Recently, I had a great opportunity to visit "Jesada Technik Museum" in Nakhon Pathom Province, which is Thailand's very first museum of exotic cars and the largest museum in Asia. I was pleasantly surprised by the variety of vehicles there ranging from bubble cars, motorbikes, classic cars, tanks, humvies, helicopters, etc. There were means of all kinds of transportation from cars, boats, airplanes, and military aircrafts from all over the globe.
The owner and founder is a business man, Mr. Jesada Dejsakulrit who had been traveling around the world and started his first collection from bubble cars and from there that he started to collecting other means of transport.
Eventhough it is called a museum but it's more like a private collection that is open to public viewing free of charge. Very kind enough of him that he wants to educate the children, therefore has hosted field trips to many school children with lunch and tour guide offered.
If you are classic and exotic car lovers, please visit this musuem and you will be surprised to see these collectibles that you can't see anywhere else in the world.
Jesada Technik Museum is located at 100 Moo 2, Ngewrai, Nakhon Chaisi, Nakhon Pathom. For further information call 66 (034) 339-468 or 089-679-8778. Or visit http://www.jesadatechnikmuseum.com It opens Tuesday to Sunday.
Great!It's nice of him to offer free educational viewing to children and automobile enthusiasts. I am pretty sure that they'll love to go there. I too would really love to. Who knows, somebody might notice the potentials of this private collection and help fund the restoration or perhaps donate parts like replacement fenders, headlights, and the like with absolutely nothing in return!Or perhaps house it at a larger museum.I just hope so.Well then, good luck to the owner.

The other day I went to see a Thai movie called "Khon Fai Look" or "Spontaneous Human Combustion" which was partially based on a true story. After seeing that movie, it still leaves me with a creepy and very unscientific feeling as it's something that really happenned. In the movie, they slightly changed a plot so that there's a scientific explanation to the cause of "Spontaneous Human Combustion" or SHC, however in reality SHC is still an unproven phenomenon. I became more and more curious to find out on the true story and the cause of SHC.
From Wikipedia, Spontaneous Human Combustion (SHC) refers to the belief that the human body sometimes burns without an external source of ignition. There is much speculation and controversy regarding SHC, for it is an unproven natural phenomenon. Many theories and hypotheses have attempted to explain how SHC might occur, but those which rely on current scientific understanding say that instances mistaken for spontaneous combustion actually required a source of ignition. One such hypothesis is the "wick effect", in which the clothing of the victim soaks up melted human fat and acts like the wick of candle. Another possibility is that the clothing is caused to burn by a discharge of static electricity. The likelihood that truly spontaneous human combustion actually takes place is remote, due to the presence of water and the lack of highly flammable compounds and oxygen in the human body.
History of SHC
Over the past 300 years, there have been more than 200 reports of persons burning to a crisp for no apparent reason. The first reliable historic evidence of SHC appears from the year 1673.
What Remains After SHC Event
- The body is normally more severely burned than one that has been caught in a normal fire. - The burns are not distributed evenly over the body; the extremities are usually untouched by fire, whereas the torso usually suffers severe burning. - In some cases the torso is completely destroyed, the bones being reduced completely to ash. - Small portions of the body (an arm, a foot, maybe the head) remain unburned. - Only objects immediately associated with the body have burned; the fire never spread away from the body. SHC victims have burnt up in bed without the sheets catching fire, cloth worn is often barely signed, and flammable materials only inces away remain untouched. - A greasy soot deposit covers the ceiling and walls, usually stopping three to four feet above the floor. - Objects above this three to four foot line show signs of heat damage - Although temperatures of 3,000 degrees Fahrenheit are normally required to char a body so thoroughly (crematoria, which usually operate in the neighborhood of 2,000 degrees, leave bone fragments which must be ground up by hand), frequently little or nothing around the victim is damaged, except perhaps the exact sopt where the deceased ignited.
