South East Asia's Biggest Christmas Tree!!

Look's like I made a mistake assuming I won't see some christmas decorations as glamorous as I've always seen in Manila. :P But look what I've found...Biggest Christmas Tree in SEA!! Hahahaha...
Well, it happens to be here specifically in Central World mall! It was great that I already have picture of it. ;) take a look Sorry for not having a quality photo shoot. Though I’m planning to take more pictures this time using my digital camera since the previous pixs were taken using my mobile phone. I’ll post the link once I already got the new pictures!!

Starbucks -Christmas Traditions

Hey you've got it right its all about the planner! At first, I thought I could not collect it anymore because it's only for starbucks phils. Well what a stupid thought! Since starbucks has branches all over the entire planet and why would not have the same tradition here as well. I also had a second thought collecting this one again since it will cost too much money and much caffeine in my body. And besides I found a very nice planner here in Bangkok for only 550 Baht. But then I realized I could be more satisfied owning the tradition planner and what’s more I have it last year why not continue for this year.

About the completion of the stickers, as of today 9 more stickers to go…Hehehehe…That’s too fast you know given that I already started it only last Saturday. I can’t wait to complete the 20 stickers just for me to hand over that planner and start noting my schedule for the next coming year!!! =) btw, Thanks for Anthony for helping me gripping half of the caffeine! :P

Edited 11-28-06 7:00 PM; 7 stickers to go!! ;p
11-29-06 9:00 AM;5 stickers to go!!
11-30-06 1:00 PM; 3 stickers to go!! =)

This is for my one and only...

Beautiful Days
Kyla
[refrain]
I see beautiful days with youI feel beautiful ways of loving you
You’ve touched my heart so deeply
And I can’t thank God enough
For all the beautiful days with you
I feel beautiful ways of loving you
Everything is just so wonderful
Every little thing is just so beautiful
When I spend it with you
You came along
In an unexpected time
It was so divine
Knowing you are mine
It feels so right
When I look into your eyes
I never knew that love
Could make me feel this wayI can’t wait for the day
When I can truly say
[repeat refrain]
YouWoh, oh woh
You
With you I felt fine
So right
I’ve sang so many songs in stages
With thousands of them watching me
But you’re here with me now
And I sing this song to you
To you, baby
Just for you
Just for you
[repeat refrain]
You

Christmas is coming.....

Few weeks from now and it's Christmas time! Holiday season is really fast approaching.. I miss the way filipinos celebrate this wonderful season. In the Philippines by this month I would see christmas decorations all over the streets and each home as well. And of course gift giving won't be miss out. Well, since I'm here in a buddhist country I should not expect to be that way. Buddhist Thai peeps dont celebrate christmas day. But good thing is I've seen in some department stores selling christmas decorations. =) I guess that is for those catholic thai and expats like me who are living here.

For now I'm glad that my friend arts uploaded his christmas songs for me to download and listen with. ;) That would be my simple way to start welcoming the much awaited season...

Stress..gives me animalistic idea

I feel so much stress this week....I'm wondering on what way I could release this unlikely feeling! There's an idea of having pet like puppy.. hmmm.. Still I know having pet is not easy at all. It could be fun at first then later on I'll be piss off with it. Most especially in cleaning *dog shit*. Isn't it I'm really bad here?? And sadly because the reason why I like owning pet is not because I love too.. I guess I should think more about this doggie idea. ;)

weekend discovery

So far these are the places we visited here in BKK.

- The Grand Place - this is the place where I was able to see different temples and the Emerald Buddha. Anthony and I went there by riding a Boat taxi. Yeah! here in Thailand they also use Boat as means of transportation. It cost us 26 Baht each for a round trip. Not bad at all since we passed along more than 6 boat piers to reach our destination.

- Lumpini Night Bazaar - When I saw this place I was astonished by different Thailand unique souvenirs. I thought this is the best place for gift shopping since the price there is cheaper compare to the Mall. The idea is there until I learn about Chatuchak/ JJ Market!

- JJ Market - One of the biggest weekend markets in the world! This place is really breathtaking for me and excellent place to shop. They offer bargain price for both wholesale and retail in all items that you will see. Now I’m really tempted to export such those in the Philippines and make a little income from it. Well I guess I need to look for a business partner who resides in the Phils. Anyone??? Hehehe…

- Pantip Plaza - The Gilmore(New Manila,QC) version here in Bangkok. If you are into gadgets and IT stuff … this place is a must visit for you. and it offers a very reasonable price..;)

We usually spend our weekend in JJ market and in our favorite malls. We still feel lazy to explore more places in and outside Bangkok. Not only for being stingy in money but also we still having fun with our recently discovered place and malls.

About shopping mall, so far we our somewhat addicted in the Siam Paragon Mall. I feel like in heaven every time I go to its food hall which located in the lower ground. There are a lot of food choices and fancy restaurant to eat. That could be the possible reason why I gained weight.. Oh well that’s not the topic… :P

Btw, this is also the mall where you can find the Ocean World here in Bangkok. Well, we still not visited the place yet because of its entrance fee of 400 baht! How stingy!!!!! I rather spend that money in buying food…Just kidding! Maybe for some time we’ll do.

Multiply Site

Not only just another look a like friendster site but this site gives me more convenience to upload most of my pictures. Having friendster account is really nice but when it comes to uploading pictures it definitely sucks! That’s why I continue to use my multiply site for creating photo album for my different adventure. ;) Here you go… http://cattei.multiply.com


As you will notice I mispelled my name when I created that multiply account. hehehe..
Well, I keep on dreaming of seeing this site contains picture of me and my honey's world tour adventure (how costly…). Who knows?? =)

Living a better life.. =)

My lifestyle here in Bangkok is totally different with my lifestyle in the Philippines. Aside from living together with Anthony I have a new set of responsibility not only for myself but for my dear as well. I hate to admit that I was not given a talent in cooking. But I believe it could be taking care of by practicing and to put interest with it. Well sad to say that until now I cant still find my interest in cooking. All I know is to eat and eat.... =( This gives me little insecurity then. Good thing/maybe also a bad thing, is here in Bangkok its hard to find ingredients for filipino dishes and this gives me excuse..shhhhh....

It terms of living lifestyle it do have improvement since now I'm always sleeping with an aircondition room and taking a shower bath (hot/cold) and not "Tabo" bath anymore. We also have plan buying our much awaited dream...a home theatre system and laptop for both of us.
Thats all for now and I dont want to think anymore another things to buy because after we both those items I really want to have a world tour..hehehehe..;) It would be definitely needs a lot of satangs.


Wish is Granted

Well, it's been so long that I haven’t been posting here. I really like to maintain my web blog though I find it hard to visit everyday this site just to say what I feel and what is happening due to my very busy mind. That is why I usually end up stating my day to day endeavors in my personal starbucks planner.

Anyway enough with my excuses! and I have a very important to say which is "My wish was totally granted” And definitely God is really Great because He answered my prayers by giving Anthony a chance to also work here in Bangkok. It was amazing that Anthony and I achieved one of our goals this year which is to get a job outside Philippines, at the same time obtain a well big step in terms of compensation.

Although this granted wish also gave Anthony a hard time to decide whether to pursue his application with Microsoft Phils or to accept the offer here in Bangkok. Not only that, this would definitely change his career path because job in Bangkok totally in focus to software development. But then he decided to work here and to be with me. J For sure he will surely miss giving event talk about MS products that he usually does in the Philippines. Well there is MS Thailand….=)
