It is just the both of us.

I know that I have not been blogging for some time and I feel terribly sorry for that. I was not in the mood of writing so much and till now I’m still not any better. But since I have a little time on hand and since this is the only day I don’t kick my sorry ass in the gym, I decided to spill a little of honey in my page. Smile Be prepared to be jealous, envy and to feel at your very bottom of your low down. Just kidding la.

 

Some months back, I went for a short trip with Mr. G because I was flying from Taiwan to South Africa and we didn’t really spent that much time together and I booked really cheap flights to Singapore. Yes, we went to Singapore. How “romantic” eh? We stayed at the “fancy-est” hotel which is located at Geylang. Those that are regular SG travellers, you are very aware where Geylang is. I kept bugging him that I want to go Universal Studios and basically spent most of the lump sum in the tickets. It is so not worth for us to be earning RM and spending SGD. It is absolutely ridiculous!

However, I did managed to score some really cheap air ticket (one way though). It was only RM100 for the both of us. It is even cheaper than taking a bus alright? As usual, everyone can fly eh? Even though we did have some tiny arguments, I must be honest to myself that I had a blast with him. Please la.. it is my first trip with him kay? So have some mercy on us kay?!

As usual, I will never let go of a chance to have my dose of caffeine. (yes, I’m addicted)DSC02475

A very rare occasion where he is actually creative in his photo taking skills. DSC02478

Okay, where is our plane? Is that airbus A380? Oh please, in your dreams!DSC02493

And the funny thing is, we didn’t actually sit together during the flight, we were at different seats as I checked in last minute so the whole time we were apart. Ok la, it was only a 40min flight and according to him, he was asleep most of the time, better not let me know that he exchanged number with the girl next to him. (actually I was the one that one talking to random strangers XD)

This smart fellow forgot to bring his MRT card so he had to buy another one. DSC02495

ok, the map looks simple enough, but will we be able to locate our hotel? DSC02496

Sure enough, we got lost for about 10 mins, that is not too bad lahhhhhhhhDSC02497

Finally checked in. The hotel was…… quite horrifying. Very “Geylang” style. DSC02498

I am going to cramp everything in just one post so be prepared for a very long and annoying post. If you don’t feel like reading then you can just leave though. But if you think I’m pretty and want to continue seeing my face, stay tuned.

My skin was absolutely horrifying after coming back from Africa, therefore it explains all the pimple scars.

Marina Bay Sands. Sigh.. the last time when I was in SG I actually stayed there. Don’t ring a bell, read this. DSC02522

My Mr. G. ( I will explain to you readers later on why I call him Mr. G since there is no G initial in his name)DSC02527

I wanted to go to Harry Potter exhibition since this is a seasonal thing and not all the countries have it. Being a Harry Potter fan (I read all the books), of course I tried not to miss me. However, trust me when I say this, IT IS A WASTE OF MONEY! I didn’t find it worth my money.

Okay, at least I wrote a B’day wish to the little fry. I can’t even spot my card though. DSC02534

DSC02536

It was SGD 24 per person Okay??!! Guess what, I wasn’t even allowed to take pictures inside. And oh oh! guess what is inside the exhibition? Clothes that they wore during the set. We can’t touch any of it, cant take any pictures of it and so forth. And seriously, I highly doubt that those costumes are really wore during the set. They could just duplicate another set and just display there. Show me the DNA samples!!!!!

This was the only point that we are allowed to take pictures. Right after that, no pictures were allowed. Bummer..!

This was the only thing that we bought from the exhibition. If you look closely, it was jelly beans with ear wax flavor, sausage, vomit etc. Trust me, I still have this and it is not even half yet. It cost 6SGD. Damnyou RM, why you so no value? DSC02558

DSC02559

Yes, he looks more muscular in this picture and No, he is not checking e-mails, he was actually playing his games. (forever)DSC02563

Went to Bugis after that to meet up with his brother and that basically wraps up our first day. Slept early because both of us were dead tired with all the walking and basically the TV is broken in the room (such a wonderful room).

~*~~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Woke up earlier to head to USS because we wanted to avoid the crowd. Basically both of us were actually clueless how to head over there but we just went with what we felt right.

Like finally we’ve reached! I really feel like doing something to my teeth. It is terrible. DSC02614

I thought that we were early but I was wrong. I was so excited taking pictures with Woody that I didn’t see Elmo~!!!!! I didn’t managed to take picture with my fav Sesame Street character. ) : I am depressed ok?

