Bangkok 2016

Time passed so quickly i would say.

2 months have passed since i went to Bangkok with my annoying travel buddy. Presenting Serene -









It was my third time travelling there and honestly speaking, I don't think i would ever get bored of Bangkok.


The shopping, food heaven.. (Im making myself drool as i mention about this)




This very trip was planned about 4 weeks before travelling, something that i specialise in, IMPROMPTU. Many of my friends would describe me as extremely spontaneous. It might be something good or something bad to another. For example, i may call you and ask if you are free, followed by telling you to meet in an hour's time. Haha.

Back to my trip. Though i may have planned it 4weeks before hand, you may be shocked to know that I've only spent $298 for both flights to and fro and 5nights hotel stay in pratunam area.

This time round to Bangkok, i decided to make a simple vlog thou i would like to first make a disclaimer that I'm a noob at this kind of editing video stuff. I tried to make a video previously and because i didnt know how to cut, combine or even fast forward a clip. So, don't be harsh at this video below. 

To watch on youtube, click on link below!

Basically we flew with AirAsia, spent our days shopping non stop in pratunam (yes we woke up almost daily in the morning just to shop at their morning market) platinum mall, chatuchak and even my first time to Talad Rod Fai, couldn't find it during my previous trip in Bkk.

Met up with her cousin who also stayed with us for a few nights thou she was staying in another hotel just right opposite us, and then shopping together.


My best buy of the trip that is not clothes would definitely be these pair of sunglasses inspired from SNAPCHAT filter ><



The 6days together flew by in a blink of an eye, the nights spent there watching animated Mr bean series, bingeing on the egg omelette sold at our hotel downstairs, all the takeaways. I miss it.

How could i miss a selfie taken there? Hahaha.


Tricked my friends with the fake septum piercing that made me look like a bull, made my nose itch like no other. But its alright, 20baht (80cents)for fun sounds reasonable.



The saddest part of my trip, back to SG.


And there i hope you enjoyed reading  my blogpost as well as watching my video in which i hope it would help in your trip to bangkok in the near future! Till the next time!

ezbuy?

Hey, I am back again despite my really hectic schedule to introduce something i have always loved doing. That is to shopping without burning a hole in my pocket or my bank.

Most of you might have heard of ezbuy right? Known to many people as the most convenient, cheapest and fastest online shop in Singapore. Like i have mentioned on my Instagram, i always love buying clothes that are not more than $10 and most of my clothes costs an estimated amount of JUST $5 to my recent buys, and last time, it was an estimated amount of $15. Check out the difference by $10! And of course the reason why you shop from ezbuy is due to the fact that it is shipped directly from the country of origin and it helps to bypass any importer, exporters, distributors and retailers, which made it somehow the same as wholesale!

Next, have you heard about the prime system?

If not, let me explain. prime basically offers unlimited shopping fees at only $2.99 regardless of size, weight or even quantity, so no matter how much you buy, it is only $3, which i personally feel is so much cheaper because shipping fee is the most expensive thing ever for me. Thus, without the extra payment, you can even ship super heavy things such as furniture. 

In order to enjoy 50% savings off agent fee on prime orders, there is an instant upgrade to SVIP Membership.

AITES, time for the best part, DISCOUNT CODE! 
Free $10 credit/shopper voucher when you are using ezbuy for the first time by going to this link and register.

Thanks so much for reading!

Update.

Its been quite some time since I last wrote.

I've been trying to wonder why. Was it because i am too busy with my school life or have I gotten lazy? Been feeling exhausted recently and perhaps its due to attachment, mondays to fridays were filled with attachment being AM or PM shift, saturdays are filled with NDP rehearsals and sunday being my rest days, often have stuff going on.
Etc : Attended the gala premiere of 'At Cafe 6', a new movie that is coming out on 14july which is this thurday! 
Thank you to shaun for inviting me along to catch this movie, much appreciated!


Taken during my first NE show where these whole bunch of people and i went to usher Roysth school to stadium for NDP.

Been caught up with loads of stuff, events, school. And i wish to still find time to rest and just chill. Its just the first day of school for the term and its horrifying to know that next week is the commencement of class tests already. With that being horrifying, whats worse is the presentation that i have this friday, not to mention next week as well. It just seems like time is not enough for me to finish up whatever I have in plan.

Some of you might have known that i was hospitalized. Basically, i was diagnosed with Gastroenteritis (Inflammation of the stomach and intestines), vomiting and diarrhoea seems to be the most frequent thing that i was doing. And as you can see from all these vomiting and diarrhoea, of course i got severely dehydrated. And thats not the worse, my whole body was weak to the point that i couldn't stand up by myself without the risk to fall down again. My legs just couldn't hold the weight of my body at all.

As i was in school, my teachers felt that i really needed to go to the hospital for treatment due to the fact that my blood pressure was going really low and my heart rate went to about 200 which is really high and abnormal.


Yes, I was admitted that very day as i had to be on drips. As it was a friday, i am very honoured that my bunch of classmates/really good friends cabbed over to the hospital straight after class ended. They wanted to tag along to the hospital when the ambulance arrived by due to the test we had and lessons, they had no choice but to stay in school. I can't ask for better friends like them. 

I was in the hospital for 5 days, although the doctors felt that i needed to stay longer as my body was still really weak when i left, some of my friends were really kind to come and visit me a couple of times during my time in the hospital, bringing me food thou i was Nil By Mouth. When i could finally eat, yall brought even more stuff for me to eat :D. Very much appreciated, and you guys know who you are.


Of course i had to have a photo during my stay in the hospital.

I also treated my stay in the hospital as an experience as many of you might know that i am a student nurse. With this stay in the hospital, i get to experience what my patients are experiencing during their stay in the hospital thus i was able to relate to them. The countless amount of fluids that are pumped into me, not being able to eat for so many days, countless needles pricks for blood tests and to insert the intravenous cannula for the drips.

The hospital stay was real boring due to the fact that i was under such heavy fluids and my body was too weak to move around the hospital, so 24/7 of my time was spent on this very bed unless im out for procedures or toilet. Boy was i glad to finally get out after 5 days.

In total, i missed about 2 weeks of school for the term due to MCs and hospitalization leave, so you can see im struggling so badly with my studies by trying to catch up on the stuff that i have missed out. In poly, missing one lessons is equivalent to mission a whole lecture worth of topic, and that is ALOT, making me even busier than before as i have to spend extra time to study.

And yea, back to reality, back to school. 

This is just kind of a little update on my life to tell y'all that im not dead yet haha. Perhaps i should share with you guys on my trip to Paris a couple of weeks back, but i'll have to see if time permits due to the fact that as i am writing this post, im falling asleep, thats how tired i am. 

Signing off is me, Jia Min, have a great night ahead! :D
