31/12/10

I'm gonna divide my experience for the previous few days into 3 posts to correspond with the dates so as to not agonize my readers too much by my long winded depiction for the on and offs I had.

For the 1st day, which is 31/12/10.
We headed to my mom's friend's house located in Nilai, because we are going to be transported to S'pore via car. 5 of us, Aunty M, Uncle AS, mom, me and bro.
Had some normal breakfast at Nilai before heading off to Johor.

Reached Johor at about 1pm, went to a famous Bak kut teh shop.
They used charcoal to cook! fuhh~ And what amazed me was actually their service.
People were queuing up outside the shop, and the shop owner[as well as the main chef] keep entertaining them by talking and keep giving them smile despite the fact that he's cooking a few pots of bak kut teh simultaneously under the intense searing heat given out by the stove.

Its seriously hot just to stand near it.

The dishes arrived in less than 20 minutes. And I must say, its quite.. err.. special? The taste of the bak kut teh differs greatly with the normal BKT we get in kl or anywhere else, the soup here is quite clear and taste like.. herbs lacking the dong guai smell..

2 pots of BKT and a pot of yellow wine chicken, WHICH, has no taste of chicken at all, it tasted like ginger soy sauce chicken to me more lol. But its worth a try anyway~

Then we went to our hotel to check in before heading to S'pore.
The plan of the day was to countdown for the night, which I think its a great choice to make because the fireworks view displayed when the clock struck 12 in the midnight was just spectacular! I will leave that later on anyway =)

I'm just a bit too lazy to upload my pics up here in blogger [Sorry sam!! =p], so I shall just
describe what I think about the 1st day.

• I see that a lot of singaporeans tend to walk a lot faster than us, even their escalators are faster! damn!
• I can say that 90% of the girl I met there had make up.[Well maybe they are foreigners from Thailand or Indonesia?] But they look breath taking nevertheless! xD
• Girls tend to overdress[they dress like its their prom night even if its a shopping complex! Ok la, dat shopping complex a big high class punya la, sumthing like pavillion.], while guys just dress dengan sangat fili feleh. lol
• SHIT!! I SEE A LOT OF GIRLS SMOKING!! Saham jatuh menjunam mendadak dengan max gila!
• The night view in S'pore in quite nice, their lighting is not bad.

Once more I MUST emphasize!! The girls there are pretty!! But I think most of them are from Thailand though.. cuz its like :
me: *whoah! leng lui!!* *smile at the coming girl thats gonna pass by me*
random gal : *smiles* *after passing by* *chatter wildly in some alien language with her friend.*
lol, and they SERIOUSLY look like chinese!

Oh yea there's one more, I wanna have a group pic that includes everyone of us, so I wanna have other ppl to hold the camera.
I spotted 2 security women standing there chatting, so I just braced myself to ask them a favor.
Is it true that policeman cant help others to take photo? Cuz i saw there's an arm at her waist.
So, I asked for their help, and one of them was eating and said 'I'm eating lah.'
Wow.. that really shocked me = = Was stunned for 1.23 seconds before asking the other policewoman to take. she just shook her head and waved me off.
WAT. THE. FANTASTIC???
damn, that was rather astonishing = =''

Oh there's this particular building which I love a lot! Because it is quite rare in sight, I mean in the sense of architectural view. Its like a plane without wing crashed into 3 buildings while joining them?? [lol?]

Quite nice huh?

And oh! The building that we went to wait for countdown, its a rather high class place, forgot what's its name, but its situated in the Marina Bay. All the shops and outlets there employs promoter which wears coat and they do have those professional looks lol.
There is a casino situated in the building, the funny thing is, Singaporeans have to pay 100SD to enter while foreigners can omit that levy fee. SHIT! Keep sucking our money!!
Talk about sucking.
There's this uncle keep saying its some feng shui pattern or some force field for the casino, thats why they build this water vortex. Literally in chinese it means that they are sucking our water [money] down! lol damn!!
The mentioned water vortex.

For the countdown event, I didn't record it down because I wasn't in a nice angle for recording and my camera is quite sucky. lol, if you are interested to have a look, go here!
