Thailand Trip 2Photos plus posting this time round....Saves me the hassle to load pictures and then type another long posting altogether...Enjoy!!!!!
This is ME!!! Cam-whoring for a few minutes before going out with Laogong!! Our plan for the day, is to go visit the various temples in Bangkok...Laogong's an devoted devotee...(>,<) I'm not a Buddhist but I do enjoy visiting temples...^^
The first temple, Laogong and I visited...The "Wat Trimit" temple...It's not the biggest temple in whole of Thailand, but inside the temple houses the world's largest Buddha made of real, hard solid GOLD!!!! No kidding, man!!! Laogong and I had to purchase tickets of 20baht each before going into the temple to see this solid GOLD Buddha...This is "Wat Trimit" as a whole in model...The whole temple doesn't look sooo big but it's filled with lotsa tourists...
This is the Famous Solid Gold Buddha, largest in the whole world weighing at a hefty 5 ton plus!!! It sits in a small "wiharn" (this is what Thai people call as a space for the Buddha to sit in) within the temple...
After that, Laogong and I spent another 20baht each, purchased some offerings and prayed around in the temple...This smaller version of the Buddha is covered with pieces of gold paper, Laogong and I pasted our pieces on it as well...It is said to bring good luck or something...
Laogong and I spent around 1 hour or sooo inside "Wat Trimit" and finally left for the second temple...Laogong and I went outside of "Wat Trimit" trying to get a cab, then a Thai guy approached us...I wasn't the least interested in listening to what that guy has to say cuz the weather's a killer, plus I really just wanted to flag a cab and head down to the seond place fast...Laogong, on the other hand, for I don't know what reason...Stood and listened to the stupid guy patiently...I kept asking Laogong to come join me, flag a cab then go off but he just wouldn't bug...In the end, I stood one side impatiently and listening to the crap that guy has to offer...Laogong asked the guy how we should get to the next temple (Wat Pho) by showing that idiot our map, the idiot said we could go down by a cab or tuk-tuk (motorized-taxi), which would definitely cost us around 200 baht cuz it's quite a distance away from here...
See??? The stupid Thai guy said cab!!! Laogong wouldn't listen and that guy led us to this tuk-tuk...Telling his fellow-mate where we wanna get to, in their language and told us to get on...I was like...WTF!!! Anyway, since the stupid Thai guy said it's gonna cost 200baht, Laogong just followed-suit and also because he hadn't sat in a tuk-tuk before...Laogong totally agreed with the stupid Thai guy's recommendation to go to "Wat Pho" in a bloodly TUK-TUK!!! I relunctantly agreed and off we went...
I was darn pissed off by this tuk-tuk driver!! Not even half-way through the journey, the idiotic driver has stopped more than twice!!! Asking us, if we've been to the what blah, blah, gems , blah...Whether we wanna go to this blah, blah place that blah....I'm sooo freaking pissed off!!!! I kept complaining to Laogong, blaming him for taking this bloody hell tuk-tuk...The driver's english is POOR and he still wants to try communicate with us, telling us go this place, go that place and asking us a whole bunch of questions...I couldn't stand this idiotic driver's behavior and he too pretty much guessed it by himself in the end, and finally shut up his bloody mouth...
It was only until we're getting near to "Wat Pho", and the driver talks again...This time round, not blabbering nonsense but telling us about the Thailand Royal Palace as we passed by and then keeps his mouth shut again...I'm only pleased that the driver would just do me a favour and shut up, while I enjoy the strong-blowing wind against my cheeks...
We managed to reach "Wat Pho" after that, Laogong and I got off the bloody tuk-tuk...Laogong took out 200baht and paid the driver but the idiotic driver said it's 400baht!!!! F*ck him!! We're "slaughtered" (in cash) in the broad-daylight by this actually-not-idiotic-driver!!!!! Whatever, both Laogong and I had no choice but to "surrender" then went inside "Wat Pho"...Guess what?? The actually-not-idiotic-driver dropped us down by the wrong entrance!! I bloody-hate this driver!!!
Anyway, Laogong and I were smart enough to find the correct entrance into "Wat Pho" and look at the mighty-looking door guards of the temples...Cool huh?? All you see in SG temples, are lions but in Thailand, are these cool ones!!
I should have taken a photo or two with these door-guards...Laogong took all of these photos of them cuz he too thought, they looked cool...
