Classmates' Meetup @ Billy Bombers, Marina Square

Thanks to Noi for organizing this round of meetup for TB030 gang at Billy Bombers, Marina Square. Everyone has been busy, so the turnout was small, with Noi, Nadia and her beau, Sharon, Michell and Peter who joined us for coffee later.

Over dinner, we talked much, but the most interesting topic was on this someone amongst us who became a model. Gee, need I say who she is? After parting with Nadia and Noi at Marina Square, we strolled to Starbucks, Raffles City for extended catching-up session.

Speaking of Starbucks, I have been frequently it quite often these days after my days of 'staying out' from camp became history. Armed with my book (currently, The Five People You Meet in Heaven by Mitch Albom), I will spend hours there just to pass time by at night before heading back to camp.

My lame attempt at being creative


Anyway, for my Hong Kong trip, I meant to blog about it soon after touching down from the airport while my mind is still fresh. But procrastination was a force to be reckoned with. The trip was definitely enjoyable, love the people, the weather and the company. I promise to blog more about my trip once I can afford the time, for now, it's time to pack my bag and head back to camp.

Some photos teaser for my Hong Kong trip, enjoy.



I love this, claypot rice!


Train to Disneyland

Procrastinated

I had dinner with an ex-lecturer and a fellow coursemate over at Jack's Place last week. I was tired having performed duty the night before, but it was all worthwhile. We touched on several topics, enough to cover our stay at the restaurant and our next chill out at Starbucks. In total, I had 2 cups of coffee. I am such a caffeine junkie.

If only I'm done with national service now, I won't have missed the opportunity to work at a local university gaining working experience. owell.

Also received my first early Christmas gift from my coursemate during dinner, as usual, every year.

All these procrastination, my Hong Kong trip itinerary is left undone, not even a draft of it. 6 days more to my trip and I am panicking. I barely manage to book the hotel, it was at the eleventh hour one of the rooms was available and did I grab this chance quick. Anyway, I will be lodging at Prudential Hotel, conveniently located above a MTR station.

Christmas mood is in the air again, I can smell it everywhere. *smile* It's the time of the year to be in Orchard Road and just do nothing but chill lazily at a coffee joint watching the world goes by. Did I say how much the decoration lightning cheers me up? awww.

It's 4am in the morning and I have a matriculation exercise at SMU to attend in the early afternoon. Hope I won't be late. *yawn*

Till the next update, later.

Cameron Highlands and Kuala Lumpur

Quite an eventful October, celebrated Michell's birthday and went for a short holiday up north - Malaysia with Ling and Ron.

Here's a group photo taken over at Michell's chalet,



Humph, regular faces seem to be disappearing from class outing. More participation please!

Next, was my Cameron Highlands and Kuala Lumpur trip with Ron and Ling. Cameron Highlands have such breathtaking view, it was simply amazing especially when you are standing at the top of the hill looking down at the tea plantations. Given the altitude, the air is cooling here and it gets pretty cold in the morning.



Over there, we joined a local tour that brought us around and we climbed slopes to explore the nature. It was all muddy, but I escaped dirt-free in my white jacket, pity my shoes though. :)



Not much of a experience at Equatorial Hotel in Cameron Highlands. We got an apartment instead of a hotel room. There's 2 showers and a living room. Nothing out of the ordinary. Simple and spacious, good enough for short stay.

After one night at Cameron Highlands, we travelled to Kuala Lumpur via coach. The coach was late for 2 hours, spoilt our plan to visit "Eye on Malaysia" in the afternoon.

We stayed in Capitol Hotel, located right in the centre of the shopping distract, Sungei Wang, Bejaya Time Square and Pavilion (must visit!).



Food was great, just don't look at the environment it was cooked in lest it spoils your appetite.



Next in the line is my Hong Kong end of this November. Need to do more research to make sure time is not wasted there. I have yet to book my hotel, gosh!
