Merry Christmas!

I'm going to celebrate Christmas Eve at Eva's house then gonna celebrate Christmas with relatives on the actual day!

Which means at the time this post is posted I'll probably be sleeping at Eva's house now LOL!!! Or maybe still partying cuz it's going on 'till over midnight!

Anyway the tree in the picture is Eva's!

I don't really have anything else to say except to wish everyone a Merry Christmas!!! And a... happy new year. Meh. Not so happy for me because I have school...

Late for the THIRD MOTHERFUCKING TIME

Hello brb while I go bang my head against the wall



That's right. 17 December. And guess what's the date now?

21st!!!! I need to go and die!

But on a positive note, better late than never! I was late last year and posted on the 20th. This year, it's the 21st. Let's hope next year wouldn't be on the 22nd.

3 years ago, I was 11 years old. I decided to set up a blog in the hopes of becoming popular somehow. However I only had less than 10 people reading my blog.

3 years later, there is still less than 10 people reading my blog and is not popular at all. COME READ MY BLOG DAMMIT!

SIGH!!

BUT I WILL NOT GIVE UP! Because I like blogging and I have never actually thought about getting fame when I blog (LIES LIES) because I don't think I'm that amazing as a writer anyway (LIES LIES) so yeaaaaa

Hopefully next year will be a better year!!

On a random side note, AIN'T AYU HOT IN THAT PIC!? ;)

Also, I just realised that 3 years from now it will be dooms fucking day!!! Lol!

Ancient stuff: UIP + Remembrance Day

Old news but guess who is now a Unit Instructor?







Me!


I don't care what you say but I have a unit instructor shirt bitches!!

Though admittedly I performed the worst among all the other JWSS people who went for UIP... nonetheless I still passed out as one!





Ccb kena typo the Gheng again... @#^@^%$^!!

That's why the certificate is in such a miserable state because I crushed it in a fit of rage.

And the icing on the cake!



@#$^%*^%@$!!!!

Not only is the typo STILL there, I got a freaking E for Class Participation & Attitude!!! *dies*

And I DIDN'T PASS GOLD SYLLABUS!! WHAT IS THIS!!! I worked so hard to earn the gold badge but I didn't in the end! What a shame.

But I don't understand lor... my theory got a B+, and my practical exam got a B. B is obviously a pass already right?

But alas! I have to get 75% to pass! If they follow the school grade system also ah, means I still failed since I can only pass with an A. ARAGHFSGAAHDGH @%%$&#@

Adeline's overall grade was B, Shoba, Ella and Christel got A. AND I GOT C+! WHY!!!

Nonetheless I'm still a Unit Instructor :)



My favourite comment has to be the one at the bottom. Short and cliche!

Nonetheless I'm still a Unit Instructor :)

And a picture from Remembrance Day that took place many centuries ago at the Kranji War Memorial



All of us looking mad fugly

Nonetheless I'm still a Unit Instructor :)

Shall end off this post with this



This cat doesn't like YOU.

Nonetheless I'm still a Unit Instructor :)

You may proceed to slap me for my arrogance

C-C-C-Cambodia C-C-Cambodia

Mum mum mum mah! Hahahaha!!!

So as you all know I went to Phnom Penh, Cambodia from 23 Nov ~ 26 Nov last month for a CIP trip and it was super fun!!!

I took more than 558 photos but after all the editing I have 333 photos for this post! Haha what a number.

Throughout the 4 days we went to schools, an orphanage, shopping malls and a few other tourist attractions... anyway I think the pictures are going to be interesting because the places there are very different from Singapore.

Day 1

Had to wake up at 1am to get ready!!! Had to meet outside school at 3am to get on the bus to go to Changi Airport. Anyway I woke up at 1 then went to eat beef steak from the fridge early in the morning hahaha!!!

So anyway by the time I reached school most of the people were already there. And Mrs Tan was the latest lol!

After the bus arrived we put all our luggage in the bus' storage thingy and made our way to Changi Airport!!



Late at night with no cars at all

No la it just so happened that that shot didn't have cars in it ROFL.

Anyway most of the people were asleep except for me, Eva, Jasveen, and a few other people who just kept talking and talking and talking throughout the ride LOL.

Then we purposely pissed everyone off by suddenly clapping our hands when we passed by the signboard saying Changi Airport or something LOL!



We sat down while waiting for Miss Jessica Tan to arrive, along with the people from InnoTrek who organized the trip for us, namely Huda and Jones.

So while waiting some people sat down and some people took random photos!!! Like...


LOL!

We're going to China!!

So after around like, 20 minutes of waiting we went to check in our luggage + boxes containing the stuff that we're going to be giving the people in Cambodia.

Then Nazzer and I went to check in ours first and Huda checked in the boxes under our names!



Can you spot the fail?



FAIL.

Sigh. I think shit like this is going to stick with me throughout my life. I HAVE A SAD LIFE. That's why it's never a good idea to give your child a cantonese name in his full name. Ok fine, at least don't put a "Gheng".



