Day 6 of BKK and the Journey Home

Last full day in BKK. Guys' finals against Msia was yestereday night. Went to do some wrapping up shopping at MBK.


Happy as a skipping cow..










While in the cab to MBK, Xiu showed us that she was well prepared for some wild fun in BKK..








Hmmmm....

Ta-da!! Happy insect- repellent stickers (that really came in handy when we were near the wilderness while at the stadium)










We split up, Qiao and me went to Siam Center to check out some stuff while Xiu went to gallivant at MBK

And we thought we found the perfect Xmas gift for Jun zi..











And we met back together for lunch..had the spiciest noodles :s But the pork neck is good !













After that we took the cab straight to the stadium. It was quite an adventure by itself, given that the driver couldn't read the sms (eye sight bad I guess...and we still dared to take his car..) Had to call Kaew who told him what we wanted to go. And it was an hour's drive subsequently, through god-knows-what route he took.

Took photo of the driver's license in case he drive us to sell..and I will throw the phone out of the cab, if anybody discovers the phone..well..at least can trace..
well, at least I was prepared and not like the 3 behind? started sleeping once on the cab?!?一点防范意识都没有..tsk..:p




Anyway we arrived safe and sound :D


The start of the guys' finals. We lost, by a very big margin.







All I can say is, after the last few days, can really see the widening gap between us and Msia. It has only been 6 years and the difference is so great. 心痛。Sometimes I wonder..what if I or the few of us (who went to watch and also those who didn't) had stayed and played..but then it was my choice who decided not to continue after weighing all the options.

The flag raising and prize giving ceremony.































After the ceremony, as we were waiting for the bus (and swatting kamikaze wilderness mozzies..that was when Xiu's happy condom-lookalike-repellent-stickers came in handy), we saw Patrapong!(the one who gave CK an apple in 1997 or 1998 during the Junior Asia Cup..CK remember???) Actually his real name is Chatnarong, and he came to Singapore to play during the Junior Asia Cup then (oh...I remember the cute Korean No 16! :p). He actually remembered us by name...and I can only remember that he was the-one-who-gave-CK-the-apple-guy :p I should have taken photograph together with him.
Well, going home today.
Shopping - $XXX (Shall not remind myself in case heartache..go figure..)
Food - $X
Massage - $X/4
Memories from watching the games at the side - Priceless
I'm so glad 12 Dec has came..back to reality liao..
