December 24th, 2005

Yes u ols! Mrasalah mek dosi bangun awal katanya. Tak der lah AWAL sangat but at least, sempat la mek gi complimentary breakfast itiew. Hiks! Although SEDEH la breakfastnye (THB104 = RM10.40 katanya) - you get a glass of Orange Juice, a cup of coffee (or tea), 3 slices of toasts with marmalade and butter, telur sparuh masak - OK KE u ols? hiks!

And afterwards, mek dosi registerkan nama mek utk tour around Royal Golden Palace? Apa tah - it's one of the tours the hotel provided. Mek tarkik. Ok sajo katanya, but mrasalah tunggu 12.30pm baru pick up datang amik mek ke tour itiew. So apa mek buat sepanjang pagi itiew? Yes u ols. Mek buat KEJE! Heheheeh...

Went out to meet up couple of people, mostly my agents there - discussed tu discussed ini, renewed contract rates lah, get new packages lah, and etc. Bla bla bla - list goes on and on. Tapi ade satu agent mek nih, VERY DERRRRR merembes sundel! Tapi mrasalah dia kekwat nihhh dengan mek nih! Sentap! Tapi for further info, kalau korang pi Bangkok, pi la tgk dia sendiri. Nama dia Anong (Aiyoh! Teringat mek kat pondan durjana alam malapetaka langit dan bumi si ANON itiew! LOL!) - dan dia kerej di TRAVEX! Mrasa mrasa pi la tgk sendiri - tau laaaa merembes cam mana nanti! HAHAHAH. Tapi bile terpikirkan si ANON tu pulak, terus potong stim! (tah sapa tah Anon tu pon mek dinch hui tapi penuh nih dengan spekulasis! LOL!)

Tanpa disedari, betapa busynya mek masuk keluar masuk keluar agency itiew ini, jumpe agent² mek, nah - ALARM hp mek berbunyi... kat screen hp mek...

"BALIK HOTEL LAHANAT! KANG TERLEPAS TOUR!" boleh? LOL! CDS katanya! (Carut Diri Sendir! hehehehe...)

Mujur lah all my agents (except the one kat Travex tu) punye offices semuanye dedekat area Silom and Silom main. So tak der la sangat masalah mek nak berlari ala² mengejar² crown katanya kannn balik ke Hotel mek. Sempat lagik mek mandian seround, siap², touch up semua, then boleh masuk online 5 minit kat lobby punye internet itiew while waiting for the pick up van to arrive. Mrasalah mahal nak mampos! 5 minutes, THB100 katanya - HAIYOH! Baik lah cc yang semalam tu lagik better, baru THB300 for an hour, KAN!? Hanjs sangat! Mek upset! OFF PC TU TERUS!

So anyways, the van arrived. Not bad aih. It's more or less like a private coach gittiew, ala ala for 30 pax (or maybe less, but it's definitely not like Jelita Transtour 2 tengkat itiew!). So waktu mek naik the coach, dosi ade 2 couples. 1 couple tu orang putih dua orang, pak cik and mak cik. Friendly. Yang satu lagik couple tu, mek speku! Sebab si laki tu mat salleh, and the girl tu local. So mek speku, the girl tu... ermm... you know? Tapi tak kisah la - they too baik also, senyum nih sampai ke telinga kat mek! Hehehehe...

From my hotel, kami pi amik lah lagik beberapa hamba Allah semua... and by the time habis amik semua orang, dalam bas tu I would say ade lah dalam, like, 20 of us? Ade satu family tu, Malaysian lagi - dari Penang katanya! Hiks! Mrasalah mek berkepit sajo dengan anak lelaki nye yang mek rase dalam 20 - 21 yo itiew. Tak der lah meletop sangat muka, ala ala stock boleh cover dengan the brown shopping paper bags with two holes just for his eyes. But the body, mek pasti LeeZiah suka - berketul!!!!!!! Tapi mek budget dia straight, sebab kalau tak, takkan dia layan mek biasa sajo? Ke sebab mek tak drag? Opps!

SO lepas dah habis amik semua orang, baru lah kami menuju ke itiew Royal Golden Palace tu... on the way tu pun, sempat mek terlelap katanya. Sampai² ajo, nah - entrance!!! Grand nih! Mek nak lah buat umah mek nanti, pintu gate nak masuk umah mek nanti setinggi itiew! Mrasalah pakai platform heels pon belom tentu dapat mengintai mek tgk buat apo! Mati la Paparazzis! Hiks!