Theories about SHC
- Alcoholism - many SHC victims have been alcoholics. But experiments in the 19th century demonstrated that flesh impregnanted with alcohol will not burn with the intense heat associated with SHC. - Deposits of flammable body fat - Many victims have been overweight - yet others have been skinny. - Devine Intervention - Centuries ago people felt that the expolsion was a sign from God of devine punishment. - Build-up of static electricity - no know form of electrostatic discharge could cause a human to burst into flames. - An explosive combination of chemicals can form in the digestive system - due to poor diet. - Electrical fields that exist within the human body might be capable of 'short circuiting' somehow, that some sort of atomic chain reaction could generate tremendoyus internal heat.
No satisfactory of Spontaneous Human Combustion has ever been given. It is still an unsolved mystery.
urggh! that's scary muk kha ... I hope my flame wont burn me at some point! I am so afraid of this movie after seeing the preview, instead I went to see BOONCHOO :) lol

Again, I had an honor to attend one of the most glamorous events, which was "Thailand Tatler 17th Anniversary Ball" that was held at Plaza Athenee hotel on 12th Sep'08. The theme was "Venetian", so many women were dressed up beautifully in Venetian style with masks. For me, I didn't dare to go for the whole Venetian costume concept, but was wearing something rather of my own style with a Venetian flare. However, I had the most difficult time walking in my dress as it was exteremely long that I almost tripped over myself many times.
The overall event was excellent with the many high profile celebrities attending in which whom I can only see in exclusive and high profile events.
The event started from 7pm with the media and guest registration. By 8pm, guests were led to the Ballroom where gala dinner was taken place. MC invited Mr. Nigel Oakins, Thailand Tatler Chairman to deliver the openning speech. There were many beautiful performances such as Ballet, BSO, Calvachina Dance, Dance from the Argentina Embassy, and Schreiner Jewellery Show by Yafriro.
Towards the end of the event, Khun Naphalai Areesorn, Editor-in-Chief of Thailand Tatler was giving a little speech and announced the special rewards and winners of this year which was the moment everyone was waiting for. There were many awards being presented:
"Best Dress" - Khun Chitramontn Techaphaiboon for woman, and Poj Maj Gen Angkul Athorn-Phtai for man.

As of today, the political stand-off in Thailand is inevitably effecting the travel and tourism industry, regardless that almost all tourism facilities and services operating normally and protests currently limited to a small area of Bangkok. The fact is that many prospective tourists and visitors are reluctant to travel when they hear about the state of emergency being declared and see images of violent clashes in media reports. If this keep continueing, it will certainly effect the economy and people's way of life in Thailand deeply.
I've already seen high cancellation rate in hotels, in which the hotel occupancy in most of the hotels has decreased significantly. As one of the Thai citizens who is working in hotel industry like myself, I or anybody else don't want to see this to happen.
I want to urge those of you who is living outside of Thailand and planning to travel here, please do so. Thailand ready to welcome visitors, despite domestic politics, which in reality life in Bangkok is continued as normal and as of today there is a minimal or no threats in the safety of visitors to Thailand.
I only hope that the impact will be minimal if things return to normal soon. I am urging all the Thais or those that living in Thailand to help spread the news that Thailand is a safe country. With the help of everybody, I'm sure the tourism situation will be back to normal soon. I have an e-mail as per below from Hong Kong media who is living in Thailand that would like to share with you all. It shows how concern some people are even they are not Thais.
