well,I remember that I really want to write about an old lady that I met in Church of St. John in Bangkok, so I shall continue the story about my adventure in Bangkok.
Chatuchak is a weekend market in Bangkok. It's SUPERBIG and I saw from aromatherapy to snack, from pets to souvenirs! HAHAHAHA. It literally had everything in CHEAP prices. I didn't think that I would buy lots of stuff, but at the end I really bought various things, starting from Elephant soap for Angie and Evi, lighter for my Dad (i nvr know what i should give for my dad, so i always buy lighter), pillow sheet for my mom, wallets, wooden souvenir to clip photo for myself, shirt which is written "i'm working working working". hehehe..
then I and WAranya went to Church of St. John near the market (only 2 subway stops). It was locked :( thankfully, Waranya asked a girl to open the gate, but I could only take pic and pray at the grotto outside and in front of St. JOhn's statue.I don't hv any ideas how it was inside. well, aft the girl opened the gate, she locked the gate again so we couldn't get out. Waranya greeted an old lady who was arranging the flowers and the old lady couldn't speak English. The lady was very nice and Waranya told me, the lady said sth like "peace be with you".
So..that's my story in Bangkok. Waranya went to airport with me then I flew to Phuket. Phuket was very similar to Bali. Not many drivers knew Sikka Boutique Hotel, the hotel where I would stay in Phuket. Btw, the cab driver that finally dropped me to the hotel was quite interesting. He told about the alarm light near the beaches in Phuket, how I didn't need to worry if there was a tsunami (duhh), and he gave his number for me to call him when I needed to go to airport on the last day of vacation.
the hotel was quite small and it was sooo comfortable. I was just having dinner and watching while I was waiting for Andrea and Mami. Initially I wanted to walk to Patong Beach alone, but I was quite scared coz it was dark and as I walked further, I could alr see some pubs,so I just turned around..
Why is this blog a bottled sunshine? It started from Student Leaders Retreat in Eusoff Hall in September 2009. A prof mentioned that I'm like a bottled sunshine. Well,bottled sunshine also needs supply from the sun:) There will be moments when the sun is covered by the cloud. Nevertheless, I hope this blog can still radiate a little bit of the sunshine for other people.
