May 22, 2001

Me and my friends Gopper,Ashura,Jasmine and Apple were waitting for westlife guyz at the hotel while some of my friends Orney,Tucky,Pat and Tim were waiting for the ladz at Bangkok International Airport around noon. it's took not much time my friends @ the airport call us about the ladz gonna arrive @ the hotel but my friends missing the ladz and don't know which entrance they gonna coming.

Around 15 mins later the rest of my friends came to join us...we'er waiting for the ladz about 2 hours but we didn't see them just see their staff. So we decide to went up to the room that we'er booking at this hotel. Westlife and their staffs booked the whole floor of 29th and 30th.

Around 6 pm. some of our friends Liv arrived to the hotel she just came back from school and then we left the hotel for went to the concert.At the concert venue we'er met our friends Nong,Nan,Nidnung and Pom.We go inside the stadium just in time before their opening act Christian Wunderlich came out.He sang 6 song it's took not much time and then it's time for " WESTLIFE "!!!!!!!!! This's their song list :

Dreams come true
No no
If I let you go
Swear it again
Somebody needs you
Season in the sun
You make me feel
When you're looking like that
My love
More than words
Motown medley: My girl
Can't get next to you
Ain't to pround to beg
Baby I need your lovin'
Uptown girl
What makes a man

Encore: I Lay my love on you
Flying without wings

The Asian tour's concert is a bit different from UK tour ... we have no technical stuffs at all but I feel like an hour and a half has gone so fast...it's my best time I ever had and I think everyone who were at the stadium mustta feel like me.Everyone was amazed with their dancing and we dancing all the way.The highlight is they invited Miss.Thailand to get on the stage in Uptown girl song Bryan was acting like he flirted with her all the time.At the end of the song,he even held her up!

Around 10.30 pm. my friends arrived back at the hotel.They decieded to wait for the ladz at the lobby.And soon,they saw Mark walking down from the elevator with 4 or 5 bodyguards and entered the Business Centre room where he used the computer to check his emails.But me and some of my friends didn't saw him 'coz I got some problem at the stadium and when me and my friends arrived to the hotel the rest of my friends at the hotel told my about Mark stay in the Business Center Room at that time.

It's took not long time I saw someone walking down from stair to the lobby. I can't believe it!! he's the only one that I remember even a bit of his hair I saw just a part of his back OMG!!!!!! Yeah.....He's Bryan!!! I'm sure...me and my friends are the first one who saw him down to the lobby 'coz when I saw him I walk as run to him and then other fans follow us to him.He's came down with some of westlife's staffs and 3-4 bodyguards.It's not long time Nicky came down by elevator to joined with Bryan and their staffs then Kian down to joined with Bryan and Nicky also. They'er drinking at the bar.

Around 11.30 pm Bryan, Kian,Anto,Paul and some of their staffs and bodyguards gonna going out...at this time I have a chance to gave a BIG pix of Kerry and some of us(me,gopper,apple and other friends) to Bryan when he saw the pix he laughing out loud 'coz it's a funny act pix of Kerry and us...He's say thank you to me with a lovely smile while Gopper have a chance to gave Mc'Donal letter and the funny stuff to Kian it's like a cat in the bag and when u touch or crush it the cat gonna scream and the bag gonna shake so when he's got it..it's shaking and screaming he's a bit of shock and then he laughing he's gave his signed and very very cute smile to Gopper and then he's gonna open Gopper's letter and gonna read it suddenly Anto took Kian,Bryan and their staffs to go out.We didn't follow them at that time.When they'er went out Gopper feel happy and she's cried out and when me and my friends saw she's cried we so shock 'coz we don't know what happened with her.

We'er so confuse and don't know what to do 'coz Nicky still drinking at the bar but Bryan and Kian went out we'er took a while to decide how to do and result is Tim and Liv must to back home, Jasmine must to send her Hong Kong's friends at their hotel,Ashura,Orney,Tucky and Pat stay at the hotel 'coz their favourite guyz staying at the hotel(Ashura and Orney fave is Nicky , Tucky fave is Mark , Pat fave is Shane) and me,Gopper and Nong decided to follow Bryan and Kian but BIG problem is we don't know where Bryan and Kian going and it's about 30 min after they go.