Everybody only had 1 sticker but Nazzer and I had so many cuz of the boxes.



Everybody comparing what seat number they got



Christel and Hidayu :)



Te ne! I've always wanted to be part of these, you know? Like taking the picture with the banner HAHA.

Anyway it's called Mission : Khmer because you don't call the people in Cambodia Cambodians unlike Singaporeans and all that but they call themselves Khmers.

After that we went to have our breakfast even though I already had my beef steak HAHA. Eva, Christel, Cindy, Nazzer, Sri, Hidayu and I went to Jollibean. I only drank soya milk and shared their wonderful pancakes with the group.



In the plane with Sri and Shoba! Afterward Shoba and Eva switched places since Shoba wanted to sit with Shamira who was sitting beside Eva.

And...



Just can't help but remake the infamous picture from the Japan trip lol!!! I should make this a tradition every time I travel.

Sri was freaking out during the take off and was fascinated by the clouds outside. Reminds me so much of myself earlier this year. Hahaha.

So after sleeping on the plane for 1 and a half hours we finally reached Phnom Penh!!!



Taken from inside our tour bus haha





We were given breakfast AGAIN! Lol! It's some hot dog bun thing with ketchup and mayonnaise on top. Was quite skeptical about the taste but turns out to be quite nice. Though it is never a good idea to put ketchup on top of bread!



They also gave us custard cakes but I put mine in the bag and only ate it back in the hotel.

Anyway we were going to head to the government school immediately which was a 30-45 minutes ride, so here are some pictures of the streets of Cambodia I took for you all to see






Hehe



Eva say not so bad leh like Malaysia. Of course that's not up to me to judge since I've never really been to Malaysia myself.



Map of Cambodia in the bus



Tuk tuk!







Everybody starting to doze off





Gas station!



BOOMZ HAHA







ROFLMAO! OK Condom! Saw these everywhere.







ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ



A failed attempt at taking a picture of a stray dog.



Outside the government school!

By the way I freaking saw cows when the bus was near the school!!! They are GIGANTIC!!! I saw one sitting down very near the bus and I thought it was some kind of statue until I saw it blink!!!

Sorry sua ku moment people first time see real cow ma.



Walking on their "corridors"



Anyway after that we all changed into our traditional costumes in ulu rooms. Boys one room girls one room.

Then we did our dance which was a fusion of Indian, Malay and Chinese dance which we rehearsed a lot for and played games with them... they are sibei pro!!! Teach them one time they play like crazy pro people!

We taught them how to play chapteh, dog and bone and all your usual simple games. My group enjoyed playing the chapteh A LOT.



Inside a classroom with the kids!

Anyway there are a lot of classrooms but from what I heard they only have 27/28 teachers and they only get paid 45 fucking dollars! Monthly!

Anyway we gave them the chaptehs and the balls for them to play with.


Hahaha

Anyway after that we boarded the bus to go have lunch...


HAHA random shot

Guess where we had our lunch?



KFC!



It was VERY empty inside, around like 3-4 people inside when we went. I guess it makes sense since the people there are quite poor and can't afford KFC. Only the tourists came.



Tables have bottles of tomato and chilli sauce of their own.



Coke!



Can you guess what this is? Whipped potato? Wrong! It's only the gravy LOL!





Fries



Main course!!! Surprising isn't it!? Honestly didn't expect rice with the tomatoes and cucumbers at all! (and the plates too)





Shamira cares too much about food that she doesn't want to look into the camera haha!! Kidding.

Just when you thought it was all - while eating they suddenly served us out of nowhere...



POTATO SOUP!

Omg! I asked my mum one day if there were places in Singapore that actually sell potato soup then can da pao when I want to. She said no. But now I know that Cambodia got!!! HAHA

Aiyo typing about KFC is making me crave for some now lol.

Speaking of KFC, last year when our school's Red Cross unit went to Siem Reap (also in Cambodia), Nandhini called her mother in Singapore and asked what she was doing.

Then her mother said that her entire family was eating KFC!!! HAHAHA!! Without her! So poor thing right? Well now we are eating KFC in Phnom Penh with potato soup bitchessss



Done! Yum.

After that we went to check into our hotel rooms for some relaxing time!! Our hotel was initially Town View Hotel (Goodness I almost typed Farm view hotel) but don't know why suddenly Pacific Hotel.

Nazzer and I got Room 501 which was on the 5th floor, the top floor and we shared the same floor as Huda & Jones and Eva, Christel & Cindy!

Yea, their hotels are all relatively small compared to those in Singapore right? I think Town View Hotel only got 3-4 stories.

The corner rooms are apparently the bigger ones (x01 / x11) cuz I saw Huda & Jones' room (504) and it was bloody small compared to ours and ECC's!! (Eva Christel Cindy's)


Comfy


Happy! There my bed



Spaciousness!! Can you believe it's only a 3-star hotel? Got to be kidding man.



