Didn't really get a good night's rest, so I woke up feeling really groggy on the 2nd day. But I was really excited because it was our designated shopping day! ^^
Woke up bright and early for breakfast at the hotel! :)



After breakfast, it was off to the city! We headed to the 4 faced Buddha for our first stop! Believe or not, we commuted via train! Took the MTR and then changed to the BTS to get to Ratchaprasong!


A random thought: while we were in Bangkok, we had no qualms about squeezing in the trains, but if we were Singapore, we would already have shot of in a string of complaints! The difference between a holiday and living in the country :/



Desperately trying to figure our way to the 4 faced Buddha. And yes, I was designated map reader and directions person in Bangkok as well. I'm awesome like that ;)

The 4 faced Buddha was about a 5 minute walk from the train station! Headed there to sight-see, pray and give our offerings. Took a really lousy picture cause I didn't know if it was okay to take pictures and I didn't wanna be disrespectful. But this is what it looked like!

Coming to think about it, I think my wishes did kinda come true, in some sort of way. So looks like I might just be back in Bangkok soon.. I hope.
After we were done at the 4 faced Buddha, our resident commanding officer/ YS forced us to walk all the way to Platinum Mall! I think the amazing thing about travelling with YS is, we don't ever get to lead our spoilt lives and because of that, there's so much more that we get to see and discover!
The walk to Platinum mall took about 15 minutes and the moment we got there, we practically shopped for 6 hours straight! I shopped so much, I could hardly carry my stuff :( I didn't get much stuff for myself but instead, I bought a gajillion things for everyone (which I got lectured for btw)
Thankfully, YS was awesome enough to help me with my loot! :D

See me drowning and disappearing amongst my shopping bags? :X

We were supposed to head over to Rama 3 to meet up with YS's friend, but we ended up detouring to MBK for some last minute stuff. Believe or not, YS made us walk with all our shopping stuff for about 15 minutes, before we gave up and squeezed into a tuk-tuk (which was the ride of my life!!)
Thank heavens we did because it was like like a 10 minute drive?! Imagine if we were walking, omg.


Zhnged my BB at MBK while the rest shopped for electronic helicopters and aeroplanes. Time spent in MBK was terrible for me though, cause I was having a massive headache and started running a temperature :( But lucky for me, I am a walking pharmacy!
Once we were done running errands, we made our way to Tawandang German Brewery at Rama 3! We have an outlet here in Singapore btw. And for those who don't know, basically its an eatery with beer and live entertainment.
I was rather apprehensive about my visit, but I was surprised because I absolutely enjoyed myself!! The entertainment was really good! The songs and performances were a mix of Thai, English and K-Pop! Apparently K-Pop is very big in Thailand too! :D













After dinner, it was a last minute decision to head out to club! We wanted to visit Route 66(RCA) but we ended up at Funky Villa in Thonglor because YS's friends were there! It was a quick change up at the hotel before we cabbed over!
The club played really awesome live music and hip hop/rnb! Not to mention, we were partying behind the bar! The drinks just kept coming..





And because where girls go, drama follows.. We ended up skipping supper and heading back to our hotel where we concussed, no thanks to the insane amount of alcohol we had :/
Bkk day 3 coming up soon! :)
Xoxo.