Oppps! It's not Royal Golden Palace - it's Royal Grand Palace. Hehehe my mistake. So anyways, bawah nih ade lah some pics yang mek snappy² waktu kat sitiew...

The Grand Entrance katanya!

The grounds of The Royal Grand Palace

Pic nih dari Internet! Cuba bezakan dengan pic kat bawah nih!

Pic yang mek snappy - sama kah?

RM25 hengget sajo nak masuk, cik murs kan?

Dome nih la ala² mek speku - all in GOLD ke fake gold?

Entah kenapa - mek teringat kat Ginger bile tgk patung cendana nih. Awat tatau?

Mek suke pic bunga nih! Suke suke suke!

A little info about this place... Sources:
http://bangkok.thailandtoday.com/sightseeing/08_0002_grandpalace.html

When King Rama I ascended the throne in 1782, he decided to move the capital city from the area on the west bank of the Chao Phraya River, where the former Thonburi Palace was located, to the Eastern side of the river. The construction work lasted for three years. The Grand Palace was built then, with a temple or Royal Chapel located within the compound of the palace.

The architectural plan of the new Grand Palace is almost identical in every detail to that of the Royal Palace in the former capital of Ayutthaya. It was built close to the river facing north with the river on the left. This palace has an area of 218,400 sq. metres and is surrounded by walls built in 1782. The length of the four walls is 1,900 metres. Within these walls are situated government offices and the Chapel Royal of the Emerald Buddha besides the royal residences.

Rama I moved the centre of administration to this side of the Chao Phraya and, after erecting public monuments such as fortifications and monasteries. The King ordered the palace to be built not only as his residence but also as his offices--the various ministries, only one of which remains in the palace walls. This palace came to be known as the Grand Palace, in which the earliest edifices contemporary with the foundation of Bangkok were the two groups of residences named the Dusit Maha Prasat and the Phra Maha Monthian.

The palace is divided into three sections:
- The Outer Palace (Phra Ratchathan Chan Nok) on the north
- The Middle Palace (Phra Ratchathan Chan Klang) at the east
- The Inner Palace (Phra Ratchathan Chan Nai) to the west

And bla bla bla bla... panjang sundel! Tak kuasa aku nak copy paste. Now, mrasalah in my own words.

The place is super dooper huge (I mean, tak der lah huge SANGAT² but it definitely made me all berpeluh and what not and by the time habis pusing the whole place itiew, mrasalah mek KEMPOT!) - yang kita dok kata kuil kuil temple bagai semua itiew, for them, it's like, PALACE! Memang pon! Diaorang punye Kings dulu² kan stayed sinik. Mrasalah every wall has it's own stories to tell. Tapi mek couldn't be bothered nak dgq tourguide mek tu cakap apa. Sah sah 10 dia cakap, 9 mek tak paham. Walaupun in English, tapi, pepaham sajo la kan, Thailand people nak cakap English, very der berbelit nih. So mek pun pusing² sendirian, buat spekus on my own.

Bekas istana ke ape tah - now jadik macam ala² guesthouse utk royalties katanya!

Abang Ask (ke Guard sajo? Leez - klarifykan siket!) - dengan siapakah?

Aiyoh! Siapakah ini? Feeling katanya mau pose - tak sedar diri dosi gebebab!?

Mek suke pic mek yang nih - OPPS! Mek ke? La la la la la la...

It seems I cannot run away dari nak snappy² pics bunga, KAN? MAT BUNGA KA!? LOL!

Mek rase, yang kita dok nampak shinning² glittering² yang kita dok sangka real gold and diamonds and what not semua itiew, mrasalah itu DULU! Now, dengan perkembangan Thailand as one of the major tourists destinations, I think, depa dah tukarkan kepada the real gold, diamonds, rubies and what not kepada a fake one. Yer lah, bayangkan. Kalau sorang tourist pi curik diamond ke, amik gold tu ke, buat crown ke ape ke, HA! By the time SEMUA tourists amik semua itiew, MRASALAH palace itiew tiada ado nya yang GRAND dah, kan? Besides, it's better depa boh yang tak ori pon. Macam la ada beza sangat pon? Tapi the tourist guide nih asik lah confident cakap it's real gold and stuffs. Mek tak percaya. You ols percaya ke?