TV that has channels like HBO, Star World, Star Movies and what not. 3 stars my ass!



Anyway we went to bathe and shit and do all our stuff first because we had like around 2 hours of rest time lol



Toilet space however paled in comparison to the other bigger rooms (x11s) like ECC's



Bathtub in ulu corner somemore... kena murdered there people also don't know



All the cash I brought to Cambodia!! Supposed to bring more but I figured I wouldn't spend so much anyway.

Anyway the people there use US$!! Everything is charged in USD! But they don't use the US coins, they also got their own currency called Riel.

But 1USD = 4100 Riels! Fucking crazy! The currency is so insignificant that you can't exchange it in Singapore.



Sexy pose while watching TV



Nazzer's bed

Speaking of curtains, somebody's room (I think Fazurah's) had curtains, but when they pulled open the curtains they got cheated because there weren't any windows but just a wall there!! HAHAHAH!!!

Poor them had no windows in the room at all



Eerie corridor



Balcony just outside our room

Anyway Huda & Jones came to visit our room and they were totally jealous of our room lol!!! Then after that Jones would keep calling our room "Honeymoon Suite".

Then she still ask us for extra pillow since our room so big lolol.

After our relaxing time we went down to go shopping!!



We went to the mall and bought ice cream! LOL!



Only US$1 each!! Quite cheap leh! And quite nice also.



My oreo flavor one.

After that we walked around looking at stuff like fake goods and all that lol! A lot of people bought sunglasses! Which was for no reason the craze throughout this trip but I didn't buy any since I already have. I didn't bring though!

Then we stopped by this shoe shop and I bought a pair of shoes!!! And I am very proud to say that it is a FAKE pair of Dolce & Gabanna shoes!!! US$20 only!



Nice okay!

Christel & Eva bought fake Converse sneakers at US$13 haha.

Just a little note that throughout the entire trip EVERYWHERE, literally EVERYWHERE we went sold fake goods!

All your fake Chanel, LV, Coach, and whatnot everywhere like nobody's business.



All our shopping for the dayyyy

After that we went to this random place that has an overview of the King's Palace



With his portrait displayed outside!!! Fucking scary!







And then suddenly don't know what happen but the King's portrait lighted up with a scary yellow color:



Honestly it looks like *touch wood* a funeral picture and the yellow lighting made it worse because it reminds me of the carnations they would put around the picture frame. Choy!



With very enthusiastic kids!!! See camera only get so excited want to take picture. Their parents got pretty pissed though from the look of their faces then lol.




Nice sky







The yellow river or something





Cute dog!! Unfortunately right after I took that photo it got a seizure and got pissed with me. Then it started chasing me around like crazy. Totally regretted taking the photo HAHAHA

After that we boarded the bus to go for dinner! Our tour guide, Verak still bluff us say we going back KFC LOL!

Guess where we went for dinner!



Tada! Restaurant that sells Singapore food! Unexpected.



Tissue and ashtray lol!



Christel camwhoring with my camera





Chinese tea





Briyani for dinner!! Very nice. Especially the curry :3 The boss of the place is Singaporean!

Honestly I don't understand why of all places Singaporeans would want to set up a business in a third world country lor.

After that Verak was like lying to us again saying our bus went away and we had to walk back to the hotel on our own.

Then Christel yelled at him, "Don't cheat our feelings again!!!" LOLOLOLOLOL!!!

So we went back to the hotel, bathed, watched TV then went to sleep... oh we were watching Mrs World on Star World I think! Then I kept calling ECC's hotel room phone to talk about it lol!!!

Mrs World 2008's arms are so flabby it caught my attention when she was doing the classic beauty pageant wave. Anyway Mrs Russia won the 2009 title.

Day 2

Good Morning! We woke up at around 7am, and went down for our breakfast at 8.15am together with ECC.





Yummy breakfast buffet consisting of porridge, noodles, omelette, sausages (cut into a very cute shape but never take picture then!) and watermelons. With orange juice.

The egg and sausages were VERY nice and the porridge tasted very weird but we all just passed it off as mushrooms.

Until we found this in Christel's bowl of porridge...



TE NE! BIRD HEAD!!!

Ok fine it MIGHT be a chicken's but I still think it's a bird's and we've been eating bird meat. ARGH.

Anyway after that we went to an orphanage!





Could only take pictures outside cuz pictures weren't allowed inside the orphanage. Anyway we cleaned the place first then after that we went to play with the babies with their new toys that we brought!

All the babies were so cute!!! We even picked babies and called them ours. HAHA. My babies were a pair of twins! Or so I think because they both looked alike. And THEY BOTH LOOKED LIKE BRITNEY SPEARS!!!

So I kept calling them Britney Spears blue and Britney Spears grey cuz one was wearing a blue shirt and the other was wearing a grey shirt.

The babies will suddenly jump and lie down on your lap one! So cute! Then blue Britney fell asleep after that.

