Travel Experience: Singapore

Biar aku ceta dari awal hingga ke akhr... atu pun if aku ingat jua.. haha.

We booked our ticket sometime in October coz we don't want to rush and do it last minute. We had planned our journey, what to bring, where to visit, what to buy and etc. We were counting days and the adrenaline rushed so high that I couldn’t sleep properly for few days before our departure. I booked the company car to send me to the airport. Guess what? The car already arrived at my home at 5am in the morning! Our departure time was at 7.40am geeezzzz luckily I woke up so early that day. While waiting for others, I went to the ATM hoping that I could withdraw few hundreds. At least I have cash in my hand just to be on the safe side BUT the ATM machine was down! Sigh. Never mind. I had applied for the debit card which means I can withdraw at any ATM which accepts VISA card. Heaven!

So.. nazmi, acai, kimah, sherman and zul… we were in Singapore during Christmas!!! *ahax* am I skip? Anyway… the first time I realised about Singapore is…. The city is cleannnnnnnnn! I mean.. seriously…. Very cleannnn. We checked in at Carlton Hotel which is situated near to Raffles City. The hotel is near to mall and shopping complexes. I’m so amaze about Singapore! Most of the mall is so big that we sometime spent the whole day just in one mall. Geez… We went to Raffles City, Suntec, Bugis street, Bugis junction, Marina square, Funan, Sim Lim, IKEA and etc. oh oh wait... we were in Singapore for 6 days!!! Yeah… you read it… 6 DAYS!!! We spent our monay crazily and shopping till drop like there is no tomorrow. Both my foots were in pain… guys, let me remind you… DON’T GO SHOPPING WITH WOMAN IN SINGAPORE. HAHAHAHAHAHA. Seriously, it is heaven for woman to go shopping there… everywhere you see they sell clothes, bags, shoes and etc plus… the PRICE IS DAMN CHEAP FOR BRANDED LABEL. I can say… Singapore is dominant by woman shops! Sigh.

Do you read my previous post about the HTC HD2 phone? I bought it there!! HAHAHAHAHA. INI MACAM (Y)!! Sim lim square is heaven for electronic and IT stuffs. We spent thousands of dollar thereeee… crazy! I spent roughly around 1.5k there… while… acai.. she spent more than 3k…. geez… that sim lim is evil. EVILLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!! HAHAHAHAHA

Anyhow… If you are looking for halal food there… hmm… I don’t think there is many malay restaurant. We were eating fast food only. King burger. KFC. Pizza Hut. Mc’D. You name it. HAHA. Oh oh.. STARBUCKS too! But… the only thing that I dislike is… TAX!!!!!! You buy drink, TAX. You buy food, TAX. You buy chocolate, TAX. You fart, TAX. HAHAHA. Everywhere is TAX but for tourist… if you spend more than $100, you can claim the tax =)

Christmas there is soooooooooooo great!! One of the best Christmas experience =) We were at Orchard road for Christmas eve! Everybody sprayed that artificial foam which looks like the actual snow to everyone who passed the traffic light. Crazy! It was so great.

Overall… Singapore is the best damn country to visit. I can’t wait for our next vacation again! =)

P/S: Sorry.. no picture :) *I will upload it to fb... maybe*

Lepak at 1am

I was chatting all night long... I couldn't sleep early during the holidays. I want to enjoy each seconds. At 1am, i received a message from Chin. He said that some of our friends coming to his house. I thought he was just making a joke or DST is lagging to send his SMS. I replied his SMS just to make sure that we were on the right track. A few seconds later, i received another message. More convincing. I grabbed the key and went to Chin's house.

Though, it was late for 'lepak-lepak' but it didn't stop us to have fun. The road was dark and no single car had passed. It was peaceful. I accelerated the car and reached Chin's house in 10 minutes. Fir opened the door. We chat a few minutes outside the house to feel the early morning wind. I walked in and met nazmi and milin. Chin was buzy at the kitchen. He fried a few sausages and chips. Then, Fir offered me coffee. Ok... just what i needed. Caffeine.

Then, we went to the living room where Milin was watching the sickening movie of all. "Hostel part II". We were screaming like hell coz the movie was TOO VIOLENT. yes. TOO VIOLENT. They were psychopath. Then, we karaoke-ing for about an hour. Then continued with another movie. We watched 'Incredible Hulk'.

At 4:30am, we went home. Still early for me. Or because of the caffeine. The record for our 'lepak' time was going back home at 10am in the morning. That was 2 years ago when we 'lepak' at Fir's homie.

Well... that just us... we love to chill... =D ok then... use the holidays to the MAX.

Future~

I woke up at 8am sharp this morning. The weather was good. Hot. It’s a good Friday people~ but eventually a short drizzle occurred for about an hour. Thank god. It has been almost a week without raining. My car also in its ‘dirty’ state coz I haven’t got a time to wash for it. I’m TOO BUZY with ASSignments okay~ let’s not making more excuses… =D

Holiday is just around the corner… Come to me baby~ I need to devise my holidays such as going picnic, meet old friends, do something adventure, see movies and a date? Uhu… I deserve it okay~ =D but it just a simple plan coz I know this holidays = doing assignments. We don’t really enjoy as much as our buddy from other departments. *sigh*

Oil prices are all time high for the past few years. How come it becomes so high? The trade for crude oil was $2/barrel in 1970 but increasing steadily annually. On 16th Jun 2008, it reached another record of $139.89/barrel. WTH?! The Middle East gains most of the profits coz they are the main supplier of crude oil. That means Brunei also might just as well gain most of the profits. Right? No? I only know they spent $200+ millions for oil subsidy last year. That was a huge amount of money people~~ let’s save our oil! Save for the future! You don’t want to see your children suffer because of our big-headed attitude. They also deserve a good lifestyle. Right? bla bla bla...

Hm.. im thinking about you right now… what happened to us? Why? *sigh*