Another door-guard, guarding "Wat Pho"...This temple is for those people who wants to pray and seek for the peacefulness in their lives...Laogong and I also had to purchase tickets, this time round at 50baht each, before going inside to see the infamous reclining-Buddha...
Ta-Da!! The head of the reclining-Buddha!!! It's really v.big!!! It's sleeping on sideways in the whole temple!! Lotsa tourists especially, Caucasians are in to take a look at it...
Look at the feet!! HUGE...It's called the mother of pearl and we're not allowed to touch it!! Laogong struggled quite a lil' before managing to catch a full picture of it's feet...
It's my honor, to take a picture with the infamous reclining-Buddha!!! You had no idea how long we've waited just to get this nice shot...
Laogong with reclining-Buddha!!!
Below is a picture of the full reclining-Buddha!! Humongous!!! I think this is also the biggest reclining-Buddha in the whole world!! I couldn't remember much...
We donated alms to "Wat Pho" and can each take a small bowl of 1 baht, to put into the pots you see in the pictures below...We also took quite some time to take these two shots, cuz there were lotsa people waiting to put in the coins as well...
Laogong walked behind me, together we finished putting in all the coins...To pray for a peaceful life...
Laogong and I with one of the Buddha statue inside "Wat Pho"...A kind Thai guy took this photo for us...*Hehes, Sawadee Kar!!
Look at this big "Gong" below!!! Laogong and I saw a kid trying to knock the "Gong" and sooo I followed-suit...The handle-thing that I picked up to knock on the "Gong" was heavy!!! I forget how they call this thing, sooo I called it "Gong"...*bleahs...
Laogong and I walked around "Wat Pho" and found this "Goddess of Mercy"...Seems to me, that Thai people do respect their gods very much cuz the statues are all in gold!! I admire their spirit of devoutness...
The next stop!!! "Wat Arun" Laogong and I approached the security-guard in "Wat Pho" and asked him for directions...The security-guard was very kind and even led us all the way to the habour whereby, we hafta take a boat to get to "Wat Arun"...Laogong bought a bottle of water before going to take the boat, the weather's really a pain in the neck...I swear I've not drank sooo much water in my entire life...Laogong and I purchased our tickets to take the boat and you know what?? It's only a mere 3bahts per person!! Change it back into SG dollars and it's only 0.16 cents!!! The journey's a short 5mins and we took pictures of ourselves whilst on board the boat...
Laogong posed with a twist!! =))
ME!! I like the breeze!! Sooo cooling!!
Us!!! Oops!! The boat-driver's behind us...Smile! (>,<) 
I took this picture of "Wat Arun" and I think this looks like those Tibetan temples...A magnificent view!!
Can you see my face clearly?? *Giggles, guess not huh...See? I told you "Wat Arun" looks like a Tibetan temple already...The designs and the stairs, looked akin...I had a hard time climbing up the long flight of stairs, Laogong was worried that I might fall and sooo he held my arm tightly...*Pouts..."Wat Arun" has a decade's old history on its name and it actually used to house monks but now it no longer houses monks and is listed as a tourists spot too...Laogong and I walked around the whole of "Wat Arun" under the scorching sun and then went off...
Laogong and I went to the souvenirs market area outside "Wat Arun" and window-shopped...Laogong managed to buy one of the wiring-tubes handmade motorcycle, it was me who spotted it first!!! =)) Laogong was sooo elated when he saw it and immediately bargained the price with the seller...Laogong bought the motorcycle at around 500 baht, if I'm not wrong at the end of the bargaining...Laogong and I proceeded to the harbour and took the next boat back, he bought more drinks but this time round, not water...Laogong liked the glass-bottled fizzy drinks and bought 2 bottles of different flavours...
Our next stop, was "MBK" (Mah Boon Krong)...Laogong and I hailed for a cab after walking out of the harbour and I felt asleep along the way...It was a long journey plus the air-condition, made me felt comfortable to do sooo...Poor Laogong, also sleepy but didn't dare nap cuz he's afraid that the driver might do scary stuffs...I was woken up by Laogong when we've finally reached our destination...
Laogong and I went inside "MBK" and shopped inside "Tokyu" (Thailand's departmental store)...I went to the ladies' undergarment section and saw a set of really sweet matching bra and panties...I bought the set right away, without second thoughts!! Laogong on the other hand bought a pair of swimming trunks cuz he wanted to go to the swimming pool at our hotel...
