Should've finished writing long ago. Haha! Anywayyyy!
Continued from #481
Next morning woke up at 6am. As I wanted to have my shower there were so many... Javanese at bathroom. Queuing. 6.30am get down to the kitchen. Had light breakfast as previously. 7.00am-ish started our journey to Sentosa Island. The main event, UNIVERSAL STUDIO SINGAPORE! Yeap we were very much excited. Hopped on to MRT at Lavender, I think. It was during rush hour. Many people were walking and boarding the train. Changed train at Outram Park, and head on to Harbour Front.
We reached there at 8.00am-ish considering our friend had arrived at Singapore that morning from KL. Thought he had arrived but not yet. Rush hour. Waited for half hour or so. Used their public toilet there and found out there is no water. Luckily I checked it first before doing my business. Anyway, my friends had breakfast at McD there then we walked from Vivo City to the Sentosa Island. Reached at Sentosa around 9.30am-ish. Searched for the locker. It is near to the USS entrance. Will cost you around $20 for a big locker for a day. Our bags were big and there were three bags.
Claimed our Groupon ticket at the window counter then enter the USS! But disappointment of the day, the two roller coaster were closed for maintenance. Nonetheless it was nice but I was expecting more rides and more fun rides. By 3.30pm we finished all adult rides. Rest a little. Watched Sesame Street show. Took some pictures with characters. By 5.00pm we exit and bought a coin souvenir for SGD2.
From Harbour Front MRT, we disembarked at Bishan, boarded there to Kranji MRT. Boarded bus SBS 170 to Johor Bharu. Have to wait a bit longer because there were many people in the bus. Around 7.00pm arrived at Larkin, took the car from my Grandpa's house. Had our dinner at some RM5 chicken chop restaurant. A lot of people there because of the price. Started our journey back to KL at 9.00pm. Arrived in Subang at midnight.
It was a fun journey. Would love to visit Singapore again soon and spend time at the park. Planned to go to a park at East Coast Lagoon but time constraint and it was too far from other places. Sad thing our Malaysia Ringgit is getting weak against Singapore. Hoping for a better future.
Next stop?
Wait for next stop in May!

Went to the Singapore the other day with some friends.
Started our journey from Subang to Temasek like 8.30am-ish. Then arrived in JB around 11.30am-ish. We thought of getting lunch first before getting into Singapore. Good decision. Saved some money just because our currency is not doing well. RM2.585 was the rate I exchange at Paradigm Mall two days before this trip.
Parked the car at my relative's house. Walk to the Larkin. When we reached there, super annoying. This one dude keep following me asking, "Pergi mana dik? KL? Seremban?" non-stop. I said no its okay but then still following. This is worst than Puduraya.
Anyway, we bought a ticket to the Kranji MRT station in Singapore. It costs us RM2.20. I remember I went there in 2010 and it was RM1.60? We reached at the Kranji MRT around 2pm-ish after went through both countries' immigration. Decided to bought a pass which function like a Touch 'n' Go. $SGD5 for deposit plus $SGD7 for the amount in it. Tapped the card and off we go to Lavender MRT station. When I get out from the MRT station I was like so happy to see so many bicycles around there. I think the government really supportive of this cycling. From young to old people uses bicycle to go around. Saw old people using electrical bicycle. So fast.
The place we stayed for 2 nights was Backpackers@SG at Jalan Besar. It is a hostel where one room will have many double decker beds. So, you are lucky if you get the good roommate. After we checked in and rest for awhile, we immediately get out from the hostel. Walked to Little India not far away from the hostel. Went into Mustafa shopping centre. Bought some cekedis and drinks. Then get out from there and see the place. There is a square there where people will go there and lepak. So many Indians there. Flooded! They are even stand there and just watch WWE at near restaurant. Joined the crowd for awhile. Telling myself not to be scared, be vigilant and experience it.
We walked into City Square Mall and saw some jumping thing in the mall. Rest for awhile. There are so many interracial couple dating. Then we walked to the Arab street from Little India. On our journey we found some kind of Pasar Karat near Kelantan road or something. They are selling antique things. Many Mat Salleh were there too. With tight budget, only brought $SGD100 we cannot simply buy anything so just look around.
We arrived at Arab Street to see a Singaporean friend there. Had a chat and dinner around there for almost 2 hours till I get shiver. The aircond in the restaurant was really cold. At 10pm we walked to MRT Bugis station together. Arrived at the hostel around 10.30pm. We have a new roommate from Penang. Had a quick bath then poof! into dreamland.
