River Safari / Singapore Flyers, Batam, Johor Bahru

HEY YALL

There are just so many dates that Ritche and i went on until i don't even know where to start wtf. If i blog about all of them the blog post would at least take 3 whole days to type D:
I couldn't even find the time to blog over the past 2 weeks, that's how busy we were HAHA.

I don't know why our pictures always look so perfect leh.i always say we look alike (his auntie says so too) and he disagrees.maybe it's just the couple face?

Taken on our first monthsary (last sunday) when we did super random things cause we had no money left.we spent like all our money and a lot of our savings over the past month and people must think we're crazy but more than half of it was on food.A WHOLE LOT OF FOOD.

I've been eating so so so much more when i'm with Ritche wtf like no diet control. Diet went haywire. Ice cream, ice cream everyday, bubble tea maybe more than once a day. 4 meals or more are the NORM. Huge portions, buying snacks after meals. OMG.so much guilt LOL.

say hi to my gleeful idiot hehe

I'm never ever letting you goooooooooooo~ HAHAHA

Few photos taken at my place early in the morning on tuesday! We were heading for the river safari and zoo that morning and singapore flyers in the evening with another couple haha.double date!

We headed over to the river safari (just next to the zoo) first because it was noon and just way too hot to go to the zoo first! I had high expectations of river safari cause SEA aquarium was quite good, but seriously river safari was a disappointment.

It was damn sian leh like, more than half of the exhibits were closed, the animals were similar to those at SEA aquarium or just super ordinary, like those you find in the supermarts when you buy your steamed fish. The ticket costs $25 just to go in right now leh and it costs $35 at the end of the year when everything opens wtf. Thank god we didn't have to pay a cent for this :)

The only thing worth going for: RED PANDAS, TOO CUTE, TOO CUTE.

HAHA just look at that omfg #$)*&#^$)*&^@# its smiling and posing for me AHHHHH

i'll be more than willing to bring it home.i'll bring it everywhere i go LOL.fucking cute omg.

the jiajia and kaikai pandas are also in river safari but they were asleep or in the cave. -_- i heard that they're always like this so uh don't bother going all the way to river safari just to see them la.you can probably google better images of them than to go there and snap photos of their back facing you.

Right after leaving river safari it started raining :( so we couldn't go to the zoo it was so sad.
We thought the rain would have stopped after an hr or so and it really did, but there was no point walking in the light rain cause the animals would be hiding in their shelters anyway :(

Sigh, haven't been to the zoo in such a long time and when we go there it just had to rain when it was so fucking hot before that.

Tired boyfriend resting on the bus while i spammed photos heheh

 

Headed over to marina square for alfero's ice cream like seriously they have the best ice cream EVER.so smooth, so fresh and its less fattening.i think that was our 3rd time visiting their shop that week lol.

Walked over to the flyers after that! It's actually my 3rd time on the flyers but i always thought it was quite boring. 30 minutes was too long for me i'll just be using my phone after awhile but when we were on the flyers it just somehow seemed like we didn't have enough time. It felt so short i don't even know how its possible lol.

Photos i took using slow shutter speed WITHOUT A FREAKING TRIPOD LOL sigh so it isn't very clear oh well

We left pretty early that evening and headed for home cause we were going to batam the next morning! We had to get up at 5+am i dont even know how i managed to do so omg.

Honestly, the only nice thing about batam is that you can just pay $134 for the ferry to and fro including tax for 2 pax, and have a 5 star hotel room for the night! And the customer service at the hotel is damn good leh. The hotel that we stayed in is called Harmoni One Hotel, a short walk away from Batam City Square (i think?).

We visited 2 malls, and their fashion is either from a decade ago or it's nice but way too overpriced. Poor quality dresses can be sold at $30 SGD lol and not as if they're like damn unique or something, you can find these kinds of dresses anywhere else :( So we didn't buy any clothes in the end but bought some handicrafts instead.

The woman took less than a minute to get this done it's damn cool! And on the other side of the bracelet has my name as well :) $2 well spent hehe.

On the following morning, shit happened and we had to rush back to singapore. We changed our ferry time from 8pm to 9am but THANKFULLY they allowed us to change it without charge or any problems. Really just fucking lucky. We were both feeling crappy, like we just missed a whole day at batam and we're back in Singapore so we decided to head over to malaysia after completing shitty stuff in Singapore. Like woah we're the most impromptu couple ever HAHA.

We left for woodlands at 12+pm and reached malaysia at around 2pm! We even decided to stay at malaysia for the night LOL thankfully we just had enough to book a hotel and pay for food etc.
Now whenever i go to JB i'll have to go for the Ah Piaw wanton noodles and drink their lime juice with Ai Yu. You just have to take a cab over to Taman Sri Tebrau to find the stall! I guess their wanton mee standard can be compared to er, Singapore's pontian noodles?

I just realized i didn't even take photos in malaysia. Like fuck that place is damn scary. We've been approached by many teens selling stolen smartphones IN THE MALLS or just outside the malls OR NEAR OUR HOTEL. And you can see them like looking around for new targets leh. I don't even know how they're so pro at it.
I actually left my phone in the hotel and a hidden spot cause i didn't feel safe bringing anything out.
There's just too many stories of being robbed or whatever in malaysia.

I was so relieved to reach Singapore safely leh. I don't think i'll bring my phone with me the next time i go to malaysia. It's just too risky :(

My boyfriend is really the best in the world. Just a simple example from yesterday, i had a new student coming over to my place for lesson and another student right after. However my parents will be leaving the house while i'm teaching so there will be no one to take care of ginger so boyfriend came to my place early in the morning just to take care of ginger while i'm teaching.
After that he even sent me to work (he never failed to do so over the past few weeks) and picked me up 5 hrs later when my work ended. What the heck who does that? :(
Like idk, just so fucking lucky to have him. More lucky than striking the lottery.
