I know its been a while since i've wrote on here, i got kinda lazy on my last day and when i got home. But now tis December 24th, Christmas Eve and i'm bored at work because there is too much snow for people to come in and do business. So anyways i'm gonna finish this up.
So i checked into the Rambiturri Inn at 6am. I got a room on the 3rd floor which kinda sucks when your lugging around heavy stuff, no big deal tho. I had a nap until about 11. I decided to do my big shop at MBK mall. It was still as busy when as when i left it. At this point in my trip i didnt care about saving money so i took a taxi instead of a tuk tuk. I bought quite a bit of stuff. t shirts for the girls, jeans for me and my brother, some golfshirts for myself, My friend Austin and my dad, i bought 30 DVD's for $90! So far i've only had a problem with one of them. I bought some white shoes because i have always wanted some, some bakini's for friends of mine (they are super cheap so it made sense to get some), a couple soccer jerseys for me and my bro, some t shirts for me, and some sunglasses. O ya and i had to buy a new suitcase to bring all my stuff back. So as i was shopping the suit guys were making my suits. I finally left MBK around 6 pm. I know that sounds long but i had lunch/dinner at pizza hut which was a rip off because the pizza sucked (big suprise) so i came home in a tuk tuk while it was pouring rain harder than anything i have seen in thailand. It was the wrong tiem to choose tuk tuk over taxi! When i got back i took my stuff up to my room and headed down to the suit guy to do the final alterations, i was 30 mins late. So we did all the alterations and it came time to deal with the shipping. The guy originally said "it will be cheap 100 bhat" i can deal with that because its like $35. So we got down to it and he said 5000 bhat! 1000 per kilo. That would ahve been nice to mention eh! so in the end i just said fuck this i'll take it all in my suit case, i had to pay an extra 500 bhat to make the Jacket quicker but i didnt care. They dropped the Jacket off at 2am at the front desk. After all the stuff with the suit guys i decided i should go walk around koh san road one last time, there was so much stuff to buy but i was litterall y out of money. i had enough for my cab the the airport and 3 meals, talk about cutting it close eh. I decided against meeting people and drinking and stuff because i didnt want to be hung over for the plane ride, i've made that mistake twice. So i had a shower and got ready for bed. I started reading a book by rio ferinand, an English Soccer player, just before i left bankok for Laos a week before. The book was really good and i read about 5 chapters before i went to bed. Earlier that day i talked to one fo the suit guys and got them to hook me up with a good cab driver to take me to the airport the nest morning. i also got the hotel to have a cab waiting for me in the morning as well. If one or the other fell through i had a back up. I have to say the Rambiturri Inn was a good place to stay.I was comfortable there and it was right near koh san road. So i went to bed and set both my cell phone alarm and my ipod dock alarm just incase. This room also had a TV so that was good about 5 channels were in english so i watched a bit before i went to bed.