"Dear partners and friends, Being Hong Kong people,we live in Bangkok,we know that now the situations in Thailand is already quite stable,including the tourists area,but the news reporting in other countries,the daily TV news,newspaper,reflected a very serious and dangerous image about Thailand. Tourists just believe about their news report and freighten to come to Thailand,including our Hong Kong people who enjoy coming to Thailand during their holidays. We love Thailand, we love Thai people and the King . We do want to extend our confidence to the overseas people that besides some problem which is actually happening,the country is still safe for visiting. As we are working in this country,we get good business during the peaceful time,and now there is some problem or bad effect happening,we do hope that we can do something to help the tourism business. Since 30 August 2008, we have kept on updating the latest informations in our “Thailandfans.com” and the forum in it, for all Chinese reading web fans..including Hong Kong, Macau, Taipei, Singapore and Malaysia, etc.Mr Roger Wu, our web master, “Friends of Thailand 2000” went out everyday to take the video on each tourists area such as JJ market, Siam Square, CentralWorld, Siam Paragon, Silom, China Town, Khao San, Grand Palace.....then kept on proving and explaining thatthe tourists areas are safe, not horrible as what the medias described in their countries. Those footage can be found in youtube.com and in Mr Wu’s own blog:http://rogerwu.mysinablog.com/index.phphttp://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=tnd1964&search_type=&aq=f During this period, Mr Wu has lots of communication with Hong Kong's radio, TV, newspaper and he just speeking and emphasing on the safety side of Thailand. We love Thailand and as a foreigners who love Thailand, we will keep on reporting the real situations of Thailand to all those Chinese reading people.We hope that the problem can be solved as soon as possible,and all tourists especially the Hong Kong people will come back in the very near future. If you are planning for big promotion for attraction to the tourists,please forward to us and we are most willing to post it on our web-site for notification. Finally,we would like to inform that we get the support from the TAT Bangkok office to get the most update information about the Political situation in Thailand of which we will post on the front page of “thailandfans.com”.Please check it for details." Yours sincerely, Grace Kwok Managing DirectorTom Mark Co.Ltd. Thailandfans.comThai In Time magazine
After a long exhuasted week from working and partying 4 times last week, I have to admit it that by late Saturday night I was quite dead. So as soon as I got on my bed I slept like a baby. It was actually the first time in one year that I got a chance to sleep for 10 hours. I woke up around 10 am on Sunday and didn't have any plan yet, until I felt that I should get out of Bangkok, from the city scene abit and go somewhere where it's peaceful and relaxing. So my husband suggested about "Amphawa Floating Market" which he has seen from the internet.
Since Amphawa is closed to the "Lake Point" cable ski in Ratchaburi, so we all decided to take this trip. First, we arrived at Lake Point, which we haven't been back there for 3 years already. It was quite a great feeling doing wakeboarding alright as I felt my physical strength is back to normal.
After wakeboarding, we started to leave to Amphawa Floating Market, which we arrived there at 5pm. Amphawa is a district of Samut Songkhram Province, located slightly inland of the northeastern tip of the bay of Bangkok. It was 1.5 hours driving from Bangkok. Not far at all, comparing to how much differences the 2 provinces between Bangkok and Amphawa are.
"Amphawa Floating Market" is nearly similar to a famous "Damnoen Saduak Floating Market", but we find Amphawa's atmosphere is much better due to it's authentic scence and nature which made us feel like we are seeing Thailand 50+ years ago. Yet, Amphawa is still relatively unknown to western tourists. We can't spot even one Western head among many hundreds of Thai tourists.
There were many food stalls along the sidewalk, selling the kind of food that hardly see in the city anymore. We were so tempted by all kinds of food there that we ate quite a large amount.
There were many houses along the canal which most of them were doubling as shops and restaurents. We also spotted many nice Homestay, which we've planned to come back and stay over the weekend. It would certainly be much better to see Amphawa residents' ways of life from an early morning without any tourists wandering around and to see monks rowing up and down the canel colecting food during their alms round.
We took a boat along the canal in an early evening for 1 hour, it was great to explore houses along the canel, watching people doing their chores and relaxing. After we reached the pier, we decided to sit in one of the authentic restaurent by the canel. It was the songs from the live trio band inside the restaurant that attracted us. They must have been local residents here, but they sang English songs so beautifully well. The food there was great too and cheap.
Overall, it was a fabulous trip. It was good to see something different once awhile.