However grey Britney traumatised me up till this day because he shat on his own pants. Not only did he shit his own pants, I didn't know he did.

So he was standing on the cot, trying to reach for something far from the cabinet near the cot so I was scared he would fall down la so I carried him.

But the moment I carried him I felt his butt wet wet one!!! I freaked out and faster put him down even though he wouldn't stop clinging onto me. Then it smelt like shit so I faster go and wash my hand!!!

After that experience I decided I wanted to disown that Britney and not touch him anymore. Hahaha I'm so bad right!!

After many nightmares in that place (there was another incident which I shall not say nor will I EVER say) that only the people who went know about. I will not say!! It was THAT traumatising.

From what I heard one of the babies also peed on Mrs Tan. I'm not sure if it's true though cuz I didn't see it lol.

After that we went to the national monument to take pictures before lunch



Snap snap snap









Flag of Cambodia with the Angkorwat which is sadly in Siem Reap!

And then they suddenly decided to have a jump shot:



Failed attempt #1



Failed attempt #2



Failed attempt #3 don't know jumping or running.

After that I gave up and decided not to take anymore LOL



Mrs Tan & Miss Tan LOL!



Moderate success with Miss Tan in an awkward pose LOL

After that when boarding the bus there was this uncle outside selling sunglasses but we all ignored him anyway.

Then when we alighted at the place we were going to have lunch at the uncle was fucking there!!! THE VERY SAME UNCLE! Fucking scary he totally stalked us by teleporting there!

Best part is after lunch HE'S STILL STANDING THERE.







Hi Jasveen







Fazurah having fun with her hand-made camera.



Cheers!



Acting high class fail LOL



HAHA





Trying not to laugh!!



Everyone looking at the beverages menu in which I ordered a whole fresh coconut! So did Eva, Christel and Nazzer as well as some other people.


Lol



Tada! This is apparently Cambodian Cuisine and it's quite nice. Rice with chicken satay-ish thing, and spicy fish which was damn nice.

The brown thing was beans but I hate beans to death so I didn't touch it.



Big ass coconut!! Sadly it wasn't chilled.



So cute!!! Cute but in such an ugly color. Sigh



Neh neh!!! HAHAHAH! Had to mosaic my face because I look damn fugly in this.



After lunch we went to another shopping mall to do shopping. To be precise, grocery shopping haha!!!

Nazzer and I bought 2 bowls of instant noodles (mine), 2 bottles of Coke, pack of 6 cans of Coke light, many packs of potato chips and I think that's all.

The noodles had real meat inside!! US$1.45 per bowl! One bottle of Coke US$0.60, the pack of 6 cans US$2.80 then I dunno the rest of the price. Around the same as Singapore la hor.



We bought the ice cream again! Same franchise somemore!! Then we found out that they call it "Luck Cream" HAHAHAH TACKY OR WHAT. Anyway mine was Coffee flavor this time.



Looking damn weird here. Wearing 1 of Nazzer's 4 sunglasses he bought. Crazy lor. One for himself, one for his dad, one for his sis and the other I think for his mum.

After that we went to the King's Palace!



Nice entrance



Hi





Sexay!



Shining with royal goodness



Cute tree! The shape also somewhat like Christmas tree somemore.



Can you spot the lizard??







Me, Mrs Tan and Shamira haha



Christel and I!









(Scary looking) four faced Buddha



Bird bird!



We went inside this place where the flooring was made of real silver! Or at least that was what we were told la might be metal but the tour guide can't possibly lie to us right?

So we were stepping on real silver! Ok la better if it's gold right but still?



I almost held onto one of the statues' head when on the staircase roflmao!



Playing weird instruments lol!



Sri being damn blur



Fazurah also



Boo!



Jasveen



Me



Us! Lol



Elephant

Btw do you know the King is single? And he's 57 years old? Mrs Tan and I were like speculating that maybe he is *ahem* you know?

After that we went back to the hotel for some relaxing time for about 1 hour before we go back down for dinner! Then Eva, Christel and I planned to wear our new *fake* shoes haha



They swap shoes some more!



Our new fake shoes



On the way to same Singapore restaurant place for dinner







Yay!





Rofl



Delicious lontong soup with vegetables



Cheers!



Awesome dinner



So awesome that the stray cat wants some too!



Awww don't know why people were so scared of this cutie. ESPECIALLY CINDY. Actually everybody was panicking for no reason then I faster got up and snapped pictures of the cat haha!!!



Toilet sign at the restaurant bar!! (Only toilet in the whole place lol) Funny or what!



Fruits! I was the one eating most of it cuz my half of the table went off to somewhere else zz



Then everybody went to find meows at the swimming pool outside the restaurant





Haha



with Renuga



One of the typical lame hey-let's-use-our-fingers-to-form-a-star photos haha

After dinner we went to a mini mart nearby to do last minute snacks shopping haha







Mmmm Iiizz canzz hazzz wineeeeeeee *hick*





Our tour bus which I never took a picture of until then



Can totally see what's going on in my nose!!



