Singapore Trip Part 4

so, china town ended our day story session..now lets continue with nigth life time..abra kadabra...phewwww..

actually, before we went to singapore, we had purchased a group ticket from GROUPON..masa tuh ada promotion untuk ke USS dan hippo cruising..RM210 per coupon..ia boleh di katakan murah la jugak sebab masuk USS ticket je biasanya ticket price exceed RM150..dengan berhubung hanya melalui facebook, kami semua berpakat membeli ticket tersebut...kami memang sengaja plan nak naik hippo malam sebab pemandangan singapore kalau malam lagi cantik...tapi sumpah tak tahu hippo tuh berendam kat mana..after surveyed and asking around, the hippo is confirmly situated at CLARK QUAY...sebenarnya dari orchard road tadi, kami dah pun pass by clark quay station..so, ini kira buat pusing balik la..takpe, kalau reason sebab tak tahu, its valid!

kami nampak jambatan tapi kami tak nampak hippo masa keluar dari station..tetiba ada ketua rombongan pelancong dari negara China jerit jerit "IPOH Cruise! IPOH Cruise! " wah!! bukan main besar kami pasang telinga..itu adalah kata kata hikmah! .hahaha, apa lagi, kami pun follow senyap senyap rombongan tu..rupa rupanya, dia bawa kami ke tepi clark quay...masa nih, agak agak dah pandai, kami pun tinggalkan la rombongan cik jenab tuh...

seriously, cantik giler clark quay..tempat nih sebenarnya popular sebab ada bar, club, pelbagai jenis japanesse restaurant, hotel and many more..ala ala The Mines but 10X better...tak payah tergerak hati nak cari makanan halal kat sini ye, memang takkan ada..so kami berjalan and berjalan , crossed over river and arrived at the hippo cruise bay which is at the other side of the train station...we lined up and off we went on the cruise..

 this is the clark quay..a wonderful feeling of romanticism suddenly arouse...

thats the bridge everyone has to crossed over to get to the giant hippo =P

on the cruise along the river side.. nice huh?? 

the pub, the club, the cafe the wat-u-name-it-lah..do you know what are those trusses for?

it is an extreme swing g-max reverse bungy!! truly an extreme death and truly insane..i rasa i boleh mati sakit jantung kat atas tu sorang sorang! demn..never will i try this..

on the cruise mode : cruise bawa kami berjalan jalan ke sekitar sungai..while cruising , ada la brief explaination tentang building's surround..sungguh ku tak amik port..ku hanya perhatikan pemandangan yang sungguh masyuk dengan khusyuk..for a fact, the hippo cruise actually akan berhenti di beberapa pit stop untuk bagi laluan kepada pengunjung mengambil gambr..

 

it was amazing, wasnt it? i am captivated and spelled by the beauuuuutifullll scene..

a lovely small city..really..

 as far as i know, it is amongst 5 luxurious hotel in singapore..i boleh je tidur kat hotel tuh, tapi tidur kat luar la..bweekkkk..hahahah

 
so when the cruise stop for a moment to give away precious minutes for tourist to pictorialise themselves , ntah bagaimana, tiba tiba kami pula decide untuk drop at the river side..orang yang manouver cruise terkejut..haha..he remind us that there should be no turning back..once dah turun, tak boleh naik lagi..bila dia cakap mcm tuh, kami pun sedikit bercelaru...nak turun ke tak? cruise tuh supposed to be 30 minutes ride,..kami baru naik 10 minute..hmm...last last dengan menggunakan otak genius yang dah nak hampir malap, we decided to turun..sebab utama ialah kesuntukan masa..kami belom melawat  cik lion-keluar-air-dari-mulut lagi..kedua, kami kesuntukkan masa untuk kejar train station yang bakal tutup pukul 11.00.. ketiga, kami kena balik ke hostel sebelum pukul 12 sebab ingat tak? kami belom check in hostel lagi...and yang ke empat, sebab paling munasabah adalah kami dah tak larat nak berjalan balik dari cruise depo to the train station..owh no..no no..

so, bila sudah turun dari cruise, we walk along the riverside again..but this time, we headed to merlion and marina bay!! horayyy...its time to show off to the people out there that we've been to singapore..the legendary statue of singapore..the symbolization of singapore..the me and the lion patung!! vat??!!  =P (puak jakun sudah mari! )