Gopper have an idea and she think they gonna go to Silom Road. 'coz it's very popular night place in Thailand and it's near to the hotel.We took 30 min to Silom Road. 'coz we didn't take our own car and we must to caught a bus...in total we took 1 hour to get there.We walk in and out many Soi it's took about 1 hour but didn't see Bryan and Kian even their staffs but we'er don't give up we'er keep on walking to find them and then Nong take me and Gopper to one soi in Silom Road. and we decide if we don't found them in this soi we'll back to hotel.We walking and thinking maybe they didn't here SUDDENLY!!! I saw some of their bodyguards in front of some bar.

OMG!!!!!!!!Gonna scream!!!!! Me,Gopper and Nong so happy to found them.We didn't go inside that bar but we wait them outside and a bit far from that bar 'coz we think we shouldn't ...no longer time some of fans but they'er not true fan.Do u know?? why I know they r not true fan of westlife 'coz I know them...they'er some of my friends's friend and they told me they don't like westlife but I don't know why they follow the guyz.They'er found the guyz by some people around there and they go inside to meet the guyz then Bryan,Kian and Their staffs caming out and when they got Bryan and Kian signed they'er leave the guyz.

When me,Gopper and Nong see Bryan and Kian out we so excited and nervous 'coz we so afraid about we gonna make they bad mood but SURPRISE!!!!! Bryan say hi and gave a cute smile to us Kian gave us smile also.Then they'er go inside another bar around there and we waiting them ouside again.

Just a while Bry coming out again with 2 bodyguards and Lucky me!!! I got his signed (^_^ )Yeah..yeah..yeah!!! Then he's walking around there and I follow him also he's walk and walk and suddenly he's turn back ... I almost can't turn myself back.He's walk back to that bar again and a few min he's came out again with 2 staffs and 2 bodyguards.I follow him a bit far and I turn back and go to see my friends 'coz I think he gonna back again but it's a 10 min past he didn't came back when I go to see him I didn't found him again.I think maybe he's back to hotel so I'm back to waiting for Kian with my friends in front of the bar.

About 30 min past Kian and rest of their staffs and bodyguards came out of the bar and they'er going to parking when we arrived to parking Gopper have a chance to ask Kian to take a pix with him.He and staffs didn't go anywhere after that around 10 min he's got a bad mood 'coz he's waiting for something but we don't know what's he waiting for.They'er staying there about 30 min then we saw Bryan and staffs coming.I ask Bryan to take a pix with him and he said "Sure!!" but some of bodyguards didn't hear he say and they don't let me take a pix with him (-_- )

We decide to take a Tuk-Tuk back to hotel(Tuk-Tuk is like taxi but don't have door) while we stay in Tuk-Tuk we saw Kian,Paul and bodyguard walking out and they'er cross the road and back to bar at Silom Road. again.Gopper wanna follow Kian so me and Nong told her that she got signed and pix with him but I got just signed with Bryan so Gopper decided to not follow Kian and stay with me and Nong to back to hotel with Bryan.Gopper have a magic stick for Kian but she don't give it to him yet.When Bryan's car coming out and stop a while for turn right we saw Bryan sitting near the van's door and he opened the window so Gopper gave her magic stick to Bryan and she got his pix with magic stick and cheeky smile!!!

He say hi and show magic stick to everyone around thereand when the van stop by traffic Gopper said "Do u wanna join with us??" he didn't say anything back We don't think he'll join us but.... wait!!! OMG!!!!! He's climbing out of the van and..... Gods!!!!! he get on Tuk-Tuk with us!!!!!! I gave my seat to him ... Gopper said "Bryan take a pix with her 'coz she love you so much" and push Bryan to me but longer bodyguards take him back to the van again I swear..It's true I didn't lie 'coz Gopper can took that pix but we don't have a time to take a pix with him on Tuk-Tuk 'coz we'er shock!!

The van started moving again and we follow him again too.The van and our car stop again by red sign. Gopper told me "If u wanna get a pix with Bryan u mustta go to ask him" but I was encourage to go and Gopper said again "It's your choice go now or never!!" so me and Gopper went to his van and ask him to take a pix with.I said "May I take a photo with u" and Bryan say "No" but he's just kidding me then he's say "OK" and when me smile for take a pix and Gopper count "1 2 3" he's hiding me and Gopper .I say "Plzzzz" and he's say "OK" again and Gopper count "1 2 3" he's hiding again.He's do it around 5-6 time finally I got a pix with him but it's not really good....I'm looking soooo stupid it's 'coz Bryan 'coz he's kidding and hidding me so I forgot to turn my body to camara just turn my face but it's ok...'coz it's a precious time for me. And Gopper got a pix with him also then we back to the hotel.