Shoes



Chandra! Lol!





Sweets



The view from my room's balcony! Only the "Honeymoon Suites" have balconies haha but we kept ours closed & locked in case nasty flies get in.

After that we gathered all our food and drinks to Renuga's room (211) to partay!!!



Only one picture because it's a private affair ;) Hahahahahahahaha

We went back to our rooms at around 11:55PM I think then watched Letterman on Star World before sleeping!



;)

Day 3

Good Morning!



Breakfast with the awesome and cute sausages like I mentioned!!! They finished quite fast so I'm not taking any chances one shot take all!! Hahaha!!





Save the best for last



Haha!



Soup with potato and vegetables.. fortunately no bird head!



Finished!



Camwhoring with our fans which were supposed to be part of our cultural dance hahaha







Haha





After breakfast we boarded the bus to go to the Killing Fields! It's like this historical place where people got killed like crazy over there



Surprise! Probably set up by some crazy Singaporean again.













Coke



Motorcycles!



Hehe lao ah ma



Sugarcane!



Sugarcane again... sadly roadside stalls like these are unhygienic later lao sai :(



Don't you think this sign is very funny? It looks like it's a sign for a vet clinic or something but nooo it's a sign of a shop selling food for the animals lol

Ok la I know it wouldn't make sense if it's a vet clinic's sign because there's a fish there but still?







Coconuts





Right after this photo was taken the black dog fucked the white dog.





Cows from very far away!!! Mooo



And we're here!





Oh it's such a beautiful day!





Chickens! I was like, the only one fascinated by the chickens at the place hahaha I think I pissed off Huda along the way with the chicken fascination



Tall building! Can you guess what's being stored in here?





Dead people skulls!!! And these are real ones!! Not your fake ones okay!



Scary shit







Crazy spider of all places want to spin web there... HAHA



Sucks to be them





No touch!!!



:D



:D :D



Ok I tried to be respectful to the dead and not smile so much...



But I still smile anyway!!!



Dirty clothes never wash for 21 years and counting!







Everywhere we were stepping on used to be burial grounds. Scary or what?



PLENTY of these mass graves everywhere.



Another one



Looks like someone forgot his/her clothes! Ok I shouldn't be cracking jokes because THAT'S SCARY. Dead people clothes you know. Or so I think.



Mass graves x5000



Avoid the moan of victims ;) ;) ;)



Scary Chinese grave in the middle of nowhere.





Then after that we went to see the special mass graves complete with borders around the perimeter





Yep.



More chickens!



One of the more scary mass graves because..



Te ne! I suspect the 166 people's heads were all at the building just now.

Speaking of which, Eva dunno why somehow went to smell one of the skulls and kept gagging later on.



The biggest mass grave and also the creepiest one, because...



THERE'S SOME RANDOM POOL OF GREEN WATER THERE!!!



IT WAS EVEN FUCKING MOVING!!! Obviously there won't be fishes inside right?

Scary or WHAT? Also there was absolutely NO rain for the past 3 days we were there. It's fucking green! Argh





They used the tree branches to slit the throats of the victims.

In fact, Verak said that the victims then even had a CHOICE whether they wanted to die immediately or die a slow, painful death. What the fuck?

I think I'd rather die immediately. "Just kill me already!"

They even like, smash babies onto the trunk or something. Must be one hell of a tree.



Yay hahaha



Have fun squinting your eyes reading that





Buried alive somemore! Wth?



Weapons used to execute the victims. I know right?



We were like blocking the passageway when taking this (plus we had like around 8 cameras to take this picture lol!) then all the tourists were staring at us haha.





With Verak haha

When leaving the place Chandra said that Singapore should have a historical place like this. Um, NO. If that happens I will immediately migrate off! LOL!!! It will be VERY freaky and scary.

After going there we went to the RUSSIAN MARKET! If you've watched amazing race you should know what I'm talking about.

The best part about the place is you can bargain with the people haha!



Schoolkids going home from school



Sometimes I cannot understand why people must listen to their music even when the trip is less than 15 minutes



Chickens! Dead AND Alive ones. Looks so cruel right?



I pity the driver because the van must be stinking like mad with the smell of ginger everywhere.

Mrs Tan heard and asked "What if your parents sell ginger?"

I replied "I'll go jump off a building" HAHAHAHAHA

Not that I don't like ginger (I love them in fact) but meh. Not good money-makers anyway.



The entrance with somebody selling hammocks there



Inside the market - only took 1 picture because the place very crowded later kena stolen also don't know!

Anyway I bought 2 magnets for US$1 each (US$1 only don't need bargain la hor) and from the same stall I also bought...





WOODEN MAHJONG SET!!!


So with this I have 4 variations of Mahjong sets in my room already lol!

