To breathe is to love ♥

2012 to go place: Wawawa - Bistro by the Reservoir

2012-02-14T00:20:00.000+08:00

9 February 2012; Our special day

Classic Chicken Cordon Bleu

Cajun Chicken

Food was pretty good, albeit a tad too expensive for a bistro. Qf calls this place a graveyard because of the location (Bedok reservoir). Well, I would say it's a nice place to chill afterall. Just that they're quite unlucky that many people like to choose to die there.

After that we caught the billionaire at I12 katong. Both our first visit there! Followed by some dessert at 老香港.

Simple yet very happy night. Happy 2.5 years my dear ♥

2012 to go place: Raindrops Cafe

4 February 2012

A day that I was feeling reeeally down, but I'm glad that I was surrounded with people I love, which made the end of my day so much better.

One of the 2011 to go place that I didn't fulfill thus moving it to this year's list!

Really small and cosy place. Perfect for a girls night out

LOVE THIS

Thank you for coming. BFF

Mushroom Aglio Olio, which according to Zhuki, is the best pasta she has ever ate

My mini burgers. One of them is beef, one is chicken and one is fish. I love varieties! And they taste great

Weeting's fish&chips

Qf came to find me tooo ♥ Some fav icecream waffer at Udders

My boy with his new hairstyle! Hahaha

Thankful for people who cares ♥

An eventful day to remember

2012-02-13T23:55:00.000+08:00

28 January 2012

It was 初六 that day and my granny asked us over for dinner. Qf was invited too so we made our way there together

Uncle gave me a pair of USS tickets. Omg I'm over the moon!!!

After dinner I left to meet my friends and Qf went for his friend's birthday party also. That period of time, it was spreading at twitter that cover charged is waived for AMS students to ku de ta because of Gary. I whatsapped Gary and he confirmed that it's true. So we decided to go!

Dinner at Mr Curry

My fav Hanito!

We made our way to MBS after that

When we reached there, there was a freaking long queue and we were so worried because we heard that cover charge is waived only till 10.30pm and it was around 10.15pm or so already. There were SO many AMS students there! It's like a course thing or something.

When we queue till halfway, some of the AMS students who managed to get up already came and tell us that we can get up to the skypark only, but not INTO Ku de ta. They said that our names are not in the guestlist Ohmygod, it's like we kena scammed! So eventually we left the queue and decided to go rebel. I didn't mind since it there was a lollipop event and girls can get in free!

We were waiting for cab at MBS and nicole suggested that 5 of us try to squeeze into 1 cab. She said it's dark so the uncle can't see. LOL. The cab came and we all dashed in and acted super normal and all. But the uncle totally realised and asked one of us to get down HAHAHA freaking joke.

while queuing

Joslyn didn't manage to get a stamp in. The super gl bouncer said she had to dress like a girl. Like super wth! BUT... we got our own ways and managed to get her in for free. MUAHAHAH damn funny. We were all so scared when the bouncer was checking for the stamp. She managed to pass! Woohoo!

So we party party party. Super alot of AMS people were there. Was fun but dancefloor was too damn crowded as usual! Hate it so after a while went back to the tables to sit down. Legs were damn tired

Hc came to fetch us home and I got locked outside my house :( Waited for qf to come to my rescue.

Ok, end of my eventful day. This is a post that I want to read back and laugh. Hahahahah

Jslee; First to turn 20!

2012-02-07T02:23:00.002+08:00

Finally the projects chionging period is over! We're nearer and nearer to graduation omg. Happy yet sad at the same time~

Since I'm free now, shall update about Jingshen's 20th birthday! (which is quite long ago hahaha)

17th January 2012

After school we made our way to Laselle!

While waiting for Huixin, Joseph and Sam, we sat outside on the steps. So gossip girl style~

Qf is yawning as usual!

Dinner place: 15 minutes

Hc couldn't make it so Jane included him by taking out his pics HAHA!

Some of the foood:

Since it's his 20th, we made him do some dares. First is to have to finish the whole cake in one mouth!

Which was pretty manageable for him......

The next task is to kiss Likyong HAHAHAH. Poor thing. Liky was like "Omg, 关我什么事“ HAHAH TOO DAMN BAD!!

The only picture that I can post without getting killed by Js. And qf is behind laughing like siao. The whole scene is freaking hilarious! Laugh till I teared!

Some bro hugs hahahahah

And the hug he really wanted~~~~ LOL

This bhb shirt was bought by me!!! Muahahahah

Presents time~

Group pictures!

The gurls~

And the guys. (spot pk being so creepy)

This looks like a family portrait!

Consequences for taking such disgusting pictures: Strangled by gf

We were reeeeally noisy in the restaurant. Thank goodness nobody seemed to care about us so we continued to zi high and have our own fun. Twas a great night. Great company great food. What more to ask for? Celebrating birthdays together is one of the best things that friends do for one another. Hope we'll never lose this culture :)

Night ended with 9 of us squeezing in a car and a bumpy ride home!

Love my friends <3

Happy dragon year! Huat ah!

Contented with life :)

The longest 2D1N ever

2012-01-16T23:32:00.000+08:00

The past weekend was spent in BKK doing some crazy shopping. Although it's just a 2D1N trip, it really feels much longer than that! Prolly because we made use of all the time we had to shop, that the day felt longer!

Up close to sunrise! So beautiful

We got the overwing exits row yayyyy :)

Don't understand how some people can sleep from the time they seat down, till landing! (referring to the guy beside me)

Nice effects thanks to Mr Sunshine

After 2 hours, we arrive at Suvarnabhumi!!

Azfar and Nicole took the same flight with us there

SUPER long queue at the immigrations. Low efficiency!!

Took the train and here we are at our hotel: Baiyoke Boutique! Very close the the train station and the shopping areas

Welcome drink

Since we couldn't get the rooms till 2pm, we went to shop first!