We also went to the cosmetics side but the prices are much higher then those in SG, sooo I didn't get anything...It's just not worthy...
Anyway, Laogong and I got outta "Tokyu" and went shopping around "MBK"...Laogong saw a ice-cream palour somewhere in "MBK" and bought one of the ice-creams...It was served upside-down to Laogong and he thought it was interesting...Had me took a picture with the ice-cream...*lols...I know in SG, we do have this as well but couldn't recall which place sells it...
We spent a good 2hours or sooo in "MBK", we managed to find spectacles stores selling contact lens and bought a pair each, Laogong's contact lens cracked in the side sooo he had no choice but to buy them...The contact lens in Thailand is cheap and pretty!! I would definitely buy more of them if I go there again...I bought a hoot for my brother from one of the shops and Laogong bought a pair of sunglasses from the everything 199 baht area...Laogong also bought a "Bilabong" tee and surf shorts, while I bought no clothes...=((
Actually, I saw this really awesome-looking pair of "Miss Sixty" jeans...Too expensive and the seller wouldn't cut down on the pricing sooo we left in disappointment...Still my regret, not buying...Laogong and I went to a tibits store and bought 2 big-bags full of Thailand tibits, most were meant for Laogong's colleagues and a few for Laogong's family and then we left hunting for food..
We went to the foodcourt in "MBK had our dinner there and it's also very high-class...I took a short clip of the foodcourt and it'll be uploaded at the end of the whole Thailand trip post...=))
It was around 8plus in the evening when Laogong and I finished our dinner, we decided to head back to the hotel and put down all of our stuffs before going to another place "Pat Phom"...It was then, when we happened to pass by a manicure palour filled with customers...I just had to get mine done too and immediately inquired on the price and time needed to finish up...Laogong was lil' fed up when I decided to waste an hour's time to do my manicure and pedicure but still waited for me patiently...
The prices go by which design the customers choose and whether they wanna add on crystals...I chose my designs from the wide range and quickly had the manicurist do it for me...One of them does my feet and another did my fingernails...In exactly an hour's time, they finished up and I totally loved it!! Pictures are posted below...The manicurists' skills are superb!! All including crystals add-on was done in a jiffy, Laogong said if we're bosses, we could hire them over...*Giggles...
Laogong and I cabbed back to the hotel and rest for a lil' while before heading out again...By then, we've already bought a couple of stuffs but still I hadn't managed to get any clothes for myself...Sooo Laogong and I decided to check out "Pat Phom" for my clothes...
"Pat Phom" is one of the night-markets which you can find in Bangkok, it only operates at night and plus it's where you can find fake LVs, and hot, hot, hot chicks!!! (for guys)...
Just take a look at this photo below, massage cum spa cum coffeeshop cum karaoke and blah...One stop, gives the man all he needs...Tons of pretty and sexy babes standing outside, a tat better than Geylang in SG...It was a total eye-opener for Laogong and me...I managed to buy a lovely top and a pair of shorts, for my third day in Bangkok...Pictures are posted below at end of post...
It's kinda amazing, night market in the middle and pubs plus discos by the side...Lotsa Thai guys approached Laogong and me, asking if we want to watch Tiger, Pussy, Lesbian...Whatever show they called it...Laogong and I politely declined cuz we're scared of being duped for our $$$...Laogong and I saw tons of long-legged babes either standing or dancing in only their undies and bikinis outside the pubs and also inside the discos...It's very opened and you could even see those girls dancing against the poles inside...HOT!!Laogong saw this cool traffic police bike parking by the roadside of "Pat Phom" and just had to take a photo of it...
One of the racing cars akin taxi...=)) I like their cool-looking cabs!! Speedsters...
Finally, another posting done...Whew! Below are the stuffs I bought on the second day!! Hoot for my brother, my lovely brassiere set and the set of clothes to be worn for my third day in Bangkok...
LOOK!!! MY prettily done-nails...Very cheap!! I spent only SG $20 plus $30 for all the crystals and nail arts...Superb painting skills looked just like those sticker ones on sale...
This is the end of my 2nd day spent in Bangkok, please wait patiently for the next few postings!! I know I've been seriously lagging behind in my posts but will try my best to do more...=)) Thanks sooo much for the supports!!!