It was initially US$35. Honestly when I heard the price I immediately gasped and said "Klai!" which is expensive in Khmer haha!!

In the end I bargain like siao all the way to US$23!! I'm totally a skilled bargainer!

But the woman who sold us the stuff was VERY kind and her English was actually quite good! She said she give discounts to students like us haha.

At first I saw the Mahjong set (it was open) and it was like, messy. So I asked if there was a brand new one and she said she brought it out that morning only LOL!

She still say inside got 152 tiles that's why so messy like that! After buying our stuff she still tell us to study hard lor... so nice right?

Then I went to another place and bought 2 candle sets, one blue and one pink for sister and mother. Forgot to take picture though lol.

Initially I only wanted to buy the pink one, then it was US$6. I bargain for US$4, the person told me she will charge me US$4 each if I buy 2 lol. So I did la.

But then I gave her US$10, and she gave me US$6 back!! I put on a straight face but secretly I was like damn happy LOL!! Cuz I thought I clinched a great deal!

Sadly after walking for 2 minutes she chased me out of nowhere and said she counted wrongly, ask me to give back US$4. Sigh! Should have gone somewhere further. I lied and said I didn't notice. Haha!



Tada. Looks so antique. One of my happier buys during this trip because I'm such an avid mahjong fan haha



All the shopping done there. Wrapped very professionally indeed.

So after that we all went back to the same Singapore place to have lunch..



Warm chinese tea that looks like beer haha. Some of us including me after that asked for iced water instead.



Me & Shamira~



Jasveen hahaha



I will never stop being jealous of her perfect teeth!



With Hidayu... look at Mrs Tan's classic expression behind!! LOL oops.



Delicious chicken murtabak! Some had sardine one... but I think the chicken still tastes better.





Ice cream!! I got coconut flavored one. Other people were like comparing flavors then exchange here exchange there, lol.

I ended up eating 3 of those because they all don't want the extra ones... don't want I eat lor!

So after lunch we went to an NGO school, which is a Non-Government Organization school.

It's like a boarding school there, and everything is built by THEMSELVES. No funding from government whatsoever. They have to rely on donations for the funding.



Dog outside the entrance



Students having taekwondo lessons... haha. The outfit has the flag of Korea on it so I assume it's donated by the people of Korea.



Their dorms..





Where they hang their laundry..



Can you guess what is this?



Shower area for the boys! The girls also have but somewhere else.



Big ass red ants on the ground



This is their cooking area believe it or not!

Also the students there are around 16-18 years old if I remember correctly. They are all school drop outs that are like, you know, want to have a second chance in life blah blah blah

It's also a must to speak English at all times over there!

After that we had to change into our traditional clothes again, dance our cultural dance, then play games with them.

During the dance we forgot all about the fans we were supposed to incorporate in the dance!! LOL!



Our awesome taekwondo group. We taught them the banana dance and it turns out they also have their version of the banana dance! Which is totally hilarious.



Group photo again!



Sending us off haha. Everybody there were so friendly!



With Shoba, my part-time girlfriend of Day 3!!! Hahaha!! Nazzer's part-time girlfriend was Renuga but he was so unfaithful that Renuga can't be bothered about him in the end haha!!





Haha



Shamira showing some real attitude there HAHA

After that we went back to the hotel for some relaxing time before dinner at the hotel...

I think the plan was to go back to the Singapore place again for dinner but Sri and Eva fell sick so I guess it's more convenient if we have dinner there.







Dinner buffet! Rice with fried chicken pieces, mini prawn fritters, stir fried cauliflower with tofu and sweet & sour fish! With potato soup!

Some of us including me loved the prawns so much we immediately went to grab more everytime they top up the prawns lol!!! Must enjoy our last dinner in Cambodia :(

After that we went back to the hotel room... no parties allowed but it's okay! Nazzer and I partied by ourselves in the room lol! We still haven't finish most of the coke.

So anyway I decided I wanted to try the instant noodles I bought:



With real meat! That's why I bought it in the first place!

But then unfortunately we realised that even though there was a kettle in the room, it has a 3-pin plug and all the plugs in the fucking hotel room were 2-pin only!!!

I know right? So meaningless to put there when you need an adaptor anyway!

So in the end we called room service for hot water... hahaha.

When the lady knocked on the door I prepared US$1 and hid it behind me. When she passed me the thermal flask I asked "Do you want a tip???" HAHAHA

She replied very happily "Yes yes!" and I happily gave her the US$1 hahaha. Sometimes it feels good to do nice things. Anyway even if she said no I would also give her LOL.



Pouch containing all the meaty goodness



Wa!!

So after eating we watched TV before sleeping our last night at the hotel :(

Day 4


Good Morning!



Final moments with the hotel room.. sad :(



OMG! Dog out of nowhere OUTSIDE the balcony perimeter! We quickly went into the elevator before seeing anything tragic happen.





Breakfast with my favourite eggs and sausages again... haha! And they also had the same fried chicken from last night's dinner.