Many days I've seen and heard news on local and international media regarding the political crisis that is happenning in our country. The "country" that what used to be called and well known among other countries as "A Land of Smiles". But not sure, if others still see Thailand that way nowaday. Especially with the crisis in the South that is still hapenning everyday. And now this!
I've been thinking alot whether I should write about this topic or not as we all know that Politic is a very sensitive and serious issue as many people have their own opinions and beliefs. But, if anyone ask me "Whose side you are on?" In these circumstances, I cannot afford to stay in the middle so I have to say the "Government" and only hoping that the government can end this peacefully soon.
Some "dumb ass" or who is also called "People's Alliance for Democracy" protestors (PAD) think that they are fighting for the King and the country by starting to brainwash many Thai citizens to protest against the Government. They are wearing yellow T-shirts saying "Fight for the King". I don't understand what part of their brain they are using by thinking that the King will appreciate their stupid and vilolent actions. Violence, anger, hatred is toxic. Their attackes are harnful to the society and malicious. The PAD was feeding off the hatred which exists still between it and Mr. Samak Sundaravej's predecessor Thaksin Shinawatra.
Thailand has long been ruled by our beloved King Bhumibol Adulyadej. I believe that he would prefer Thailand to be the land of peace, freedom, and happiness. This morming when I heard the Thai National Anthem, it just hit me hard again with the meaning and what is happenning now is contradicting to the meaning of the song.
After translation from Thai, here it says:
Thailand unites flesh and blood of Thais. Nation of the people; belonging to the Thais in every respect. Long maintained (has been) the independence Because the Thais seek, and love, unity. Thais are peace-loving; But at war we're no cowards. Sovereignty will not threatened Sacrificing every drop of blood for the nation Hail the nation of Thailand, long last the victory, Hurrah
I am one of the many Buddhists who believe that peace can only be achieved if we first establish peace within our minds. The idea is that anger and other negative states of mind are the cause of wars and fighting. We can live in peace and harmony only if we abandon the anger in our minds and learn to love each other.
Being a person who had been brought up in Yonkers, New York, I was quite familiar with the hip hop culture there to a certain extent. Not that I am an expert on it now, but had a fair degree of experience and I still find that it's very interesting with the hip hop music/dance, B-boy and Streetdance which are now booming in Asia. Hip hop music is part of hip hop culture, which began in the Bronx (near where I lived), in New York City in the 1970s. Predominantly among African Americans and Latinos.
A B-boy or B-girl is a person devoted to hip hop culture. From my small research, there are four basic elements which form the foundation of B-boying. The first is "Toprock", a term referring to the upright dancing and shuffles that B-boys do when they enter a circle. The second element is "Downrock" or "Footwork", refers to dancing performed on the floor. The third element is known as "Freeze", refers to the poses that B-boys throw into their dance sets to add punctuation to certain beats and end their routines. The fourth and final element of bboying is the "Power" moves. These are acrobatic moves normally made up of circular motions where the dancer will spin either on the floor, or in the air. Battles are an integral part of b-boying culture. The battles are head to head confrontations between individuals or groups of dancers who try to out-dance each other.
Street dance is commnonly used specifically for the many hip hops and funk dance styles also began in the United States in the 1970s, and are still alive and evolving within hip hop culture today. I recently watched a movie "Step Up 2", which I find it's amazing.
Today, serious street dance competitions are increasingly popular, and a number of large annual international events are taking place around the world, such as Battle of the Year, Juste Debout and House Dance International.
On Aug 7, I went to "Battle of the Year Asia 2008" to see the competitions that was comprised of teams from 9 countries (China, Japan, Malaysia, Taiwan, Korea, Singapore, Laos, Thailand, and Vietnam). It was taken place at Nimibutr Tower, National Stadium. The winner was T.I.P. team from South Korea, 1st Runner-Up was team Formosa from Taiwan, 2nd Runner-Up was team Kaiden Ninja from Japan. And The Best Show team was Formosa from Taiwan again.
