The Bangkok Experience
Lovely Bangkok
I never thought I would be able to reach “non-Philippine” soil this soon. Yes, I am in Bangkok. I’m in my hotel room writing this blog entry. I just had a really long bath, after a really long day. Hehe..
Day 1 in Bangkok
Reached Bangkok at around 4:30 pm, Bangkok time. Flight was a little bumpy, but generally it was fine. By the time we landed, I felt this really weird type of happiness. Finally, I was outside Philippine soil. It’s not that I wanted to leave Philippines; it’s just that, I was able to travel, for free. I had my traveler’s check converted to batt. Only there and then did I realize that Thai people look exactly like Filipinos. 100% similar! I felt as if I was still in Manila, only that people are speaking a different language. I finally had my batt, and I also had my personal cash converted to batt. A Batt bill was like a play money. Relatively wider than a peso bill.We arrived at the hotel at around 5:30 pm.
We checked in and went immediately to our respective hotel rooms. I was amazed by the beauty of my hotel room. It has a queen sized bed (looked back and counted the pillows), with 7 giant pillows and white comforter. The room comes with a flat screen TV, a mini-bar complete with chocolates and drinks, an office space, 2 phones, a centralized lighting and temperature control system, a huge sophisticated bathroom complete with a tub and a shower room with glass walls (mmm…) ,talk about a luxurious stay.At around 7:30 pm, we went out to meet some of our colleagues who are staying at a different hotel. We took an MRT and we were able to arrive there within minutes. I was able to meet my clients personally. These are the people I’ll be working with for as long as I am in my row. They were really a bunch of interesting personalities.
We decided to have dinner at a Thai restaurant, just a 10 minute walk from their hotel. Let me say I’m not a fan of spicy food, but because I’m in Thailand, I had no choice but to order Thai food. We ordered a feast, and guess what? I was able to finish my 100% spicy meal (with the help of an ice cold coke and 2 bottles of ice cold water)! Everything was extraordinarily delicious!We had desert at the Emporium Mall. I had, I forgot what its called, but it was just 15Batt, around 20 php.We went back to our hotel at around 11 pm. I was so tired. I took a quick shower and jumped off to bed. I had a really good sleep.
Day 2 in Bangkok
Woke up at around 7:30 am, BKK time, had a quick shower and off I went (didn’t have breakfast for we were running late). We met up with our colleagues and off we went to the P&G Bangkok Plant. It was a 1 hour trip from the hotel. It was my first time to actually see and be in a P&G plant. After proper security measures were done, we were finally allowed to get in the plant. It was a typical looking plant. Huge, smells like shampoo, lotsa people, lotsa boxes, lotsa liquids and all the other stuffs.
We started the training at around 10 am and finished the first half at around 12. After which, we had another festive lunch. Thai soup is really amazing. Everything tastes wonderful!We left the plant at around 5:30 pm, dropped off at Emporium and off we went to MBK shopping center. May I just say, MBK shopping center was a bargain heaven! So many shoes, bags, clothes and a lot lot more. Everything at very reasonable prices, relatively cheaper than how they are priced in the Philippines. I decided not to do my shopping yet for 2 hours are not enough. I need at least 5. I so want to share something, but I won’t. I still have to check if “someone” has access to this blog.
Day 3
woke up early for the training...the plant is an hour away from the city so we have to be really early. the training went well. as usual, we had a really good lunch. hehe...we did a plant tour and i saw how things are produced...its pretty amazing 'coz i had this picture in my mind of how an actual plant looks like, and i was not disappointed. it was amazing! i had industrial chemistry in higschool and we were taught of how processes are done in plants. the picture was successfully painted! it was great!
Day4
went home early for we were so tired. we had dinner at McDo (personally, i had enough pf lemon grass and all the other natural stuffs already that i decided to eat some not so natural stuffs). they have no rice, so i settled for a burger, go-big-time (take that go big-time literally!) fries and drinks and chicken nuggets!after a wonderful meal, we went back to the hotel, i checked my mail and did some work related stuffs. after an hour, my teammate and his friend dropped by and we went out. we went to this really beautiful place. its a bar in a hotel on the 52nd floor. what's amazing about it is that the area overlooks the entire Bangkok city. you'll see the buildings and the highways, it was so fetch!there's this area in the bar where the floor is made of glass and beneath it is water, so, youre like walking on water. there are tables and chairs which are made of glass nad it was just so scary to sit on them coz they might break, so i just took a picture...hehe..
Day 5
Had dinner at foodpark. before you go inside, you will be handed a card. there are food choices on the sides and its up to you to decide where you want to eat. it is comparable to a foodcourt, only posh. whenever you buy something, you just hand them the card and they will charge your food to that card, after you eat you present the card at the cashier and pay there. kewlness!went back to the hotel, for i had meeting at 10...and just like any other day, had to work till 3 am..