Please spot Elmo! DSC02633

One of the must go in USS is actually the Transformers ride. Everyone was giving superly good review on it and so. We blindly waited for the ride. We waited for 1 1/2 hours for the ride and guess what, the ride lasted less than 5 minutes. Wow, Fantastic Baby. But yea, it was really good. Worth waiting for 1 1/2 hours? No.

See the queue? This is actually just a quarter of the waiting people. There are more inside. I almost got fedup with it and wanted to walk out. But thanks to his very mellow temper. He told me to stayed on. DSC02651

Oh, Hi optimus prime. I waited for your 90 minutes alright?! DSC02653

I’m just gonna compile some of the silly photos that we took with all the mascot but if you want the full album you can just go to my facebook to view them. But of course they are not open to the public. Just send me a request in fb if you want to know me. Smile

This wraps up my short trip with  Mr. G in Singapore. Indeed it was a very short and memorable trip for me. Did not managed to spend a lot of money because both of us were on a very tight budget. But we managed to make the best out of it. Did I buy anything from USS? nothing much, just something silly:

A silly water bottle. DSC02708

What was the best thing from this trip? This below:

City of Taipei

Hi everyone!

I’m back from all my business trips and what ever thing that has been going on these 2 months. After the last post, I was preparing myself to Taiwan for another exhibition. My first ever exhibition was on Marine industry (just click on it if you forgot) and so this is the 2nd official exhibition that I am handling which is on food industry, Food Taipei 2012. I have a total of 8 companies with me and I was terribly anxious as it is more than my first exhibition.

Before I start telling you my stories, let me kick off with some photos.

A good breakfast to kick start the day. DSC01358

All my necessities when I go overseas. DSC01361

I had too much things to carry so there wasn’t much pictures taken after that. When I arrived, I rushed to the bus station and took a direct bus to the exhibition hall so that I could have a glimpse on whether the things are all fully equipped before m clients arrive on the 2nd day (I wouldn’t want to be complained).

After making sure everything was in order, I went to the city to meet up with one of the Malaysian government director as there are some stuffs that needed to be sorted. Right after that, we headed to ShiLin night market with me all sweaty/smelly/disgusting/2 bags. Trust me, it was not fun.

See how sweaty I am? DSC01380

“I’m a little teapot short and sprout.”DSC01384

Taiwan ahmoi yang cantik sekali.DSC01391

Look at the size of that sausage. *phew*DSC01392

After a night of exciting and tiring experience, I head back to the hotel to take a rest before the storm on the 2nd day.

The route that I take to MRT station every single day. 10 mins of solid walk daily. DSC01393

The early morning crowd. Some how it is not that bad because their system is quite punctual and efficient. DSC01396

Here’s a story for you guys. After settling my stuff in the early morning, I had some time on hand and thought if visiting Taipei 101 since it is one of the must do things in Taiwan. After checking the map in my hotel, I realised it is actually not that far from the hotel. According to the map it was only 5km away. So I thought to myself, why don’t I walk there..?? And guess what? I did! It took me about an hour to reach Taipei 101. Weather was awfully hot but it was worth it as it is a new place and a whole new experience for me.

Up up and away! DSC01414

All sweaty but happy that I’ve reached DSC01417

DSC01422

Tickets, CHECKED!DSC01424

I know they are very nice cause they give buy 1 free 1. But did they actually thought of people like me that goes alone? made me even more depress kay??!! #foreveraloneDSC01426

View of Taipei from the top! DSC01431

No people take picture for me so I take myself la!SONY DSC

ooooo How dramatic! DSC01445

I’m am 388m higher than you! Actually it’s not that high only la. DSC01451

This is my first official alone meal in Taiwan. It was raining so heavily all of a sudden that I had to pack and go back to the hotel to finish it before heading to the exhibition hall again. DSC01484

Btw, this is my dinner alone. ) : DSC01500

Woohoo!! big group photo! Malaysia boleh!!DSC01677

After a day of hard work, of course it is time to chill a bit. Me and some of my clients went to night market to just chillax a little.

DSC01695

Hmm… funny name.DSC01700

Found the legendary stall in Taiwan. DSC01702

By the way! I tried the smelly toufu and it was HORRIBLE!!! and I got tricked into eating it.. ): Client bully me…!!!!

And this is the person that tricked me into eating it!!! Memang like boss la he! DSC01708

That basically is the ending of my Taiwan trip. Most of the days was just spent drinking at night and going back to hotel to rest as most of us are dead tired by the end of the day.

As you can see, there isn’t many photos from Taiwan as I was too busy working and basically didn’t go many places for sight seeing but I met a great group of people in Taiwan and I am grateful enough. Smile 

Till then,

Au revoir
