Skyscrapers


IM BACK FROM THAILAND! I got so much to blog about, it was so amazing. I loved every minute of it. I want to live there. Take me back pleaseeeeeeee.
Day One: We left for Thailand at 10 in the morning and arrived there around 11. It was a short flight. There were other people on the tour with us as well, and by the end of the trip, we turned into really good friends! The monks were so fun to be around. Awesome people! We then went to eat. The place we went to was so pretty. The food was bomb as well. The first place we visited was a Thai temple. It was very strict on what you wear when you enter the temple. A lot of what people were wearing weren't acceptable, including myself, so most of us had to hire fabric to wrap over ourself. They were pretty funky! It was such a good experience. The temples were so pretty! The detail was out of this world awesome. After, we went and checked in at our hotel. We stayed at the Twin Towers. My brother thought it was the actual twin towers... Weirdo. Anyways, the hotel was awesome, but the rooms weren't that great. It was a 4 star hotel as well. The time that we were there, the hotel was holding a lot of events. There was a body building competition and some soccer exhibition (more details on that later). We all went to dinner at the tallest building in Thailand, the Baiyoke Sky Hotel. The view was breath taking! I still cant believe I got to see something so amazing. It looked like it was from some Tumblr post. So awesome. We had a buffet (most of the trip consisted of buffets). I can't explain to you how good the food was. I had a tear in my eye. Omg. Food went on and on. SO BOMB.

















































Day Two: On the second day, we checked out of that hotel and traveled from Bangkok to Pattaya. We then checked into another hotel, Crystal Resort And Spa. It was SO much nicer! Even though it was only 3 stars. Loved it there. Definitely going to stay there next time I'm back in Thailand. We then had a full day. It was very educational. Learned a lot about the Thai culture and history. Also, every time it was our time to eat, we would get to the restaurant and the food would already be ready for us. How magical. We went to visit the most popular flower garden in Pattaya. It was pretty. Saw real live tigers up close. They're all so gorgeous. It was pretty scary though. We then went to see an elephant show, which was very entertaining. It also looked very cruel. I hated myself for enjoying it as much as I did. The elephants were so pretty and big. They smelt a whole lot as well, but I didn't mind. It was a good experience. 
























Day Three: The next day was probably the one that I enjoyed most (activity wise). The plan for the morning was going to the beach, but my brother and I wanted to stay at the hotel to rest, so we did. It was pretty chilled, we had a MASSIVE breakfast (a buffet), which was awesome. In the afternoon, we went to this traditional Thai play. It was kind of like a broadway show, even though I haven't been to one yet, I see how it is in movies. It was full on good. There were elephants in the room, flames going off everywhere, people coming from the ceiling. SO AWESOME. I then was in a life threatening situation. I thought I lost my phone. I swear it was in my bag, but it turned out that it feel out and luckily, someone from out tour group picked it up and gave it back to me. So lucky. If it was some other Asian, they would have took it. We then went to a manwoman show. It was a good experience. I haven't seen so many in one place before. Most of them were so pretty! I can't believe some of them are guys. But some, you can fully tell. They also kept winking at my brother, which he was not happy about, I found it pretty amusing. 



























Day Four: I think this day was the most tiring. We walked around for the whole day at this amusement park place. They couldn't have picked a worse day to do it on, it was extremely hot. Luckily, the place had these water mist things that mists water on you while you walked. If they didn't have them, I think I would have died. After, we went around the zoo, but we were on the bus. Looking at animals and stuff. Was pretty boring, but meh. We went back to Bangkok and checked in our original hotel at the start. Okay, now for the interesting part. I was just sitting down, minding my own business, when a bunch of cute little boys came up to me and asked me for pictures. They were all so cute! Wanted to take each one of them home with me. We took pictures and talked for a while. They're from Brunei, which I have no idea where it is. Also, one of the team members is from Australia, Perth actually. Another was from England. Cute, I know. They all were very sweet and complemented me a lot. Which is always nice. Its like they've never seen a girl before. They were so interested in me. Which is something I'm not used too. I then saw a number of other soccer players. Some were actually pretty good looking. They just looked and whistled, didn't talk to me as much as my little Brunei boys. After dinner, I went shopping. It was so good. Everything was so cheap. Well out on the streets, but in the shopping centre, omg. All the named brands were there, Gucci, Prada, LV, Chanel, Versace, etc. It was such a beautiful sight. Sadly, I don't have that kind of money. But I will. One day, one day. When we got back to the hotel, I saw my boys again. They are so funny. Then, and then, one of them showed me what he got. I was so surprised. He got a picture of him and myself and put it on a necklace. It was by far the sweetest thing anyone has ever done for me. If he was older and lived in Australia, I wouldn't think twice about dating him. We talked for a while until their coach told them to go to bed. I saw them the next morning before I left, and he gave me the necklace. He's such a sweetheart.
































Day Five: This was our last day in Thailand and all we did was shop and ate. Pretty straight forward and simple. It was kind of out rest day from all the madness of the few other days.

Overall, this Thailand trip was off the hook good. I loved very second of it. I just want to go back and live there. For real.
