Tragic holiday planning tale

i can't help it, i just have to share my very tragic holiday planning tale with everyone...

about a month back, a few of us decided to go to port dickson for this dj tiesto gig and some beach party thing. but then along the way, everybody had something on and so it got cancelled.

then i remembered that i was still on probation and so it's not right to take leave during this period, hence i gave up the idea of going on a holiday.

but then the days passed, and i took on this really shitty project that drove me insane, and i decided to screw the world, and just apply for leave, regardless of whether my appraisal in 2 mths time will be like shit..and guess what? my leave got approved! woohoo!

so then i started thinking of places to go to..and the first place i thought of was...bali.
after much consideration, i've decided that i should spend that amount of money, going to a destination that i've never been to. hence i settled on chiang mai or koh samui.

so a VERY excited me...went to check out the airfares, hotel, weather etc. only to find out that the fligths to chiang mai were fully booked, and the only one available was by thai airways , which costs $600+++ well...no way am i going to pay tt much money to go to thailand! so then i checked out koh samui. the tix were equally expensive, but to add on to that, the weather forecast showed that there's gonna be thunderstorm everyday.

damn. then charles suggested hong kong, which took me by surprise. because i never imagined that he would ever suggest going to my fav country in the world. hence i went to check out all the hotel prices and air tix and all were available! couldn't believe my luck at tt pt in time. but...there's always a but isn't it?! hobz told me that peach told her...that she just experienced a typhoon on saturday while she was there. so this morning i smsed peach (who is still in HK by the way) , and she said yea there was a typhoon level 3, and the local news just reported that it's gonna get worse over the next few days. oh yay yay yipee yay!

knnbccb more like it. i had to think like mad of another destination and finally settled on TOKYO! sounds damn fun ya?! so ok was all excited abt it, but cldn't get a confirmation on the flights that were available, and some certain organisation has some stupid rigid leave application system that requires very fixed dates for going overseas. you know how sometimes the rest of us can just pretend tt we are on MC or like say we miss the plane or something and take an extra day of leave at the last min? well this particular organisation doesn't allow it, so tokyo was out of the qn, and we finally decided on bangkok :( the place i dislike the most after our friendly neighbours.

so 5D4N in bangkok it was until.........my colleague told me that her mom just returned from bangkok and the weather right now is 40degrees, and when it's not like a desert, there's thunderstorm.

eh WTF...enough already or not?! if it's not the flight, it's the hotel, if it's not the hotel it's the weather. wth.......and i thought going on a holiday was supposed to be relaxing!
