Wooo ytd just reached Singapore. Afew bros and I went to Batam for holidays as the term break was ending. We went there for 3 days and 2 nights starting from 16th June (Monday). On the night before Shujie , Ian , Roy and Fat came over as my Dad was also going to Batam on the same day with us. Therefore he could fetch some of us in his Accord and the rest can take cab. We left off at 7am. After reached HarbourFront then we went to Mac for our breakfast. After that went upstairs get the ferry ticket and waited for the time to leave. At around 9am we left Singapore by BatamFast ferry and head towards Sekupang port. After the stamping of passport at the Arrival hall , the first thing we did was to check out the price of the ciggy there. And omgg 1 packet of Marlboro cost just $2 sin dollars. Cheappp right. Anyway lets recap what we did for the 3 days.
On the first day after reaching Batam , we got up the bus prepared for us by our tour guide. We were only following the tour for the first day. So our female tour guide Ivy brought us to many beautiful places. We visited one of the famous bridge , the biggest temple in Batam and a Polo Ralph Lauren outlet. It's the real Polo alright not imitation one. But is cost cheaper than u buy in Singapore as Batam is a tax free country. After that we went for our lunch at Golden Prawn Restrauant. The dishes were mainly seafood and were quite delicious. After that we went for massage at Healthy Massage Center haha. Really felt very good after that 1hr30mins. I felt like floating man the massage was so gd. By the way its CLEAN one as it stated "Healthy Massage" , not " Happy Massage". So after we finish our massage we went to MegaMall to shop.
haha at there saw many branded goods like Gucci , Louis Vuitton , Burberry , and Coach. But instead we bought many stuffs at their "NTUC" like drinks and potato chips for our hotel. I also bought a liquid foundation for baby haha. Hmm so after shopping we went for our dinner. We also had seafood but the dishes were not exactly like what we had for lunch. After dinner , we went to Golden View Hotel to check in. After that we went for karaoke session at basement and billard session. And i tell u the karaoke was like shyt. $40 sin dollars for a room and they serve u 2 cans of soft drinks and a plate of plain crackers. And the worst part was that the songs are all so old and when u sing no MTV one haha. Only got the lyrics appeared. So after all the fun we went to bed. As for the second day , we woke up quite late and missed our breakfast haha. Therefore we went to Nagoya mall for our lunch. That was one of the biggest mall and there were many nice shops there. And btw u can smoke almost anywhere in Batam . So after lunch we went shopping again and after 2 hrs
we head back to hotel. It was always raining there. At evening , we went swimming at the hotel pool and after that headed to A1 foodcourt for our dinner. There the food not bad lar. We ordered quite alot of food and my wuji friend Shujie went upstage and sang " hao xin fen shou" with one of the host. Haha really damn zai. After that dad came and top me 300k rupiah which is about $40+ haha. After makan we visited one of the clubs called PLANET. It cost around 30k rupiah which is few bucks and really is shyt inside. The music they blast is dont know what malay techno and inside very few ppl only. We sat down for awhile drank a can of coke and headed back to hotel already haha. After bathing they gambled using rupiahs haha so funny. And btw gambling is forbidded in Indonesia as it's a muslim country so guys if u go must remember. I slpt early as i was tired and they gambled till quite late. And then comes the third and last day . We woke up around 9am and went downstairs for breakfast
in buffet style. After that we went back room and slept again until 1pm then we checked out. After that another tour guide came and brought us back to Batam Centre to take ferry back. But upon reaching , i realise my passport wasn't with me and i panicked . Our tourguide then called the hotel staffs to ask them help to check and thankfully they found it. Then we waited for the driver to bring my passport back to me. After waiting we boarded the ferry and headed back to Singapore le. And i realised the hi-card i brought containing $100+ was lefted with $1+ haha. So took cab home and met baby at my house. She surprised me with a green tea icecream cake . Thanks alot dear but i forgot to bring ur liquid foundation back. i really dont know what i doing back then when packing. Sorry kk dear. i'll get u another one =)) . Anyways overall the trip was wonderful. We really had lots of fun. Ok gonna slp le.. nights all tata.
Then we left at around 3 to Orchard to do some shopping lols. Its been some time since we both shop together . Firstly we went to Zara and after trying out afew clothes , i bought 2 tops and 1 bottom and it really burnt my pockets. Then we head to Wisma shop shop awhile then baby
