things i learnt
1. sex sells. we wanted to go see the emerald buddha but it was closed and the taxi man immediately suggested we go have a turkish bath (but with girls, not young boys) instead. quite funny considering we wanted to go to a TEMPLE and he thought that sex services would be a good alternative.
we also spent 500b (if i remember correctly) each to watch naked women demonstrate their vaginal abilities such as pulling out strings of razor blades and popping balloons with blowdarts. unfortunately it did not interest me and i diverted my eyes from the scary sight whenever they turned towards my direction. the other girls seemed very intruiged though. i bet they were thinking "wow i didn't know that was possible!"
2. paintball should be renamed painball judging by the number of bruises we have. i got shot in the back of my head and it felt like a punch. other areas included neck, toe, tigh and mask. say ouch.
3. drivers in bangkok are very patient as they would all wait behind us whenever we stopped a taxi and negotiated a price. only on rare occasions did they sound their horn. i guess they had no other choice but to be patient to be able to survive the crazy traffic jams that happen everyday, otherwise they would just die in their cars.
4. on the first night we went to a pub/club where there was a free flow of whiskey, vodka and gin because it was happy hour. so basically we had free drinks for about 45 minutes with no entrance fee, BUT i only had one drink. this can only mean that my drinking days are over. gone for good, perhaps. i don't even enjoy feeling tipsy anymore. if i was there a year ago, i'd probably have been quite drunk.