And 24th tu, hari mek pi tu, hari Budha ape tah? So macam, ade lah macam upacara sembahyang ape depa semua tu. So like, the place was like, gile babeng punye crowded! Mrasalah mek semput dalam half way during the tour. Serious u ols. Ramai giler! Mat Sallehs jgn cakap la kan! Ramai nih! Mek pon dalam semput² tu, sempat jugak mata mek nih (mata yang tak bercontact lense dan berbulu mata palsu itiew yer - mati la Kie!) melewar kiri kanan carik kot² ado yang candiew. Ade tu ade, but knowing ME, nak snappy² pics depa, MEK JADIK TAKUT! Oh for heaven's sake, mek bukan seberani Sherry atau LeeZ the Pioner the President PPCM itiew! Opps!

And so lepas dah beberapa jam kat situ (seriously, u ols takkan sedarpon yang u ols dah berjam jam dok kat situ sebab there are so many things to see, so many things to admire, jgn lupe, so many people to feast your hungry eyes with kan...) kami pun pulang (Aiyoh! Why the "Kami pun pulang..." tu, mek rase macam ayat skema UPSR sajo? LOL!). Pulang terus ke hotel ke? ADDINCH! The tour sambung bawak kami ke Thailand's largest (eh, ke World's largest? Mek rase WORLD kot...) Gem Factory and Exhibition Centre. AIYOH! Mata mek berpinar² sundel! BLING BLINGS EVERYWHERE! SANGAT² MENGHAIRAHKAN!!! Hiks!

Tapi, mrasalah SENTAP - sesentap malam semalam waktu mek kat A Go Go Boys Club itiew. Kenape? AIYOH! Apa lagi - DINCH CAMERA katanya! Tak dibenarkan! DAMN! I shoudln't have trade in my Nokia7200! CHIS!

So, ok... Memula after minum your welcome drink (curlasst! Dapat welcome drink sundel!), these people kat factory tu will bring you to watch a video presentation about the jewelleries and stuffs - bla bla bla. Telan air liur jer mek nengok batu batu diamond² tu semua. Tu baru dalam video! Lepas like 5 minutes, kami proceed ke area factory nye itiew, dimana you get to see these people buat the designs, ukirans, gilapping, and semuanya lah. Macam, get to see these people buat those jewelleries la. From rantai, choker, cincin, subang - aiyoh! Makan hati! Tapi mek tetap suka yang kat SEMUA HOUSE, MASJID JAMEK ITIEW! Tadak tempat lain lebih meletop dari sitiew! HIKS!

And lepas dah habis tgk jejantans yang dok sebok buat keje, buat jewelleries itiew (oopps! I mean, lepas habis tgk cara² buat jewelleries itiew) - haaa... mrasalah depa bawak kite masuk ke dalam Showroom TERBESAR di dunia katanya? Seriously, BESAR giler showroom itiew! Penuh dengan staffs, diamonds bling blong bling jgn cakap lah! AGAIN, berpinar bijikk mek nengoknye! MEK NEARRRRRLY beli cincin diamond, white diamond katanya - silver ring la kirenye... THB2200... NEARLY OK! Mujur mek tak habiskan duit kat situ. Apa yang buatkan mek tak jadik belik? Mek dok pikiaq... "HEY! Motif nak habiskan duit kat cincin² nih? ZHULIAN kan ado? MRASALAH RM88 hengget sajo! Baik mek spend the THB2200 MALAM NIH! Oooppss!" sambil tersenyum kat diri sendiri. Terus staff yang nak jual tu ala² macam sentap. Like... "Haaiii pondan! Kalau nak beli, buat cara nak beli! Kalau nak brangan, PERGIIIIIIIIIII!" Hehehehe mek speku sajo!

And then lepas itiew, BAAAAAAAARU la depa hantaq kami balik ke hotel memasing... Aiyoh! Mek penat sundel. No no, bukan penat time tu. I mean, NOW. Mek penat menaip katanya! Sat nah - mek nak smoking japs. Nak minum OJ mek sat... hehehe... REHAT TIME! -10.51pm-

-11.01pm- Mek dosi kembaliks!!!!!!!!!!!

Ok now. So, where was I? Ah yes. Balik hotel. Balik² sajo hotel, mek terus terbabas katanya! Sampai lah pukul 7 lebih rasenye, mek tidur sedap gilos! Bangun², isap rokok. Sambil isap rokok, sambil tgk tv. Dan sambil² tu, plan - "Malam nih nak pi mana pulak ek? Hmmmm..."

Sawadikappp! Welcome to Dick's Cafe - Bangkok!