Thailand Trip Part 1Alright, I pretty much gave up with the stupid photos-uploading stuff...Shall start posting first instead of putting up the pictures...It was a 5days, 4nights trip to Thailand and the destination was, Bangkok!!! This is not the first time that I've been to Thailand but definitely the first time that Laogong and I are travelling together, overseas!! So, was it for Laogong =P... Though, it was a short 5days trip, both Laogong and I really enjoyed ourselves fully and had plenty of fun through out...
Laogong and I went camera-hunting the last day before heading to Thailand, initially I thought of getting a disposable camera sooo Laogong and I went around searching for those at the basement floor of Jurong Point...Laogong was a lil' reluctant and sooo he decided that we're getting a digital camera instead of disposable ones...Laogong and I then went up to Courts and browsed through the varieties plus prices, after that we headed to Harvey Norman...The cameras at Harvey Norman are selling at cheaper prices than Courts, sooo Laogong and I decided to get our camera from there...We bought the Sony T50 in red (cuz I wanted RED!! =P), which came with 2 free Sony memory sticks...Laogong extended the warranty from 1 year to 3years, 2 of which is covered under Harvey Norman...*Tada ~~ A new digital camera for our trip!! =))
It was the first time, both Laogong and I try out something totally different...The air-tickets and accommodations were all booked online, we both did our respective research on Bangkok...I even bought along a Cleo notepad (written inside, all the must-visit-places!!) with me, but lost it during the trip =((...No tour for us, cuz we wanted to go free and easy!! Talk about roaming freely in a foreign country, *Giggles...
Laogong and I arrived at the budget terminal more than an hour earlier before the departure time, had our lunch at "Hans" then checked in after...The "DFS" in budget terminal is really very small as compared to terminal 1 and 2 but still, it's got all the necessities which one could possibly ask for...I did not get anything from there cuz I wanna do all my shopping in Bangkok!! *Bleahs...Laogong and I wandered around the small budget terminal before it's finally time to queue up before we board the plane...
There was quite a long queue when Laogong and I went in, silly us thought that we're not able to get the window seats but fortunately, the plane was big and not fully seated when we finally got inside...Whilst on board the plane before took off, we're told to buckle up, switch off all electronics and were taught the safety stuffs, blah, blah...Sooo, it was Goodbye!! to Singapore and Hello!! to Bangkok, we come!! =)) I'll never forget, that day was a sunny Sunday...Laogong and I unfasten our seat belts after the signal came off, we quickly took some pictures of ourselves and the fluffy clouds outside...Our enthusiasms wore off quickly, as both of us felt tired and fell asleep due to the heavy air pressure...
It was around 4pm when I woke up, the announcement by the flight captain then came on, to inform us the arrival time...Laogong woke up and tried to listen but to no avail, he's too blury...Shortly after, the air-stewardess handed us 2white cards to fill up, which is required for use when arriving at the airport for checking out...I played with the PSP for a short while, and then another announcement came on telling us to buckle up our seat belts and prepared for touch down...Had to switch off my PSP then after, I kept looking out the window, trying to get a view of the whole of Thailand...Thought of capturing the scenery but all electronics had to be switched off, sooo no choice...Laogong was still a lil' groggy after waking up, but also looked out the window after I told him to...Finally, the plane touched down at around 4.30pm (SG time) at the Suvarnabhumi International Airport...
Laogong and I waited for our turn to get our bags and then got out of the plane, both of us walked a long way before getting to the arrival gates...The airport's very new, and well kept and even had those escalators for lazy people like us to stop on and get carried to the other side...*Hees...I couldn't make out a correct pronunciation of the airport's name, Laogong took a picture of the name with his N80 and we continued walking to the arrival gates...(Just in case, you might wonder why we've took a picture of the name, it's because we'll have to go back to the same airport for our return flight, taking a picture of the name would remind us...))
(>,<) We got our passports done, white cards given and *VIOLA!! We're free and easy!! The whole airport didn't seemed big but in actual fact it is huge!!