On Sept 6, on behalf of Dream Hotel Bangkok, I'll be organzing and hosting "4DUB Hip Hop Party" at the hotel, where I'll combine all of the hip hop music, B-boy and hip hop dance and street dance battle into this party. It should be one of the best parties of the year for those who is into the hip hop culture or for those who is seeking for a new experience. The night will be highlight with the live concert from 4DUB who is Asia's most played Hip hop group in Myspace. With over 1 million plays, they have taken the internet and Hip hop scene by storm. Comprised of Hydro Phonics & Shomori Pass, 4DUB brings a new flavor to Hip hop, wielding razor-sharp, dual blades of bi-lingual rap in both English and Thai.
This weekend, I and my family had the most enjoyable and memorable time. My friends (Yotsawan Chamnankit and Paul Naruenartwanich) and my family were invited by Director of Public Relations, Khun Dhaninrat Klinhom (K. Sunday) of Amari Resort & Tower, Pattaya to join the hotel's "Wedding Dreams II" event that was held on 16-17 Aug. We have to say it was one of our best trips ever, not only the hotel is beautiful but the service was excellent and remarkable. It was our second trip to this hotel after we were there last year for it's Grand Openning Party.
It was rather a VVIP treatment that we received from the moment of stepping to the hotel's entrance until leaving it's doorstep. Being a hotelier myself for more than 12 years in all the big chained hotels namely JW Marriott, Conrad, Four Seasons, and The Sukhothai, I must say that the service here is equally impressive and standardized. All the staff from the bellboy to the management level, specially K. Sunday were friendly, helpful, and attentive. It's rather the human assets that have added the value to the property.
From the moment we arrived, we were escorted to the "Horizon Club", or an Executive Lounge where we did the check-in. The Executive Deluxe Room that was assigned for us is fabulous, and yet modern with fully equiped facilities. But, what impressed us more was a welcome back letter from the hotel's General Manager, Mr. Dominic Stamm and a bottle of "Penfolds" red wine that was sitting next to it.
The itenery was scheduled for us with compliments from the hotel.
Mantra Restaurant & Bar was reserved for dinner for our entire group. We had one of the excellent dinner with the greatest food quality. When we glanced at the prices, they were considerably very reasonable or lower than many 5 star restaurants in Bangkok.
Next morning, we had breakfast at the Horizon Club, the food items were limited, however the quality of food was far exceeded. In the afternoon, we all joined the "Wedding Dreams II" event which was joined by many top celebrities of Thailand namely, Khun Daranee Krittiboonyalai and her husband, Khun Byron and Cindy Bishop, Khun Edward and Khun Methinee Kingpayom, and myself.
In the evening during happy hours, we all had few drinks and tasty snacks before going to Mantra for another dinner which was reserved for 10 of us. It was a perfect dinner, especially the Lobster menu was so excellent. It was like the biggest lobster we've ever seen.
On our 2nd day, my family and I had buffet breakfast at Essence Restaurant which is located on the 3rd floor, and overlooking the swimming pool. The buffet here was sumptous with Continental, Asian and American breakfast. Again, the food taste and quality was great. After breafast, we went to swim before going to our 11am spa appoinment at "Sivara Spa" that was reserved for us on complimentary (again). My husband and I had one hour massage. It was very good and relaxing, along with the great service, yet again.
After that, our whole group had brunch at Mantra, which Sunday brunch here is very popular due to it's sumptuous food and quality with reasonal prices.
Yet, last impressive surprise, K. Sunday presented each one of us the vouchers for accommodation, Spa treatment, and Sunday Brunch at Mantra for all of us to come back again,
We sure would definitely come back here and will recommend all of our friends about this great and lavish property.

I don't think I could sum it up any better than the description above. This weekend was one of "the most enjoyable and memorable times". Each and every moment was special. Experiencing this trip was amazing, but experiencing this trip with close friends made it truly incredible. I want to thank my friend P'Yot for refering me and Khun Sunday for pampering us with this wonderful experience. I hope the "Wedding Dreams II" event was a success. Thank you again, I definitely can't wait to go back.

