Singapore trip ( part 2 )

DAY 3 - Sentosa Island

I wanted to go to Universal Studio Singapore , but because of money stuff  , everything go out of my plans. His sister suggested us to visit sentosa island where the USS located , there are a lot of other attractions too.

We entered Singapore very late on that day because I had to print the port folio (my assignment during holiday T.T). I have no idea why it's hard to find a printing service in JB? Special thanks to him fetched me early in the morning to find the printing shop. Thank God I found it finally but they open at 11am. So I wait until 11am and the boss told me their PC got some problems and they were calling for repair. Are u kidding me ??  Luckily the nice boss told me the other printing service in JB. However, there was another joke for me. Color printing RM2 per page , B & W 50 cents per page?? !!! 

"wa!!so expensive ar??" 

" ya, we use the digital blablabla priting, the quality is very good!"

" do u have a normal printing? I dont need a too good quality printing!!'

"sorry , no~~"

"ok.fine.thanks."

I went back to the previous shop , the boss said he will repair the computer in the afternoon. So I planned to print it at night.

It's was already 12.30 noon.

We only started our way to customs and  it's always  jam in the customs. ='(

I think we reached Ang Mo Kio at 1.15pm, had a lunch at Toast Box Singapore.

After the lunch, he was leading me the way as usual. But this time he didn't tell me where he want to go.

"I thought we have to find the MRT?"

"No. not now."

heading to our car...

"huh? you wanna drive to sentosa?''

"hmm. may be.."

"you know how to go?"

"no"

"then??"

"get into the car 1st."

started driving ...

"where u want to go jek??"

kept quiet..

5mins later..

"ok! go down" 

he brought me to a clinic.....

I was refusing to go in . I knew he wants me to see doctor because of my long-time-no-healing cracked lips. He highly recommended this clinic because he used to have cracked lips like me and treated by this doctor. But I didn't want to waste the time to see doctor, it was already 2pm and we were not even on the way to sentosa island. In the end, I didn't see the doctor coz the doctor came in late. It's a good excuse to me~ ~

--------the end of the story----------

haha..suddenly throw you all a 旅行之小插曲.

我又搞砸了他给的感动。

好啦，是有感动啦，不过我的玩心更甚。

--------Continue to our DAY 3 story------

We took MRT (purple line) to Harbourfront station , get into VIVO City (shopping mall), you may find the Sentosa Monorail at level 3 which take you to Sentosa Island by the train  or you may choose Boardwalk at level 1 , of course you have to walk. We chose Boardwalk as it's cheaper than taking monorail. Upon reaching , we paid $1 as the entrance fee , if you enter the island by taking monorail , charged $3. We don't have to pay when we come out from the island. So we entered using the Boardwalk and came out by taking Monorail. Haha!!Saved $ 2!!  =.=''

Universal Studio Singapore # 1

Universal Studio Singapore # 2

We went to the casino in Sentosa Island. This was the 1st time I entered the casino after I reached 21 years old. The staff outside the casino scanned our passport and he made me a joke : 你超过21岁了是吗？
"如果你说我还没超过21岁我会很高兴的!"
After we entered the casino, I can feel that  many pairs of eyes were looking at us. May be we look too childish? May be because of my beachwear-like outfit? Really beh tahan for their sight .
We played some games and spent 1 hour in the casino.
After that , we had our dinner in McD. The large coke is super big !! See!!

Then we moved on to Palawan Beach .

welcome!!

say Hi to the beach!!

Palawan beach

the sky getting darker..

We spent half an hour on the beach because the sky was getting darker and darker. Moreover ,I had to rush back to JB to print my port folio which I didn't manage to print in the morning. The boss told me he will repair his computer in the afternoon. OK la, finally I printed it and passed it up before the deadline. haha


Next time we should entered the island earlier so we can spend more time on each attraction (especially for the beach!! haha.I'm a beach-lover.) Actually there are 3 beaches in Sentosa Island . You may plan a 2 days trip on Sentosa Island , 1 day for USS only, 1 day exploring the whole island.

Thanks for reading.

Singapore trip ( part 1 )

Finally finished my professional exam and PASS it!! Yup, it's the end of 3rd year and will start new semester(4th year) in Sep.
After our Dean announced the results, I straight away went to JB and had a trip to Singapore with him.
We have been planning this trip since last year and initially we planned to go in March. For some reasons make the trip delayed until July.

It's the 2nd time I went to Singapore. This time is purposely to get more chops in my passport. lol. Seriously!! I seldom travel overseas, the only chops in my passport is last year I went to Bangkok, Thailand with my lovely coursemates.

We've planned a lots for the trip but everything ends up spontaneously because I want to SAVE MONEY!! We've planned to go Universal Studio Singapore(USS) but eventually we just went  somewhere around USS and took photos. People says you must go to USS if you go to Singapore, but the entrance cost RM170++.
I was like.....ok la, go next time la..
Luckily his house is very closed to the customs, we're staying in JB and went to Singapore everyday. Staying in his house make us saved a lot.


Day 1 - Bugis street
Day 2 - Orchard Road（乌节路）, Chinatown(牛车水），Merlion Park(鱼尾狮公园）
Day 3 - Sentosa Island (where is the USS located)

You will not spend a lots of money if u visit all these places. No entrance fees or ticket is needed. You just have to pay for the foods ,shopping and the transport fees.Of course I did window-shopping. hehe.


DAY 1 - Bugis Street
Girls' heaven . Shopping . Cheapest price .
WHAT??!!
I want to go!! It's my response when I heard these.
Yup, a place for you to shop at the cheapest price. There are selling clothes, shoes, accessories....

they are selling fruits juice.

they mix my favourite with banana.Yucks! Seriously I dun like banana flavor things.

i bought the blueberry.

You can see from the picture, their clothes is around $10-20 SG dollars.

I dont think the blueberry juice is made from blueberries. It's more to coloring drink.

HOW TO GET THERE?
Take the MRT east-west line (green line) to Bugis station.
it's super easy to take MRT in Singapore!!



DAY 2 - Orchard Road --Chinatown -- Merlion park









Orchard road
The 1st time I went to Singapore was in DEC 2009, the month that celebrating Christmas , Orchard road was decorated with many beautiful lighting and christmas decorations on the trees along the road, there were alots of christmas trees too. That's why I wish to visit this place again. Bur now is July, no any decorations along the road. Urrgh..I want to come this place again in Dec.

Some views of Orchard Road.

HOW TO GET TO Orchard Road?

-take MRT north- south line (red line) to orchard station

Merlion Park is a landmark of Singapore, is a major tourist attraction at One Fullerton.