We all put our luggage in the bus and boarded the bus to the airport!



:P



Last picture with our tour guide...



Random picture of a blue phone lol!



Christel drinking my US$3.10 coffee



Amazing or what! The ice cream won't fall off! The cup even states that it is served upside down else not it's free lol.

And on a random side note, what do you get when you remove the E on Renuga's top?



Mmm

LOL! UGLY OR NOT?

Taken at home one lor when I was like, Primary 6. I even photoshopped away the thousands of pimples on my face that time.

Anyway the reason why I took this photo was because we were saying how our passport photos look like funeral photos!!!

Definitely not ideal to use if I die now because this photo alone will probably kill a few more people.



Eva being very elegant here





And we're back in Singapore!!! Oh what joy!

Hidayu so cute lor in the plane arrive that time she said so loudly "I missed you Singapore did you miss me?" HAHA!



Happy~!



Stuck to the walls

Anyway after that we took the bus back to school... so sad! I miss the stuff we did in Cambodia even as I'm typing this haha. Oh well. All good things must come to an end after all.



Singapore Flyer



And this never fails to amuse me all the time! LOL

OK so this is the end of my Cambodia post. Hope you all enjoyed reading it!!

Wow I totally took 6 days to type finish this post lol! Mainly due to the fact that I procrastinate like crazy.

I am back!

I am back from Cambodia as well as the Unit Instructor's Programme... just a few more days until I pass out as a unit intstructor! (Not guaranteed though, I may fail the programme in the end lol)

Anyway just to update you guys that I will be working on my Cambodia trip post now! Going to start editing the photos and if possible I'm going to try to finish everything up by the 5th! Aren't you glad I'm not procrastinating like mad unlike the Japan trip post lol.

I may not be blogging about the UIP camp anyway since it's really nothing much... I may do up a short post though.

Okay I shall stop here bye!!!

Bye bye!

Bye bye! I'm going to die! Hahahahahahaha just kidding.

By the time this post is up at this time I will be in the bus with other Red Cross mates to Changi Airport!!!

Because we're going to
Phnom Penh, Cambodia!

I will be there until Thursday... I will be bringing my camera so I will surely take some pictures over there and blog about it!

I won't be bringing my phone because it's useless to bring it there, because there are no phone networks there at all! Can't really expect much from a third world country right?

Anyway...

Bye!!!

I can haz Harry Potter bookz

Yay!!! I finally got my Harry Potter hardback box set!!!



Aiya ok la actually I got it since many weeks ago but nobody knew anyway... and I feel guilty for not updating for you 1-2 people left who reads my blog hahaha.



Costs $300+ btw. Expensive shit, but worth it since everybody say that the books are amazing. I'm planning to finish reading all 7 books before the Deathly Hallows film comes out even though I'm feeling apprehensive about achieving that...

And I don't think I'll be starting during December since I still have my Madonna books to finish so *shrugs*

Anyway I've been caught up A LOT with CCA and I only recently came back from my Red Cross annual camp which was from the 14th to the 16th.

I will also go overseas this coming Monday for the Red Cross Cambodia trip where we'll be going to Phnom Penh to go to an orphanage, government school and whatnot.

I'll be there until the 26th, in which after that I only have the rest of the 26th and 27th before going for my Unit Instructor Program 3D2N camp (camp again!) on the 28th.

I doubt I'll be posting a lot of pictures from the Cambodia trip since we'll be helping out and all that without much time for pictures but I'll try to snap some!

I'm still not sure whether or not to blog about the Red Cross camp because honestly it was mostly shitty experiences (IN MY OPINION - Important phrase to say) BUT it still has some good things here and there about it...

So I'm afraid by blogging about it I MAY accidentally piss some people off here and there so I don't think I'll be posting about it.

Unless you 1-2 people left reading my blog want me to then I may consider~

Alright some stuff I've bought during the past few weeks I feel like blogging about:

Mariah Carey's latest album + 3CD box set and Madonna's Confessions On A Dance Floor special edition!!!

Heart pain because I spent $110+ on all the stuff!!! Quite worth it though. I've been eyeing the Madonna item for 1 year + now but didn't have the money to buy it in HMV which was then $77 and is now long gone from the shelves.

I bought it from Gramophone for only $60+ so the wait was worth it anyway!

The MC box set itself cost me around $30 with the new album at $21.



Sooo it comes with 3 of her first albums from the ISLAND record label + a supposedly collectible poster. For $30 quite worth it leh.

Though when I bought it the E=MC2 casing's corner fucking chipped off! But you can't see it here because I replaced 2 albums with the special digipak editions that I bought separately last year.


And therefore I shall end off this post with this yummy picture of my food from weeks and weeks ago:



:D

Results!!!!

I've gotten back my results!!! Actually, since a long time ago. Both academic results and streaming results in which the latter was only announced 2 days ago!!!

