Short Getaway with love one - Batam Indonesia

Here we go our weekend @ Batam!
Purchase coupon from deal@sg for 38sgd per pax (excluding fee to pay at Harbourfront and Batam Ferry Terminal which 28 per pax)
Due to public holiday on that day (Deepavali) causing super jam at Harbourfront Ferry Terminal.
Before this, I still not managed to get the hotel I booked due to full house. After discussing with the person in charged, finally I still able to go on the same date, but change from Harmoni One hotel to Gideon Hotel.
Well, it's fine. =)

We depart from AMK at 6.30am cause we are advised to be there 1.5 hours before departure time.

Here we go!

Wearing new outer wear from Lyramin during their promotion which is extremely cheap!

The ferry we took was Pacific Ferry, high class and comfortable seat :)
Our ferry was 8.45am. It's took around 30-40mins from Harbourfront Ferry Terminal to Sekupang (Batam Ferry Terminal)

We arrive Sekupang at 9.30am Singapore time, 8.30am Indo time. But still have to queue at the custom. Crowded!

Once we out from Sekupang custom, there are lots of tour guide waiting outside holding a paper name list.
I found our tour guide, is a Indonesia Chinese girl name Yessi. She is pretty and nice person. There are around 15 peoples in a tour, only me and my bf are chinese and due to this reason, we are closer to the pretty tour guide. =)

We heading to our first stop in our day trip list - Hershey Chocolate retail shop and Bird nest retail shop. We did get anything cause I still have lotsaa chocolate in my food box! #fatdieme
After that we move to Polo Ralph shop which she guarantee their Polo Ralph are ORIGINAL! Then, i got one Polo T for myself. It cost me 58sgd (abit heart pain afterward wuwu)
It's really look nice by the way ^^

Next we went to Batam famous layer cake. We bought 2 flavour - Original and Pandan.
Actually it's not really cheap! 25sgd for Ori 28 for Pandan.
Hmmm once in a while, ok laahh. HEHE

Lunch TIME!

We had our lunch at Hong Kong Seafood Restaurant! Sounds nice right???
Disappointed at first sight. Is just a simple buffet! Don't ever expect to get nice foods since you are paying for that little amount of money. *slap slap*

Very simple lunch but... I'm full like a pig! (I used to say this to him because he is my PIG) HEHE

Activities after lunch is normal so not to mention.

Lastly, we went to Batam City Square to shopping!!
hmm not shopping for cloths, but their groceries. Sound stupid huh? But their groceries are so so cheap!
Start with beer, big can not even 3sgd. Their cookies, mee, toothpaste, shampoo, almost everything are cheap after the conversion. Omg I really wish to SAPU many things!

Another thing is their Manicure and Pedicure! Super cheap!
For Medicure it cost around 75000Rupiah which is 8.33sgd  (I change 1sgd=9000Rupiah)
For Pedicure it cost 100000Rupiah which only 11.11sgd!

Sad sad sad! I went for the shop for 3 times, always full house!
So next time if I visit Batam again, I will definitely go for their medi and pedi cure! Must...

We had this Lontong Sayur as our high tea. It taste like Kelantan Laksa Paste. It's make me homesick, I miss my hometown foods so badly.

Okayyy is time to check in! It's 5.30pm.

Nice room make you feel worth for the paid.

Nice room right?

We having our dinner at big hawker stall in infront from our hotel. Lots of foods!
Our dinner which cost 22sgd.

The big bowl was Asam Fish. It's Super big bowl. one vege and one chicky.


The next day, we took taxi back to Sekupang Ferry Terminal by ourselves. Scare bf cannot catch his flight at 8pm.

It's just a short trip with him, yet enjoyed! I'm Fully in charge in this trip!
*Serve him like a King*

Some photos to share!

Ignite the flame in your heart, to be confident!

love,  our dream comes true! No more LDR 

Diet always fail. I need slimmer leg T^T

Singapore Adventure Cove Water Theme Park

Bellooo~ Last Saturday I went to Adventure Cove with my Sg buddies.
Most of us were sick days before, but still plan never changed! ^^
We meet up at Harbourfront Station - vivocity and had our breaky before heading to Sentosa.
I'm sorry I'm late for...hmm.. 10 mins? :x

We had our breakfast at noodles shop name as EAT. We will never try if we didn't grab the promotion from Groupon. Since I'm groupon regular customer and subscribed for latest promotion, I saw 1 dollar noodles and decided to get it. Hmm, no comment for the foods. =.= (no comment means no more next time)

After we had our breakfast, we start heading into Sentosa. It's my fourth time enter Sentosa Island in this one year and 3 months working in Sing. Usually I took bus - 2 dollar for two ways. This time I took monorial -4 dollars for two ways. Bus is much cheaper. Anyway, I excited to splash waterrrrrrr! :D

We got our tickets from one of our friend- kelvin, which cost 27sgd per pax which is cheaper than outside market price.

The tickets are so cute!

Photo when we are rest for our lunch due to raining

photo everywhere :P

We had our lunch at the only restaurant. It was like IKEA system which u have to Q-ing up with own tray/trolley then grab foods that you wanted. There are only few courses of foods such as Spaghetti Bolognese with grill chicken, fish and chips, sausages set with mashed potato which cost the same at 13.90sgd.

Foods included one cold drinks. Additional 50 cents for coffee or hot drinks. There are few Ala cart like beef meatballs and chicken wings too.