 

you see the crowd..they also belong to my puak u know!.. =)

the esplanade..only then i know that it is actually an ART Performing Center for Singapore


marina bay...wahh...selama nih tengok dalam gambar bagai, kali nih, depan mata live!..fuhhh...puas hati..siap ada laser show lagi malam kami dtg..terima kasih la cik kiah and pak mail yang ada kat atas bangunan tuh, sebab sambut kami dengan meriah..har har har..

 thank god kami tak amik package eye on sg waktu purchase ticket via groupon..sapa yang larat nak pegi sana la agaknya??

dah ambil gambar puas giler, kami pun balik..its almost 10.30 pm...one hour and half left before reception counter hostel closed..we rush to the esplanade station untuk balik..pics below is when we were in the esplanade..did you grab any "art-sy" things that they try to deliver?? i cant! i was so tired that i could see a rags hanging onto a wooden stick..hahaha..

 flat..battery semua low..no food and drink since lunch.. fuhh

 even so! hahahah..
  my suggestion, my recommendation and my advise is that, if you didnt plan to walk for another 1km to reach the train rail, please do not proceed to take this station..because, walaupun the train station is under the esplanade center, but seriously i tak tahu la berapa petala bumi yang kami dah masuk untuk sampai ke train station bawah esplanade ini..sekejap naik escalator..sekejap turun..naik naik naik..and tetiba kena turun turun turun..and then kena jalan 500 meter, belok kiri kanan..pusing pusing, baru la nampak train rail...sumpah tak tipu, jauh giler bangang!!!    i jarang cakap bangang, tapi kalau i dah cakap bangang kat sini, maknanya memang jauh..sebijik macam lubang tikus/rumah tikus yang kaya raya..haihhh

dalam train, everybody put themselves in silent mode..sumpah penat..when we were emotionally hype, everything is sweet like popcorn..tapi bila dah penat, semua busuk!  busuk??? ye cik cun and abang hensem..seharian kami tak mandi..paham paham je la..abang-galah lagi wangi dari kitorang..

kami turun di Farrer Park station..sebab kami nak pegi the city square mall untuk makan malam..pukul 11, mana la ada kedai makanan yang buka..pak guard mall pun dah kunci pintu grill...but then, kami nampak mcd..itu pun dah cleaning session..tapi ada la satu dua customer....so what we did? we planned to ngorat pak guard tuh..si miji buat buat sedih kata kitorang lapar, seharian tak makan..yang gegurl semuadah senyum senyum mcm kambing gatal..last last, pak guard termakan seduction kami..dia allowed kami masuk mall..tapi dia kata, keluar pakai pintu lain..tak pe..itu beres...hoyeah.dapat makan mcd..mcd di sg halal ya tuan tuan dan puan puan..kitorang mkn cepat cepat and naik train semula ke next station, mrt boon keng station..pagi tadi kami boleh je jalan dari hostel ke city square, tapi bila dah malam, nak jalan balik ke hostel rasa mcm jauhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh sgt...owh no!

sesampai je mrt boon keng, kitoang tersalah ambil exit..ada tiga exit..A,B, and C..those exit lead to a different place..we supposed to go to exit C,  ntah kenapa, otak dah malap, kami terambil exit A and B..demn..setiap kali keluar dari bawah tanah je, semua orang tercengang cengang..eh, this isnt supposed to be our EXIt..then turun underground balik, masuk exit B..the same thing happend..oh God, kali nih kaki rasa mcm nak tercabut je..kalau boleh cabut and pasang balik, i rasa macam nak baling je kaki ini biar sampai ke hostel dulu..hahahah..just imagine! time shown 11.45pm..dah takde orang pun kat train..i tak peduli apa orang nak kata..i pun buka la kasut and jalan barefooted sepanjang di bawah tanah..huk huk huk.dear fren, please be sure on the route you supposed to take ok! mesej ini di bawakan khas dari kami =)

otw balik ke hostel..

