Singapore trip

I went to Singapore with Lee San two weeks after finals. Man, I love Singapore!! but.. i won't stay there, heh... i think cuz it is too small of a country and everyone is always rushing to somewhere. I love the MRT and bus system, so efficient. I bought myself an EZLink card, juz touch and go, anywhere, everywhere. A car is not a necessity in Singapore. There are no LALAs in Singapore. Singaporeans fashion sense is so much better than ahem... and and the escalators are so much faster because people there are all rushing all the time and because the country is small, there are many people in every places, so yea...


I stayed at Lee San's uncle's place. They stay at a more well to do place which is @ Ang Mo Kio, Serangoon Ave 2. So, when we first arrived and waited quite some time for a taxi. Even the taxi's are different than Malaysia's taxis. Inside the cab, they have this small monitor which Malaysia's cabs don't have it at all. So much difference for a NEIGBOURING country, huh?? The taxi driver sped like hell as if he is rushing to err.. forget it. So, they even have magazines at the backseat for tourist notifying them on the happening places in Singapore. Yea, Backseat Passengers...YOU MUST FASTEN YOUR SEATBELTS even in cabs and buses.


When we have reached the condo, we entered into the elevator. YES, Singapore's elevator is so much smaller. An interesting thing is that the elevator only stops at alternate floors. So if you are staying on the 19th floor, you either stop on the 18th or 20th floor and use the staircase to get to the 19th floor.


There is a very very cute dog and her name is SASA. She accompanied me every morning and night when Lee San's not around.



SASA, the cute dog.


sidenote: Lee San has a whole long facial routine every night before she sleeps. "Siu Lai Lai"


So my first day there, we went to Chinatown.

Then, we meet up with Shi Han (used to be coursemate) at Dholby Ghaut.

She brought us walk the whole Singapore unintentionally. Yes. Unintentionally. All the way back to Woodlands near Custom which is near JB soon. Why?? To buy ingredients to make Cha Soba for dinner. So darn tired, okay!!


So, our dinner...


Cha Soba @ Shi Han's place


All mine!!!!




After that, we've got a slight diarrhoea because of the raw egg.


I CAN'T COOK.

The 2nd day, we went to Takashimaya.

Read the signboard which says "Man, this is your space." Hilarious.


This picture (above) is actually taken by a Singaporean who doesn't know the existence of a digital camera.


oh yea, Lee San's granny tagged along.


After that, we went to my all time favourite in Spore.


SUNTEC CITY


owhhh, is so much better than One Utama, okayyyy....


I was just so busy shopping so didnt take any pics of us shopping.


hERE are some random pics we took in Suntec City.


Kimmy : Look at the fish
Lee San: It is fat!!


Shi Han, Lee San and Kimmy






There is this water fountain which i grew fond of it. There is this ochestra music being played and the water just comes down with style.... YEP!!


No water. No music yet.


Now, with music and water..
Shi Han and i, enjoyed it....




I enjoyed too much tho...



Free!!






Look!! Dory from Finding Nemo!!




Some pictures of food found in Singapore's Food Court



My all time favourite fried carrot cake. I LOVE IT, MOM!!

Supposed to be duck rice but turns out to taste like Bak Kut Teh





Let THE FEAST BEGIN!!!

At the Fountain of Wealth



The fountain is on your right. You have to walk around it three times while making a wish. Your right hand have to touch the water all the time.

For the fun of it, i went to accompany granny.



Some pictures of me with Singapore's staircases




My favourite staircase picture is this
The blue bag actually says "ADD ME IN YOUR FRIEND LIST"