Bryan and staffs didn't went up to their room but they'er stay at the hotel bar and drinking again. Bryan playing paino and he even did The Beatles Medley and asked the fans who sang along with him sang many song but didn't sang own song my fave song of that night is "Right here waiting" it's wonderful song with his voice and sound.

Pat and us were wondering if we told those popstars who were drunk that we were short of money and we wanted to borrow their money, would they give us. So as we saw the opportunity coming...we had BRYAN as a superstar who was drunk,so we decided to do a little experiment.

Around 3.30 am. before Bry walked to the elevator to go up to his room.Pat walked beside him and asked "Bryan,I'm running out of money now so can I borrow you 2,000 pounds?".Bryan just turned to me instantly with a surprised face and said "What uh?".It was damn funny just to see his face then he used a stick that someone gave him and poked her.He's walking up to his room.It's time to sleep for him!!!! When he gone me and all of my friends went up to our room.

We all were so tired so we went up to our room without waiting for Kian.When we got room our friends who staying at the hotel with Nicky and waiting for the rest of westlife and we'er got a great news from our friends they'er told us ...While we'er follow Bryan and Kian..... Shane came down to joined with Nicky...Can't believe it!!!! 'coz last year he didn't came down to joined anyone after concert.And this's story at the hotel by Pat and Jasmine


Pat's story :

"Around 1.30 am.,Shane came downstair to find me *hahah - NOT!* - actually he was joining Nicky @ the bars.I think by that time,Nicky was drunk 'coz he started drinking beer for 2 hours and more than 20 bottles were served at his table .Later on,Anto came back from shopping with LOADSA stuffs and joined them.Shane was being very helpful 'coz at first before he came down,no one had the nerve to go around Nicky to even just passing letters and stuffs.But when Shane joined them,he kept looking at the fans around if anyone has anything for the boys.My friend was afraid to go in and give them her presents but Shane looked at her and he seemed to know what she want so he beckoned her and she just went in and gave them the presents.Not that Nicky wasn't being friendly or anything but he was drunk so what do you expect from him anyway!? *lol* I must warn you,when NICKY BYRNE is drunk...HE IS REALLY MAD! He asked my mate if she wants to marry him and when she said yes,he made her proposing him right away! The bodyguard had to stop him before they carried on *lol*.He even ran around the hotel's lobby like a little kid with Shane before they went to their rooms around 3 am."


Jasmine's story :

"Nicky has so many joke ... when i ask for his autograph .. he looked at my face and say NO but when Shane turned to nicky and said out " NICKY " .. he said sorry to me and gave me a sign ... What a cute hun ..... ( i mean Shane not Nicky ) and that night we ..( i mean Me, Pat ,Ashura, and Orney ) were thinking about how to get Anto autograph ..then we saw Anto walked back to lift ..then all da gals cheer me up ..so i shout his name quite loud .. he heard it and acted like he running away from me .. then he stopped and say Hi to me .... so i ask for his autograph ..for any1 who don't know him .. he look so scary sometime and he alway turn us down if we asking for taking photo with him or asking for his autograph .. but that night .. he almost say no to me .. but then i showed him his pix in Westlife in real life book so he smile at me ..and said .." Oh this pic ..ok ok ..." then he sign for me ..all of my m8 screaming ..and after that he talked to me for a couple mins ..then i said good bye to him ... and ran back to my friend .... and now most of us love Anto and planing to make Anto club .... is that cool ???"

After we told each other about story that happened....all of my friends slept but me and Gopper didn't slept that night 'coz we afraid about all the thing that happened this night will be just dreams!!!

May 23,2001

Today nothing much happened.We'er waiting at the airport for the ladz leave but everything happaned so fast.So instead we were standing around Anto and their staffs to said goodbye to them.Me, Gopper,Ashure and Apple said to Anto "See ya in Korea" 'coz we gonna go to see westlife in concert in Korea also and Anto said "OK , CYA" and gave us smiled.When the ladz coming my friends give Shane some KitKats to eat.He said "Thank you" to take KitKats but when he saw what it was.He said "Oh,chocolate! Sorry,I can't eat it.I have toothache".We don't think he's toothache but we'er think he's on diet!!!! Me and Jasmine gonna give Red-Bull to Bryan but we don't have a chance to give it to him 'coz everything was in rush!!! And when we'er send them off it's time to eat for us 'cos we didn't eat anything much when the ladz here!!!!
