Yeap... back to Malaysia, for now. What a weekend for me last week. This is how my trip goes as I remember. The journeys begin on Friday, brought the bus ticket that departs from KL to Singapore at 5:30PM... and guess what... didn't bloody make it in time to board that bus!!! I was so pissed off at that time… I literally swear at all the words that were coming out from my conversation at that time. I would like to apologies for this bad habit of mine and for those who I have offended… the ala Hulk is not likened here.
Who was it to blame? Who else, but myself.
I didn't plan my time properly prior on taking leave on Friday and then have to take care of some unfinished business before I leave KL to Singapore. Sigh, so what do I do next? I brought another bus ticket to Johore Bahru. I had to inform my sister that I will be late because I didn’t make it to the 5:30PM bus that I was suppose to board.
It so happen that the bus companies stop at one of the rest and relax place at Johore, my sister told me to see whether I was able to board that bus to Singapore that I missed. I happen to be in luck and manage to board that bus from the R&R they have stop for a break. A note to myself in the future, if you are traveling please give yourself and others a 1 hour buffer time before the time of departure.
Reach Singapore at about 11:45PM, my sister came over to pick me up at the Woodlands checkpoint the new place where she's staying, it's located just few kilometers away from the checkpoint. My sis cooked noodles for me for supper, I was hungry I didn’t manage to take my dinner when I were at the R&R because had to catch that 5:30PM bus which I had missed. Slept at 1AM, and that is basically how I spend my 1st day at Singapore.
The next day, wake up at 8AM. Have to get ready and go to Suntec Convention and Exhibition Hall. Covering an event there, so have to be early. Well actually I didn’t know what time that event start and end. So I just have to be there early. Guess what, the event starts at 11AM. My sister and I reach there at about 9:30AM… talk about not getting late again. Note to self again, make sure you know what is the time of any events that you are going to attend in the future.
So we took this time and walk around the Suntec Shopping Complex, she show me around the place. Which I remember how it looks like from my previous trips. Not much change since then, some new shops around. Most of them are restaurant, I think this is the best business that one could make a living at Singapore. My sis had an appointment at 10AM, so she had to leave. Thus I was around the area until the event start… was wandering around the place.
Was at the event from the start to the end, taking photos and talking with my friend who was at the event few days earlier. We had lunch on one of the food court there, I must say I missed Malaysia food when I tasted Singapore ones. No offence to Singapore for their food, but it’s just too healthy. I had the Bamboo Rice with Mince Meet and Salted Egg, and the egg not even salted. Sigh… so I guess if I were to work at Singapore… ill might spend some time preparing my lunch and dinner!!!...
to be continue…
