wow... this is my 100th post le!! bu zhi bu jue zhong i had crapped for 100 posts.. haha.. anyway, today's post is to update my memorable christmas eve.. haha.. so be prepared for long entry~
went to vivo city with my sec frens.. my 1st time going there.. haha.. it is really big but i don't think got alot things to shop ler.. most of the shops are more to high-end.. so for a poor girl like me really will not enjoy shopping there.. cos most of the time i will be doing window shop and 'cursing' at the price.. lol..
back to the topic, we went to vivo to celebrate belated bday for a fren.. but this gal was so busy that day, can only meet the rest of us in the nite.. thus, we went for a late-lunch-early-dinner at this hong kong restaurant - Kim Gary - got a good table, overall the food and the price was acceptable.. 4 ppl for the price of $50.. oh ya, the lady who attended to us while we queued was so cheerful and humourous..brightened up my mood in the rainy weather..
after which, we shop for her present and for ourselves.. haha.. but i bought nothing.. so sad.. our bday gal was still on the way.. so we went to coffee bean to give ourselves a break from the shopping.. finally, she and her bf arrived.. according to her bf, there was a countdown at vivo (but i didnt agree with him, i only remembered there's only countdown for the new yr, not xmas) we went to the rooftop area, watch the beautiful nite scene.. den, he suddenly suggested to take cable car to sentosa to countdown.. haha.. so gao xiao..
before taking the cable car, we went to the hypermarket to buy snacks and drinks.. haha.. since her bf has a fren working at the harbourfront cable car station, thus, we got the 2-way ticket at a special price.. hoho.. we were so excited about it.. to me, it had been a long time since i took it.. i took a few photos inside the cable car.. it's a pity that i nv brought along my camera..
we found a good location at palawan beach to have our own mini countdown.. there were quite a few groups of people gathering.. so was not that quiet.. there were also cyclists who kept shouting ''merry x'mas'' as they past by every groups.. the bday gal's bf is very funny, he always replied ''happy new year''.. anyway, we stayed there for quite awhile, den were debating whether or not to stay on till next morning or rush back to take the cable car and take taxi home(remembered ours were 2-way tickets).. we decided on the 1st option cos 1stly, we seldom came out to dawn especially at sentosa, 2ndly, we wanted to save a sum on cab.. haha..
we stayed till 5am, den walked all the way out to harbourfront centre.. so tiring.. becos i was wearing heels!! zzz.. anyway, my fren and i took the lead to explore our route out.. haha.. actually just follow the road sign will do.. haha.. but got 2 parts which were very scary.. the 1st part is where the huge merlion is situated at.. we were walking up the slope behind the merlion.. so scary to see its back to side view cos at that point of time there was no light and the sun was still asleep.. imagine a huge statute near u.. some more, the merlion can look scary when there is no lights around it.. haha..
we were walking on the road most of the time, there was a few times where cars were speeding pass us.. so dangerous.. but we had no choice, cos the road was the brightest path.. another scary part is where we were at the bridge looking for the way to enter the walkway(that linked us back to the main island).. there is this underpass.. inside is totally pitch black.. can't even see what is inside.. plus, there were bullfrogs making noise and the surrounding was dark too.. the 2 of us quickened our pace as we walked pass the underpass.. luckily we found another route out.. if not really got to walk that super scary underpass..
we were so lucky that we reached the harbourfront centre on time for the Mac to open.. haha.. we had our breakfast there and then home sweet home..
