Money Expo 2009 (BKK)

Deposit product was very well received this year as usual despite current economy (very bad) and interest rate offer (very low). Then again, people just don't care much about this sort of thing in such event. All they care are just freebies and banks are generous enough to give it to them with out any "real" condition. Well, just another 2 tired and boring days for me.

D&G Bag

Hate to admit it but I have a little too many bags for a guy. Probably introduce the rest of my collection later on, but now let me show-off one of my favorites. This Dolce & Gabbana messenger bag is quite modish. The leather strip in the middle gives the luxurious sense while the rest are plain-woven cotton which makes the bag more casual. Saw it in a GM Magazine and had to run to the shop the next day. The only complain would be the lack of interior pockets it should have.

Birthday Brews

I recently received a postcard from Starbucks, offering free coffee+food of my choice with no condition as a birthday complimentary. Now this is good CRM not often see in Thailand. Most companies rather go for cross-sell and you just have to pray they don't use your speical day as an excuse. Little things like this can really capture customer loyalty.

Famicom(NES)

Meet an old friend, playing old video games. We both agreed that 8-bit machine can create as fun game, if not more, than those complicate machine with dazzling graphic we have today. Or may be we're too old to enjoy game that take days to learn how to play.

The game in the picture is Downtown Nekketsu Monogatari (a.k.a Kunio) by Technos.

Bar-B-Q

Having dinner outside is not my family custom. Although, we just went for Japanese/Korean style BBQ at YUU restaurant by Ari sky train station. Personally, I'm not really fond of such self-cook type restaurant. What's the point of paying someone to watch you cook yourself! Plus, for BBQ, you have to be very patient as it takes time before each slide of meat is ready. That also requires you to be able to tell when the meat is ready (which I can't) and closely monitoring it (which I'm too lazy to). Bottom line is that too much effort has to be made by yourself and they charge you the service fee?! Good food at YUU though.
