Be back in 4 days!

I'll be leaving for Bangkok tonight and will be back this Sunday.

It's the first time I'm going overseas without Bob. And being the super scatterbrain-ed me, I'm quite worried that I might forget to take my passport or my money or this and that. The 1st time I went Bangkok with Bob, I lost my passport. It's pure luck that I lost it after I went in to Bangkok customs, hence, I was able to fly back to Singapore (where I realised the loss) and came back with just my I/C.

The 3rd time I took a plane, to KL to meet Bob, who was there already, I lost my bloody way and got out through the domestic side of the airport, hence, didn't get my passport stamped. Blur eh? Well, that's me loh. That's why I'm very reliant on Bob whenever we went overseas.

I only get to travelled by plane once before I met Bob, as my family wasn't that well-to-do to afford trips overseas. And that one time was a return flight to Penang. So I think I can be excused for being such a suaku hor?

Anyway, this time, I'm travelling with Angela, Jaime and my dear Sis. It's my 4th time in Bangkok. I'm leaving Bob and Tara here. I'm gonna miss them SO.. SO.. much. Especially Tara, who has never left my side for a single night ever since she's born. But Bob said I should learn to let go (for being too attached to my girl), and learn to be independent (without him). He's right. I'm 27. It's time I learn.

It's also the first time I'm going there on a budget, as in budget airline and budget hotel. Bob, being someone who really enjoy life, he wouldn't even think of going on budget. Hence each time we went Bangkok, it's always 5 star hotel, Singapore Airlines or Thai Airway, and eat in a little too ex kind of restaurants. What can I say, I'm already spoilt by him. When I told him I'm taking Tiger and staying Asia, he frowned until his eyebrow almost knitted together! But I told him I can't always enjoy life right? Let me try a budget trip for once.

There's so many things I want to buy! My Botanics skincare, more bras and panties, Tara's clothes, Bob's stuff, lots of shoes and bags and (cross fingers) my clothes! Hope I can get clothes of my size there. A few of my colleagues and a friend had already tong bang me to buy some stuff for them. And I have packed my super big luggage bag already!

Be back in 4 days! Bangkok, here I come!!