Shopped the whole of Pratunam area. My legs were seriously aching badly. Even after I ate muscle relaxants, they didn't help!! And every single time I need to walk up or down a step, IT TORTURES ME!!!!! T-T

It's finally 2pm, we bought some street food and went back to the hotel to get our rooms!

Jiang jiang! Pretty satisfied with this hotel, but there were some downsides too

Nice comfy bed^^

Street food that we bought! Swear these chicken wings are the best!!!!!!!!!!!! Love it!! 15 baht each only ^^

Phad thai

Oyster with egg

Fried fishball

Kang kong

Sweet corn

Watermelon

Tom Yum soup!

The street food were really yummy and we all had a satisfied lunch! Yummzzzz

Let me digress a little and share with you the downsides of Baiyoke Boutique:

1. The lift stops at alternate levels. Meaning that if your room is at 6th floor and you press 6, the lift door opens and you are in between level 6 and 7. You'll have to walk down a flight of stairs to reach your level. This is so not handicap friendly. And for this trip, I actually consider myself as a handicap because of my aching legs. Imagine the pain I have to go through!!!

2. Shower sucks. The water is reeeeally small and the temperature is so hard to control. NAYYYYY

3. No free wifi. The staffs told us on the first day that the wifi was down. Then on the second day I realised that we can finally log in, so asked for the user and pw. The staff told me I had to pay for it! Wifi is so important to me. It is a MUST criteria when I book a hotel

Other than that, everything was pretty much alright. The staffs were friendly, and the location was good.

Continue on Bkk!! So we left our rooms after resting for a while and went to shop at Platinum mall! Like what everybody said, prices have increased. It's no like 100-200baht now. Stuffs are starting from 200 baht! We still got some stuffs but not as much as last time :/ But what I'm happy with is the increase of cheap 100-120baht sandals! :D

Platinum closes really early, like around 8pm. We didn't know where to eat, so headed to MBK. And.... we took a tuk-tuk! (LOL, I love saying this because it rhymes!)

Wanted to eat at this ramen place but the queue was madly long. So we settled at the curry place that we ate the previous time we were here. It's damn yummy and it's now available in Sg too! ^^

Salad that I've already finish eating HAHA

Someone eyeing on the food!

The sausages look like fingers! Freaky~~

This one is mine!!! Looks yummz right!!

After dinner we shopped at the night market opposite MBK. Super long stretch of never ending shops!!!!! They've got nice stuffs there but not very cheap as well. I bought my most expensive buy of this trip there: A pair of ribbon T-bar flats at 320baht! They're really pretty!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Worth ever baht of mine heheheh

Cabbed back to the hotel and the cabby guy was so nice! Walked out once again to get some corn (Jane's addicted to it hahaha) and headed back to the hotel to rest. Sooooo tired! Bathed and packed a little before heading to bed.

Next morning, Zhuki and I headed for buffet breakfast while the pigs sleep away. We've got different schedules for the day because zhuki and I had to take an earlier flight back for my sis birthday celebration. The girls are gonna head to chatuchak (JEALOUS)

Slipped a goodbye note under their door!

The nothing-fantastic-breakfast

Continued shopping till we had no money left

Saw this 20XL shirt. It's SO DAMN HUGE that I feel like buying it to try and see how it looks like on me HAHA

Ham&egg pie from Macs. DAMN YUMMY

Checked out and made our way to the airport~

Zhuki is madly in love with this doughnut which to me was quite normal. Sometimes I don't understand my sis.... Haha!

Lunch in the transit area.

We walked through the entire terminal and if you've ever been to the Bkk's airport you would know how ginormously huge the terminal is. And we almost missed our flight because of that! Had to run to our gate which was the last gate!!!!

And.... the plane was delayed on ground in the parking bay for 1 hr -.-

The skies are soooo beautiful. One of the reasons why I love working in the skies. It just seems like everytime you're up there, you escape for a while. No forms of communications, you can kind of forget your troubles on ground for that short while and embrace the beautiful skies. <3 In the day you can admire the beautiful sun and at night, you can gaze at the amazing stars! The sky is such a wonderful place to be at, no?

But oh well, you'll have to face the reality again one day. Which is what I'm facing now......................... Welcome back to reality!!!!

On a side note, can't wait for cny and collect as money angpaos as possible. Muahahahahahahaha

HUAT AH!!

2012-01-13T05:33:00.000+08:00

Happy 888th day Qf! Lets huat together!

Time check: 5.30am.
Gonna head out for the airport soon! Going to BKK to for the next 2D1N to settle on new year clothings! Hehehehe. Excited much! But legs hurting like a bitch currently due to napfa. Urghhh, I shop it doesn't affect my crazy shopping spree later on!

Have fun and enjoy your Friday the 13th everyone! ^^

First week of 2012

2012-01-09T23:58:00.001+08:00

2/1/2012, Monday
My very first 2012 to go place: Big Bad Wolf

Located at the peaceful Katong area, big bad wolf is one of the places I would chill with my gfs on a random night!

Super nice beer!

The burgers were great!! Love the bread and the chicken was tender too!

Qf's cottage pie.

Though it's really unique to have mashed potato on top, I didn't really like it that much. The burgers were much more worth it. It's really good! I will wanna go back for the burgers again!

Cute chairs

3/1/2012, Tuesday

No blues for us on the first day of school. Because P901 goes to Geylang after school!

Dinner at a shop near Kallang Mrt

And it's time for some durians!!

Ordered 9 durians and got 2 for free. Soooo many we couldn't even finish them!

I like durians but will tend to get sick of it after 3 pieces!

The grandmother's myths of washing hands with the husk to remove the smell from your hands. Well, to me it works..... but just temporary! The smell will come back eventually

And a group picture to end off the awesome night!

