KHONHAA CHIANGMAI 2009 ♥

I love Chiangmai! Chan rak Chiangmai! 8D (Don’t worry, I love Singapore too)

Well, Khonhaa Chiangmai 2009 was a blast! And judging by the facebook comments and photos and blogs, I’m definitely not the only one who feels this way

Day 1 – 11 November 2009

1025: Assemble at Changi International Airport, Terminal One for check in

My check-in luggage was 11kg! Shirlyn’s was 19 kg Was really excited as it was my first time going on an overseas trip by PLANE with SC (: Or a school trip for that matter.

1225: Flight departure

Sat next to the year 2s in Group 2 (:  Landing for the transit in Thailand was horrible. Thought I was going to die from extreme pressures because my ears were hurting like mad. Thought that my eardrums would burst D:

1650: Arrival at Chiangmai airport and met by representatives; Drive to hotel for check in and to freshen up

Roomed with Ada, the room was quite nice, but the view from the window was quite freaky hahahaha.

1900: Dinner and free time

Dinner was spent collating names and passport numbers for the pickup truck ride tomorrow for group leaders, and Yusiang and I ended up sitting at the teachers’ table for dinner cos we came in late and there wasn’t any space left at our group’s tables. Had quite a rough night in Tingwei/Vivian’s room with the entire exco. Showered at around 2.15am and slept at around 3am in their room. So sorry to Ada for not being a good room-mate, and thanks Sheena and Jiaxin for accompanying her! (:
