Finally settled down and back again

Ok.. Now back in Kuching, and finally settled down a bit.. Been ages since I last blog.. BUt all is good.. A brief summary on what happened for the past few weeks... OK.. Had a family dinner at Slippery Senorita during the 5th day of Chinese New Year.. Not too bad the place, but it still has a lot of room of improvement in terms of service.. Half the time was guessing what the waiter was trying to say, and always brought the wrong thing to the table.. -_-" Anyway.. After that, was try to finish up loose ends before heading to Singapore to meet up with Deluxe to attend a friend's wedding.. :)

Singapore was good as usual.. BUt I think I stayed there way too long.. I took Airasia for the first time, and had a very bad flight going to Johor depart from Miri.. I took the 4pm flight, and as we departed Miri, 20 mins after the flight had taken off.. The baby that was behind me started crying and screaming.. I believed that other passenger were disturbed because of the high pitch tone produced by the baby.. And the whole thing lasted for 1 hour, and as I had difficulty trying to sleep.. After 1 hour of screaming the parents went and finally hush the little one by feeding the baby.. Thinking that I would be able to finally get a short 30 mins nap before arriving, suddenly I heard Mariah Carey stared to sing... It was a guy who sat next to me was listening to his ipod and began to sing... Then finally gave up headed for the washroom to freshen up a little before we land.. ANyway, once landed head for the bus stop to reach the bus station to meet up with Deluxe and from there meet up with the rest of her Gang. Once we've all managed to go round the mall in Johor, we had dinner then headed to Singapore... And by the time we reached the apartment that was rented for all of us, it was bout close to 12am, and I quickly showered and slept.. End of Day 1..
Day 2 give my brother a call to catch up with them.. So Deluxe & with Fenny go their ways, I've followed my brother, cousin and Ah Huat to go jalan2.. We've walk to Orchard and finally ended up in Borders.. It was a huge bookstore, and I was pretty amazed with all the books they have. Heck, if I could have gotten my textbook from here rather to wait 3 weeks of shipping from Australia.. -_-" But anyway, wanted to take a picture but wasn't allowed to do so.. After that, went back for dinner and planned to go sentosa the next day with them again.. As night came, met up with Deluxe's friend and we go to Esplanade and took a few pictures there.. Unfortunately didn't bring my tripod, lots of nice scenary to take.. Oh well. Maybe next time.. After that we went back, and thus end of Day 2.
Day 3, Deluxe and myself went to meet up with Ah Huat and my cousin to go to Sentosa.. My brother did not make it because he wasn't feeling too well.. We took the cable car, and then started our adventure.. It was extremely tiring, and some more it rained halfway, so we had to make a few detour.. By the time we got back home it was like 6pm, and rested for like less than an hour then had to go out for dinner to meet up once again with the same group.. But this time, meeting up with my brother and my best bud Bong who has been working there for dinner.. After dinner we walk around before heading back to call it a day..
Day 4 in Singapore, was the big day for Lenny and Darius as we witness the holy matrimony of both of them at the church.. But before heading to the church, their car came to the rented apartment for a few of us to decorate them... Later we went to the bride's place to make up the rest of them who needed to be make up while I was going around taking pictures as well as video.. Then Kiti and I went to the church first.. Since no one was around, I took the chance of taking pictures around, and as for Kiti. He was busy taking pictures at the back while I ventured to the front and took a few close up pictures :P Then the ceremony began, and it was indeed a wonderful experience and the deco was nice.. ^_^ After that we had a short refreshment and followed them to witness their registration as well.. Once everything was over, Deluxe and I went to Bugis again to get Apple Strudle for my sister.. Then rushed back to Orchard for the dinner.. Once the dinner was over, time to head back and call it a day...
Day 5, we managed to met up with Lany.. And this time thinking of going a lot of places but ended up in Tiong Bahru where I finally able to complete my main mission... I went to Burger King and had my whooper.. :D Woo hoo I was happy. Hehehe... Then after resting and all that, we went to go round the mall just to have a look see before heading to church.. Today message was "How to be a wise person".. The sermon indeed was talking about the characteristic of being a wise person. Guess, as we live our lives here on earth, there are a lot things that we need to improve.. And the Ps was stressing that we should live our life accordingly and rather being fire starter.. We should be peacemakers.. After that we went for dinner with the others.. After dinner, Deluxe have a get together with her other friends, so I was kicked out of the group and head back to the apartment... Rested for 2 hours then went back to see if they're done already.. So by the time I caught up with them, they were about to leave.. So we headed back and say our goodbye to everyone there, thus ended day 5 of the singapore trip...
Day 6, got up about 5.30 and get ready to leave singapore.. We tried to flag down a cab at the main street was difficult so ended up went to Orchard side to get a cab.. We got on the bus and headed back to Senai Airport, Johor. Once there, we waited another 45 mins, and hop onto the plane back to Kuching.. And for the past few days been settling down, and finally able to come back here to blog.. COuld have blogged earlier, but wanted to give the CG a surprise when I showed up last nite. Hehehe.. Anyway.. All is well.. The link below is the pictures that was taken during the trip in Singapore.. Signing out now, cuz need to send my uncle to the airport... Until then, have a nice day...
