Went to Singapore over the last weekend….it was meant to be a mind relaxing trip… but my mind was not controllable… kept thinking the man..been dreaming of him as well…. *sigh*…

Anyway… back to my trip to Singapore… I found that there were really really a lot of foreign workers from China, Vietnam, Burma, India, etc in SG.. I wonder why… hmmm….. it’s like stepping out of Orchard/Vivo City you can see foreigners all over the street… hardly see Singaporean… ok la.. I might be a bit exaggerated… lol… but really everywhere also can see foreigners… those from Asia one… not those ang mo…

I took night bus to Singapore on Friday night…Reached SG was Saturday 7 morning… walked to MRT station to meet up girlfriend and check in to hotel…..

#1 ~ Saw this very nice condominium on the way to MRT station… felt a sudden rush to snap a pic to daydream awhile…thinking how nice it will be if I’m able to stay there…it is really nice condo isn’t it? Looks very clean and classy…

Went for lunch after checked-in hotel…. simply choose a Taiwanese shop at Plaza Singapura…went there to check out telco’s plan as girlfriend wanted to get a new phone plan….

#2:

I ordered a spicy noodle… came with clear soup… the noodle tasted quite nice…

#3:

Girlfriend ordered pai kuat chicken rice… came with soup as well… but tastier…

#4:

#5 ~ Drinks we ordered - ice lemon tea and soya milk:

>> Overall food was nice… and they were ready in minutes…. bravo… but have to go order at the counter one.. no1 will take order from you… hmm…..

My first day look….changed into a dress after checked in hotel…

#6:

After that went to Chinatown…. saja saja walk walk… bought a dress at $10 only… but forgot to snap pic… lol… the dress was meant for my girlfriend’s beach wedding… first time attend beach wedding… very excited

#7:

>> It has slightly more tourist there… same like KL’s Petaling Street… you can find all sorts of souvenirs here… but I didn’t buy any cuz no $$ to spend on souvenirs already….

Dinner at this Han’s place at Marina Place…. suppose wana walk to Merlion there.. but girlfriend don’t know the place… and we kinda lost at Raffles Place-Marina Place… then my leg was pain cuz of my shoe… ended up having dinner inside Marina Place…..need to self service sumore… lol… I felt that it’s like a trend in SG… order + pay first… then the food will be sent to you… hmm… easier for the staff…

#8 ~ Ice Milo:

#9 ~ Fried rice + egg:

#10 ~ Chicken Omelet:

>> The portion of the food was so bigggg…. I wasn’t really hungry and thought of ordering an omelet… but turned out the portion was so big… super full man! arghh!!! Want to keep fit also cannot…

I wore this shoe to SG…. leg was super pain after whole day walk… so I bought a beach slipper at Marina Place… at $9.90… felt so much better and relax after removed my shoe… lol…..

#11 ~ My shoe -> Good to see.. not good to wear:

>> I even took off my shoe at the MRT station cuz leg really too pain d… beh tahan d la! Aiyo…I’m not that famous oso.. so… no one will recognize me girlfriend laugh at me… lol…

#12 ~ New beach slipper:

Sunday went to Vivo City…. I have never been there…. so went there for a walk… and don’t want to waste $ go to Sentosa/Universal Studio… so.. not other choice but to go Vivo City..

#13:

Lunch at this mussel shop… wanted to try their Spicy Mussel… but …. the spicy tasted more like nasi lemak sambal than spicy taste from the mussel I had tasted in Australia last year.. can’t compare the spicy mussels here with Australia… Australia one really nice… yummy… thou the mussels size were smaller in AUS but the gravy was nicer… yummier! yum yum…

#14 ~ The Mussel Guy:

#15 ~ Cream soup:

#16 ~ Spicy Mussel:

#17 ~ Cream Mussel:

>> We ordered the spicy mussel came with Free 250gm mussel…. so we ordered the 250gm to be cooked in cream taste… tasted better than the spicy mussel…

#18 ~ Chicken Teriyaki:

>> This meal was a set that comes with the cream soup + tea…not very nice cuz the rice was cold and hard…  

#19 ~ My second day look:

Went for a movie after that… Prince of Persia… you can read full details on my last post.

Walk walk at Vivo City… then go to this Fruit Paradise Tart house for tea…

#20:

#21 ~ Ordered Orange + Carrot Fresh Squeeze Juice:

And #22 ~ a piece of Chocolate Banana Tart:

>> Not nice at all.. .felt kinda kena cheated… not much of the cake… more on the creamy… oh ya! This tart was originally from Japan. Looks can be deceiving… so… it only has the looks… but taste so so only… I forgot to snap pictures for the rest of the tarts… really looks super nice and tasty….

