Met LF, Max and HY at Kranji MRT. I was about 10 mins late and HY only reached at 10.35 am. Honestly, I knew it would jam on Sat but didn't expect it was THAT jammed. The queue for 170 could almost make one full round around the MRT station liao. Just by queuing for bus, it took us an hour just to get to Woodlands Checkpoint.
*LF's words really struck me. Hard truth. She was saying that my intern company if no job offer made from them usually is almost impossible to get in le. So much so for clinging into the hope that I could go back and no need interviews. Perhaps this is why I got A for IA??? Hmm... 還是放棄希望吧。
The horror continued after getting passport scanned at the counters, as soon as we came down the escalators, the queue snaked its way from the landing pad of the escalator to the boarding bay. Keyword is snake. 人多到排隊都要繞圈圈變蛇形去。It was that bad.
Luckily the part on the Causeway itself was quite good. The bus driver was skilful in the sense that he knew when and where to cut his way into the front to skip lots of car taking up the bus lane. So the whole journey only took some 10 mins at most?
As LF is holding a China passport, this was my first time experiencing how long will a China passport clear itself at Malaysian custom. It turned out that it was quite long! While there was some queue for the autogate, the queue for foreign passport was long and I had to wait for the 3 of them to clear.
City Square was 人山人海. Some local malls are worse...
First thing was lunch at Dragon-i @ City Square. I think they really wanted a Chinese style meal where there were fish, crab, etc. LOL... 真的很會享受呢！Although there was queue, it wasn't a long wait before we were being served. A hearty meal... 就算沒叫一人一碗飯，單單吃肉菜都很撐的說。
Dragon-i籠的傳人拉麵小籠包餐館
上海炸排骨拉麵 (RM 16)
上海小籠包 (RM8)
這真的不錯下
連LF中國人都覺得不錯的說
香炒四季豆
海鮮炒刀削麵
這道有加黑胡椒
辣辣的感覺很爽
剁椒清蒸魚
忘了是什麼魚
不過魚肉有一種泥土味
老實說沒有很喜歡
但若取而代之的是一般魚
我覺得會更加好吃
Damage: RM211 (Paid RM50 only)
Walked around City Square. Went into Padini store and Max got himself a shirt (semi-casual, can be an office shirt too) and pants for RM168. The girls didn't buy anything there but tried out the sunglasses! LOL... Then we moved to Neway, oops!!! I only told them there is a karaoke outlet in City Square only lo, but didn't expect they would high over karaoke ds.
Took up both student and member offer. Separated into two bills as student cannot mixed with beer...
- Student offer: 30% off the entrance fee (RM30, minus off RM9)
- Member offer: RM100++ for the beer
還附贈酒杯呢！
那酒也給到這麼大樽啊！除了那大樽的啤酒之外，另外給了那個價錢還有兩大杯啤酒，總算物有所值啦！真的很多酒耶！好才沒醉的說，嘻嘻！所以每個人得到一份餐點、一份飲料、啤酒還有一瓶礦泉水tim... 不懂礦泉水是包括在哪一個package裡面，因為原本的package是提供有味飲料，而沒有礦泉水的。還真的賺到的說！
Of course I made use of this opportunity to make one member card for myself. RM15++ and it's lifetime. 去一次都值回卡費了。A little hiccup happened though: the mic system got no sound coming out after the first song 「被風吹過的夏天」 - 就算現在唱還是很有感覺的說。 Allocated to another room instead which was the one we got often when I went with PG they all. Nonetheless, they were pretty surprised by the good service at Neway: one wireless mic for each person, mic cover provided, sound system a lot better (according to HY la), service crew escort them back to room from toilet, in addition there's a phone app for song selection - no need to snatch the remote lo... 呵呵雖然講過了，但再講過都無妨，因為每次帶新人過去新山唱他們都會給這樣的反應。呵呵……
都話過不會輸給新加坡任何一間Karaoke - 除了Temasek Club那間，因為那邊的比較誇張一點：用投影機當屏幕！
High到他們
Damage: RM50.675 (karaoke head & membership card charge) + RM29 (beer) but only paid RM50
After karaoke, went back to shop a bit. Max retrieved his altered pants after purchasing at Padini. Visited Cotton On store, HY tried out dress and skirt. Honestly, it didn't looked that bad la. Try going out with skirts too! I too tried a casual shirt, but the price of RM79 really put me off. Afterall, seeing the currency exchange rate on the label, maybe buy in SG would be cheaper. It was 1:3.x!!! That's way too ex le.
Then HY and LF bought a pair of shoes and swimming goggles respectively. Goodness, 他們是在太厲害花錢，花到各個都沒錢給，最後去對面貨幣兌換商換多一點錢。The shoes HY bought looked nice and cost RM 249, won't be obvious to others that it was from CAT brand. LF had 50% for the goggles, 合折回新幣都不到十塊。便宜喔～
Lastly, had some BBQ sticks before we headed home... Guess I didn't really like to eat BBQ now. 看到食物上的燒焦部分，還真的不敢吃下去的說，怎麼烤到那麼焦啊？
跟不同人出門就有不同的感覺。今天跟這幾個出門其實我還蠻自由的，三八的不講，至少我覺得我們成熟一些些，講笑作弄人家是可以，但都會知道對方的底線，私人的事情他們不會過問更不會逼問。跟他們出門真爽啊！而且他們體諒又闊氣，真的找到工作後要好好答謝他們的說。如果是跟HH他們出門，像之前他們就憑在FB看到那幾張跟中學同學照相的照片，也不會想一下那四年大學都經常跟HH這班出門，現在只是抽空跟中學同學出門多一點，就一直問東問西而且捉住你不放確實有一點點煩。
Finally home at 2340 hours.
*我發現現在我應該好好地blog下自己的生活點滴，不然以後都不記得以前的自己是怎麼過日子的。慢慢找回以前的記憶再補上去，應該是可以做得到的。
夜晚，不管是什麼時間，是早也好，遲也好，走路回家都會有一種格外emo feel~ 不是悲觀的那種emo，而是一邊慢慢走著一邊聽著歌從地鐵站徒步回家其實不但能運動有益身心，還可以一個人獨處靜下來，想起很多東西。我不知道什麼時候開始有這個習慣走回家，猜想應該是開始當兵的時候吧，那時候就開始有出門逛街，逛到夜晚回家就走路咯。之前JC都沒有醬子，之後讀大學都搭巴士回家的。
走在同一個街道上，時不時會觀察周圍，看看這幾年有些什麼變化。其實都有的。首先是大牌458那邊裝新電梯，然後把大牌509那個露天觀眾席拆掉，再來就是大牌468裝新電梯，人行道也又大牌468這邊改去對面神廟那邊，雖然我不知道為什麼要這樣改。最近更在學校附近裝多一盞交通燈。最後，由下個禮拜六開始，就會有新巴士路線49號穿行這條街。
雖然說我住這裡還算平靜，但這些變化免不了的。我覺得心應該不會有太大的改變，還是依舊的我。除了要向前看之外，偶爾停下腳步看看下過去懷舊一下都不錯下的。可惜，有些個人覺得有紀念價值的東西已經被我親手丟了，所以呢要追回這些東西帶來的回憶就非常之困難。所以說呀，這世上唯一不變的東西就是該變。
