walked around the district and saw some interesting stuff.


I call this the pepsi fruit stand.


Many types of fruits....some i have never seen before.

I also went to the beach...Yes, where the tsunami is...but no tsunami jokes for me. because the destruction and devestation is very real!


The Andaman Sea behind me.

The view was breathtaking and i realised that there wasn't a slightest hint that a tsunami had occured.


Nice hor?


Beach chairs decked nicely...


Not my friend, just another tourist whom i asked to take a picture for me but he took a picture with me.


my slippers almost got swept out to sea while i was taking this shot. haha... i rescued them.

Maybe except for this sign and some other evacuation signs.


It points towards my hotel....i guess i am safe.

Walked around a little bit more and ended in a starfucks Starbucks for a frap, light breakfast and the newspapers.


my breakfast....

Went back to the hotel with all the stuff i bought. by the time i am back, i am sweating and hot.

their morning sun is as strong as their afternoon sun.

I told John that in Phuket, the sun is not a sun....it's a fucking FIREBALL. we are there not to be tanned but to be toasted.

well, but i like being toasted...so do Carol, Steve and John and we went for another tanning session by the poolside. And i was violated by john...


john looks naked!!

he is perverted and he rode me from my back and squeezed my tits like i am some kind of prostitute.


you can tell that john is the only one enjoying this....rite?

the 4 of us decided that our adventure shld go further than playing in the pool and we got changed and rented some bikes to explore more of the island.


Super old school helmet.


ridiculously silly.


it was fun riding...so convenient.

i tell you, riding in Singapore and in Thailand is a totally different story.

the roads here are really rough

people cut your lanes

the helmet they gave me are like shit...rock climbing kind of helmet. not suitable for riding.

and we don't need a license to ride...or rather John doesn't need a license to ride.


look ma, i am riding and sticking out my tongue at the same time!!

but it was really fun albeit it was dangerous.

We rode to visit the Kathu Waterfalls...and got lost trying to find it.

we asked a local there...but he shakes his head and we just thought he didn't know what we are saying.

we found the waterfall in the end....and boy....it was a huge disappointment when we climbed like hundreds of steps up to the top of the waterfall.


the climb up...see the shagged out face and we were only halfway up.


this is the top of the waterfall...haizzz.....or should i say the source of the water for the waterfall.


this picture sums it all up....of how i feel.

I am so not amused and swore to god that our Birdpark man-made waterfall made me more excited than this.


this is what they call a waterfall.... haven't they heard of the word unexciting??

I think back to the local shaking his head....

and 3 thoughts came to my mind.

1) He really didn't understand what the fuck alien language we were saying.

2) He must be telling us "Waterfall? No waterfall." (Pun intended for the puny Kathu Waterfalls)

3) Or he must be telling us you are fucking wasting your time up there.

Oh yah...thank you Mr. Local for the information that wasn't deciphered earlier until we saw the waterfall. haha.

then we when down to a really huge shopping mall called "Central Festival" to catch a movie, eat abit of ice cream and do a little bit of shopping. I ended up another $150 poorer.


it's SFX...not SEX Coliseum. very much like our cinema....but cheaper


ice cream....omg....occupational hazard.


but i conclude that BnJ ice cream is still the best.

we watched pirates 3 and i fell asleep halfway. i don't know how long i snoozed, probably about 10mins only.

Interestingly, before the movie started, they showed a video of the thai king and all of a sudden, everyone in the cinema stood up and kept quiet. like singing the national anthem like that.

That is how much the thais adore their king.

the movie lasted 3 freaking hours and i had a backache after that.

then we went for a scrumptious seafood dinner. the food was yummy. either that or the 4 of us were really hungry.


Huge lobster they have there. really fresh as well.


Their tiger prawns are huge...and it's ending up in my tummy soon. hahaha


i love seafood....


...especially when it's this fresh.


we had Stir fried beef.....


Black pepper crabs...


and our main dish....steamed lobsters....

and went back to hotel at 3am. What a day!!
