Holiday Splendor

2 weeks into the holidays and the real fun actually begun. This getaway was already talked about since the exam period. Mei Ping was kind to welcome us (Sue Ling and Margaret as well) to her home in Johor Bahru. Singapore was a side plan since Sue and I didnt have our passports. Then on Wed (a week before the trip) I went to make passport! Just the perfect time..since everyone in my family already renewed their's except me. It was a 5 hour long process though. -.- On Monday(14th), mum and I went to bus bus tickets for the Wednesday. Sue spent Tuesday over at my place. 

Thursday- Margaret came in the morning around 8. Off to bus station and they we were, leaving Shah Alam behind at 10.30am. In the bus: Ate gummy bears and slept the most during the 5 hour journey. Mei Ping and her dad picked us up from Larkin bus station and our first visit was to KSC City, the new mall in Johor Bahru. That night we just at home with uncle and aunty. So much happened in the room before dinner. I had pillow fights, wrestling, basically being crazy all over again. Thats just so me. Had an early night as the next day we're going to Singapore!



Friday- Reached Singapore at 12.30pm and 6 other guys joined us girls. Straight away went to eat lunch at some food court which was fully jammed packed -.- This is what we did for the whole day. Bugis Street ~Vivo City (by MRT) ~ Sentosa (around Universal Studios and the beach) ~ Dinner(which was really hard since everywhere was full) ~ Orchard Road. That was it for the whole day full of walking, train transiting and photo snapping. Reached home at 1am! Shower..Sleep =D



Saturday- Woke up very late. 1pm? Around 3 only we went out to a shopping mall. Dinner was Japanese food. Delicious indeed and we ordered a bottle of sakae ;) Everyone had just 2 shots and we all were laughing like mad. Omg..lol. Then I said I still feel normal..Mei Ping and Sue Ling started laughing again. When we were finished, we bought more drinks from the shop downstairs to drink in the room =D Too bad the effect wasn't like what we expected. The drink didnt give any of us any 'kick'. Haha! 




Sunday- Home sweet home! I actually am happy to be back home, sharing stories with mum and being a mini Santa to my family. Reached home only at 9pm when the bus left Larkin at 4pm. Hmm you must have thought that I was darn tired from the journey and all but still I didn't call it an early night. Slept at 5am XD First time for that and I dont think I can ever do that again.


P/S- I took such a long time to publish this as I was very lazy. It was saved in the draft for about 4 days. lol.

Happy 91st Birthday Granny!

Exam ended on Friday and the 1st celebration for it was Grandma's birthday dinner in Klang. We booked a room with 3 tables. Used to be only 2 though. Expanded so much ay. Totally a family reunion also but only 1 cousin was missing in action. This was our dinner (the picture below). All 5 to 6 dishes in a big marble bowl heated with the fire (plenty of abalone in there!). Every table couldn't finish it and had to pack.



Usually on Grandma's birthdays she'll distribute red packets to everyone. Without fail every year okay. And there's RM50 in it and multiply that with around 30 people. Lol. So in a year I'd receive 3 red packets from granny. Chinese New Year, my birthday and her birthday. No I do not call her granny in person. XD The 3 babies below are her great grandchildren <3



Was thinking of applying for a job. But then again I'd want to wait till next year to actually start. This whole month it's about going around Malaysia and relaxing, hanging out with friends. I'll just execute the idea for the time being. More updates soon. This week's activities seems full and I love that! =D It should apply to every week though.