In Thailand, August 12 is the birthday of HRH Queen Sirikit. The day is celebrated as National Mother's Day (Wan Mae Heng Chat). The day is a public Holiday and is celebrated throughout the nation as the Queen is considered to be the mother of all the Thai people.
And on this special occasion, Thai Hotel Public Relations Association that I am belonging in as one of it's members, organized a visit to 'Baan Bang Kae", an elderly home. So all the members can get a chance to pay respect to the elderly women by taking care of them, entertainning them, and importantly, pouring water on their hands and presenting them with jasmin garlands while we receiving blessing from them.
It was a short, but rather a happy moment for us all. We were singing, dancing, clapping, laughing and really enjoying ourselves together. Certainly, their lives would be much better of with their children at home where they can be loved and happy everyday. More than half of the residents have ended up here because they failed to consider their futures and ran out of money. And sad to say, the rest came here because their children didn't want to take care of them.
Most of the Thai people are Buddhists who believe in the concept of repaying for their parents' goodness and usually live with their parents. But currently, a growing number of older Thai people as well as the changing Thai society, is effect by the need for more health care services and and social support.
I believe that one of the ways to improve this is that the employment of senior citizens has to be promoted further, but it's more important than anything else to rediscover our respect for the elderly and to emphasize on our traditional Buddhist belief of repaying to our parents which this belief nowadays seems to fade away.
I never realized how powerful a mother's love can be until I have a child of my own. It's an everlasting love that is imcomparable to anything in the worod. On this Mother's day, at my son's school. All the children had to pay respect to their moms and supposedly to 'krab" them on their feet. Each student took turn, until it was my son's turn that I bursted into tears and can't stop crying. It was the best moment ever. Likewise, I would do the same to my mom on August 12.

This Saturday, instead of going to the mall, watching movie, or eating in a fancy restaurant as usual, i decided to take a journey to a slum in Bangsue District with my Assistant, Tudtu who was telling me about this social work project; to be a volunteer teacher for the slum children. I didn't have any second thoughts about joining her. As a matter of fact, was excited about it.
This project is led by a retired teacher who is known as "Krue Pu" or "Teacher Grandpa". He's already 71 years old, but his age does not seem to stop him from doing what he loves and that is "teaching". There is a small group of volunteer teachers who are willing to devote their time in the morning of Saturday or Sunday to be with the children. The age range from 17 to 71 years old. The children are from 1st to 6th grade. Most of the donations on food, stationeries, books, and etc. are coming from the individuals, not from the government.
Being a volunteer teacher and as a matter of fact, for other teachers too that we consider this children our teachers as well. We are all teaching and learning from each other. The children teach us tolerance, love and friendship. They demand to be loved, they demand that you hold them, they demand that you love them. They're only human. These young individuals have dreams and inspirations, like any other children. They simply need dreams and aspirations. To give the children the spark that ignites a love of learning and a lifetime opportunity.
Seemed to me that all the children were enjoying themselves as it is through this time that a large group of children and adults integrate, interact and learn from each other. I must stress the importance of good teamwork. Achievement came from people helping each other.
If anyone ask me what is my inspiration to do this social work. I must say I have no inspiration. What I am doing are the things I want to do. Therefore, I enjoy doing them even without being publicly recognized. My message to those who wish to benefit society, is that people should not be forced to do public work. In practice, benefit to society come from action, asking people to volunteer for social work. When they experience the job and feel happy, they will stay on like me.
From my small research, Thailand has a population of sixty million people. Nearly twenty percent of those live in slums. The slums provide homes for Bangkok's numerous low-paid workers. The slums became more crowded and more widespread. There were no space for the children, and no schools. Many of the children have no birth certificate. This effectively bared them from going to state schools.
