I know it's been decades since #BKKoolkidz but today, I really feel like continuing from where I stop so, who's up for another update?? ^___^
11th January 2015
After the concert, we actually did not went back to our hotel but instead, made our way to oppars hotel hahahaha. So the 5 of us excluding the Kakaks (me, Diana, Haestar and her friends - they board the mini van together with us in the end, together with the Kakaks) walked all the way to S hotel (can't remember the name of the hotel but it started with S). We were contemplating if we should stay after midnight but since Diana's mum was all alone in the room, we decided that we'll leave by midnight even if SJ have yet to reach.
The boys were still not there and it was already midnight so we left the hotel, halfheartedly. The walk back to our place was a cold and windy one and both of us got reminded of our Seoul trip :( Once we were back, we found out that Diana's mum was fast asleep and since both of us were still wide awake, we decided to visit the Kakaks...with fruits for them hahahaha.
The next morning.....
Hotel slippers & mirror wefie!
I think I was quite hyper that morning, maybe due to all the post SS6BKK syndrome ><
Breakfast was good, as usual, and being the glutton I am, I had about 3 rounds before we headed off to our next destination and agenda for the day: S H O P P I N G.
We were so confident standing at the far end of the station only to realize that the train will only stop at the place where there are arrows on the ground -_- The security guard was probably judging us because we seemed so confident, talking, laughing and taking pictures of the station xD Typical tourist...
After realizing our mistake, we quickly went to the front and waited for the train to go to Platinum, one of Bangkok's heaven, I mean shopping mall! Since Kak Huda and her friend, Rachel, went for spa in the morning, Kak Afni joined us instead, which made her lead us the way since she came her before. She told us that she's VERY bad with directions and at first, I told her that she can't be as bad as me because everyone knows how bad I am with directions lol, but I was wrong, she's indeed very bad hahahaha. Despite getting off at the right stop, we kept on walking to and fro for 20 minutes just to find the Platinum building, only to realize that we actually went the opposite way xD Sigh, it's okay, I need to digest all the food from breakfast afterall!
Me and Diana were so excited when we saw this army(?) of Snoopy right outside Central World, ready to be photographed! The sun was blazing hot and thank goodness I brought my sunglasses out.
Welcome to the Universe of Happiness :D
The amount of failed and unglam shots we took!!
But I gotta say, the best photo award goes to....
Look at how my hair was defying gravity hahahahaha
Aww you cute Snoopy!!
No doubt #BKKoolkidz
All the shopping malls reminded me of Orchard, except that there are more malls here and how big the buildings are! Apparently, there weren't a lot of people here during the day, on a Sunday but I guess that this place will probably be packed at night, so it's good to avoid the crowd.
Diana thought that I took a picture of this girl and that she was posing for me when I actually wanted to capture the buildings behind her lmao
Continued our walk to Platinum which took us another 92105 years lol. Why is this place so huge????
Passed by food stalls selling all different kinds of street food by the streets which totally reminded me of Seoul :(
After what seemed like decades, we finally reached Platinum Fashion Mall.
This mall is seriously so huge okay! There are two buildings and Kak Afni told us to go to the 2nd one mainly because there sells more female clothes etc. I was quite excited because Bangkok is known as Shopping Heaven for reasons...
We only had about 1.5 hours to shop so we decided to shop separately. Plus I wanted to find clothes for my siblings, but I think I actually made a wrong move. I can never shop alone because guess who regretted not buying this long maroon colored dress which cost $20?! I know I know.... :( If there's Diana, maybe she'll like, "Eh buy, it's cheap" then I'll probably consider, and reconsider and in the end buy it. I kept on bargaining with the lady, thinking it was a bit expensive but when I told Kak Afni about the price, she was like, "Eh, not bad yknow" and I'm like :(((((( Sigh, next time, I should just GO FOR IT urghhh.
Spend most of the time leaving the shop with n o t h i n g so at the end of the day, I bought 2 Frozen pjs for my sister and 1 shirt for myself lol. I am very indecisive and the fact that I only have 1.5 hours of shopping is not helping either. Speed shopping is totally not my thing I guess D:
However, I find the clothes at Platinum similar to the ones at Bugis Street - small and totally 내 스타일 아니야 hahahah jkjk. But I still had fun exploring the mall, alone xD There was once when the mall played Avril Lavigne's What The Hell, which was our anthem for #BKKoolkidz and I totally found myself smiling and singing along to it.
