☼ The Dreamer's Diary ☼

It was Cheryl's birthday yesterday. To celebrate her birthday, close friends and a some classmates gathered up together for karaoke at The Garden's Mall. The entrance session starts at 1pm but we arrived early at 12pm. To waste some time we all went to the closest McDonald's fast food chain downstairs in the mall. Take a look at the photos below how Sam enjoyed his Sundae cone.

And so we all went all the way upstairs back for the karaoke. Without blabbering much describing what happened during the karaoke, here comes the photos with a few captions below. I somewhat agree that "A picture is worth a thousand words"... LOL

It was really funny to see everyone scrambling out of the hall to go home just like what the chickens did in the movie "Chicken Run" when the exam ended at 4pm...LOL... I headed to MPH store alone at M.V. after having some tea and snacks with Yoke Fung at 5pm.

I thought I can actually buy a book to kill my time for this semester break once I reach there but the prices of most books are too expensive. Most of the language books there are priced highly are Mandarin, Japanese and Thai. I do understand that the language books for Mandarin and Japanese are being priced at higher cost because they are gaining popularity to be spoken worldwide but THAI???

Here is the title of the book with its prices in Baht and our currency, Dollar below:


"Thai for Intermediate Learners - by Benjawan Poomsan Becker" at only 299 Baht in Thailand but $57 here!!!

I still can't believe my eyes that a book for learning Thai can be that expensive in the country I live. It is not even logical for high pricing a book imported from Thailand as the country is our neighboring country. I think local people would really have to rush into Krungthep as a trip for buying it... LOL

Anyways, I really don't have an exact idea how to spend my holidays. What are your suggestions? What are your plans then?

I'm happy because I've finally had bought myself Christmas presents for myself yesterday which are a black formal shirt and a pair of black formal pants at SEED Boutique with my friend, Lawrence because of Christmas sales. They're both come out with 50% discount which makes me really delighted when I looked at the discount signs at the boutique...

Why delighted? That's because the apparels were about $110 each, thus total will be $220 as original price but after the discount, they've become only $55 each, total price deducted to be $110 which makes me think they're really affordable... not bad eh?

I'm not buying anything for New Year but I wonder what I should buy myself next for upcoming Chinese New Year...
