Departmental Raya Gathering
|
|
Le Meridien, Kuala Lumpur
Friday, 3 November 2006
The Organising Committee had to perform and I was decreed to be Amy Mastura - with a red wig for added effect! Thank goodness I escaped wearing the original top they wanted me to wear - a very Liberace-esque top no less. Our choreographer deemed that what I had on was nice enough

Trip to Bangkok 2006
|
|
Returned to Bangkok for the 2nd time with pretty much the same agenda - shopping & tennis! This time, Marat Safin is playing, yesssss!!
Booked for the trip ages ago yet almost didn't go due to the coup. Finally got mom's greenlight to go like 18 hours before flight time so it was a frantic dash to sort things out like changing money and packing. Left for Bangkok on the 4th day after the coup - luckily nothing out of the ordinary happened. Came back from the new airport, Suvarnabhumi - on the official opening day too.
Huge airport! Unfortunately, it was narrow and long, hence I had to walk for ages that my feet hurt. No walkalator, of course. No signage to show which direction our gates were at too. And when we asked the people who worked there, of course, they didnt speak English, and didnt know
The new airport seemed nearer to town, or maybe our hotel is nearer to the main road leading to the airport, who knows. The airport was totally packed with locals checking out the airport and getting first day postage stamps and postcards postmarked with the airport's name. They bought them by the dozens so I had to wait for quite awhile before it was my turn to use the rubber stamps.
It was fasting month during our trip and our 2nd day in Thailand was the start of the fasting month. Fasting while at Jatujak Market under the hot sun was quite tough! Esp. as everyone else was having iced drinks and ice cream
When I first arrived in Bangkok last year, the one thing that immediately caught my eye was how Bangkok has a lot of shopping malls yet are still building new ones! The Siam Paragorn was under construction last year and now it's open. Went for a look and damn it is expensive! And of course, an even bigger mall (Central World) is under construction!!
This time round, everyone was wearing yellow shirts - turns out it's their King's 60th anniversary as a monarch so they wear yellow on Tuesdays - the day the King was born. Of course, they wear it on other days as well. And the King's 70th (iirc) bday is in Dec so they'll be wearing those yellow shirts till the end of the year. How I admire the Thais love for their King. If it was not for him, who knows what would've happened during the coup.
Planned to go to Ayuthaya this trip but didn't get round to it as we went to Pattaya. Can't say I like Pattaya that much but I thorougly enjoyed the watersports. Parasailing there was dirt cheap. Can't believe I still tried the ski thing while being tied to the boat, even tho I haven't been to gym for months. My arms & leg were killing me after 2 rounds. The banana boat which I went on next was a much better choice hehe. Best part being getting dumped in the water 3x
FINALLY tried Thai Massage after much cajoling from the other girls. I like it a lot actually.
Next year will definitely try to go to Ayuthaya, and if time permits - Chiengmai. If we dont get sidetracked with the shopping, of course!

Dewan Serbaguna Senayan
Jakarta
From Malaysia, 7 of us flew to Jakarta for Reno's wedding to Eri Dani. Reno & family comes so often to KL that it's been 10 yrs since I last visited her family at Jakarta. It was my first Minang wedding - very interesting. Their akad nikah is very menyayat hati - I have to admit, I was a bit shocked hehe. From the bride having to seek for forgiveness & permission in front of everyone to the ceramah agama being given by a most passionate/enthusiastic/crying preacher. Dang, if they had this in Msia, I'm positive there would be less divorces/affairs!
Dinner being served in stalls & cocktail styled is very different compared to Malaysia. Plus point is that there's lots of variety of food - from dim sum, to korean bbq, to chicken pie soup ala Dome Cafe etc unlike Malaysian weddings with their predictable rendang, dalca, ayam masak merah, sweet & sour prawns. The negative - having to stand! Luckily, there were a spot with tables with a small selection of the food for family members!!!
Another difference - couple & their parents didnt go down to eat first like in Msia. They actually stood to shake hands with 1000 guests (non stop) while we all ate. Dang!!! They eat only after they've finished shaking hands and taking pics with guest.
And it was nice to see the family members taking turns singing and dancing the pocho-pocho.
Now I wanna go to a Jawa/Sunda wedding hehe.
