For Chinese people, the Lunar New Year that falls on Jan26 will be a great occassion to reflect on what they have achieved in the past year as well as to make a wish for the year to come.

As for all who work away from home, reunion with loved ones in the Lunar New Year holiday is the best, or one of the best, remunerations for all the hardships that have been endured during the year. Bringing money and gifts home to aged parents and young children is the greatest …

Day 4 is Family Day as we spent most of our time in Dream World or in other words, The World of Happiness. The classical European style fantasy land is located at Pathum Thani Province, just north of Bangkok. Although nothing much relating to Thai, it is the best place for family fun. Totally lost in the Fairy Tale maze, we visited the Giant’s house (Jack and the Beanstalk), strolling around Frog Prince castle, riding around with the enchanted Cinderella pumpkin carriage. Sounds childish rite? Come on, it’s dreamland.. spare yourself and be childish for a day! …

Before going on with all the good words of the magnificient Thailand, here is a bad one. Exactly one month after the nostalgic moment, a dramatic event happened. Anti-government protesters in Bangkok blockaded Suvarnabhumi, one of Asia’s busiest airports since 25th November, Tuesday night. Seeking to oust Thai Prime Minister in the latest escalation in a long-running political crisis. Now that all flights are cancelled, …

This is a continuation to the previous post. Thus, it is advisable to first go through previous “Amazing Thailand: Expected the Unexpected (Day 1)“.
Yet while Bangkok has undoubtedly embraced westernization and modernization, it remains undeniably a Thai place at heart. In between the skyscrapers and sophisticated shopping centers there’s still the remarkable temple lying everywhere in the city. Day 2 has proved to us that traditions live on too!
It was early 5.30 in the morning. Bangkok is one hour slower than Malaysia. Thus, we can expect early sunrise over …

Same old words again. Time really flies. After 20 days back to the River City, the great moments in Thailand can never be dished out. In the first place, why should I ?
It has been almost a decade, our family stop travelling overseas. Money and time has always been the main hindrance. Now that both siblings are working, our dream finally came true. This time we decided to visit Thailand. The niggling doubts regarding the safety of the city due to …

Finally, it’s time to go home. This time, I travelled with my sis by plane. Ya, as usual I’ll never waste any of my time sitting there doing nothing waiting for our departure. I’m getting most out of the Senai Airport although there is nothing much.

Her Thoughts

“Ta da” I said, showing off my new D300 to my sister. Here we go, we start the photography session. She replied, “Not again!”. Then, she started posing… huh.. Anyway, I was trying to familiarize the new DSLR before I bring it to Thailand …

Good news and bad news! The good news is my D60 was taken this morning by Brenten (a camera Export Manager). Credit to Shirley who helped me out for spreading the news. While the bad news is my D60 was taken. Ya, you didn’t get it wrong… I was a bit sad that my D60 is no longer with me as it was my first DSLR who accompanied me for 3 months. Although time is short, it has shot every beautiful memories I got.. brought my photography skills to the …

(Dear all, this post is expired as the DSLR has been taken by Brenten this morning – 17th October 2008. Thanks for the interest shown)

After a minced meat noodle, meat balls soup early 8.30am in the morning. I went in McDonald, ordered a hot chocolate and McGriddle breakfast sandwich. Sitting at the corner, logging into Wireless @ SG (free wireless broadband service).. and start writing… felt a bit moody after describing the nerve wreaking experience. Immediately got comments from 2 friends.. after published. My battery got flat… which indicates it’s time to go for DSLR survey.
