haven't blogged for more than a week already! haha... so busy... christmas was as usual... hahas... nice presents though! haha... hmm... hold on... let me blog the whole of last weekMONDAYcan't really remember... HAHATUESDAYwoke up at 3am. left by car for Kuala Lumpur. was 5 plus before we finally left. we reached at 11 plus... checked into MiCasa All Suite Hotel, then went out for lunch. took taxi. wanted to go to Tai Thong Restaurant, but taxi brought us to the place where the restaurant WAS. it had shifted... instead, we ate at a nearby coffee shop. after eating, went back to hotel... went to the gym, swam, then rested... about 6 plus, took taxi again (parents don't like to drive in KL, cos the road system is quite confusing) to the place where the Tai Thong Restaurant IS. haha... was opposite the KLCC. ate until so full! But, boy, the pig trotters were SOO good! HAHA... after that, we went back to the hotel. rested a while, then my father, mother, gran and me went out to walk a bit... shopped a bit, then went back to sleep... haha...WEDNESDAYwoke up at 9... I think... then went for the breakfast. quite good... after eating till fit to burst(HAHA) we went back to to suite to rest... about 10am, we went down to swim again... haha... swam for about an hour then bathed and checked out... dumped out bags into the car then waited with my grandmothers at the poolside while my sis and parents went to buy our dinner at Jalan Alor (I think that's how it's spelled...) when they came back, had an eventful 2 hr ride(we got lost again in KL) to Colmar Tropicale (a but further than Genting), a french town replica hotel. quite nice... quite authentic, though I find it a bit fake... haha... prefer the real one.... HAHAHA... checked in, then brought our bags up to our room... was very spacious, but a bit bare... explored the place... then ate dinner in our room (the prices at the restaurants there were EXHORBITANT! that's why we brought food from KL). after tea/dinner, slept for a while... at 6 plus, i woke everyone up to go to the gym... hahaha... walked around again, explored again... haha... was tired, then went back and slept.THURSDAYwoke up at 7 plus... went to the gym, wanted to swim, but was cold. then we went for breakfast(not quite nice as MiCasa's). after that, went out to see the miniature train exhibition and then expolore the outer area... they had a fake drawbridge and moat... quite nice... they even had swans in the moat... after that, checked out and headed back for KL. got lost again in KL, then finally found our next hotel, Holiday Villa, Apartment Suites. it was quite near MiCasa. checked in... then went out for lunch at chinatown (quite nice)... then went back (there was a jam along the way...). went to swim and exercise at the gym... at about 7.30pm, went to Jalan Alor to eat. had the orjian, was soo nice. also had wan ton mee, claypot rice, beef kway teow etc etc... haha. by the time we had finished, was very full. haha... took taxi back to hotel and then rested.FRIDAYwoke up quite early... went for the breakfast, watched tv, then went to swim... at 12 plus, we checked out and drove to go to Petaling Jaya to eat, but instead, we passed Jalan Tiga and decided to eat there... the place was quite grotty(haha) but the food was damn nice. after eating, we headed for Singapore. slept on the way... when I woke up, we were in Muar. got lost again... then finally found the 'glutton' street and ate there. after that, was getting dark. didnt want to get stuck on the old road before it got pitch black, so we hurried to the highway. halfway, it rained. by the time we got to the highway(phew!) it was quite dark. then we drove all the way back to JB. stopped at JB to pump petrol and wash the car, then drove to the causeway. was quite jammed up... thanks to my mother's assertive driving (haha), we got back to Singapore at about 11.15 pm. dropped my grandmother off at Holland, then went back home. Unpacked, watched a bit of tv, then went to sleep...SATURDAYwoke up around 9... went out walking with my parents at Bukit Timah. came back, ate lunch then felt sick. had headache and was feeling cold. slept the whole afternoon (woke up at about 3pm to vomit) then woke up at about 7. was feeling better(Thank Goodness). went to eat dinner at my mom's friend's place. froie gras, duck, chocolate cake etc etc... i always love to eat there... haha... though fattening... came back about 12.30pm, then watched tv and went to sleep.SUNDAYwoke up, read a bit, then about 1, left for Parkway Parade to have lunch with my gran and cousins and aunts and uncles. went to Parkway Thai Restaurant and had buffet. was quite full. then we went back (my sis needed to go to the toilet). after that, we went to Toa Payoh to get my haircut and shop a bit... came back, then left again to my grandmother's place for dinner. came back, tired, watched tv till 2 plus and then slept.TODAYwoke up, walked at MacRitchie with my parents and my gran(she came in the morning). had lunch at home and now very tired... gonna have a nap soon... hahas..."He who laughs last, laughs the loudest." - Anon.I have another one..."He who laughs last, thinks the slowest." - Anon.
