Road trip #4 (Johor/Singapore; 20/02/10)

I woke up sleepily *yawn* Was in the bathroom for a long time and so the mirror was all fogged up. And I drew my name on top. Like this! :)

Ate buffet breakfast in the hotel's Palm Garden.

Roti canai was so terrible. I bet it's frozen food. Kuey Teow was okay, not so nice as hawker's stall's. French toast a bit soft eww. Sausages and scrambled eggs was great :) Later had a bowl of koko crunch and a glass of orange. Bloated :P

Off to Singapore! At the MRT station ;)

Underground MRT. Full of people @@ My dad was actually left outside because the doors closed so fast.

VIVO CITY!!!

Inside VC.

Had lunch at the food court.

Cute signboard :P I ate ham and cheese sandwich. Omg it was totally tasty!!! I had a second plate :P And the nasi lemak is sooo delicious!

The view from the MRT heading into Sentosa.

The tram that takes you around the island. We didn't take that =/

Didn't see this D: As it was only on at night. Hope to catch this someday though.

Luge!!!! I went on once before so not really that fun and exciting as the first time ;x

The skyride. I remembered I was so scared the first time what with being so high up, higher than the trees, even. Then the whole machinery thing stuck!!! Lol!

Lol. Nothing to do mar. All the trees among us.

Wooooo so windy~~~~~~

Aiya. Senget jor == Like the ships are all falling to the right hahah.

After we got off. Nice scenery.

Ooo so precarious... But cute!

UNIVERSAL STUDIOS!!!!!! Haha. Sadly, it was not fully open yet D:

A star during the day??! LOL. Guess what it's made up of? It came from...

This! A piece of cardboard with shapes cut out placed over a tub of foam bubbles.

This globe made me feel like I was in HOLLYWOOD! Hahah. Couldn't catch all the words though. U-N-I-V-E-R-S. Yes, universe! :P

Nice one. But the tree branch... haiz.

Hershey's chocolates!! *licks lips*

The casino. But I couldn't go in because I am underaged :( Above 21 only can, haizz. Never mind, 4 years to go.

They were interviewing someone. Cool. Let's go behind and we're on TV! :P

Eee what monster is this ;x Elephant with long, bony legs :S

In Festive Hotel, where we were waiting for the people who went in to the casino ._.

Colourful lights. I like this :)

The bar...

...where we ordered an orange drink.

Lights again! So prettyyyy! The FIESTA! :P

My, what a pretty green colour. Mesmerized~

Feeling like I'm in the water :P

Amazing architecture XD

Ooo the Language of Love. So romantic :D

This is the... umm, wish tree or something that I often see on TV. Cool! But... S$2 for a wish card is too expensive lah.

Rings of Enchantment.

Bells of Prosperity.

I wanted to watch the 4D Magix and Cineblast... but it was in the evening already and still there were so many people queueing up D: Hope to watch it someday.

The Tiger Sky Tower. Been on it once :)

Tiger.... my sister *roar* She's as fierce as a tiger too ._.

Cool, they have japanese words too.

We ate dinner at the same food court again. But different food lah, duh. I was quite disappointed because the fried prawn mee that I had wasn't so delicious as last time =/

We had tutu kueh for dessert. Funny name X) But quite nice, it has coconut strips+gula melaka... I think. Tina was smelling the pandan leaf haha.

My first story :D

An original story entirely composed by the blogger. Copyrights reserved. This piece of story is solely for your entertainment.

I was 17. I was 17 when I left this world.

It all happened when I got caught by some outside forces that failed under my control. Me and other people who happened to be so lucky were lying on a piece of metal board, rolling and rolling. When we reached the edge, our memories of being caught were entirely wiped out from our mind. We couldn't remember anything, except falling and falling into the deep, yawning abyss below. Oddly, the abyss was startlingly white and not dark, like how every other abyss were.

Eight years later.

I came back into my world by some miracle, the world where I belong. But strangely, being in this world for 17 years and returning after 8 years, this world doesn't seem familiar to me anymore. It was all so creepy. I realized that I don't belong in this world anymore. The world doesn't welcome traitors.

But I am not a traitor! The whole thing was all out of my control; I couldn't stop it. I wander around aimlessly. No, my mind is wandering, but my body is all slouched up against a wall. I am in a dark, narrow corridor, with a door at the end. Ivan. Is that him? Yes, it's him! Ivan! And... and another guy. He's... he seems to be Ivan's good friend. They turned around and saw me. They stretched out their hands to help me up.

I disappear.

I saw familiar faces again. Trinity. Eugene. Bryan. Wow. All grown up. They're teenagers. So pretty; so handsome. They were all having fun. I walked towards them, and they noticed me. They said hi; smiled at me. I smiled back. I tried to include myself in their little activity. But... but who are they? I haven't been around for 8 years, and I haven't a single clue about what they have been doing all this time, what were they up to recently. 8 years... it's like infinity. They're strangers to me.

I realized that... I came to not know them. It's a nightmare. A horrible nightmare. Someone, please tell me that it's just a nightmare and I would wake up any moment and everything would disappear. I wait. And wait, and wait. But nothing happens.

I suddenly remember my lover. The lover I had when I was 17. Where is he? I began searching around frantically for him. Please, don't let him be gone. I miss him. Where is he? He's not married already, is he? Ohhh, I'm getting more and more terrified! If I can't find him, what would happen to me? At 25, with no boyfriend whatsoever, and no male acquaintances that I would maybe have a chance with, what would happen to me?

It would take a long time before I get to know all these people here on earth again. My hope of getting hitched before or at 25 were evaporating. With my lover gone, there's absolutely no hope. I'm all alone in this world. People who were once my close friends were nowhere to be found. They're gone; everybody's gone. My heart is beating wildly in my chest. Noooooooooo~!

I wake up. I keep my eyes closed. I don't want to face this terrible world. I'm trying so hard to push this reality away, but it kept forcing its way through. I'm 25. Twenty-five. So what happnes now? I wish I could just sleep forever and ever and not face the harsh reality.

I woke up. What? It was only a dream!? Oh. My. God. Relief floods through me like tsunami and all of a sudden I was crying. I kept thanking God. Thanking God that everything wasn't real; it was all just a scary nightmare. I clutched the end of the blankets and doze off to sleep, while the tears dried on my cheeks and around my eyes.

Helping the unfortunate :)

Went to Rumah Amal Limpahan Kasih in I'm-not-sure-where. It's an orphanage or something like that... I was quite bored most of the time I was there. Plus after working at the nursery, my whole body was sweating profusely and I got very uncomfortable the whole day there.