After all the shopping, we finally met again to go to MBK for lunch. There's no way we're going to board the train so we decided to head towards the cab stand, until the tuk tuk drivers began to approach us and suggested we board their tuk tuk. Kak Afni asked them how much will it be from Platinum to MBK but they asked her how much was she willing to pay lol. She was quite irritated at first so in the end, the guy offered us 100 bhat (~ $4) and thought that it was pretty cheap, until Kak Huda told us that the cab fare would have costed the same too lol....
Since there were 6 of us, we had two tuk tuks!
Anyway, it was my 2nd time riding the tuk tuk, the first was during Cambodia trip with my poly mates so it was nice relieving those days. And it actually feels really good to have the wind blowing into our faces.
I was actually quite sad that the ride took about only 10 minutes hahaha.
Lunch at Yana's Restaurant together with Kak Huda and her friends! The first time Diana and I came across this restaurant in the internet, we laughed out loud because it reminded us of our friend, Liyana. We're like, "Eh jom gi Yana nye restaurant" hahahaha. Okay in case you don't know, Diana and I are lame like that lol.
Finally tried the authentic Thai Milk Tea which is superrrrr sweet that I had to wait for the ice to melt but I still like it!
Oh hi we met again! Just don't let the color deceive you. It may not look bright red like the ones we had at the seafood restaurant, but it is as spicy as the bright red tom yam!! Sighh, I miss you already....
This sweet and sour fish is mainly W O W.
How can I simply not fall in love with this Green Curry?! I love Thai food so much it hurts </3 I think this is like one of the best Green Curry I have ever tasted :Q____
Sliced chicken! D E L I C I O U S.
You probably have that one friend who tells you to not dig in first until all the food has arrived because she wants to take a picture of them and well, I am that one friend hahahaha ><
Food rating: 9/10
The Kakaks had to head back to the hotel early because they will be flying off that night itself, so I decided to board the cab together with them since I'm already done with my food. Thank you Kakaks for paying the food as well as the cab fare T___T I totally feel like a kid whenever I''m with them.
Waited for the rest to reach and then we took one last photo together! I still remember the night after our SS6BKK, we gathered up at the Kakaks room and decided to spazz, cry and laugh together about the concert. Even though it was a short catch up session, I really had a great time :')
After bidding farewell to the Kakaks and feeling alil bit sad because now it's just us, we decided to rest before our next shopping agenda with Fonn began!
There was a flea market going around at that time but since we were rushing to meet Fonn, we had to give it a miss :(
Met Fonn before we proceeded to the most awaited shopping place.....
(!!!!!)
Chatuchak is indeed THE shopping paradise in Bangkok! The street was as expected, crowded with tourists and we were totally amazed with how h u g e this place is. There were rows of never-ending stores, which we definitely can't spend just one day here shopping so imagine us, spending only a few hours here. Oh and you'll probably get lost in the middle of shopping because when you turn to the right or left, front or back, it will lead you to another store, so imagine how huge this place is! My aunt even told me not to hesitate and just buy when you see something nice at the first store because you'll never get to go back to the store again. At first I was like, how huge can this place be, until I really see it with my own eyes...
Oh and I finally get to try the famous coconut ice cream and coconut juice! Fonn insisted on paying for them, so sigh, thank you Fonn!!
Why you so delicious....
To our surprise, most of the shops closed earlier than usual and Fonn told us that it might be because of the rainy season :( In the end, we didn't get to shop a lot but compared to shopping at Platinum, this time, I bought more clothes and bags which are all worth the price!! =D I'm one happy shopper!
It was nearing 9pm by then and we were all famished from all the walks so we decided to have our dinner at a cafe! There are so many cafes here in Bangkok (another reason why I should come here again) There's this familiar looking Hello Kitty cafe which I've seen one in Seoul and a few other Korean cafes. Everything about Bangkok reminds me of Seoul, really.
In the end, we settled with pancakes....
