Singapore Trip- Day 1..

6th March 2009 :

i woke up with an anticipating and excited feelings...
anticipating for the trip to our neighbour country, Singapore...
however, my heart was shattered with a shocking news...
Uncle supposed to fetch Jac to JB but i got a "news" that Uncle can't make it and Jac couldn't get a ticket to JB on time...
at that very moment, i was so burning mad...
spoilt my happy and anticipating day...
suddenly, Uncle called me and asked me to go down from my block to have a look..
then, i was so suprised that he was there but wait...
"WHERE IS JAC???"
nobody was in the car..
after a while, i accidentally spotted Jac, Mei Poh and Huey Chong, hiding at the corner...
then only i realised i was fooled by them...
and the culprit was SIAO TI UNCLE!!!
argh.... anyway, they got their punishment which was waiting for me from getting myself prepared to go...
then, we went for our lunch and City Square...
Jac forgot to bring the gifts..
so we bought something from the Action City..
and of couse, i did buy something for Jeanette...
then off we go to the Malaysia custom...
it was so new and nice, really look like an airport...
the whole journey to Singapore was kind of smooth, no traffic jam, no line-ups...
but jac and i did some silly things when we arrived singapore...
we didn't know that we need to alight at Kranji MRT Station, luckily we asked the bus driver...
then, we took the wrong direction of the train which leaded us to Chinese Garden instead of Clementi...
then, we wanted to take the 96 bus, the bus driver told us that we need to go to the interchange which was only just a few meters away...
then we were like " erm.. then how?"
so, the kind-hearted bus driver brought us there without charging us any cents...
however, CW was as blur as ever... she took the wrong bus too...
but we still got to meet her in NUS...
once i got into her room, i really like it..
although it is small, it is fully furnished with good quality furniture..
and their toilet is clean and fully equiped with heaters...
so fortunate...
then, we began our FOOD HUNT!!!
we met Chew at Clementi MRT Station and we went to Bugis...
teng teng teng....
the first stop => MOS BURGER( 6pm )

One of my favourite.. Chicken Terriyaki Burger..
the roasted chicken was so juicy and aromatic..
the whole piece of chicken is full of the wonderful taste...

i don't really know what it called...

Mos burger (Beef).. nice....

after this, we went to buy.....

Ice-cream Mua Chi...
a must-try..the skin of the mua chi is smooth and soft, the ice-cream mixed well with the mua chi...
Cream puffs...
cold and sweet inside, hot and crispy outside...

we were full after eating so much, so we went to Bugis Village to shop for cheap goods...
BV is full with cheap but yet, nice clothings...
all of us bought something from there...
CW bought her dream dress which is really nice on her...
luckily, Jac encouraged her to give a try on it..
then, i bought a short pants which only costed me $10...
Chew bought a some-sort-of-vest-looking jacket( really have no idea what does it call )...
but Jac bought the most things...
and yeah, i was "forced" to wear something girlish...
it didn't look good on me, though..
so.....

Next stop : The Soup Spoon...(9.30pm)

Mushroom soup with so many types of mushrooms...

Clam Chowder Soup with big clams and big scallops...

Breaded Buttons...
super juicy button mushrooms... wear a napkin before u bite it..

Me. Chew. CW.

Jac. Me.

Jac. Me. Chew.

the first few mouth of the soups were really nice...
the wild mushrooms fragrance just dispersed in our mouth...
the clam chowder doesn't taste like clam soup at all...
kind of disappointed with it but still acceptable...
and that breaded buttons were super juicy...
i remembered that when Jac took her first bite, the juicy "sprayed" out on her hands...
after a while, we were super full and we were "sicked" of the creamy soups...
BUT STILL, WE WENT TO.....

Next stop : Geylang at 11pm...
yeah.. we went to Geylang at 11pm...
when we first alighted at Aljuneid MRT, we were shocked to see so many foreigners, selling illegal ciggerates along the pathway...
and some were sitting at the open space, gambling..
there were so many ah peks and of cause, prostitutes...
anyway, we went to have...

Dou Jiang You Tiao...
the dou hua really smooth... a must-try too...

My favourite of all... Beef Char Kuey Tiao...
the beef was juicy and tender... it melts in your mouth...
and the gravy was superb... really MUST TRY!!!

Claypot Frog.... which costs $8 per frog... faint...

ok... after eating so much, we were truly full...
at first, we planned to go Clarke Quay but it was kind of late (12pm )...
so, we went back to NUS...
for your information, Chew and CW didn't stay around the same area...
so, we decided to accompany Chew back to her hall since it was already so late and we were still so full...
along the way....

The road that should be taken by me to my fac...

Jeanette's Fac..
The Arts and Social Science...

CW.Me.Jac.
At Alumni House...

Chew.CW.Me.
nice right???

I love this picture... so artistic..
nicely taken by Chew...

Chew.CW.Me.

Me.Jac.

i also love this picture...
got the feel like what Chew said..
thanks, Chew..

we went for a NUS campus tour at wee hour...
and the whole journey took us 1 hour plus even we didn't managed to walk the whole campus..
we(Jac.CW & Me) took taxi after sending Chew off because we were simply too tired and we need to walk for another 45 minutes to reach CW's residence...
the taxi driver was really kind too because he wanted to give a discount but we still gave him the full amount, though...
oh ya.. did i mention that CW thought that my smile looked like her idol, the korean guy from SS501??
yeah... she kept on peeping at me... hahahahaha...
then when we reached her room, i asked her to show me her idol...
and she shown me so many of his videos...
and the way she looked at him was so self-indulging, seems like she was the main actress in the drama, smiling away with his appearance...
after that, we took our bath and went into the dreamland at last...

so, this is the Day 1 of the trip...
it was a fun and "super full" trip...
we really had a great time there...
shopping and eating like hungry ghosts together...
simply interesting and exciting trip...
i would like to thank CW and Chew for being such a great hosts...
taking us around to look for nice and wonderful foods...
and special thank to CW for illegally keeping us...
we really had a great time in Singapore...
THANK YOU, GALS!!!
love u guys so much....

PS : i just hope that we will have more chance to go for FOOD HUNT and HOLIDAY together in future... but just that, i hope we won't grow fat after that... haha....