so bila sampai ke hostel, kami masuk ke bilik masing masing and mandi..dylla like a "kong" battery..straight away tdow..tak tukar baju atau apa apa pun..me, zati and ochai took turn to shower..while waiting and massaging our feet, tetiba kami bercadang nak ke MUSTAFAR CENTER!! sungguh tak sedar diri dah penat...tadi konon nak nangis kepenatan! bengong! haha

tahu tak mustafa center tuh apa? mustafa center tuh adalah shopping mall / warehouse untuk barang barangan import dari luar negara yang di buka 24 hours a day!! kiranya ini shopping mall paling rajin la..operation wise non-stop..ia seakan akan mydin..tapi kalau mydin jual barang2 dari malaysia atau china, di mustafa center, chocolate, biskut, baju, t shirt, bag, pinggan mangkuk and semua branded items are originally imported from oversea, especially UK..station paling dekat untuk ke sini adalah farrer park station..alah, station yang dekat dengan city square mall tuh..dalam sehari dah 4 kali kot kami berjalan ke tempat yang sama..haha..ada 2 warehouses nearby the station, tapi i cant tell you where is the other one...i pergi yang jauh punya..anyway!

 take note ye my valued reader, the best things to shop in mustafa center adalah perfumes..true as what my cousin said, perfume dia murah murah..sila la shopping perfume di sini..example, Lancome berapa liter i tak sure tapi size yang besar sekali hanya $79 dollar..itu murah ok..

because of we (except for dylla) wanted to fully utilized our precious time in singapore, we decided to go to mustafa at 2 am in the morning,,,yup!! we went shopping in the morninggg and ktorang pegi mall tu pakai baju tdow je..kelasssss x?? terasa diri ini mcm clown cuma takde payment je..pakai seluar merah polka dot putih, tudung kelabu asap, baju pink, cardigan biru and selipar jamban..bersepah color block aku..tapi, ada aku kesahhh?? hahah.. 2 am jalan kat serangoon road, kami berempat..ta de sapa kisah..

 i tak bawa kamera pun ke mall tu..cukup cukup latuh..malam - malam bahaya berjalan bawa slr..
sampai di mustafa, kami straight away shopping chocolate..banyak giler jenis chocolate yang available..
kit-kat adalah normal chocolate..tapi kalau kit kat tuh sepanjang siku ke hujung jari, itu abnormal atau pun cacat okay..cadbury adalah normal, tapi kalau cadbury choc's thickness sampai 2 inch, itu adalah abnormal! gagaga...my advise, all these chocolates are imported from UK..halal tak halal, i tak sure..u sendiri kena check..usually, chocolate from oversea diorang akan gunakan E-Code..check the E-code ok..i yang percaya common choc ada lah halal, beli chocolate sampai 6 packets..one small size kit-kat special choc for backpacker...2 packet of chocolate rock,1 kg each...and another 3 packets abnormal cadbury crunchie..i spent $40 = RM100 for that particular section with total choc weight up to 3 kg! demn..my backpack weight will surely increase..

after chocolate section, we proceed to perfumes section...theres no sales girls or salesman at that particular section..just imagine!! boleh giler tengok perfume mahal mahal ni bersepah depan mata..you can try gucci flora anytime you wish, you can spray jadore estee lauder kat anytime as you wish, boleh smell Hugo Boss, Polo Lauren, Elizabeth Arden and apa macam lagi yang u nak, free free je..sebab FYI, diorang arrange perfume macam diorang arrange susu tin kat k-mart Low Sit Fat.. sangat tak presentable..hahah..bila dah tak presentable, rasa was was barang barang ini ori ke tak pun datang sejenak..BUT, itu hanya seketika sahaja..setelah di tilik tilik dan di renung renungkan, we 90% believe  that the perfumes is original..dont worry pal, treat yourself one..

owh, kalau u planned untuk beli souvenir di sini, i rasa u better beli kat tempat lain..souvenir kat sini tak berapa cantik and tak banyak pilihan..key-chain dia tak cantik..t-shirt singapore dia low quality sikit..and plug plate semua design lama..tak best tak best..so i yang plan nak beli souvenir kat mustafa ini terus tak jadi..meaning that esok, monday i have to plan my own schedule, kena patah balik ke china town untuk beli banyak lagi souvenir..chaiyoukk

selepas berjimba shopping kat mustafa center, time untuk balik..jam menunjukkan pukul 3.30 am, half hour earlier than our expected time to return...kami berjalan slow slow pulang ke hostel...fuhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...sampai je hostel, i collapsed!! langsung tak dengar apa dah..diorang kata pagi tuh diorang tak boleh tdow sebab hujan lebat giler, lightning strokes, thunder storming..ntah betul ke tak i tak tahu..i tidow rileks je..kih kih kih...you letak bom atom versi amareka pun gua tak bangun..percaya la..
