Losing myself in Bangkok

So when I arrived the guy from the reception spoke really bad English, we still understood eachother and told me that my room will be available in 3 hours. I left him my bag to keep it and I left for a first discovery of the city by having a look at the big map in the lobby and just starting to walk. There was something written like 'shopping complex' and I reckon window shopping is always good to beat time to death (can one say that in English?) I found a nice café where I studied a bit more Chinese symbols, when I noticed two young Asians being annoyed by an older Asian who kept on talking. Her eyes got stuck on the table and his were somewhere in the air, while the old guy continued with his blablabla. That was kind of funny because when she noticed me staring at the situation she had to laugh.
I finished my coffee and plucked up my courage to have a look at the mistyrious complex at the opposite side. The building had 6 storeys and it was very wide. There were so many Thais and sooo many shops and it was really tight to walk through. Its really hard to explain how it was. 
For dinner I went to a restaurant Tripadvisor recommended me. In the internet I checked how to get there, very easy with the Metro. But unfortunately I got out of the train a station too early, which forced me to walk 20 minutes. On my way back I drove two stations too far... You know what I found then? An amazing shopping center, it was huge and its architecture stunning!!! I walked through the building taking pictures from everything. Amaaazing! When I finally decided to go back I drove one station too less. What the... So I walked back. The meal I had in the Rock was good but I was alone in the restaurant, which was kind of stupid, i felt like they're observing every bite of mine...   I ordered ricenoodles with coconutmilk, pineapple and shrimps. It was reeally goood!