#32 ~ My final day look:

#33 ~ My flight back to Penang:

>> It was a fully booked flight… damn crowded….

*sigh*… this was the first time I took a flight myself… normally I will have company with me… but not this time… and I even forgotten my pills… again normally I will have my anti-vomitting, anti-dizziness pills with me… cuz I will feel dizzy when I take a plane… especially if the pilot don’t know how to land/fly the plane….

Lucky me… this time I didn’t feel sick cuz I slept all the way till the plane almost landed… too tired…

I was really fortunate to have supportive friends in SG…. thanks to their accompany and hospitality I had the opportunity to visit SG again… thou I was suppose to free my mind and my stupid mind doesn’t listen to me… but… I’m glad that I went to SG…

Thou this trip added a hole in my pocket… but… whatever la! Don’t care! Just spend nia la! lol…

When I’m there.. I misses here.. when I’m on the plane.. I misses SG … *sigh*…. so complicated………

This is another out-dated blog. I don’t have time to post it cuz too many blogs waiting to be posted before this one.. lol.. (sounds like I’m so busy.. but I’m really so busy ma )

Anyway, the main purpose was to attend Nuffnang Asia Pacific blog awards dinner. Iwas not one of the lucky winner. I’m just a sleeping member of Nuffnang Malaysia. LoL…

Anyway, it was a grand event and I won’t be posting much info about that cuz too many people blog about it. I’m representing my company to attend…so nothing much to blog about also… if I’m one of the nominated blog owner then it will be a different story. LOL…

We reached there around 5pm. Straight to hotel check-in. Then went to search for something to eat.

The hotel’s dinner.. ahem *cough* was not that filing at all. The soup not bad. The appetizer also not bad. The main course also not bad. Of all that were not bad… they were bad cuz they were not filling at all. The dessert was too sweet for me.. and so small piece. If it tasted nice, then sure not enough la! But lucky it didn’t taste nice at all… so… small piece was enough I just ate the strawberry only… what a waste >.<

Super tired that day. Dozed off once I hit the bed. The hotel on the other hand, was really nice. We stayed in Link Hotel situated at Tiong Bahru there… very simple and cozy. The funny part, we were on the same table as the Link Hotel’s staff. LOL…

The next day we had a very simple breakfast then off we go to meet up Erin. It’s been like 3 years since I last saw her. Well… I met her when I was on my Work and Travel USA programme to Sandusky, Ohio, USA. We were housemates back then. Then she went to Berkeley for her studies and I back to Malaysia for my studies. I kept telling her I will be going SG very soon… but the soon was 3 years later… LOL.. so funny…

Missy and I took MRT to her house. She came to meet us up. We put the luggage back home then out to Haji Lane.

Haji Lane is the latest shopping places for Singaporean. The clothing there was unique and they even have blog shops there. The design was quite special. But pricing wise… hmm…only some were worth to buy. I saw one nice shoe.. wanted to buy… which is SGD 54… Missy asked me come back Penang to buy cuz might be cheaper… but till now I can’t find the similar one.. sad.. blame her

After Haji Lane, we went to the newly opened shopping mall ION mall @ Orchard Road.

Dinner at this cafe.. forgot the name…should be P.S Cafe… need booking one >.< Environment very nice… cosy and quiet…

Erin’s friend was working that night and we got free fries from him while we were waiting for the boys for almost 1 hours!!!

Nah! These two guys made us waited for them 1 hour – Marcus and Britmand >.<

>> Met them in Work and Travel USA programme as well… Britmand in the same department as Sherine and Erin, Marcus and I were in the same department, same food stall

After dinner we walked around that area and took a cab to Orchard … need to use MRT back home ma… Met Sheryl, Lionel, Marisa, etc at Orchard. hehe…Didnt take any pictures.

The next day we went to the mall near MRT station for our lunch. But the restaurant didn”t allow us to take pictures… sien… I took the food picture only one nia… sad….

Time to go home… sad sad… 1 weekend over d… Erin gave me one Victoria Secret lotion… which she promised to send me ages ago… lol… but we didn’t have check in luggage… and the lotion was 200ml… >.< I tried to purchase some liquid in the duty free shops… but they directly sealed the bag.. so I couldn’t put the lotion in… in the end… I bought 2 small bottles fr Guardian which cost me 1.50 SGD!!! MoThaFuCker… so Freaking EXPENSIVE LA!!! Bo huat..I need to save the VS Lotion cuz it’s Erin’s presents to me..

So it looks like this:

There goes my weekend…. a very very short and rush trip to Singapore. But thanks to Erin and Mom that allowed us to stay at their place.. Thanks to them! Cheers!
