LET'S GO BROKE!

I was out all day and all night yesterday (and just about everyday, anyway) because it’s “Let’s Go Broke” day for me and my friends. It’s what we do once a month as a group to strengthen our bond *me, making faces* and enhance our self-indulgence with our already over-bearing attitudes. Ha! Lol.

What we do is – EACH of us can ONLY bring $1,000 and try to spend it within the day we’re all out together. Whoever spends the least money at the end of the day LOSES and buys dinner. Lame you say? Yeah, whatever -- you got better idea?

Anyway, if you’re thinking this is easy – NO IT’S NOT! Let me tell you whyFirst, we are carrying cash –something we are not used to. Secondly, credit cards are taken away for the day, so if we go to a shop that is “cards only”…we’re fucked! Thirdly, 32,000 Baht to spend within the day is NOT easy, why?We usually spend more than that! There – you made me say it. Take that!

Morgan, Tommy, Sucre, Sofia and me met up at Bar Italia in Gaysorn Plaza just before lunch yesterday. Usual chit-chat about nothings and about my blog. Yeah, we talk about my blog and we talk about YOU – our readers. But that’s another story. I’ll tell you all about it another time.

We dudes played a little trick on the babes – we voted 3 against 2 to be just like everybody else and go to Chatuchak Market on a Sunday! Sofia and Sucre turned pale and tried to protest, but hey, the council has decided. Chatuchak it is!

“Let me go to the pharmacy first and buy poison to kill myself!” Sofia bolted.

“I’ll go with you and let’s buy poison for two.” Sucre said blankly.

“C’mon guys! It would be fun. Just think how much stuff you can buy for 32,000 Baht in Chatuchak!” Morgan teased the poor babes.

Sofia stood up, hands on waist --“Let me tell you what, you asshole! First, it’s almost 1pm and we are too late! Do you know how many people go to Chatuchak?! Secondly, we are carrying too much cash! You moron! And thirdly you nitwit – I AM WEARING AIGNER TODAY! *the “Aigner” part echoed through the Middle East and stopped the bombing for 3 full minutes.*

We dudes are all having the day of our lives. *Whaddaf*ck?!* We’ve never seen Sofia this upset to the point of losing it in public! LOL. And Sucre, on her Munchu outfit -- forking her Kwanpen bag trying to make it bleed. LOL

This went on for hours! Five overly bearing Eurasians with the longest legs in SE Asia, didn’t know what to do with the drama at hand but munch on anything the waiter bring us.


So, to tame the Aigner-wearing Sofia and the Munchu-sporting Sucre, we just headed off to Siam Paragon and shopped our wits out.

And of course, we all lost the game –ended up using our cards after spending $1,000 in just 30 minutes. *sigh* But hey! I made mine last for at least 2 hours! Take that! Ha!

GAYSORN PLAZA, Bangkok


Hello everybody! Sofia again for Bi.S.E.A.N.
This blogging thing is fokkin trouble! I really don't understand why people even bother to do it. But since I'm doin this for my baby Pisanu, ok let's go along with it. Faen.

I was out shopping today for a new pair of shoes to commemorate Serbia's Eurovision triumph. And while I was out, I see myself thinking and scouting for anything interesting to post on this blog. Are all bloggers experiencing this? Even if we're not even sure if anyone or anything care about what we write here? I hate myself to even care and worry what things to blog here! Fede pis!

If this is the case, well, I think I'm going to turn this blog into a shopping blog. Because that's what I do best! And if my baby Pisanu isn't back in time to save this blog from me, it's his problem. As somebody commented, I am doing a great job messing this blog. Ja!

That's enough intro already...


This is Gaysorn Plaza, where the Republic of Eurasia (our group) mostly hang around and meet for afternoon teas. If you have been to Bangkok, I'm sure you've seen this one. If not, better get your ass over here and check it out.

Gaysorn Plaza is not for the office workers, sales people (unless they work here), call center moonies or alike. This is where you find the top of the line shops like Aigner, LOUIS VUITTON!, Gaultier, Zegna etc. This is also where top Thai designers showcase their fabulous creations!

Anybody who shows up with cash is frowned upon and people who ask the price is discreetly laughed at.

Gaysorn Plaza is located in Bangkok's posh shopping area called Rachaprasong. Where you can also find Central World Plaza, Siam Paragon, Siam Discovery, Erawan Plaza, etc. This is also where Thailand do it's New Year countdown like Times Square in New York.


And when you're here, don't forget to check out Bar Italia. Superb pasta dishes! Superb wine and this is where me and my group meet all the time. So if you wanna catch us, this is where you go and say hello.


I think this is enough for today. See you all later!




And by the way, for that girl who was asking if Pisanu is my boyfriend, YES! You got a problem with that bitch? Knep dig selv.
