Bangkok Trip 20 Oct 2011 to 25 Oct 2011 ~ Part I

Booked our Bangkok Trip early this year and decided to go on 20th Oct till 25th Oct 2011.
Actually we wanted to postpone the trip as the news everywhere is showing Bangkok Floods.
Everything seems so bad but at last, we decided to on with our Trip.

Woke up at 5plus AM to prepare ourselves before cab over to Changi Airport Terminal 1. Cab fare alone is $30 over plus inclusive of peak hour charges.


Us in our couple ribbon and tie tee before leaving the house.


HB with our 1 and only luggage.

Reached the airport quite early, therefore, we decided to head over to their staff canteen for breakfast.

After breakfast, we went to check-in.

Counter 8 ~ Jetstar.com ~ Flight number 3K515

After checking - in, we went into the immigration and departure to have our passport checked and stamped. Walked around the duty free area and to find our Gate number.


Checking on our flights..


Which gate is it?


Deepavali Deco around the airport..


And yes.. Welcome to Terminal 1..


The busy men.. On the phone phone and phone.. who can live without phones?


The lady too.. is busy with another type of Phone..


Before going into the Gate area, leg message at airport is love..


Our Gate~ 18

Before we board the plane, we realise that the seats we had were not the seats we bought! Paid for the selected seats and all we got were seats that Jetstar allocated for us instead of the seats we selected!

*Jetstar had already delayed our flight and now, seats are not the ones we selected! Why must we pay for the selected seats then?!! Although is wasnt alot of money, but at least Jetstar could kindly inform us of the seats we selected aren't available! Well, in order not to delay any further, we decided to board the plane and tried to get the refund after coming back.

Shiok Deal - Hot Nails Promo - NOT ADVERT

Was attracted to this deal featured in Shiok Deal sometime back and bought it to try it out.

Deal:
Latest Hot Nails Promo:SGD 25 instead of SGD 105 for Gelish Classic Manicure with (French or French Glitter)+Free Soak Off @ Orchard - Link

Booked an appointment together with Wendy and off we went on 16 Oct 2011.
We were the first to reach the place, went in, and they requested for a hard copy of the print out coupon. As my printer's ink ran out, I couldn't get a nice printed one out. Told them our troubles and they refused to accept the not very nicely printed out copy with Hb's handwriting. Got into a row with them for a few mins and we have to go to the nearest printing shop to get a nicely printed coupon for them! How angry we are!

Anyway, we calm ourselves down and settle down to choose our designs/colors. We decided on doing French.
For me, its French glittered tip and Wendy is French coloured tip.

Good part for Gelish is that, it dries very fast and after dried, you can do whatever u wan. It stays pretty well.

Its a SGD25 deal, so.. I wouldn't wanna comment so much on the service, or wad-so-eva. As you know, you paid wad u get.

Not really satisfied with their outcome but anyway, I am there just to try it out.

It will be my first and last time there.


And there it is.. my first time ever tried Gelish nails from Specialist Nail and Beauty Spa.

*Do note that this isnt an advert for them. I paid for it myself.