Anyway my scanner spoil already so I only took a picture of the results slip. I can type it out but I don't feel like it LMAO. And pictures are better. I dunno, kinda helps the credibility along the way LOL.



Tada!!! This is the slip that matters amongst all the other slips! Unless you want to know my PE grade. Which I got a D7 for but I don't give a shit.

I'm actually very surprised!!! Especially how I passed History! Or in that case, passed all my subjects!!! More surprised when I knew I got 2nd in class. And 37 in the level.

And check out the streaming results!!!

GUESS WHO GOT INTO THE CLASS HE WANTED???



And to bring showing off shamelessly even further to a whole new level:


Complete with fail cropping!

:)
*is pleased*

Though it's quite unfortunate that I'm going to be the last register number in the class. I've never been last before in my whole life!!!!

And another unfortunate thing is how everybody don't seem to give a shit whether I'm their new classmate or not.

Because they are like "ZOMG (name), (name), and (name) ARE IN THE SAME CLASS AS ME!!! YAY!!!" and then I'm not in the exclusivity of all this :( How depressing right? Especially for an attention whore like me. Teehee.

Anyway some pictures during the parent-teacher meeting where I'm supposed to be helping out...



Everybody rummaging through the stack of report books to see their results lol! I helped them slot in their CCA slips btw.



Everyone busy sorting out exam scripts while I am there SKIVING taking a picture of them hahaahaha!!!



Hi







Miss Teo's evil plan to set up a slideshow showing all the unglam pics she took of us for the parents to see!!!



And this is my slide, so unglam that I mosaic-ed it for your well-being!



But Miss Teo was nice to treat us to puffs and cakes.



Anyway everything ended at like, 7.30pm or so if I remember correctly. It's quite sad that we aren't classmates anymore!

But oh well, all good things must come to an end anyway.

I shall end off this post with our class photos!!!





TOTALLY loving the cheap and tacky photoshop effects



Bye :)

Shopping again.

I am so happy yet so disappointed!

Happy because I am finally going shopping again.

Disappointed because I couldn't find the stuff that I wanted. FML.

SO IRRITATING!!! Went to Topman and everything suddenly became long sleeved!!! And I think it's because they are selling the fall/winter collection. Which is very funny because Singapore doesn't have the 4 seasons!

And I think by doing that nobody is going to buy because Singapore is just too fucking hot! Poor marketing skills.

But of course I'm just saying all this just to comfort myself *runs to hide in corner and cry*

ANYWAY I did manage to find a short sleeve one in NET nonetheless. Could have bought more if most of the shirts I found weren't like old man wear one...

Picture of all my shopping today:



I find it very sad that I bought so little things when this could be my only chance of shopping in November.

And that's because I am so darn fucking busy this November because of CCA. FML again.

Anyway Marion and I have been planning to get sunglasses for a while now and we did!!! We bought them at this place called Rubi Shoes for $10. Initially wanted to get yesterday in Jurong Point but alas! It rained!

I wanted to get like those dark dark dark like siao kind but don't have. Sad. But the ones I got aren't so bad either. Marion's has a white frame and mine is black.



I also forgot to point out that Eva is also SOMEHOW "celebrating" her birthday with us by going shopping with us LOL. So Marion and I surprised her by giving her a present!



I know right? Fabulous packaging.

I got her Koda Kumi's Ai no Uta and Marion gave her a notebook.

After that at around 12 we had lunch at Fish & Co. ...it's been like shitassed long since I've last been there.

Pictures!









Marion desperately trying to be modelesque



Ohai Eva



"See what see? See my big assed ring from Diva!"



Another failed desperate shot from Marion. HAHAHHAHHA I can haz ringz



Soup of the day / seafood chowder. So good that I jizzed my pants!!! Not!



Marion's FUCKING NICE PHILADELPHIA FISH & CHIPS

Eva ate fish & chips too but is not the same one. Hers cheaper. LOL. But still nice either way.



My silver cod with miso sauce. Ok ok only. Regret not buying fish & chips because it's fucking nice!! And Marion's even had CHEESE IN IT I FUCKING LOVE CHEESE.







Hahahahahaha





We are le coolz shitz







Boo!



Anyway we went to Plaza Singapura to go to Times Bookstore and I bought these 2 books that cost me $51 or so-



Madonna - An Intimate Biography and Like An Icon.

Marion also bought a Coco Chanel biography.

I got cheated. When we went to HMV, they were selling Like An Icon.

AT 2 FOR $20.
The book at Times cost $23.33

FML AGAIN!!!!

Anyway Sembawang Music at Plaza Sing was having this closing down sales and it was FUCKING CROWDED OKAY! I wanted to go in and find some stuff to buy but couldn't because I was suffocating in there! It was THAT crowded! Grrr

So after not being able to get what I wanted to buy and being cheated, I guess this shopping trip wasn't pleasant after all. What more to add to the fire than there being CCA tomorrow.

FML once again.


Goodnight everybody!