After activity: Mahjong with Azfar, Nicole and Joseph. We're like Mj khakis for life! Hahahah! Got so lethargic towards the middle of the game. Must be because qf and I always team up and will take over each other. Now half a game tires me! Gotta get my momentum back. Btw, I emerged as the only winner of the night ^^

6/1/2012, Friday

Finally did a flight after more than a month of hiatus from flying.Was pretty scared because the CIC zapped me before!!! LOL. Turned out to be a really fun flight, and the captain who is from Taipei ordered 便当 for us!! Really nice of him!

Btw I had a chance to get down the aircraft when we arrived at Taipei and it was sooooo cold!!!!!! Brrr!

Yummy 便当! You jelly??? Hehehhe

The pork one, which I like more!

This is the chicken one

Justin gan! Who called me bimbotic princess throughout the flight. Kns, I where got lor. I do my work okay! Just that I do it gracefully~ Hahahaha

Twas a freaky flight........... Lazy to elaborate though! Haha!

7/1/2012, Saturday

Robert's 21st birthday. Celebrated with the most expensive buffet in my life. $49.90++ (but the birthday boy absorbed 20bucks for each person :O) It was a long way there which didn't seem that long because I was chatting with Teri throughout! The restaurant was at Bukit Timah and after alighting the bus we still had to walk quite a distance before reaching this ulu yet nice place. It's feels damn atas, like only rich people belongs there.

I'm not a fan of Sashimi, in fact have never tried it before because it's just too damn disgusting to me. It's just like how you wouldn't eat a chicken raw. This buffet features free flow sashimi which robert INHALES them as if it's air. Crazy! Hahahaha. Overall, I think my presense there is a waste of money hahahahaha.

Picture with birthday boy!

After that we didn't know where to go and somehow ended up at Kenneth's place HAHA. Damn random. Talked cock and I played with gougou! Cuuuute!

Robert, Vincent, Qf and I decided to end the night with Mj! Which I lost 12 bucks in.... Boooohooooo :(

8/1/2012, Saturday

Only went to bed at about 7am but couldn't fall asleep because the sky was kind of bright already. And when I can finally start to fall asleep, my alarm rang. Time to go Joslyn's place for project. Omgggosh, only 1 hour of sleep :(

So Qf sent me there, and sent me back (hahahaha xinfu is me) and got my subway craving fixed! Super cold weather, perfect stay-in day. Qf and I did and completed our reports. Yay, productive is us ^^

Lastly, Macs drive-though for some sinful desserts.

I'll take a mouth of my ice cream, then feed Qf one mouth of his while he drives and the cycle continues.

Simple days like this seems so perfect, ss long as I'm with you! Cheesy much! Hehehehehe

Stepping into 2012

2012-01-03T01:21:00.000+08:00

2011 New year's eve

Marina Bay > Amazing fireworks > Crazily ridiculous crowds > Almost an hour of walking and squeezing > Yellow Jello > Getting a little tipsy over 2 cups of beer and some jelly (as usual) > A teeny weeny bit of nonsensical laughings > Home!

That spells my new year's eve with the people I love. Probably the last 2011 post!

School starts tomorrow. *Inserts sian face* Bye!

My 2011

2011-12-31T13:47:00.001+08:00

My 2011 was awesome! With all these great things that happen, I don't ask for anything more

1. Got a new camera

Love it, because it always captures all the good memories of 2011 and of course the coming 2012!

2. Got to try out air stewarding

Not the best airline to be with, but I'm really happy to be given this chance to experience flying as a flight attendant. Plus, made many new friends too! At least I checked out one of the to-do-things-before-I-die: to be an air stewardess!

3. Finally passed my driving and got a license!

4. Dream come true

Going to BKK with P901 was really a dream come true to me. (Not really anymore since I'm now in Tiger, can travel so often) But at that time, I was really SOOOOO excited and everything. Gosh. Of course, we shopped like crazy and had so much fun in that 4D3N. It was a blast!

5. Finally got enough of Rilakkumas

Not that I don't like Rilakkuma anymore, it's just that if I buy anymore of them, My bed is gonna explode! So now I'll try to tell myself to stop buying rilakkuma stuffs! 2012 resolutions yo! Because I know it's always hard to stop myself hahahhaa

6. Trips with my boy

Stepping out of the country and breathing some foreign air with the person I love the most, seriously... what more can I ask for?

7. Trips with the girls

Genting, Macau, Zhuhai, Hongkong. Look forward to more traveling in 2012!

8. Family

Always here, and always will be :)

9. Conquered the most important project and presentation of the 3 years

Process was tough, but ending was sweet!

So that kind of summarised my whole 2011! Lazy to dig more pictures out already. But as you can see, it was a really happy year! ^^ Thank you everyone who has taken part in my 2011, thanks for the memories! Come 2012, I want to start it off positively! I want to travel more and I want to take up guitar lessons.

Alright everyone, enjoy the last day of 2011! Let's rejoice and party! Hahahhahahaha

2011 to go place: Hatched

2011-12-29T23:58:00.036+08:00

With 2011 coming to an end, I'm glad that MOST of my 2011 to go places are checked. Have yet to finish going to all places. But oh well, I came out with that list mainly because I was bored and just in case we were free and didn't have a place to go. Therefore I shall move my remaining 2011 to go places to 2012 to go places to continue fulfilling it!

Last night I randomly mentioned breakfast to Qf and he agreed! :) Was choosing between Hatched and Strictly pancakes and our last decision was Hatched

To me, I think Hatched is soooo overrated. It's not THAT nice... and so expensive. Regretted. All the while I was thinking: should've went to strictly pancakes instead. But oh well, the grass is always greener on the other side~ Should really try strictly pancakes one day!

After breakfast, we fetched another rilakkuma home. Happy die me! But since my bed is flooded with so many rila plushies already, I've decided to reside him at Qf's house. (Which I'm kind of regretting now!) Feels uneasy because Qf may "abuse" him! Hmm, but new rila being there means I'll have something to cuddle when I'm there. Pros and cons!

He's just too cute to resist!!!

New found BFF!

Qf's family went to take family portrait and they were all dressed smartly!

