vacation to Singapore

Exam's over! Don't know what to do. Still have few more days in Shah Alam before I fly back to KK this Sunday. I haven't packed my things yet. I hate packing! Perhaps I'll start packing tonight as my housemate who will transfer to my room keeps nagging to ask me to pack my things.

Many things to blog about but don't know where to start..

Ok! Let's me start with my vacation to Singapore few days ago. What did it get from the vacation? BROKE and flu! Damn!! It's actually unplanned vacation for me as my family-my mum & sis and my aunt's family has booked ticket since months ago. I didn't book because of the vacation was during exam's week and I don't know when I finished my paper. After the exam's schedule was out and luckily my last paper was the same day as the date they traveled. So I rang up my mom and book flight ticket to Singapore. After checking few airlines-Tiger Airways, MAS, Air Asia, Jet star, Fire fly.. I bought the cheapest fare amongst all.. Can you imagine return ticket from KL to Singapore is ONLY RM95?? Yes! It's damn cheap! Air Asia offers ZERO fare to Singapore. (And now they are giving free seats until 15 Nov to selected destinations. Check Air Asia for more details.) Right after I finished Thermal Engineering paper-last paper of semester 5! My friend, Farah sent me to LCCT. I've online checked-in 48hours before the flight. See how excited I am! no la, I plan to take bus from KL Central to LCCT so I'm worried about I won't manage to arrive to LCCT right on time. So it's safer to check in earlier right. I think online check in is more convenience rather than you have to rush to the air port and queue. You also don't have to worry about time. You just have to be in the air port at least 30 minutes before the boarding time. Back to my story, I arrived to Changi airport at about 6pm and my family who travels from KK was waiting for me for about an hour already! Not much to do on the first day. Except that we discovered around our hotel to search for food court. Jalan-jalan sendiri d tmpt org.. nasib baik xsesat..LOLs..

The next day, we went to Sentosa Island. Since our hotel is located near to a MRT station, so we travel by MRT to everywhere. All of us never been to Singapore before, but you won't be lost if you know how to read direction and ask! An Indian man suggested to buy a ez-link card (it's similar like Touch n' Go). It is more efficient. Just scan your card and you can go to any destination by MRT. But here in KL, there were still long queue to buy tickets either for KTM or Monorail. Sentosa Island is nice place, but some places are still developing. Roller coaster is still under construction. Luge & sky ride was awesome! From the Tiger sky tower, whole Sentosa Island can be seen. We also went to the dolphin show and underwater world. The dolphins were so cute! Then, we met my mum's former classmate aunt Helen and brought us to China Town. Thanks for the treat aunty! =)

Then, the following day, Singapore zoo was our destination. Inuka the polar bear is cute! Like I wanna hug it.. LOLs! He was the first polar bear born in Singapore. Do you know what the color of a polar bear's skin is? Surprisingly, It's black! And the thick dense fur is white as snow. There were many more animals in the zoo but Inuka caught my attention. That was the first time I saw a polar bear! Haha.. after the zoo visit, we went to Orchad Road. The next day, after Sunday mass(I have no idea how my aunty can find the church) we went shopping at Bugis Junction. My sis bought 3 GUESS bags there! Crazy.. (hope she give me one of it) *evil laugh* On the evening, we planned to go to the Merlion City to watch the sunset but we couldn't find the way so we decided to go to Orchad Road AGAIN. Orchad Road is already in Christmas spirit. Nice decoration along the way with Christmas songs everywhere. (jingle bell..Jingle bell.. Jingle all the way)*Christmas mood* HoHo..

If you're looking for perfumes, go to Lucky Plaza. It's opposite to the IOI mall. I bought a Ralph Laurent perfume which cost me $78 (convert to RM = times 2.5. you do the math!) I went to SASA yesterday, the selling price is about RM250+ *wink!* Before flying back to KL (me) and KK(the rest of them) we sempat went to Bugis Junction again before going back! Tidak puas2 shopping!! I <3 Singapore.. I like the cleanliness of the cities.. looking forward for my next trip to Singapore but still dunno when.. hihi..

here are several pictures at Singapore.. more pics on FB.

weekend activities..

Since 31 August was a public holiday for Malaysia 52th Merdeka, not Malaysia actually, its MALAYA! So we had a long weekend (3 days off!). These are some activities that we had done during our long weekend.

Saturday

All of my housemates (except for Tina) + 2 of my housemates’ friends(Alvin & Charles) went to Bukit Cerakah for cycling. It was kinda tiring even though we only cycle for about 2 hours+. The entrance fee to Bukit Cerakah is RM3 for adults, and you can rent the bicycle price ranging from RM3 – RM5 for an hour and additional RM1 per hour. We were separated into 2 group as x muat keta. So, Pet, Belle,Alvin & Charles were in the same car. We didn't wait for them because takut x puas cycling cuz the park gonna close in few hours time.

rehat2 dlu!

ayo! tali putus tgh jln.. =(


oit! curi mangga!!

Actually we want to go to the four season house, but we lost the direction. Too excited till didn’t see the map. So we end up going to ‘Dusun Buah-Buahan’ and Cactus garden only. but the other group went there. unforturnately, the four season house was closed. After tired cycling, we went to Asia Cafe, Subang for dinner.. =)

internship..

Whoa! Its like almost 6 months since I last update my blog.. super duper busy right now with hectic schedule and tons of assignments + lab reports. Suddenly the blogging spirit comes after reading my friends' blog. *wink*

Too many things to be updated but too little time.. will try to update when I have time.. =)

I'll be going for my internship a.k.a industrial training for 15 weeks starting end of December. I've send my application letters to few of the company around KK last Friday but no news yet. There's a FB friend (can be trusted ka ah?) who is a pilot and engineer at the same time told me that he had discuss with his partner according to this matter and they agreed to give me the opportunity to do my internship in their company. He told me that he'll pay allowance (not salary ah!) 1K for practical. OMG! 1K..? $_$ Moreover, their office is strategic which located few minutes drive from home. Few weeks back, he called me asking about the internship and asked me some questions.
1. Why do you like mechanical engineering?
- erm.. I also don't know.. I apply for it and I get it. I have no choice so I just took it! SILLY answer!
2. Do you know about plastic casting?
- owh, yg itu. yg macam sand casting smua tu kan..? erm.. sa baru blajar psl manufacturing, blum sampai chapter tu. Again, you stupid moron! how suppose you answer like that?

By just answering these 2 simple questions like that, I think my chance to get the place is only 20%. But if I get it, I have to think longgggg to accept it. I know how my performance is. No working experience in mechanical engineering field. Who would pay you that much for nothing? I mean, the task given must be tough! (That’s just my speculation, ok!)

The moment he called, I just woke up from nap. Still blur! And he asked me again, what year are you in now? -2^nd year. Which semester?- 5^th semester. 5^th semester? That’s 3^rd year already! My gowd! What happed to you, Majoree?? If I were the person who called me; I wouldn’t accept anyone like that to do practical in my company. So, how about me? I don’t put high hope to get it since I’ve answer his questions like that. Stupid me!!! I also had sent my application letter to a piping company. It’s kinda big company as it make pipe for petroleum and has connection with Petronas. I’m kinda interested but its too far; located at KKIP. Other than that, a friend of mine also recommended her company; an engineering consultant company. Ok juga kalau di sana. Shah Alam has many industries but I have no transportation, so I decided to do my internship at KK. Hope I’ll get respond cpt2.. mls mo fikir psl internship lg.

~anyone knows any industry (kilang2/oil & gas/engineering consultant/ automotive) around KK?

Next post : last weekend’s activities..
