NOTD: Peaches & Gold; Thai trip and haul

NOTD for the Thailand trip

Yes, lazy ass Peaches and Gold with a period HEART shape nail design. Enuff said.

Okay so I'm finally back from Thailand. The trip was incredibly fun with the bunches of nutcases I went with. I know there are people who wondered how can a lazy ass, unemployed for the pass 2 months me go on a holiday. No, I didn't rob the bank - not yet anyway, no, I didn't ask or take anything from my parents, friends, relatives whatever and no, I didn't take anything from my boyfriend - not as if I had one to take anything from. So it all boils down to one thing. Savings of course!

So since the entire lot of us were on a shoe string budget, thanks to Kern we manage to get a place to stay which is relatively clean and comfy for only 500baht per night. So 3 girls, Elisa, Kern and I stayed in the same room there was plenty of "Look what I bought", walking about in undies and gossips.

Went to visit some temples to pray and then we're off to a very spicy lunch, we went to Watsons just opposite the shop, the one I was busy eying even while eating lunch. Yes we have Watsons here in Malaysia too but it wasn't stocked with things that were as cool as the ones in Thailand. Whee.

Yes, I got junk then again, it depends on the definition of junk. One man's meat is another man's poison. What however the saying went. Not to bothered to remember now. So I got Sweet Princess's Choco Muffin and Strawberry Cheesecake soaps. Non edible. Unfortunately. Then to make sure the ants carry you away from your bed at night, I bought the Sweet Princess' Strawberry Cheesecake Body Butter. Which insect can resist you now?!

Imaginary conversation:

A: Ahh, do you think this will attract any attention?
E: Yes, namely hungry insects in the area
A: ARGH!

The body butter came in Cookies & Cream and also Banana. The Cookies & Cream were a little too sweet for my liking and who on earth wanna smell like a walking talking Banana? I mean, yea, isn't being yellow coloured bad enough? No offense to any Asians out there but as I've mentioned in my previous entries, I have yellow-ish skin tone as oppose to Kern and Elisa who has slightly pink-ish tone.

Then some Cherry Blossoms Toothpaste, I knew my sister would love this. Cherry Blossoms! Lastly, all I got was a box of White Rose facial tissues. I bought it only because it was only going for 190baht. So cheap. Yes, I am a sucker for cheap things.

Onwards ho! After more stopping for Elisa to buy snacks, then deserts and then more food and then... we managed to reach the mall. What mall, I don't remember. I think my feet was sending out S.O.S so I was distracted and then we saw. Boots! No no, not the shoe boots but the brand Boots, heaven has descended on us poor travellers. 3 maniacs rushing in to the shop and went Oh la la over the items. Best part was the buy 1 Free 1 part. Mayhem ensured. I'm hapy to report, I bought little despite it all.

We decided instead of everyone buying 2 of the same items, we could agree to share some of the items thus making it like a half price on the items we wanted. Instead of buying more make up, I opted for skincare instead. After all the travelling, my face was also on a breakout rampage. Which stress me even more and with more stress more pimples comes out to party. The circle must be stopped!

What I got was just a Botanics face toner, 2 moisturizers, mask for my poor face, the two hand creams are free gifts Kern gave me. A lavender hand cream. Yes I have a thing for soaps, creams and body butter. Gotta keep my skin soft right. Some random eyeshadow and also a bottle of foundation for my sister.

Note that we didn't empty the shelves as we would have liked to due to being on a shoe string budget and all of us only changed a small amount of Thai Baht each.

Later the night, we walked around literally in circles trying to find the Night Market only to find out that it has all closed. At 9pm! Closed! BOOOO! I wanted to buy the shoes that Elisa and Kern was raving about, guess I won't be getting it tonight. On a happier note, I bought a bag instead. Kern's bf, Yeow managed to hanggle the price for me so I'm thankful for that. In the end, I got it for 220 Baht.

We went clubbing the night before we left, we headed to Bar Berry and there may not have been any culture shock but it was interesting. I ended up sitting there oogling at butts and boobs. By the end of the night, I made up my mind. I'm gonna save up my money and get a boobie job. LOL!

The following morning, we all woke up late. Mad rush to head to the Morning Market and to get back before check out time. I still wanted the shoes!

Left to right: I loved both the colours so much *happy sigh*; Bought the wrong size for the white, careless mistake, so it's Pinky Doodle Doo's now

We managed to head over and finally bought the shoes, whee! I ended up with 3 pairs for the price of not even a pair in Penang. To some it may be ugly but these shoes are damned comfortable. My mom has been trying to gett me to wear flats for years! I've always came up with really funky excuses but this time, I'm more than happy to oblige.

I've liked heels because I disliked my not here and not there height of 164cm. I'm not tall but I'm not short also so I hated being stuck in between but with heels, I automaticly (as long as I have them on) is somewhat on the taller side. Still not as tall as JeanJean but tall enough to intimadate some other shorter people. Kidding! XD

In total amount spent for the Thailand trip, less than RM300 each including hotel. Imagine that, I actually headed somewhere and NOT buy (much) cosmetics!! I'm so proud of myself. Heee!

After the morning market, we headed over to the mall one last time to get whatever we wanted to get that we missed out and also for eyelash extension. I saw the shop the day before and was interested in their:

Hair in the eye - 250 Baht

Looks like someone has been using Babel Fish. But anyway they were trying to say eye lash extension. The regret of the day. Unknown to us then, the eyelashes were not only synthetic but feels really rough. How rough? Rough enough to poke any unfortunate soul's face that comes in contact with your eyelashes. You want pores? Come closer my dear *crackles*

Left to right: The difference between me putting on falsies and the eyelash extension.

Oh did I forgot to mention that instead of sticking individual lash on my lashes itself, they stuck the hair ON MY SKIN! On my skin! On my skin!On my skin! On my skin!On my skin! On my skin!On my skin! On my skin! *ahem*

It burned. It burned - BAD. Imagine me, the type to NOT cry when cutting onions or when somethings goes into my eyes, tearing up after the entire thing done.

*sigh* I can't pull them outside since they GLUED, glue, glue glue, glue, glue glue, glue, glue glue, glue, glue glueD, my real eyelashes to the fake one. *sniff* As if I didn't have enough eyelashes to begin with.

*&^%$#@!