I wanted to buy their Matcha pancake but to no avail, it was out of order :( So I bought apple crumble instead
while Diana and her mum shared a chocolate pancake (I can't remember what Fonn ordered though heh)
It was one filling dinner and the portion was quite huge too so it's worth for money! Food rating: 8/10!
Took this for the sake of my sister because big fan of Frozen xD
Went on our separate ways with Fonn because her mum went to fetch her while we walked back to our hotel... 2nd last night at Dusit Thani and we just don't feel like sleeping
So both of us went to explore the hotel despite the long day. I mean, how can you not explore a 5 star hotel right hahaha
The only souls that time lol
Lights out after midnight and my feet started to ache after all the shopping :(((
It still hadn't sink in my mind yet that I am going to attend SS6 so I didn't feel excited or had butterflies in my stomach because going-to-see-oppars-soon. It just felt like another day in Bangkok.
After bringing all the essentials needed for the concert - light stick, Kyu's At Gwanghwamun album, blue shades with KYU name on it (LOL) and most importantly, tickets(!!), we're off to meet the kakaks to wait for the mini van they hired. Thanks to them we don't need to worry about going to the concert venue and back to the hotel after the concert :)
Us in the mini van that really reminds me of a limousine because of it's "ceiling" and how it looks so posh!
While we were taking pictures and crazy videos, the driver actually switched on the colorful lights and it was so colorful it reminded me of the disco lol. Thankyu uncle for the lights though xD
More wefies! xP
It took about 45 minutes to get to the venue and I managed to caught a glimpse of the stadium from far and guess who started to feel excited and can't stop smiling?!
There were so many people around the concert venue - clad in SJ's shirt and queuing up for mosh pit because by the time we got there, it was already 4pm and the concert itself started at 6pm.
Thank goodness we were in the seating area so we did not have to worry about queuing and there is no way that I am going to go for mosh pit in a foreign country lol. Since we had some time to spare, we decided to quickly cross the streets because we were curious as to what those huge blue tents were and as we were approaching the tents,
I was in culture shock because I thought the fans selling merchandises along the streets was just it but...
They had tents for merchandises as well!? It felt like we were in a flea market or something! What a culture shock!!!! You'll never get to see this scene in Singapore because the authorities probably kicked you out and even fine you lol. Selling merchandises in Singapore around the concert venue was already hard enough, imagine this!
Isn't it amazing?
People were all selling fan merchandises - SJ, EXO, all other SM artists that I actually had to tell myself that there is no way am I going to spend ALL my money on this. NOPE hahaha. But!! Most of the merchandises are cheap so in the end, I got myself a Kyu fan for about $1-$3 I think?? Plus, I really wanted that fan because I had the same kind of Luhan fan I bought that time during TLPSG heh.
I really had a good time exploring the "Fan-made goods market"! Thai fans, you rock! :D
We still had some time to walk around before we started to queue for the seats so we went to take more pictures!
BCIWGHFOIWVKBWVWK GOOSEBUMPS. You don't get to see this huge banner outside SIS :P
One last group photo before we go our separate ways with the kakaks!
The ticket card is so cool please!!
At first, we were kindda lost because there were so many lines outside so we just joined the queue and luckily we're in the right one! They even placed chairs for the fans to sit at one of the entrance which I think for the mosh pits? Anyway, security was tight during admission so I'm glad I didn't bring any camera or ipad along, wait...I don't even own either one hahaha.
Look at the crowd behind us!!!
My insides were in the midst of exploding when I saw how close we were to the extended stage like JAKGDKBVCIASGVFWIBVCQK?!?!? AND THE STADIUM WAS SO HUGE?!?! IT WAS LIKE TWICE BIGGER THAN SIS?!?!
BFQAIKHGWIOBVWLKNVW TYPING INCOHERENT WORDS EXCUSE ME GUYS
ONE LAST WEFIE BEFORE THE CONCERT START!!!
Fans filling in the stadium...
Cue to on our lightsticks...
LIGHTS OUT AND LET ME INTRODUCE YOU TO MY ELF FAMILY, OUR SAPPHIRE BLUE OCEAN!!! (TYPING THIS WHILE SCREAMING SILENTLY)
(blur because we were shaking shafjksahgfk)
IT WAS CRAZY, I WENT CRAZY. YKNOW THAT FEELING YOU HAD WHEN YOU ATTEND CONCERTS?! YEAP, THAT FEELING CAME GUSHING IN AGAIN AND I SCREAMED MY LUNGS OFF LIKE AS IF THE CONCERT WAS COMING TO AN END WHEN IT WAS JUST ABOUT TO START.
