Hey.... Is a long weekend again, isnt tt good?

Been looking forward to this for very long, is my first time been as land transport for the nuahz cyclist. So excited abt it. But dear says that it will be quite "boring" for us. Coz we cant travel fast, we need to keep stopping to ensure their safety and to replenish them with food and drinks. Mostly must tk photos of them. There are 2 cars to be their land transport, Cindy's and Dear's car. Total of 134km to cycle from Singapore to Mersing. They will need the whole day to travel up. Guess we will reach mersing at dinner's time. Hope that the weather will be fine, as extreme hot weathers will decrease the performance of the cyclist.

Need to sleep early tonight. As we are meeting at Causway at 5.30AM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow... ... Dman early, but no choice.... Tata... Will update you all in details when I'm back. (Depends, if I'm busy, then I wont have time to update).... See you soon... ...

It was a long and hetic at work. It seems there's always endless work that I could finish. The workload keep piling up and at times I dont know which to priorties. Nobody is to guide me in this new trade, is really hard. Real tired........

But...... Looking forward to tonight's dinner. Is at dear's club, as he has $90 to use under his membership. So, why not, otherwise the $90 will be forfietted. What a waste... Heeee..... The ambience of the restaurant is good. Quiet, playing smoothing music, well decorated, I like that place. First we were serve with bread and butter, followed by a plate of mixed appetiser which consist of musscle, sotong, pickles. Then follwed by our main dish. Dear had ordered lamb, the actual name of the dish I couldnt remembered. Mine is baked cod fish. To my surprised, the plate was warm too. Which a lot of restaurant neglected this. I was impressed. The ultimate is the dessert. [[Bomb Alaksa]] It's a ice-cream cake with liquor on top of it. First, the cake will be "flame" by the liquor to get "burnt". Nice performance by the waiter. It was my first time having this Russian dessert. It was nice, guess the waiter poured alot of the liquor which make the dessert taste weird. In overall, it was still nice.

Fine Dinning is nice, but cant have it all the time.

On Sunday, we went to Courts @ Toa Payoh to shop for fax machine. His mum needs it for work related issue. At the end, didnt manage to buy one. Is either too expensie or is juz not that practical to pay for it. Although you can see sales sign everywhere, basically jux couldnt get any good stuff from there. Might as well go to Sim Lim Square, which you can look for the best price . Like for instance, dear bought a Epson Printer CX3700 for $169, whereas Courts selling at $188. You see????

Didnt manage to buy a fax machine back. At the end, we met up with the nuahz cyclist at one of the petrol station at Toa Payoh. Coincidence rite??? Ya... This prove that Singapore is real damn small... Alvin had given us his keys to his house. Hey, suppose arent we going home after that? Hmmm... Oh well, we didnt have any plans after shopping at Toa Payoh, so we went ahead with the idea of going to his hse, to wait for the nuahz ppl to finish up the last click of their training.

Had a fabulous dinner at his hse. Alvin is really a great cook. Must learn more from him. Hee Hee... So in future I can cook for my dear . After dinner, Linda was briefing on the cycling trip to Mersing. Time passed so fast that we couldnt even realise that the trip is actually on the coming weekend. I am quite excited abt it. Hope it will be fun. (",)

On the way home, suddenly dear asked me "We have been travelling on this road for so many times. Could you remember? Or name the Expressway that I used?" Wow... I dont even bother. Seriously, no doubt abt it. Dear says is good to be more observant and he thinks that a person couldnt live w/o directions and he thinks that I am lack in this area. But is the truth, I am quite useless whenever in direction. Guess need to think abt it and revamp myself. I guess everyone have to go through the learning progress. Neither do I, is time that I learnt and be be a bit more "sense of direction".

=13th to 16th April 06=

Good Friday is on the way, and it reminds me of how Jesus die for us on the cross to redeem our sins. How magnificance is He. How noble is He too. For this yr I couldnt go to the church for Easter Sunday as I will be away for a short holiday to KL and Melaka.

The journey starts......... On thursady night.........

Looking forward to the holiday through the midst of my work. Was keep looking at my watch. "Hey, when is the time for me to knock off ". Was keep on praying that there wont be any last minute thing at work, so that I could leave work on the dot. Lucky for me.. There isnt, so indeed I really leave the office at 6pm!!!!! Finally... In an hour time I will on my way to KL..!!!!! The bus came late, I got quite anxious abt it coz I haven have my bag packed. So was like a guanchong spider... Like dont know what to do.....

Dear, Qiwei and Lifang reached my house at ard 8.10pm. We were the the last car to leave to KL. MingHao and Hendry were already on the way le. They start off at 7pm. Why make a big fuss of it when at the end, everybody reached KL at abt the same time. Furthermore, we were the first to reach the hotel. What's all abt to agrue??? Right?? Dear was quite "pissed". Guess he said something to MingHao. All these delay was caused by MingHao, he was late for the 7pm. SEE.... I ALREADY SAID THAT 7PM IS TOO RUSH!!!!! How is that possible to make it ma.... Use common sense lar....

Dear was very hungry........ Is my very first time saw him "rushed" to the food stall to order his food, once we reached the 1st resting point. Later, I found out that dear didnt managed to have his lunch. All "thanks" to his colleagues. As they had lunch over 2 hours. Dear, I will be worried for you. Is not good for your health ya... PLEASE REMEMBER THAT!!!! I suppose to keep him company by talking to him on the way to KL, so that he wouldnt be falling asleep. Guess I did fall asleep at certain point of the jurney. Sorry ya!!!!!