First time seeing him in a suit! Looks as though he's attending someone's wedding

He had to bend down if not the mirror will make him look like his head kena cut off!

Dinner with his family and the third last day of 2011 has come to an end. Hmmmmmm....

Krabi escape day III & IV

2011-12-28T01:03:00.000+08:00

18.12.2011

Woke up at 6+ am (freaking early) eggciting for the full day tour that we booked!

Had breakfast and waited for the private van to pick us up

The tour that we booked!

Only inside the van then we realised that we booked the wrong tour. The one that I really really wanted to do is elephant trekking. And we both misread the brochure and thought that this tour has it. Zzzzz was really sad and disappointed. Tried to ask the tour guide if it is possible to change but he said we can't. Oh well, all we can do is just go through this tour. Blame it on our carelessness :(

In the van with 90% angmohs

First stop: Emerald pool

We had to walk 800m before reaching the pool

Tada this is the emerald pool. Yes very beautiful... Swam inside for a while. It was really slippery in there

Moved on to the next place: Hot spring

Was quite excited as I've never been to a hot spring before.

The water was about 40 degrees celcius. Quite manageable for me. In fact, I feel it wasn't warm enough. I usually bathe in this temperature. Hahaha. Qf, on the other hand, felt that it was super hot!

Should've brought something to change. My jumper was all wet!

Next up: Lunch at a fishing park

It was my first time really eating tom yum goong. And this one here was pretty yummy. The spiciness was mild and the sourness is just right. Mmmmm~

After we have finished our meal, one of the owners there came and took our leftover and shoved it all into the sea. We were shocked and thrilled when a bunch of big fishes flocked towards the food.

In the next 5 mins, everyone took their plates and shoved everything down. Smart of the owners, now they don't need to clear the plates!

Next and last destination: Tiger cave temple

We were allocated about 2 hours to climb up to the top. The guide told us that the view up there is magnificent.

Qf and I tried our best to climb, at first the steps were big but as we go on, it became super small and steep!

At about 162 steps, WE GAVE UP. LOL. Damn loser.

Before heading back down.

You would have thought going down was easier. But, it was way harder! Took so long to get down and by the time we were down, I swear my legs were trembling. I know it sounds so weak, but they trembled so badly for like the next hour!

Many monkeys around the temple

Super cute watermelon icecream!! Why is it not available in sg?!

Sat down and people/monkey watched

To kill time, we walked around~

Hens and roosters wondering around aimlessly

Loser us went back to the van to wait for the rest to be back

After that, the van sent us back to the hotel. Wash up and we rested before heading out for dinner.

We had dinner at this really nice restaurant. It was happy hour and all cocktails were at 100baht (about 4 sgd) only!

Qf ordered Magarita

I had Ao Nang sunset. Which sucks. Tasted like medicine :(

Cabonara for me. Nice but a tad too salty

Prawns with cashew nuts

Pineapple rice

Chrismas tree!!! ♥

Walked around and we saw this woman selling kong ming laterns so we decided to buy one! It's only at 100baht.

Wrote down our wishes and we let it off along the beach.

This guy's photography skills suck!

Such nice view :')

Goodbye! Please make our wishes come true!

Some handmade souvenirs I bought back for the girls

We also did some Thai massage which according to Qf, wasn't as good as the first one he did. Oh well, we should've gone back to that one!

Night ended with us watching the CORRECT Jack and Jill (we went to buy again HAHA). Which we fell asleep. HAHA why so tired!!!!! The movie was funny though!

19.12.2011: Last day in Krabi

Were almost late for our breakfast. Back to the room to pack up and it's time for us to check out and leave :(

Reminds me of my elephant trekking :(

Good bye small hotel

Since we still had time before the airport transfer van take us there, we roamed around the streets of Ao Nang for the last time

Best Mango juice I've drank so far! It really tastes so sweet and refreshing that after finishing one cup, we bought one more!

Tempted to eat the pancakes again. Really yummy!

On our way to airport. Feeling saddddd

Greetings from Krabi airport. (My bag is freaking heavy!!)

While waiting for the plane

Stupid qf, don't know why so addicted to temple run

Super cute angmoh babies kept us entertained!

Boarded the plane and back to Sg we go

Dark gloomy singapore skies. Compare it to Krabi skies, what a big difference.

Tell me again, why do all good things have to come to and end?????

I MISS KRABI!!!

Krabi escape day II

2011-12-27T02:55:00.002+08:00

17.12.2011

Woke up in the morning feeling soooo refreshed. Having enough rest feels so good!! ^^ Buffet breakfast :)

After breakfast we decided to go up to the pool since the weather was so good

Someone is planking. Hahahaha

Clear skies + pretty clouds = Yay! This is when I realised how much I love the sun. The warmth that seeps through your skin. It feels so great!

Was reading my book! So therapeutic :')

Tried to go into the pool which was so freaking cold (again). Will not stop emphasizing on the fact that it is sooo cold. Plus there were like dead flies inside. So turned off :(

We were just relaxing by the pool till it began drizzling. So we had to go back to our rooms

Washed up and the rain stopped yay! goooodie. So off we went to the shopping streets again to explore more.

Did manicure at this random shop while qf did foot massage. He was super happy with it!

Till he fell asleep. hahaha

My manicure wasn't that good though. The lady wasn't that professional. She didn't know how to do nail art and her painting skills were so so only. But, she cut my cuticles and massaged my hand like a typical classic manicure so I'm still quite satisfied.

Me posing with my freshly painted nails.

Walked on and saw this pretty beach

Settled down for lunch at this nice looking restaurant. Seashells under the table.

Cream of asparagus + onion rings

My omelette rice. I love how they do their omelette!

Qf's i-forgot-what-this-is. Yummy though! Food in Krabi is relatively cheap. Especially Thai food. Yummz

After lunch we walked and walked and walked and walked till we were abit tired so we settled down at starbucks to chill a little!

