went to watch Sherlock Holmes on sunday with hy, yq, shirley... at first, jl can make it but she have smth on and needs to go back for dinner... went to have dinner first at one restaurant... forgot what's the name already. jl join us too. sat there till around 5.25pm then went to buy some drinks and sent jl off home and went in...
it was quite a nice movie... the actors were quite handsome... but i don't really like the ending... well... not a bad movie in all... can go watch. :) sherlock holmes is super incredible... deduction skills... superb!!! maybe i will go watch again if anyone wants to watch... haha.
so after the movie, we went to the library with hy... then we were talking to go arcade play to help hy de-stress... so we went to play... very fun... haha. played till 10.15pm then headed home...
went escape on monday with TGC. and i was super late. we meant to meet at 9am and i woke up at 9am. so i was rushing, bathe and pack stuff... met them at 9.30am downstairs... was so sorry and guilty about it... then we went macdonalds for breakfast and head off to je mrt. chatted on the train... sharon went korea. heard from her that the things there are not as expensive... still affordable... all along, i thought that korea is an expensive country. well... maybe only some places are not expensive. not bad. i also want to go korea someday!!! but it may be a 5 years' later kind of thing... haha. reached there at about 11.15am, took the free shuttle bus to downtown east. reached there at 11.30am... bought the tickets at only $6.30!!! fl got a one-for-one voucher and she got nebo card, so her ticket was $7.50, free one person, another 2 $17.70, free one person... so total each person only pay $6.30. i think the counter person counted wrongly, the $7.50 shouldn't be free one person... so we were lucky. haha. went wet & wild first, as the weather was quite hot... and in the end, my whole shorts and shirt was wet... the person sitting behind had the most water splash. haha. but it was fun la. we tried almost all the games. haunted house(they asked me to go la! but it was not as scary. no real person acting as ghost), yakult, ferris wheel(it break down when the next one to alight was sharon and i!!!and shiting and fenglan already got off!), go-kart(only fenglan and i tried as sharon and shiting didn't want to), wet & wild, aeroplane, roller coaster and pirate ship(i was scared of this but they asked me to try. i tried and i sat nearest to the middle but i still can't get over this fear! when it was coming down, my legs were shaking and got cramps while my hands were shaking too and held on tightly to the pole... wah. terrible!!! but i think if u sit another 2 to 3 more times, it will be okay already... just that i don't know whether i will survive even the 2nd one or not! ) ...
ate orange julius for lunch(a hotdog) and wanted to continue playing. but it started pouring. heavily! (around 1.40pm) we waited for a while and decided to go arcade to play. haha. somehow got addicted to the car games there. saw some zai ppl driving manual there. super good skills. i can't drive manually there although i got a manual licence... it is different somehow... too fast i think. haha. we played till 4pm and went to have our early dinner at just acia! free flow drinks and ice-cream. got 10% discount for students before 5pm too. that is why we had an early dinner! haha. quite a cheap place for dining... then we continued playing till around 7.45pm and headed home... went to imm to buy 50% discounted sushi before home... haha. whole body aching now...
today... went ducktours with my mum. it was a free ride as my mum use her points for this... we didn't sit ducktours before so we decided to give it a try... it was a messy scene when we reached. so many ppl, not sure where to line up. too little counter ppl... wah. and this is supposed to be a tourist attraction activity and everything is so... confused? mixed up? disorganized is the word i suppose.
so at 12pm, we waited for the 'duck' to come and the ppl to alight so that we can board. while the people are alighting, there was a kid with his mum who fell down while coming down the stairs. guess what? no one came to help. there was this crew who just stared and i am not sure whether she helped them or not. then she walked away with a face saying that 'wah. not my fault'. that is what i deduced la. so inconsiderate... in my mind, i was thinking ' it is going to be all these people who damaged the reputation of singapore!' =.= really a pity. imagine beside my mum and i, all are tourists! and they saw this scene! well. well. well.
so we board the 'duck'... went around the fountain of wealth and head to the river... went on the sea. a little bumpy but no water splash at all! i think if there is a little water splash, the kids will like it more! went around the sea. merlion, floating platform, marina bay sands resort construction and many more...top 3 highest buildings. not bad. the tour guide told us some history of singapore which i didn't even know! haha. so my knowledge of singapore grew a little bit from this tour. the travelling time on the sea took about 35mins to 40mins i think. then we u-turned back to the land... went around supreme court, padang and others. then went back to suntec city boarding area... it was quite a fun experience, except that it gets boring at some times. took some pictures too!
i think other countries should have such tours so that tourists will know more about the country there are visiting... although it may not be as worth as the price stated. haha. but it is still a good activity to do when tourists are in singapore. :)
so after ducktours, we went to have our lunch ( i was super hungry, didn't had my breakfast! ) and walked around suntec city... headed home afterwards...
so now i am at home! heard from my sis who heard from weijie that our GPA is out! so i went to check... hmm. i must see the individual grades before i can decide whether to be happy or sad. but for now, my GPA is not what i want it to be. have to wait till tmr! good luck to me! :)