Our Lunch!

We got no waterproof camera so only have photos when we are 'dry'.

There are few games that consider nice! The Spiral washout is not as fast as whirlpool washout.

Spiral washout

Whirlpool washout

My first tried was this spiral washout with my friend- Edward. Others friend play the whirlpool. All of them enjoyed with it, only me and Ed feel so sad because it's normal for the spiral.







Ed and I decided to play Whirlpool for the second time! We fool with others said spiral was EXCITED TOO! :P
No regret, Whirlpool WAS AWESOME!
I dunno when I drop into the hole in backward. So excited. HAHA

(Photos taken from website)




We had diving sessions too.

Another games that impressed me was the 3.5m deep pool - Jump into water
It's like Running Man games where standing on top then jump into the water. I wish to try but I dare not. Very first concern was, I DUNNO HOW TO SWIM!
I always imagine how scary when my legs doesn't step on the ground. Owh it's scary!
I was pushed by those guys to have a try. My can't even take one more step when I was standing on top.
Sorry I am scaredy cat T.T
End up, I walked down. Shame on me wuwu

What my first thought when I walking down was, I NEEDA LEARN SWIMMING!

Conclusion

It was tiring yet FUN! Not FUN about the games, but time to escape from working, stressful life, and had fun moment with friends.

After shower and we are heading for dinner

My naked face. Byeee

Im Lion Queen

It was past two weekend I went to perm my hair at Salon that I used to colour my hair-Future Salon located at old Klang road. Usually I get all my hair done especially colouring and perming by purchasing coupon from Groupon. Seriously, cheaper alot! I'm kind of stingy *hehehe*

Thanks my boyfie (JJ- use to call my boyfie in entire blog which stands for JUIJUI - his name ) who always spend the time with me while I'm doing my hair, facial bla bla . It takes about 3 hours to complete. He don't even blaming or mumbling at me. Thank u, my love!

Here's our photo in the Salon.

Perming in progress~

I'm Lion Queen! grawwww

Frankly speaking, I'm not really satisfied with my curl. It's so thick and heavy. Even causing my hair super dry and fizzy. I'm working hard to repair my damage hair with treatment now. For the first week I'm still cannot accept with my curl. I rather tied up my hair when go to work. I called myself - Lion Queen -
After one week, my hair getting better, but still fizzy and feel rough when touching.

After myhair done, he brought me to have late lunch. Hmm consider as high tea too. We went to Shakespeare Boulangerie and Patisserie at SS15. nice food and nice ambience. I ordered spaghetti aglio olio and he ordered beef Burger. Taste so nice.

Few photos before leaving. Hehe

Publika Solaris Mont Kiara

Last weekend I'm back to Klang. The day I have been waiting for so long!
As usual reach KL and my boyfie picked me up. He bought me DURIANS! Thank you so much =)

He told the seller I wanted sweet taste durian, and seller recommended this D88

The next day, we went to Publika, Mont Kiara to celebrate buddy birthday. It was our very first time went to Publika. We are not familiar to Mont Kiara area. While waiting for other friends, my boyfie and I jalan jalan all around. It's sound weird but is our habit and we are having fun to visit grocery shop. BIG is the name of the high class grocery market. My boyfie enjoy even he is not buying anything. He LOVEs there. Fresh seafoods, cheeses, herbs, wine, and pork! The counter that he love most! ^^

Afterwards, we walking around to choose restaurant that we can having our late lunch (maybe hightea) cause its almost 3pm. We choose The Red Beanbag instead of Plan B. (try Plan B for next visit)
Due to limited seats and we are total 9 peoples, so have to sit separately. OUR foods!

Hmmm nice to see but not nice to eat. The Atlantic - egg Benedict is not as nice as my double ben (my previous post) and it is so so expensive. RM22
My boyfie ordered  My Crustacean Cousin because of the tiger prawn and big scallops. He is so regret after taste it. Small plate and he said is just to fill up his stomach lining. RM29
Friends ordered Sumo - pan fried salmon steak on a bed of potato roasti and Fowl Luck - roasted chicken thigh with herbed potatos.

Second round we went to Wondermilk - Cupcake lover!  We bough a medium cake and four small cupcakes for birthday boy. He plan to get 12 small cupcakes and a medium size cake. Luckily I was there, right on time to stop him. :D No one can finish all this sweettie pie (taste super sweet!)

Was thinking to have my own bakery shop in future. Mybe is only maybe, maybe my dream will comes true. No one know. Bokery would be name? *hohoho*

Wondermilk mini cupcakes

Cupcake for the birthday guy!

There is a street of coffee fair on that day. Having my free mocha from Nescafe. The new coffee maker is so cute and so convenience. Variety of coffee to choose. You can even make hot chocolate and my all time favorite - green tea latte. Starbucks in the house. :)
This Nescafe Dolce Gusto come in four types, manual and automatic. There is a competition to design your own Dolce Gusto to win a prize. When the sales person walked to me and asked: Are you interested to join our competition? My boyfie answered on my behalf: No Thanks! (He don't like push selling) Hmm, but anyway, the sales person demonstrate how to use the coffee maker with the small cutie packet (I called dom dom, cause it's look like 'domdom' *shy*), and I tried one cup of mocha! Taste yum! (I'm not really a coffee fan!)

Before end of today's blog, up some of my photos. =)