Starbucks there is more exp than Sg's one

Tired us walked back to the hotel and rested abit. Since it was a Saturday, we realised that there's a night market at Krabi town (only open during weekends). So we booked a private van from our hotel to take us there. That cost us 300 baht (about 13 sgd) each which is cheaper than taking a cab there.

We were supposed to be driven there by a van. However this lady came in a pickup truck and told us that we will be changing to a van later. So half of the journey, we were on the pickup truck.

VERY COLD!!!!!!!!!! The wind is just.... omgosh. Shivers

After about 30mins journey, we reached the night market. There were really interesting food there!

Such a big fish I wonder who will eat it

Super adorable sushi

Authentic Phad thai

There were many nice clothes at the walking street too but the shopkeepers will just anyhow name you a ridiculous price especially if you're a tourist. Like one dress can cost up to 500 baht (about 21 sgd). How ridiculous is that?! I'm comparing the prices to Bangkok since both are Thailand. So my only buy of the night was a leopard prints flats at 130 baht (about 5.50 sgd) only! A good buy I think

Left the night market at 9pm, with a super full stomach. So full that I feel like puking! And we smell so disgusting after leaving the night market I couldn't wait to bathe.

After a bath, we both did masks while watching pirated DVDs. Opps! Hahahaha. And we were damn dumb. We wanted to buy Jack and Jill acted by Adam Sandler but end up buying the wrong Jack and Jill. Which sucks!! LOL.

Krabi escape day I

2011-12-23T23:35:00.001+08:00

Nowadays all my posts are about traveling! I'm seriously like addicted to traveling or something! Love traveling so much that even when I just came back to Singapore, I'm thinking of where to head to next. :P

16.12.2011- 19.12.2011: KRABI!

Just one day after term test ended, Qf and I made our way to Krabi. Need to destress like right away! Heh heh

My super inhumanely heavy bag. I can't decide which clothes to bring so I ended up packing like 8 or 9 sets of clothing there! My bag is like 3 times the weight of Qf's. And he had to suffer by carrying it for me. Hehehehe

We were traveling on standby tickets and the krabi flight has a full load. So I thought of an alternative to take the Phuket flight first then make our way to Krabi from there.

First time taking a plane with Qf! We got the overwing seats yay!

Biiiiiiig leg room :)

So after about 1 hr 15 mins, we arrived at Phuket! Booked a private car to send us over to Krabi. 2.3k baht flew off like that. Sigh!

The whole journey took about slightly less than 2 hours. The driver was quiet yet friendly. Haha, a lil contradicting!

Latest addiction: Leopard printz!

Boring long car rides. Thank goodness it was a smooth ride and there wasn't any motion sickness

Yippeeee, arrived at our hotel at 12ish! Early check-in. (赚到 LOL). We were staying at The Small Hotel (funny name) which is located at Ao Nang area.

Sad that there wasn't a bath tub :(

Jacuzzi right outside our room. But we didn't really use it because the water is too daaaamn cold EVERY SINGLE DAY. I swear! Everyday I will try to dip my leg in hoping it isn't that cold. But will be greeted with the same cold water without fail. Zzzzz

I wanted to take a picture of the bed but a fat pig just pounced onto the bed -.-

Settled down, used wifi for a while, explored the pretty small room before we felt hungry and went out to find food!

We had lunch at this restaurant which was just by the beach

Watermelon shake! :>

Nice sweet tasting Beer. I hate beer that are bitter. Ok, I don't like anything that's bitter

Qf's fried rice

My phad thai

We also ordered an omelette but the picture was corrupted. :(

So after lunch, took a tuk tuk to the "shopping" area to walk around. It was drizzling and although the guy wasn't driving very fast, the wind was really really strong. AND VERY COLD!! I almost became a snowman. I mean snowoman

Cute typical Thailand Ronald Macdonald (There is a rain drop on my lens! So irritating)

Asked Qf to take with Ronald and he was like "don't want lah, so paiseh" So not spontaneous hor he??? So I sort of had to "force" him to take the pic hahaha

Yummy juicy looking corn

Super cute vintage looking volkswagen!

& we did some supermarket shopping

Pk, I didn't know you own a minimart!

The shopping street mainly sells beach wear and many many pretty looking bikinis!!! But price-wise.... Sighhhhh... So exp!! (Compared to BKK). Lika scam tourist :(

Tired us walked back to our hotel

Bought Pancakes outside!

Yummzzz!

Qf bought Mac crispy, and I bought cheese fries from macs. But when we reached the hotel and start eating everything is sort of soggy due to the rain. Macs in Krabi is more ex than in Sg btw!

I went out to the reception desk to get the adapter and when I came back, qf passed me this:

Early christmas present from him! (He always gives me present early.... Haha!) Love it ♥

Explored the hotel abit. There's a "library" at the second floor and a swimming pool at the last floor. The swimming pool is veeeery beautiful at night!!!! Too bad I forgot to take a pic. So Qf and I changed to our swim wear and got ready to swim! In the end, I didn't even step into the pool because it was TOO FREAKING COLD as usual. Like seriously... Dipped my legs in and I already started shivering.

So since we were in our swim wear, we decided to use the jacuzzi outside our room. Which was very cold as well. Qf was in the pool already, shivering.. And he had to forcefully pull me down! Urghhh.... After like less than 10 mins, he asked me "why are we torturing ourselves?!" And I was like "YAHHHH". So we quickly went back and bathe. LOL. Was so cold that I keep using the hair dryer to keep myself warm!

For dinner, we ordered room service! Hehehe shioks. I had chef salad while Qf had green curry (And he ate both plates of rice HAHA). Anyway, they pronouce chef salad as CHIEF salad hahahahhaa

So it was only like 10pm plus, we were watching tv and I fell asleep totally. HAHAHA seriously too tired from the life in Singapore!!!

Krabi ♥

2011-12-20T00:32:00.001+08:00

4D3N of relaxing is definitely not enough. Wish I didn't have to come back!