Reached KL at ard 1am. Huarry!!! Finally we are here!!!!!!!! The lift of the hotel was quite small, only could allow 4 person to be in the lift. Can you imagine that??? What if the lift broke down??? Not enough oxygen leh!!!! Will die!!!!

After checking in, a total of 11 of us which are Daryl, Suzanne, BK, Hendry, Minghao, Sharon, Lifang, Qiwei, Jeff, dear and me were wandering the street of KL. We were looking for some pub for drinks. Hendry was thirst for beer. But we didnt know that all the clubs in KL closed at 2pm on thursday. Hendry even went to ask for road direction from the police. See how "desperate" is he... Hee Hee.... At the end, went into a pub where we saw a lots of Indonesian or Philipians and "Ang Moh" and Ah Guay!!! I dont like the environment, the music damn loud, was like bursting my ear drums. Perhaps I am feeling tired, don't have the mood for clubbing or pubbing. But the whole grp of ppl were going, I dont want to spoilt their mood, so jux went ahead. Pub till ard 3am ba, then we head bck to hotel. Had wanton mee for supper. After having supper the rest still went to 7-elven to buy more beers to drink in the hotel. Really Pei fu them!!!!

Friday, we couldnt wake up on time for the breakfast offer by the hotel. Had brunch at one of the roadside stall. After having brunch, is shopping spree time... Heee!!!! In total I had bought 3 pairs of shoes, jeans, necklaces, ear-rings, key pouch, and mangos!!!! The weather isnt that good. It rained and we had to buy an umbrella to go bck to hotel. Places we had shopped like Sungei Wang, BB Plaza, Lot 10, Mid Valley, Chinatown.

Had our dinner at Chinatown. We had the famous "Lao shu fen" at one of the vallys. Still quite alright lar, but I still prefer the "Sa po fan". After dinner, we went to Zouk . Was on the verge of getting into the club but suddenly we came to realise that the guys dont have proper attire to enter. They need a collar shirt to enter to velvet. Shit!!!! We didnt think of that. As Singapore velvet isnt that strict. We thought KL too, make a mistake there. Haiz... What to do? We left with no choice, juz had to go to other chiong place. Later on we went to Rum Jungle where's a live band, the music was quite alright. All of them drank to their hearts content. Was dancing, drinking, taking photos... All so crazy... Dear and I left first, coz I think I couldnt make it le. Need to go bck and rest first. Lucky dear is there, otherwise I couldnt imagine what will happen to me???

Is checked out time on Saturday. Had wanton mee for lunch. Guess if I didnt remembered wrongly, I had wantoon mee for the past few days. Will get sick of it. After lunch, Hendry, Daryl and Suzanne went bck to Singapore. The rest will head to Melaka for another night there.

Once again, I fall asleep while on the way to Melaka. Hee... Seems like a lazy pig who keep sleeping/dozing off. Reached Melaka in an hours time. Was quite fast. Was abit lost of finding the Hotel. But we "Ai zai" ma.... So no problem for us. Hee Hee.... The hotel at Melaka was damn shiok. It even had a kitchen. Family room for 7 of us. Full room air-conditioned. Was really damn shiok, we even have a sea view of it!! Not bad ya... At least is much better than the one in KL. Once we reached cheked in the hotel, we went shopping again. Hee....

We had our dinner at the famous teochew restaurant. Guess one the food variety show did visit them (Singapore). The restaurant only can take in abt 7 tables in one go. So definitely need booking. Lucky the boss was kind enough to let us have a table. Otheriwse I will missed out the yummy "OH NI" le... Is teochew tpicial dessert. Guess we spend how much on the food??? Is ard RM392. Guess this was the most expensive meal that we had among the days.

The whole journey to Melaka, MingHao and BK was having the "Boss and employee" game. As BK didnt hv much RM left, so he have to "depend" on Minghao for his spending in Melaka. It was funny. He keep addressing Minghao "Yes, boss.... Must follow boss,.... I will follow whatever Boss says....." It make us realise that is no harm changing more. Must bear that in mind....!!!!

We had our breakfast at ard 9plus on Sunday morning. Wanted to go for a swim after breakfast, but I didnt have proper swim wear, so couldnt swim. They dont allow bikini ma... Haiz.... Not less than 2 hours, we had our lunch again. Went to hv the famous chicken rice at Melaka. Wow!!!! It was quite small. It's specialties is the rice. It looks like fishballs. They shaped the rice into small little balls. Each person will get 5 balls of rice. Not more or less than that. The chicken was quite "tough", but they said this is how kampong chicken tasted. Overall, I still prefer chicken rice in Singapore.

Left Melaka at abt 12.40pm, reach Singapore 4.30pm. On the way bck to Singapore, we went to hunt for durains. But no valid.. Guess is nt the season for durian yet. Hope that the trip to Mersing in 2 weeks time will hv it.

Is the first time that I had spend time with dear in foreign country. Although is just at KL and Melaka what matters to me was his company. Get to know him more during the trip. Time really flies... But there is always another trip to look forward to. Isnt that so???Guess the other trip that I am going to spend with him is the trip to Mersing with the nuahz cyclist. It will be fun.... :)