And so lepas mek dosi mandian, siap² bagai semua - mek terus ke DICK'S CAFE! HAHAHAHAH DICK'S CAFE katanya kan? Dengan harapan, apo, dapat nengok DICKIES? Addinch! Mek nak mengketedaghah sundel! LAPAQ ok! Mrasalah mek dinch lunch katanya - and no tea time as well. HEHEHEHE. Mek tak pedulik, mek lapaq sangat! Lapaq sangat sampai tak sempat nak snappy my Speghetti Bolognese yang mek mengketedaghah itiew! Hiks! Yang sempat, hanya lah gambaq cup kosong - bekas mek minum hot choco katanya! Heheheeh.

My hot choco yang dosi habis, my hp yang dosi habis credits - BORING!

Dick's Cafe nih, kat Twilight Area. Yes, mek tak pi pon Silom 6 (or was it Silom 4?) Hmmmm... mek hanya terus pi ke Twilight zone tu sajo terus. So mek pun, lepas makan, main game kat hp mek sat (see, how boring I was malam tu!), at around 10nish, mek masuk satu A Go Go Club - Fresh Boys? Ape tah. Macam KESIAL sajo! Yang jadik showboys tu, muka sekoq ke sekoq, SEMUANYA HADEK²! EWWWW! Koser! Serious u ols! Mek yang dah TERLAJAK order orange juice tu, terpaksa lah habiskan minuman mek itiew. Habis sajo, MEK BERAMBUS! SO kalau korang pi Suriwong/ Twilight Zone tu, JGN masuk Fresh Boys Club! Yang semalam tu XFresh rasenya. Fresh apa kejadahnya! HADEK²!!! Mek dinch mau hadek² ok! SENTAP sangat! So lepas tu, mek terus keluar. Tension jer mek tgk the boys on the stage itiew - tgk another customer keluar kehampaan. Sesuai la dengan muka hampa, macam sedehhhhh sajo!

Suasana around Twilight Area (or was it called Zone? Area, Zone, SAMA SAJO!) Yang u ols boleh nampak kat sini, JANTAN sajo! Yang nampak pompuan tu, mrasalah drag semuanya! Unlike Silom 4 or 6 tu, perempuan betul pon banyak. Mrasalah like Bangsar Jalan Telawi area kat situ. But not Twilight area nih...

Keluar dari situ, mek pi club, DEPAN club Fresh tu. FUTURE BOYS katanya - hahahahah! Mek budget ade boys in martian suits? HAHAHA. Masuk² sajo, HAAAA Baru la happening! MERIAH sundel! Customers penuh, atas stage tu pun, MEREMBES!!! Dan malam tu, mek buat kawan baru. Hiks! CREW MAS katanya pi bercuti sengsorang! Mek pon, memula control la gibek. Dah jumpa member cam tu, PATAH RIUK TERUS! Pedulik ape kan. Mek macam tak der mood nak melacur pon. Just glad to have met this guy (no can mention the name nah!). Kami sembang pi sembang mai, gelak pi gelak mai, tgk show la, usha jantans lah - tetiber, tgh² dok ada show cikcaps katanya, ADA RUSH! MOTIF!?! @Y!*(@!&@#*(^#&(^!(@&! Mek dinch paham!

Ko bukannye kat restoran, you're in an A Go Go Boys sex club ok!

Rupa²nya depa nak check for underage. Mrasalah ade dua tiga orang yang kena tangkap. No, not the boys. The clients. YES u ols. Some of these Westerners bawak escorts yang underage katanya - Mati la Steven! (hahaha! Sure Hazel and Zack@Mamy tau citer!) SO THANKS GODS for thats! Hahahaha. Habis checking, dalam 1/2jam jugak la time wasted, terus sambung balik show. And lepas habis show, mek dengan si crew nih, kuar and pi Silom 4 (or was it Silom 6?) and lepak kat TELEPHONE! Minum², lepak², isap² rokok - sampai lah mek di tekel sorang mamat nih. Mek tgk dia macam Siam. And betul pon, sebab dia duduk dengan sorang mamat Mat Salleh. Yang peliknya, these two men asik lah dok senyum kat mek. And finally, the boy tu tegur mek...

"Are u local?"

"No... I'm from Malaysia..."

"Owwhhhhh!!!! See I told you so!" dia cakap kat Mat Salleh tu...

And then what happened lepas tu? Crew tu pon dapat sorang mat salleh, and mek ended up with this two guys. Opps! Buat apo? ADO LAH! Perlu ke citer? Dinch perlu! Hehehe... OK OK! Nak tau sangat citernye? Fine. Mek citer. We ended up... bersembang sampai 4am? OK? Puas hati? HAHAHAH lariiiiiiiiiiiiiii dari memberitahu citer sebenarnya! HAHAHAHA!!!