Macau + Zhuhai + Hongkong Day 4 + 5

2011-12-16T00:58:00.000+08:00

Finally, term tests are over. Kinda screwed up today's paper but oh well, IT'S HOLIDAYS NOW! And I'm heading to Krabi later (It's after 12am already). Excitements! Hehehe. So as promised to myself, I gotta get these posts up before I leave!

Day 4: 13/10/11

Pk brought us to eat dimsum in the morning!

Tip: Travel around Macau for free by taking shuttle buses to the various casinos at the ferry terminal. The popular casinos have got their own shuttle bus and you can just take it, alight and go wherever you want!

We decided to visit the Galaxy. It's a new hotel (about 1 to 2 months only)

Only one word to describe it: GRAND

Really wanna stay in this hotel! Heard that there is even a beach area somewhere in the hotel! Can you imagine? Sand in the middle of a hotel. Love this hotel so much <3

Crowded casino. There was dance performance!

Next, we moved on to the Venetian hotel, which used to be the best. Now galaxy took over. Good job Galaxy!

Venetian Hotel reminds me of Genting. Hahaha same concept. And it makes me wanna go Venice before it sinks even more!

Pk's dad met us for lunch and brought us to the famous 猪扒包 place! On the way there:

We walked from the wrong exit and took a really long way there! Hahaha. Was a good walk though. Nice scenery everywhere

Queuing up for our 猪扒包

Very old school cosy feel

The buns were really warm and crispy. 猪扒包 is so yummy!!!

Anyway, they only start selling the 猪扒包 at around 2pm. The queue forms and by about 2.30pm, all the buns will be sold out! Lucky that we were in time to get our share! Hehehe ^^

While walking along the streets, I spotted this shop that is kind of like a rilakkuma theme. There were rila plushies on every seat! How I wish I can go in but they were closed after lunch. Sad :(

Took the shuttle bus back to Senate Square area!

Rushed our way to get our Portuguese eggtarts before the shop closes. Yummy smelling eggtarts, how I miss them! Anyway, it started POURING and we were stuck in the shop. Since we only had one umbrella, Pk went to find some raincoats for us. But by the time she was back, the rain sort of subsided. We still wore it though!

Heh heh. Looking like retards

Snacks!

We were back at the ruins of St Paul again. This time in the day! It didn't seem so creepy like the previous time hahah

QTQT!

We climbed up the stairs! Can't believe the lazy us went up. Jane was like "Since we're here just go up lah!" Yes, that coming from Jane! Hahahah

Selftimer shots! I look so tall (esp beside pk HAHA) because of my platforms!

One last supermarket shopping

The night ended with us sitting together eating unique flavours of cup noodles not found in singapore watching hongkong drama! Nice!! :D

Day 5: 14/10/11

Woke up for breakfast at the hotel (like finally, have been skipping it everyday haha) and we made our way to the airport. It was raining again :(

I hid 豹豹 and didn't check her in but end up the ground staff still offloaded it into the cargo. Idiot!!

Plane was a lil delayed so we took some self-timer shots!

Sam was doing that flight and we all had lunch at Macs together before going home. What a wonderful trip. Girlies are so loveeeeee <3 Hehehhehe

Alright need to continue packing for my trip again. See you in 4D3N time! BYEEE!

Macau + Zhuhai + Hongkong Day 3

2011-12-15T01:10:00.001+08:00

12/10/11

Jane and I decided to skip breakfast since we were going to Hongkong today. We would rather sleep in, then go to Hongkong to get some authentic dimsum!

View from our room :)

At the ferry terminal. We look so toot here!

Free ferry tickets there thanks to Pk's dad again :) The ferry is so cool~ Got steward somemore! And even have wifi ^^

Loving my new bag from Zhuhai

A one hour ride later we reached Hongkong!

Took the MTR to Mongkok. Since we were only there for a day, we only went to one area.

Obvious that we're tourists!

Reached Mongkok! ^^ This is such a typical tourist kind of photo!

It was raining since we reached hongkong till we leave. Hate the rain :( WHY DID IT HAVE TO RAIN!!!!

Pk and I bought the 3G sim card and tada!! Could use internet the whole day. HAPPYYYY!!!!!!! Hungry us searched for a nice dimsum place to eat. BUTTT, it surprisingly isn't really readily available like every 30m you walk. I seriously expected that. I mean ... It's hongkong leh!! Hahaha. Walked quite abit before we settled at this restaurant

These pictures make me hungry!!

I SWEAR THIS IS THE BESTESTESTEST EGGTART IVE EVER EATEN!!! Stuffed 2 into my tummy although I'm freaking full. It's that good!!! (Y) anyway, I LOVE EGGTARTS!!! hehehehe

Shopped at some mall and these are our H&M purchases!!

Didn't get anything for myself though. Bought a top for qf!

This escalator goes SUUUUUUPER highhhh

Up the escalator! See, got so much time to take pictures! Hahaha

Nice decorations :)

In this mall, you'll have to take the escalator all the way up, then walk down every level! It's like walking in circles for 12 levels

1314 was our hotel deposit box password HAHA!

Rainbow stairs!!!

Went out of the shopping mall and saw this interesting long xu tang and gina decided to try it!

Wasn't as nice as expected though~

Curry fish ball!

And so... we moved on to 女人街, which I totally DO NOT recommend. The things they sell are quite repetitive and not interesting at all. Plus, its so expensive!! They don't really let you bargain. Don't use the china bargaining method here. Never works!

It was rainy and cold we needed some warmth!! So here we are at a 茶餐厅

Warm drinks on a cold day = <3

Jane and I shared the noodles which look like maggi mee but it surprisingly taste so good!!!!!

