Sawadee Phuket

The stressful week ended with a nice relaxing holiday. It should've been a holiday mood week where I snake through the entire 5 days daydreaming about what to do on my trip .. but ended up nearly killing myself with adrenaline rush of tight deadlines and blood rushing from the slow-incompetent people whom are prolly on the holiday mood.

But it was all great that we got to unwind all that stress by chilling for the 3 days without interruption from work .. just lazing and chilling. My phone didn't even died out on me .. and it's the 4th day and I still have half of my battery power. No one called. Felt forgotten somehow. *Hehe*

Was kinda worried that the trip would sucked coz the reviews I've gotten from my friends were B.O.R.I.N.G. and also that the monsoon was not over yet. But if it's all the hype that you wanna get, Phuket ain't the place for ya. Unless you MEN think that hooking up and getting laid by Thai chicks is "happening". If and only IF they are HOT .. unfortunately NOT! I still don't get it .. these farangs pay like hundreds and spend hours just to fly all the way to Phuket just to get hooked up with these "chicks". They could prolly get a hotter chick down at their local strip club. We caught sight of one farang at our hotel with his entourage of 4 chicks. He Da Man !

Not like these farangs have a choice though .. the only jaw-dropping chicks I saw was the lady-boys at the Simons Caberet show and those on the Thai channel. I was so amazed by their beauty and body. Makes you wanna get surgery done immediately without any hesitations.

Basically there's nothing really much to do there .. but just relax. Stay in a good hotel if possible .. BOOK EARLY online and you'll get a amazing deal. Which we did .. for the Hilton Arcadia. They were nice enough to give us a complimentary 60-minute massage for 2 .. which would cost us like RM200+ each. And it's not those unsincere free stuff they give out. The resort is huge .. you can forget about Patong if you're there. It's basically made up of pools .. there's like 4 pools in different wings there .. so you can swim all you want .. with waiters walking around offering you nice cold skewered fruits to cool off the heat.

Despite the monsoon season, where it rained for 3 days .. thankfully, it rained at the correct timing. So we still got to enjoy the sun and the beach. Didn't get my sexy-latina tan though coz sun bathing at 1pm is ridiculous .. it's roasting yourself! BigOne got his sexy-latina tan though .. but lazing under the umbrella (ella ella eh eh eh...) still got me slightly tanned. Always loving the beach .. lazing and falling asleep to the sounds of the waves and the sea breeze. Funny enough, I thought of Geline, and imagined how would she grumble about the sun and heat. *tee hee hee*



It was all good rest .. enjoying our holiday like how it should be.

Recommendations to you peeps whom are planning to go there:
  1. Stay in a good hotel .. it's worth paying for. Get good deals at http://www.asiarooms.com/ or http://www.wotif.com/
  2. Book your tix in advance .. http://www.zuji.com/ offers good package deals if you book early - you get better flights.
  3. Phuket is one hell of an expensive place. Nothing like Bangkok. They're all out to chop you .. but you don't have a choice though in this overrated, overcommercialized, overtourist destination. Taxi charges are ridiculously expensive at 300-400 baht .. just from Karon to Patong!!! Even Burger King costs 50% more! If you're a shopper, you'll know better enough not to get anything off the streets. So .. change more cash !

Some pics from the girls outing. Geline .. you missed it again.

Brought me Mamamia along .. and now she's craving for more. It's a sign that you're old when you're partying with your mom with your friends like we're all from the same age category! Arrgghhhhh ~~~ *stress* On the other hand .. my mom's cool huh!

The cam-whores .. BigOne will be so turned-off to see his girl behaving like this. It just annoys him .. *hehe*

It's only been 4 days .. and my facebook is swoomed!

SisEsh was on facebook for the whole of Saturday morning. It's an addiction.

Seems like everyone's bored over the weekend huh!