The pressure on slum families inevitably make their mark on the children. Many homes are "broken". Children may live with elderly grandparents who cannot support them, with casual step-fathers who do not care for them or perhaps with loving parents too preoccupied with earning enough food and shelter to spare them the care and attention they need.
Social and commercial pressure combine to reinforce feelings of alienation: they are slum children and therefore no good: they will never have consumer goods or lifestyle they are taught to admire.
The strong can hold out, if they have a parents or teachers who can show them better values and help them value themselves as people. But not all slum children can be strong and not all have parents who can give them what they need. They could find some of it at school, perhaps, if they went to school. What they do fine, in so many cases, is relief from the ugliness of their world in a bottle of thinner or addictive substances.

It has been getting on my nerves for quite sometimes now as nearly everyday, I've been receiving different kinds of pick-up lines through facebook, e-mail, msn, and etc. So want to share with you women because I'm sure many of you have experienced it as well. And would you agree that most of them are so lame, stupid, and low class?
I and my girlfriends have seen or heard lines in many different styles. One of the most uncommonly used is "Straight and direct to the point", which we find very offensive and rude. Which often, these men can get their ass kicked or a good slap. Something like:
"Excuse me, have I fucked you yet?"
"I love you. I want to marry you. Now fuck my brains out"
"I miss my teddy bear. Would you sleep with me?" "I want to put my thingy into your thingy"
Well, we've hardly seen or heard these lines anymore as they are too rude, but some idiots still use them though.
Now, something like what refers to as "Innuendo" or Think about it ...
"Can I flirt with you?" "Do you know what'd look good on you? Me" "There must be something wrong with my eyes, I can't take them off you." "Will you marry me for just one night?"
Any woman would fall for any of that? No, I don't think so.
Another popular style is "Flattery" or Compliments can be nice...
Oh yes, this style I've seen the most. Something like:
"Have you always been this cute or you have to work at it?" "I just had to come to talk to you. Sweetest is my weakness." "I'm not drunk, I'm just intoxicated by you." "Nice to meet you. I'm _____ and you are gorgeous!"
I believe at least this style should work better than the first two.
Lastly, just "Plain Lame" or just plain stupid
"Want to see my HARD DRIVE? I promise it isn't 3.5 inches and ain't floppy." "Hi, the voices in my head told me to come over and talk to you." "Do you want to see something swell?"
Men use these pick-up lines to make sexual acquaintance with women in anticipation for sex. But, some pieces of advice to men, if you still use these pick-up lines, you'll be ending up alone in bed most of the time.
I suggest that you be yourself and spontaneous. Pick-up lines are lame and you would end up looking like an idiot. Spontaneous is the best. Just make a simple introduction of yourself and be nice to a lady.
Hey Vachini... u can pen down ur thought very well.. compliments for that..
hmm there are all kinds of ppl in this world.. some are desperate.. some are direct.. some dont have time.. some have no clue what to say to a woman and most important of all.. Women dont hit on men.. atleast not in BKK so Men dont even know what does a cheap pick up line mean to them...
I guess all women out here have to give men some more chance.. tell them to cool down a bit and go for the decent ones...agree ?

My girl is intelligent, and hit on me originally. Just how I like it. She started flirting tonite and I was lost. I've read several web pages now with pick-up lines. If I used any of these, she would laugh, and/or feel insulted. Just think I was dumb. Pick-up lines ARE dumb. It's more like, I need to find combinations of seductive phrases which I can use at times. I basically need to devote some time while driving, or not doing much to think of creative ways that don't sound...just stupid. These all are, but I really think some are okay....Actually...screw it, the best true pick up lines are genuine. They happen in the moment, and you don't even realize the power of what you just said until they're floored. Just like real comedy. I already sway her at times without even realizing. That's why she picked me in the first-place. All of these lines on the net are moronic and will only attract morons. It's not the line, but the way it's said. Naivety seems to work well with some. I'm just not thinking about it anymore, and following my heart.
Good luck everyone else. When it's real, their is no try. It just fits into place. Love trumps all.