It was at this cafe that we realised we really don't know where to go next!
1) We're not really farmiliar with Hongkong
2) We didn't do ANY research on where to go AT ALL

So I SOS-ed out to Teri! Whatsapped her and she recommended us to go to Argyle Centre to shop. Which was like the best recommendation lah! Most of our buys came from there and they were cheap and nice!!!! Super regret wasting so much time at 女人街

Dinner was at a 茶餐厅 opposite Argyle Centre! This is the kind of 茶餐厅 I've wanted to go! Like always will see it in drama. This guy walks in and then orders a "set A" You know you know!! Hahahah

Not very cheap...

The noodles were yummy. :)

Lastly, we had desserts at this super famous dessert shop! A must visit!

THIS. IS. FREAKING. GOOD. I. SWEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I really don't know how to describe it but it is just so fucking good!

And we went supermarket shopping again! I love buying instant food! Hehehe

满载而归!

Took MTR back to the ferry place and back to Macau.

It's a pity we didn't have a hotel room in Hongkong. But oh well! I'll come back for Hongkong again definitely!!!!

Macau + Zhuhai + Hongkong Day 2

2011-12-11T16:16:00.001+08:00

11/10/11

Early in the morning want to act one emo already! :P

Just one night and the room was so messy!

Buffet breakfast to start our day off. But too tired to take any pictures hahaha

Someone has super shaky hands!

Went back for some last minute shopping. Hehehe and I shall introduce to you my new luggage! Her name is 豹豹! Bought the bigger sized one after ALOT of considerations. Because bigger sized means I'll have to check her into the cargo everytime. But oh well, can put more things into her! :D

SO PRETTY RIGHTTTT!! :>

Polka dots~

Pk also bought a luggage. Jane was in search of her pink luggage. We continue searching while Gina and Pk went back to get our luggages from the hotel.

Gina so happy with her gongcha!

WE LOOK SO SUPER RED HERE IDK WHY HAHAHA

Anyway so many beggars there. So scary. One of them kept chasing Jane and I till Jane had to just give her money. And then the other saw and came towards us also! Gosh!

Passed the immigration and here we are at Macau again! Cabbed to our Hotel. It's called 金龙酒店

Time time the beds weren't that big so we can't squeeze into one room again

It was raining when we reached so we just slacked in the hotel reading magazines and just lying around. At night, we went to walk around. Pk as the tour guide again :D

Since Macau is such a safe place, we decided to take their public transport. You know in some countries you just don't dare to take their buses. Macau is definitely not one of them

This is the Grand Lisboa, the first casino in Macau!

At night when everything is lighted up, SO BEAUTIFUL!!!!

Saw this random building out of no where and Pk told us it was a library! Cool!

Decided to go in and take a look. This is the card they give everyone upon going in. To be returned when you're leaving

Tried to take a self timer pic but it became blur :(

Second attempt the person caught us. See! She's the one at the most right hand side of the pic. Sian!

We were at Senate Square and there is this shop that sells also of Rilakuma stuffs! So happy ^^

Food~

Jane and her new rainbow umbrella aka 七彩玲珑伞

Tiles on the floor are all hand-made! :O

Walked somemore and we saw the ruins of st paul. A must visit when you're at Macau

After this we took bus back to the hotel again. What a tiring day! Our hotel doesn't have wifi at all. That was the saddest day of all. I missed Qf so much I wanna cry! Hahahah no joke.

Next post will be about us going to Hongkong! ^^

Of Christmas lights and yummy ramen!

2011-12-11T15:24:00.000+08:00

Absolutely loving town during Decemeber and loving the super yummy ramen as well! ♥

Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky like shooting stars?

2011-12-11T15:08:00.000+08:00

If yes, this has got to be the BIGGEST shooting star ever! The other day (quite long ago haha), Qf brought me to watch aeroplanes. By that I mean big big big big kind that is literally just above your head! The view was spectacular. Though I work in a plane, it still fascinates me!

♥♥♥♥♥♥

Macau + Zhuhai + Hongkong Day 1

2011-12-07T23:37:00.002+08:00

10/10/11:

Well, I shall say, better late than never!

No doubt one of the most worth it trip ever! Cheap air fares + free hotels + some free meals + some free transport. All thanks to Pk's dad and his 好友满天下! Seriously, his friends are all so nice! Girlies are always pampered :)

Took the earliest flight out departing at 6am. So early = no need sleep already. Qf fetched me to the airport and we had breakfast together <3

Pk, Jane and Gina had the same luggage! I'm the unique one :)

On board the flight:

Jane made us fruit yogurt salad. So sweet :)

Expected myself to sleep during the flight but the four of us ended up squeezing into 3 seats and watch Eat, Pray, Love on Pk's iPad. Boring show!! And after 3+ hours, we say hello to Macau!!!

After clearing immigration and all, Pk's dad arranged for someone to fetch us. To our surprise, we were drove around in a BMW! See, we're pampered right! ^^

We had our own time before meeting up with pk's dad and his friends for lunch. So we decided to just roam around.

At a random park:

Macau is such a nice city. It's small, clean, and safe! Quoted from Pk: "If Singapore is a country, Macau is just a street" Hahahaha. True enough! Nice place to be at totally.

Super huge fountain!

Wynn, the first casino that we went into! First time stepping into a casino, so eggcited!

However in Wynn, we didn't win. :( Lost about 40 HKD. Okay very negligible. hahahaha. That's because we only played those computerised ones which don't require a minimum amount. We're too humji~

In the BMW again ^^

Lunch was at this Portuguese restaurant

Pk's dad really ordered alot of food for us! And food there was great. First time trying Portuguese cuisine!

After lunch we walked around Macau a bit more...

While waiting for Pk and her dad to settle some stuffs at the bank

Off we go to Zhuhai! Zhuhai is similar to Singapore and JB. Just cross the immigrations and we're there!

Checked in to our hotel: Holiday Inn!

We had 2 rooms but squeezed together in a room. Heheheh

Act one artistic!

After resting for a while we started shopping. Everything is dirt cheap. And as usual in China, you have to use the same bargaining tactic in all shops!

