Stay tuned, this post will be long post and lots of photos >.<
Today is Saturday which means today is a holiday. Yay! Last Night, I and Aulia have a plan for going to the city to hang out with others friend. My school is the farthest location I guess. Some of my friends’ dorm is near to the city. It is okay, it is part of our struggle hehe. Although it is a holiday, the school are still busy with their activities such as marching band, some preparation for Chinese New Year day, so in this holiday there are some students are in the school. Waking up with realizing this time is a holiday is just like escaping from the nightmare 5555 I prepare myself for going out with Aulia. But, Unluckily, when I want to take a bath the water is run out so I wait for the water. In around 14.00 p.m I am ready to go. I just bring my sling bag which is pocket, tissue, key, and passport inside. We order grab because we don’t know how to go there with the transportation. The first destination is Central Plaza Chiang Rai and also be a meeting point.
While waiting for the others I and Aulia go to the TOP Market just for window shopping wkwk I go to the vegetable area because I like it. I find very big leek there. Aaaaaa I just can’t bear my self on it. I very like walking around this area hihi
Alhamdulillah, the others are coming so we walk around the Plaza. The Plaza is just like in Indonesia, it just the same. In this moment, we start to starving so we look for the food which is halal for us. After looking for so long, our decision falls in with KFC. Yup! Don’t worry we have asked the waitress due to the halal thing. He said “Halal”. Okay, here we go! Alhamdulillah, after that we continue our window shopping there, and we go to the TOP Market again and meet with an Indonesian and his friend from Brunei. They are scholarship awardee from Mae Fah Luang University. We share the stories each other and they follow us to go to Chiang Rai night bazaar. To go there we go there by Public transportation in Thailand – I don’t know the name- and I also I forget to take the photo.
We arrive at the terminal and we have to pay 20 bhat per person. Then, we walk along the street to look for the mosque to pray ashar. Because the Mosque is so far so we go to Retsa’s dorm to pray Ashar and maghrib. Then, We go ahead to the town by walking and we are going to Chiang Rai Golden Clock Tower. The time when we arrive is exact. When the clock shows at 07 p.m. Suddenly the clock change the color and there is Thai music there. It is about 7 minutes played. We also meet Miss Sunny, the coordinator from Damongratsongkroh school who accompanying my friends. She is so kind, warm and lovely. She said that in every 7 p.m, 8 p.m, and 9 p.m the clock changes the color. It is so amazing, The clock amaze me! When The clock changes the color suddenly all of the people give attention to it. So good naaa! In the fact, the texture of the temple is shining maybe it is made of the truly gold. So beautiful!
After watching the Chiang Rai Golden clock tower show we go to the walking street near with flower festivals. The walking street is just like SunMor or Sunday Morning in Yogyakarta. I just survey the things and the price for buying something to bring to Indonesia. Oh yaa1! also buy Thai Milk tea in 20Bhat. it is so delicious and so different within my country did. I interest with all of the food but I know that I can’t eat all of the food. We have to make sure that all of the food is halal and Muslim Seller is my first priority.
I don’t buy anything except Thai tea and some rice that I buy from Muslim seller. after that, I watch a show that a singer with many dancers, some of my friends join the dancer but I don’t join the Dancer and me, and Rahmi just sits in the chair watching them. They sing Thailand song with the same movement. I guess, it is also Thailand movement of the dance. The movement is easy I think hehe. In the walking street also I just survey the things that I will buy for my souvenirs. In the middle of the walk, I meet the beautiful little girl who plays Thailand traditional musical instrument. She is so cute, smart and beautiful. I forget her name, but she can speak English fluently. So lovely!
After That, we are going to flowers festivals, although I never go there it is different because I went there in the morning. Thus, I visit this flowers festival in the night. It is so incredible, So many lamps decorates in the trees and there is a concert there. I watch the concert although I don’t know the meaning of the language -_-“. Then I meet, Retsa, Diah, Novita and Miss Sunny which watch the concert also. Before leaving this place we take many photos first wkwk
After that, we are going to the dorm because the time is already so the night. We sleep at Novita, Diah and Resta’s dorm.
It’ such a very tiring day but amusing!