Laogong and I decided to get a cab to our hotel, sooo both of us went looking for the taxi stands...We're both shocked at the long taxi stand queues when we found it, and in the end decided to queue at the one we thought seemed shorter...Our taxi as compared to the ones in Thailand, was a much simpler approach, you just get on the taxi and the meter runs, till you finally reach your desired destination...You pay the driver and you get off the taxi...The taxis in the Thailand (at the airport), would have people issuing you and the taxi driver a ticket each...On the ticket written, would be the driver's name and the car license plate number, in case you deem the driver's attitude bad and want to complain, the customer service hotline is also on the piece of ticket...Then the piece of ticket also goes on telling customers, that the tollway chargers are chargeable to them not the driver...blah, blah...Laogong and I didn't cared much, just got on the taxi and off we were to Baiyoke Sky Hotel...
The driver was a good one, drove very fast!! *Lols...Laogong kept looking at the speed meter when the driver drove, the driver actually sped up to more than 140km/hr!! Guess you wouldn't be able to survive at all, if it's this speed in SG huh? *Lols...Anyway, the taxis in Thailand are sooo akin to sport cars, sooo colorful and fast in speed...Laogong and I kinda enjoyed the ride though it's bumpy... It was around 6plus when we arrived at Baiyoke Sky Hotel...Both Laogong and I wasted no time at all, quickly took the lift to the lobby area and checked in, we're given 2key cards and our room was on the 48th floor...We went to our room, put down our bags and went out again...
As it was a Sunday, we decided to rush down to Chatuchap in a taxi again cuz it's only opened on weekends... Chatuchap was vast!!!!! The traffic was a disaster, people and cars vying for spaces to walk and go through...Laogong and I took a quick walk around and concentrated on finding the pets area, cuz I've been told by Angie that, the lil' ones there are very adorable!! I just had to see them for myself...Along the way, I kept looking at the stuffs, clothes and etc. selling...All sooo enticing!!!! Really made me kinda felt like grabbing the stuffs I want and run away but never do so la...*Bleahs...
Laogong and I sort of blended into the Thai society, nobody looked different from us...The Thai people looked almost the same like us, be it their complexions and skin tone...Most of them are very handsome and pretty too, we could spot no one wearing glasses nor having any skin problems cuz I guess they all have prefect eyesight (or maybe they all wore contact lens) and got super smooth baby skin...
Alright, Laogong and I got a lil' impatient after seeing quite of number of people carrying a cute pup in their arms...We both hurry our steps and finally got to the pets area, for walking like more than 20minutes...The whole place was full of pets, lesser on the outside stalls but tons of them inside the market...Laogong and I happened to find 2damn cute chihuahuas, really thought of buying one of them back!!!!! Laogong asked for the price and I converted the price to SG $, the price??? An amazing low price of $150bucks for a damn small and cute pup!!!!!! Seeing them really melts one's hearts!!!!! I lingered around the two itsy bitsy adorable pups for some time then Laogong asked me to walk further down with him, to see if there are more...Left quite reluctantly then did saw a few more pups but not as attractive as the ones I fancied, sooo Laogong and I decided to go back to the person selling the cutesy pies...
To our dismay, the person disappeared la!!!!!! It was only for like a split minute or sooo, we turned back and the person "poof" disappeared with the pups!!! *Pouts (-.-") Sobs, sobs...No more pups...I blamed Laogong for going further, letting the pups disappear with the seller...We had every intention to buy the cute pup!!!!!! Although, I know smuggling it back, is illegal la...*Lols... Laogong and I went inside the market and began searching for the seller but to no avail at last...The chihuahua was really very CUTE!!!!! Sooo tiny, I bet it could fit into a big drinking mug lor!!!!
Ping smsed me at that time, I told her about it and even she told me to buy it...*Shrugs... Seller gone, pup also gone...Really a disappointment to Laogong and me...Laogong tried to stop me from thinking about it and told me that even if we had bought it, chances of bringing it back is a zero...Rather let it be with the seller or be sold to another person living in Thailand than having to abandon it, if we couldn't manage to bring it back...
Sooo, we left the pets area sadly and shopped around the other parts of Chatuchap until it was their closing time...We got out and went to take the Skytrain (BTS) to Siam station...
Laogong and I went to Siam Paragon and have our dinner at the foodcourt in the basement, the foodcourt's ambience and cleanliness is really good...Bet you wouldn't wanna eat in the local SG foodcourts if you've been here...You have to buy a stored-valued card from the counters before you could go into the foodcourt and order your food, you can opt from the different values like 500baht of 1000baht...No need to pay first but rather you eat first then pay before leaving...The food was delicious and of good standard, they even serve the food to you...Laogong and I felt like eating at a restaurant with it's given standard of service and ambience...
