Day 8 - 17th Oct 05
Got up before 5am cos kanna disturbed by the lights. some of them woke up early to go see the 5 beauties make up. jennifer, karen, qiong ping, michelle and melissa was the thai costume representative for us. hmm, we had french toast for breakfast.. tasted quite nice. after that we prepared to go to the sports day festival. aoy brought us to a place dunno where and there were alot of people dressed in different colour shirts. it was a pretty grand event and i felt honoured to be there. our 5 beauties arruved soon after. it appeared that the 8 villages in buriram province were fighting over who should lead the contigent march when they heard we had 5 thai beauties coming. but in the end to avoid the quarrel, they decided to give us the honour to carry the national flag and our 5 beauties to lead the whole contigent process.
me photographer!! so hot!! the march was like abt 0.5km or 1 km. i accidentally step onto the mud, yucks. my shoes all dirty.. the contigent was very long, didn't manage to take a good photo. but towards the end when the march was ending, i manage to hitch a ride on the police truck!! lolx.. ms n limin got on oso. i finish 1 batt very fast, so gotta save. ms video cam also no tape/ so i went back with pikul to take the tapes. her hat flew off halfway.. had to run back to get it. reach the house pikul realised she got no key!! so she rode back and came back with Ja. after gathering everything we went bakc. they were about to start the volleyball match. oh yea, at the VIP seats just now, qp went to see got tape in the van anot, then the speaker was like introducing the 5 beauties asking them to stand up 1 by 1. in the end mr tan had to say 'hong nam! hong nam!!'.. muahaha.. like joke lai tt.. everyone laugh.. the volleyball game was pretty funny. only xinyi was professional. we kinda got thrashed. but its ok, friendly match. after that we headed to a 'restaurant' nearby for lunch.. had kway chap, so i don't need to do duty, just serve.. lolx..
after lunch we headed back home for some beauty afternoon nap.. hot weather makes me drowsy.. we headed for the farm at abt 4pm. tried my hands at carrying bamboo poles to the fields, diggin holes to plant the poles, pushing back the soil into the hold. under the sweltering sun, it was so damn tiring. i've learned how to appreciate what i have. the fields was planting long beans and they are clingers, tts why need the bamboo poles to support them. we also tried to pluck coconuts with a blade tied to the end of a bambo stick. i succeeded at my 1st try!!! woohoo!! karen and joannie successfully broke the blade. shiying and gang managed to pluck coconuts with 6 ppl together. poor juan mei couldn't pluck any. the blade keep faling off. then just when going to get the coconut down they left, poor jm soooo disappointed.
we trudged back back home after carrying all the bamboo to the fields. so long walk my leg pain.. muz have been the longest walk in my life.. cos no van to come fetch us mahz.. imagine the small children coming to the fields after school to help their parents. omg.. i'm soooooooo fortunate. my legs were like breaking. we had dinner upon reachin home.