THERE'S THIS POINT OF TIME WHEN MY HEAD STARTED TO SPIN BECAUSE I SCREAMED TOO LOUD AND DIANA WAS NOT HELPING EITHER BECAUSE WHEN EUNHAE CAME OUT, SHE SCREAMED HER LUNGS OFF MY LEFT EAR GOT BLOCKED HAHAHAIS.
*okay, calms self down....*
To summarise it all:
Super Shows never fail to impress me, and I'm so proud to be among the Sapphire Blue Ocean once again because when was the last time I been in one? SS5? Which was last 2 years??
From the goosebump moment I had during Too Many Beautiful Girls because the staff actually off all the lights, making our sapphire blue ocean more clear and the members asked all of us to sing "Na na na na na na" together which caused the stadium to echo is something I can never forget,
and the 111 project because it's been 111th days since SS6Seoul...
(skip to 1:42)
(not my video though)
to the successful fan projects during Don't Leave Me where the fans from the 3rd floor lighted up yellow light sticks with the word "Still Here" :')
(can't see the "Still" from my area cause it was difficult to capture it lol)
and during Island the fans held up a banner "We'll stay with SJ anywhere and anytime" :')
to the members being so close to us esp Kangin who even performed on the extended stage and I was just speechless cause I didn't expect him to be there (there were 4 fans who didn't came in the end so there were 4 empty seats and all of us moved in, making us nearer to the extended stage. Thankyu to whoever yguys are hahaha)
to one of the funniest moment in SS6 because during Evanescence, some of the members didn't went up the rising platform, causing the crowd to burst out laughing because dorky SJs are hilarious xD The song is supposed to be a ballad yknow but thanks to them, we couldn't feel the song hahaha.
to the saddest moment during SS6 because of Shindong. He was not present because of army so there was only his video, singing and what made me cried badly was when the stage went up.....with just a mike stand, instead of him being there.
Do you know how sad I was?!
Shindong is often one of the least popular member in SJ but he took part behind the scenes like all the planning for concert, music videos and yet, he still apologies to for not being good enough :( It's really heartbreaking seeing how he sang in the video and even though I didn't understand what he was singing (the translations were in Thai ><), it still made my heart ache, thus the breakdown :'( I was literally sobbing T_T
and basically, the highlight of the day...
to KYU ACKNOWLEDGING ME DURING FROM U BECAUSE I WAS WAVING HIS BANNER AND FAN KNFAWOIFHWOVN?! HE WAS WITH HIS YES-YES-I-AM-WAVING-AT-YOU-HAPPY? KIND OF FACE URGH YOU STUCK UP (BUT I STILL LIKE YOU URGH)
YES YOU BETTER WAVE AT ME BECAUSE I WAS THE ONE WHO STOOD UNDER THE COLD RAIN ON THE 28TH NOV FOR YOU BECAUSE OF YOUR MINI CONCERT AT EDAE YOU REMEMBER?! AND ALSO AFTER SHOW CHAMP YOU DECIDED TO BE A NINJA AND LEFT THE WHOLE LOT OF US WAITING FOR YOU UNDER THE COLD WEATHER BUT STILL I DIDN'T GET MAD TSK. SO YOU BETTER WAVE AT ME YOU BAD NAMJA!!
Hahaha joke.
Oh and guess who sang AT GWANGHWAMUN for his solo performance?!
It doesn't matter how many times I heard him sing that song live because I still get goosebumps! And I can't help but to remember our #OVERDUOSEoul trip :'(
Anyway, the concert ended with a BAM! and I found myself still in disbelief (WAKE UP DAYAH). My to-do list which one of it includes attending concerts in overseas (except Seoul & Japan because those two are on it's own) is finally ✓
Thankyu for making my night, SJ! But most importantly, thankyu Fonn (not in picture) for being the kindest soul and purchased the tickets for us. If it's not for you, we wouldn't be here! <3

IT WAS CRAZY, I WENT CRAZY. YKNOW THAT FEELING YOU HAD WHEN YOU ATTEND CONCERTS?! YEAP, THAT FEELING CAME GUSHING IN AGAIN AND I SCREAMED MY LUNGS OFF LIKE AS IF THE CONCERT WAS COMING TO AN END WHEN IT WAS JUST ABOUT TO START.