After our dinner, we decided to walk back to the hotel...It was some distance away from Siam Paragon but reachable...Laogong and I took around 20minutes or sooo to reach the hotel, but didn't went up the moment we reached but went to take a look at the night market which is just opposite the hotel...We finally headed back around 11plus to rest and prepare for the second day...

A posting before I go for holidays!!!
Hmmm, it's been quite some time since my last post...SOoo, I'm back now!! Gonna do a post no matter what, cuz I'm gonna fly off to Thailand in less than a day's time!! Miss me lots, will ya guys?? hahahs....
Anyway, my precious Maomao (hamster) passed away on the 20th of February due to an unknown sickness...I did not tear but felt kinda shocked and sad that I've neglected Maomao, think I've concentrated too much on my work to have let him ended up in this state...Hope Maomao rest in peace...=)) Okay, enough bout' that already....Let's change to another topic...
Met up with Ping some time ago, around CNY...Had sushi buffet together with Ping and her Pengseng...Laogong did not join us cuz I had a quarrel with him and didn't told him where I was with them...Ping was rather worried for me, and told me to forgive him, tell him where I am...I was kinda reluctant at first but still smsed Laogong in the end and told him to come down...Still forgave Laogong in the end cuz I'm still in love with him very much...Anyway, all four of us went for a pool session together and spent around an hour or so, couple against couple...hahahs...It was fun playing with Ping, and we chatted sooo much....
Went over to the arcade after pool, and I played a game which requires you to grab sweets and earn points to hit the jackpot for a big prize...The big prize in this case, was a donald duck pillow...Laogong and Ping feed the machine lotsa $1 coins...Won lotsa candies and snacks, lastly efforts paid off as I finally strike JACKPOT!!! Actually, it ain't the first time that I've played that game just that, I enjoyed the feeling of hitting jackpot...*Giggles...Ping and I played some other games together as well, and had quite a good time at it...Laogong and I went off at around 7pm cuz we had to meet up with his cousin, Steven and his girlfriend...Agreed to go to Laogong's god-brother's (Jason) house for a CNY visit...I miss Ping...Hope to meet up with her again real soon...
Jason and his sons were at home when we visited him, I gave both his sons lotsa candies (those won from playing the game earlier on)...Jason's younger son is sooo adorable, his smile sooo cute tooo...I kept talking to Jason's younger son, and gave him lotsa candies to eat...Laogong and Steven chatted with Jason and it all ended around 9pm, cuz Steven and his girlfriend had to rush back home to accompany his family for a game of mahjong...Laogong and I headed down to Jurong Point, to buy tickets for a late-night movie...Jason called up Laogong and said to buy his and his wife's share...Laogong bought 4 tickets in total, to the movie "Ghost Rider" and then we went for a pool session again while waiting for Jason and his wife to come down and join us...
Laogong taught me quite a few pointers, to polish up my aiming skills in pool and I managed to improve a lil' somehow...Still, I couldn't win Laogong!! =(( Laogong praised and encouraged me, I really appreciated it even thou' I still get irritated when he starts telling me where and how to aim properly...Maybe I'm too overly-concentrated, hahahs...Jason and his wife came shortly, and watched us played a few more rounds...Laogong and I ended the session at around 11plus and all 4 of us went to the cinema to get our food and drinks for the movie...
"Ghost Rider" was a nice one, I think it's one movie worthy of the $$...The show ended pretty late, Jason and his wife went for supper after while Laogong and I headed home to rest...
Before I finish this post...
I'm flying off to THAILAND!!!!!!! Sooo excited I am, hope Laogong is too...Cuz this is our first-ever trip together overseas!! I will, of course with no doubts, miss all my good pals in SG during which I'm away and enjoying...Most of all, I'll miss my SISTA Ping!!!! Promised to take tons of pictures and buy lotsa goodies!!! Gonna shop till I really drop, man...*BLeahs...5days away from work, away from stress...Woooo hoooo!! The best part is, I get to spend some quality time together with Laogong!! =P We really need this time off, to relax and relish our love...
PS: MISS ME and my blog when I'm gone for these 5 days okies?? =)) Jesus, pls Bless Laogong and me a fruitful and SAFE trip!! Amen!