For example:

Me: How much is this??
Shopkeeper: 200 Rmb
Me: 50 Rmb?
Shopkeeper: *DRAMATIC FACE* Noooo... I don't earn from that....
*Me puts back and walks away*
Shopkeeper: OKOK... COME BACK.. I SELL YOU...

It really works this way! I learnt this from my granny! For some (0.1%) shops this may not work, all you have to do is find another shop that sells the similar thing.

iPhone casings all at like 5 SGD or less each?

Happy us ^^

Shop like craaaazy!

There were many pretty cardigans because at that time Autumn was approaching. Not much summer clothes suitable for sunny Singapore. But still many pretty and random stuffs to buy!!

Dinner was back at our hotel. Buffet dinner. And..... wait for this..... IT'S FREEEEEEE. HAHAHAH. Ok that sounded damn cheapo. Thanks to Pk's dad once again! :D

Lots of variety to choose from. The only thing I'm unsatisfied about this hotel is that wifi is only available at the lobby. I had to go down after bathing just to talk to Qf for a while! So troublesome. Other than that, everything was fine! Blame myself for being such an internet freak. Hahahaha

So that's end of day one... Stay tune for day 2!!! Goodnights! ^^

Happy is me :)

2011-11-28T03:10:00.001+08:00

MP judging went really smoothly despite feeling nervous and all. Great job girlies! We worked well together :) So happy to have you girls. All the stayovers and last min late nights in school will be missed! <3

So much catching up to do here but life after MP still kinda sucks. 3 assignments due next week! Gosh.... Needs to be productive!

On a happier note, Krabi trip booked!! SO EGGCITED. Happy happy happy ^^ !!!!

Most impt presentation out of these 3 years

2011-11-23T01:26:00.002+08:00

after today 5pm, MP YOU CAN EAT MY SHIT

L♥VE

2011-11-13T23:43:00.001+08:00

How is it possible to love someone so much???

2011 to go place: Sapporo Ramen Miharu

2011-10-27T01:31:00.001+08:00

So long since I posted anything.....recent. Haha! I'm gonna post about what happened today! HAPPY DEEPAVALI! Anyways, it's been quite long, but cut my hair!

From:

To:

Quite short and it keeps qiao-ing here and there! But oh well, hair will grow~ And I totally don't need to tie bun for flights! Just a ponytail :)

Painted my nails! Omgosh, my nails must be feeling happy because it's finally another colour other than red for the past 6 months!

Luvin the floral prints of this dress

Okay, so back to today! Did project for the first half of the day and then out for dinner! Since I've been a good girl I totally deserve some nice yummy ramen!

Have been neglecting my camera for sooooo long. So shall utilise it well today!

With pics of me.... hehehe

Read about Sapporo Ramen Miharu quite some time ago and I bookmarked the page! Finally had the time to dine here. Quite a ulu place to go without a car, I must say. But with google map, we still managed to hunt it down :)

It's located at The Gallery Hotel, 1 Nanson Road.

The shop was really small and had limited seats. And we found out that they're actually closed every Wednesday. Lucky us that it's public holiday today!

While waiting for food

Gyoza, which was mediocre and slightly overpriced. We kinda regretted

My Tokusen Tonshio Ramen

Ermz, I forgot what Qf ordered but it was something garlic-y

I don't understand why the woman served me warm water and Qf cold water. Puzzles me... Is it some tradition in Japan that girls must have warm water and guys cold. Or is she just trying to be sweet, scared that I'll be cold? LOL

Since we were near this bridge (idk what it's called), but always see it on TV, decided to take a walk here!

Took a nice stroll around that area and I conclude it's a really nice place to live. So peaceful and quiet can come down for a stroll with your loved one everyday after dinner. But of course, you've got to be really rich!

Walked to Central where we chilled at Starbucks and Qf did something really stupid and funny and retarded and.. omg HAHA. Shall not baotou him.

That's how we ended our night. Sigh, school at 8am tomorrow and it's already 1.30am. Gonna be a sleepy head in school with the heaviest eyebags =.= Baiiiiiiiii :(

Current biggest enemy: Myself

2011-10-26T00:36:00.001+08:00

It's back to school again after what seems like the longest time. Really feels weird at the start but kinda getting the I'm-a-TP-student feel back slowly. Oh my, last semester! Having the I don't wanna study but don't wanna graduate dilemma all over again just like the period when I graduated from Sec school before O levels.

With MP judging drawing near, it worries me cause our project is really ....... dots..... Not ready. Yet, I currently have some issues with myself. Won't want to elaborate but just wish I can get over it. Haunts me like crazy I hate it

I need to get more productive and less out of sight = out of mind!!!!!

Awesome Genting/KL getaway Part III

2011-10-17T14:17:00.000+08:00

Yes, I know, don't remind me! This took toooo long. It's almost been a month since I'm back from Genting plus, even gone on another trip! But well, I'm gonna get this over and done with, then blog about my Macau/Zhuhai/Hongkong trip! Hehehehe :)

Last day in Genting, we checked out suuuuper early! Like 8.30am, because we wanted to go KL for some shopping before going back to SG!

Were too early for our bus so we decided to take some pictures! Took pics with First World Hotel although it wasn't where we stayed at!

Self timer shots! Look at them, all dressed as if it wasn't cold. I'm the only one who covered all my limbs because I'm really scared of cold!

Hi cherylllll :)

Jump shots!

On my first attempt to do this, I stepped on my toes. Freaking painful!!!

We look like ballerina here!

Bus then changed to LRT, and we're at Times square! Finally some yummier food for lunch! ^^

The shopping at Times Square was great! Some stuffs at can be found in blogshops which are $25 plus are sold at RM25, which is about 10SGD! Worth it right? But the bad thing was there wasn't any lockers available here so we had to carry our heavy stuffs all around the mall, which is so tiring :(

Settled down at the toilet bowl cafe for some snacks and rest before we headed to the airport, and back to Singapore. It was a great getaway, really! :D