THERE'S THIS POINT OF TIME WHEN MY HEAD STARTED TO SPIN BECAUSE I SCREAMED TOO LOUD AND DIANA WAS NOT HELPING EITHER BECAUSE WHEN EUNHAE CAME OUT, SHE SCREAMED HER LUNGS OFF MY LEFT EAR GOT BLOCKED HAHAHAIS.
*okay, calms self down....*
To summarise it all:
Super Shows never fail to impress me, and I'm so proud to be among the Sapphire Blue Ocean once again because when was the last time I been in one? SS5? Which was last 2 years??
From the goosebump moment I had during Too Many Beautiful Girls because the staff actually off all the lights, making our sapphire blue ocean more clear and the members asked all of us to sing "Na na na na na na" together which caused the stadium to echo is something I can never forget,
and the 111 project because it's been 111th days since SS6Seoul...
(skip to 1:42)
(not my video though)
to the successful fan projects during Don't Leave Me where the fans from the 3rd floor lighted up yellow light sticks with the word "Still Here" :')
(can't see the "Still" from my area cause it was difficult to capture it lol)
and during Island the fans held up a banner "We'll stay with SJ anywhere and anytime" :')
to the members being so close to us esp Kangin who even performed on the extended stage and I was just speechless cause I didn't expect him to be there (there were 4 fans who didn't came in the end so there were 4 empty seats and all of us moved in, making us nearer to the extended stage. Thankyu to whoever yguys are hahaha)
to one of the funniest moment in SS6 because during Evanescence, some of the members didn't went up the rising platform, causing the crowd to burst out laughing because dorky SJs are hilarious xD The song is supposed to be a ballad yknow but thanks to them, we couldn't feel the song hahaha.
to the saddest moment during SS6 because of Shindong. He was not present because of army so there was only his video, singing and what made me cried badly was when the stage went up.....with just a mike stand, instead of him being there.
Do you know how sad I was?!
Shindong is often one of the least popular member in SJ but he took part behind the scenes like all the planning for concert, music videos and yet, he still apologies to for not being good enough :( It's really heartbreaking seeing how he sang in the video and even though I didn't understand what he was singing (the translations were in Thai ><), it still made my heart ache, thus the breakdown :'( I was literally sobbing T_T
and basically, the highlight of the day...
to KYU ACKNOWLEDGING ME DURING FROM U BECAUSE I WAS WAVING HIS BANNER AND FAN KNFAWOIFHWOVN?! HE WAS WITH HIS YES-YES-I-AM-WAVING-AT-YOU-HAPPY? KIND OF FACE URGH YOU STUCK UP (BUT I STILL LIKE YOU URGH)
YES YOU BETTER WAVE AT ME BECAUSE I WAS THE ONE WHO STOOD UNDER THE COLD RAIN ON THE 28TH NOV FOR YOU BECAUSE OF YOUR MINI CONCERT AT EDAE YOU REMEMBER?! AND ALSO AFTER SHOW CHAMP YOU DECIDED TO BE A NINJA AND LEFT THE WHOLE LOT OF US WAITING FOR YOU UNDER THE COLD WEATHER BUT STILL I DIDN'T GET MAD TSK. SO YOU BETTER WAVE AT ME YOU BAD NAMJA!!
Hahaha joke.
Oh and guess who sang AT GWANGHWAMUN for his solo performance?!
It doesn't matter how many times I heard him sing that song live because I still get goosebumps! And I can't help but to remember our #OVERDUOSEoul trip :'(
Anyway, the concert ended with a BAM! and I found myself still in disbelief (WAKE UP DAYAH). My to-do list which one of it includes attending concerts in overseas (except Seoul & Japan because those two are on it's own) is finally ✓
Thankyu for making my night, SJ! But most importantly, thankyu Fonn (not in picture) for being the kindest soul and purchased the tickets for us. If it's not for you, we wouldn't be here! <3
