1-day Trip to JB

Yepz, I was in JB today. For a "getaway" with three of my NIE schoolmates.

We met at 11am at Woodlands MRT Station and took a bus into JB. My first time using the electronic passport scanning machine. So funny. I think I looked so much like a small boy trying out the gantry... my friends said that I was smiling to myself after using it. Ha.

Anyway, the first stop was at City Square, where we had lunch at a Chinese cooked food "restaurant" sort of place. I tried the 生面, which didn't really resemble the Singapore version except for the sauce I think. The noodle wasn't the normal one whereby it's just left eh... I think... uncooked with the sauce poured over it. We walked around for a while after that, mainly shopping for shoes because one of the girls wanted to buy a pair or two. Well, the store didn't have the size for the shoe that she wanted. There was a branch at Holiday Plaza which had it though, but we didn't know where that place is. Ha.

It was then a short trip in a taxi to our next stop, Plaza Pelangi, or something to that effect, for our KTV session at Red Box Karaoke. Quite an enjoyable session with lots of laughter. Much cheaper than going to K-Box in Singapore as well. Even the free drinks are more exciting, creative and nice to drink. Ha. Six hours of singing, a mini buffet dinner (the food is not as good as K-Box Marina's K-Dinner) and tons of laughter.

Headed back to Singapore at around 9.15pm or so... and managed to reach home by 10.50pm, after taking the wrong train at Jurong East MRT Station. Woke from my short sleep on the train, exited from the correct door from the middle train, thought that I got off at the wrong side, so I went through the middle train over to the wrong side and boarded the train. Blur blur me... Ha. Only realised that it was wrong after two stops :P
