Bikinication: Project Phuket Part 1

Partner in crime and i finally went for our bikinication get-away and we went to Phuket for 4 days! 

 She managed to find really cheap MAS flight tickets (rm232 return tickets to Phuket). Definitely cheaper than going back to Kuching. 

 The flight to Phuket from KLIA took us about 1 hour plus.
Our refreshment comes in cute blue box
The taxi from airport to where we stayed cost us 740 baht (about rm74) per car and our hotel is just AMAZING. 

Alfresco Phuket Hotel has wonderful service, super friendly staff, clean room, free wifi, complimentary drinking water replenished everyday and the most awesome thing is they have a rooftop infinity pool. 

Well, you know my obsession with swimming pools. 

They also provided free shuttle service to town and beach and just next to the hotel is a 24 hour mart. We booked via Agoda and got RM208 (RM104/pax) for 3 nights. Super cheap and it's worth every penny. 
Clean, spacious and gotta love the red, white and brown combination
Exploring what the hotel has to offer. the rooftop area is amazing. I love the carpet grass.
I absolutely love these lounging chairs..and the pool of course.
Day 1 - We explored the hotel surrounding area. As Patong is quite small, you can walk to Patong town centre.

 kalau rajin la.It'll take you about 15-20 minutes. 

 We explored Patong town at night and partied in Bangla Road. Took a tuk-tuk back to hotel and it's 200 baht. If you are a lone traveler, there is always the motorbike taxi, 100 baht. 
The famous Bangla Road, the red light district. 

We watched a tiger show just for the heck of it. Never knew people can do so much with their vjayjay until we came to Phuket (writing, blowing a whistle, playing pingpong (!), hiding strings of razor blade and pipe blowing). 

Be careful of those promoting pingpong show though. They say it's free entry and only pay for your drinks but the drinks were so EXPENSIVE. 

Can you imagine 700 baht (rm70) for a fruit juice? and the girls were not that pretty anyway. So we went to this club and paid 100 baht for a beer. The girls were pretty and the music was good. 
Hunks everywhere.
Food can be quite expensive. If you are a small eater like us, it's best to share. A plate of fried rice can cost you about 80 baht, the seafood tomyam was 150 baht. but it was gggoooooddd :)
So we went to a gay bar just for the fun of it. Not for the faint-hearted. Emm i would say it's not something i would do again. hahaha. I would if they know how to dance. Some of them were not gay though but they do things for money. But otherwise, they were really friendly.

Can you believe one of them took his dick (it was huge), stroked it and asked if I want to take to take his service?

No thanks. hihi

Day 2- We went to Patong Top Shopping and hang out by the beach. Got back early at night as we had to get up early for our island hopping to Phi Phi Island the next day. So no more partying tonight. 
That's the free shuttle. The driver is also the hotel's cook. talk about multi-tasking...
People in shorts and bikini. a common sight :)
Choices choices choices. I only bring enough money for food and transport so didn't do any shopping. Next time saya mau borong bikini! I didn't even get the I Love Phuket T shirt.
Bikini heaven! Anything you buy in Phuket, you'll have to bargain. A t-shirt that's 150 baht, they can mark it up to 300 baht. I bargained a bikini for 200 baht (RM20, super cheap!) but i didn't buy it though. Can you imagine the same bikini, they sell it at rm60 in Malaysia? The more you buy, the cheaper you can bargain. Maybe i should do an online bikini business.
Patong beach. These people are amazing. Berjemur tengah hari buta. Saya kalau keluar sekejap ja pun sudah hitam, ini kan pula kalau berjemur time macam ni.
Phuket was heavily affected by the 2004 tsunami
Cold beer on a hot day. People say Chang beer was smooth. Never knew what people meant by "smooth" and i'm not really a fan of beer but Chang is good!


The waves were SUPER strong. Tak payah la fefeeling berenang. Silap hari bulan naik ke darat bogel, habis tercabut bikini.
View from hotel at night.
The water was warm and inviting
It was almost full moon and the view from up here was amazing.
Our 2nd meal. The stir-fried shrimp was superb.
See what i meant by food can really be expensive. Not sure about other parts of Thailand but here in Phuket, it's probably tourist price.

Phuket is a relatively save place to travel alone. The people are friendly and helpful. As it is a tourist place, most of them speak English. But like many other tourist place, things can be "tourist-priced" and it seems like everyone is trying to sell you something, some are quite persistent but most are fine when you said no.

Mat Salleh Boyfriend Is Better?

  I have known a lot of ladies who wanted a mat salleh/white/foreigner boyfriend. My partner-in-crime repeatedly chant this "scruffy look, biceps and tattoos are must." ahem.  Sometimes it's like you strike a lottery if you managed to get a white boyfriend. It's like a trophy.  Are local men not good enough? Where are all the good local man anyway? Why these girls wanted a foreign man?  They said mat salleh are more romantic, respectful of woman and treat them as an equal. They are also more thoughtful and are generous with their public display of affection.  My aunt married a British. On their 30th wedding anniversary, her husband got up early and bought her a bouquet of flower and a card. Such a simple gesture but not many man can do that. Even after 30 years of marriage, they still hold hands when they walked.  I'm not saying local man are not good enough. There are still good ones around. I think it all depends on how they were brought u...

Sarawakians and Gardenia's bun obsession

Sarawakians And Gardenia's Bun Obsession Have you observed in the airport shop, people carrying baskets and plastics full of Gardenia's bread/buns?  Or there's no more space left for your luggage in the overhead compartment of the airplane because it is stuffed with buns? Tiada space di overhead compartment itu memang mengundang kemarahan. These people are most definitely Sarawakians (my friends claimed Sabahans do that too).  I don't know who started it but the obsession with Gardenia buns happened because there is no Gardenia in Sarawak. Why oh why.  It's not like there are no good buns or bakeries in Sarawak. It's just that Gardenia has this sense of awe to it.  like "These are not sold in Kuching you know."  or "Bapak kamek beli tok dari KL nun, kitak tek ada?"  or something like that...It's like a souvenir from KL. It's similar to the obsession of Peninsular Malaysians with Kek Lapis.  Anyway, some of their bre...

Can Men and Women Be "Just Friends"?

I have always thought men and women can be just friends. Totally platonic. Apparently my male friends did not think so. And few happenings have made me questioned what i thought. In our daily lives, non-romantic friendships between males and females are not only possible, but common—men and women live, work, and play side-by-side, and generally seem to be able to avoid spontaneously sleeping together or fall in love with each other. However, the possibility remains that this apparently platonic relationship is merely a put-up-show, something to cover up the romantic feelings and sexual attraction bubbling just beneath the surface. People may think they are capable of being “just friends” with members of the opposite sex, but the opportunity (or perceived opportunity) for “romance” is often lurking just around the corner, waiting to pounce at the most inopportune moment. Study conducted on 88 undergrad students found that men were much more attracted to their female frien...
