Christmas Party @ MBS - 25 Dec 2010

HO~HO~HO~

Merry Christmas!

Wish everyone a joyous Christmas =)

How did you spend your christmas..??!!

Well for me, we tried something different this year~

Instead of celebrating at friend's house, clubbing, or at a chalet.

We booked a hotel room at Marina Bay Sands (MBS)! ^^

This December sure cost a bomb..$~ $~ lolx!

We kick off the Christmas Celebration with Lunch..!

Went to try the lunch buffet at this Yuki Yaki Japanese Restaurant at Marina Square.

It's a mixture of steamboat + BBQ style, similar to soul garden.

Since it's a Japanese restaurant, it provides more variety Japanese food like sashimi, sushi etc

'This is how it looks like, Steamboat & BBQ side by side'

Makan Time!

What's more?!

If you happened to be a student, be it a uniform or working adult.

As long you are able to show them your student pass, you get to enjoy this food at a discount rate!

For my table, only 1 of them bring his student card along.

Just when we though only 1 managed to get the discount rate, the restaurant Captain who is attending to our table.

Charges us at student rate as well~!!! Hoo hooo~

This year Christmas start slightly earlier... haha... =P

Discount from CAPTAIN Santa! ... Cheers!

However, I don't really enjoy the food.

Although the price is quite reasonable, cost around $23 per pax inclusive of service charges and GST. ++ Free flow of drinks as well...!

The food that they served is not really that fresh especially the sushi and the soup for the steamboat is rather tasteless.. Quite disappointed...

Always wanted to tried eating steamboat with BBQ, but after this experience.

Think i will stick with steamboat in future... lolx... =P

After which , We head towards Marina Bay Sands!!!

Here we come! =P

Some of us take this chance and went to the highest point of the building to take photos, while the rest take this opportunity to enjoy the comfy of the bed..! ^^

This should be the highest(above sea level) swimming pool ever built in SG!!!

Awesome view there!

'The City View'

'Over see ECP'

'The Gents'

Look! i found a Woo laa Hoop~

It was so packed at the highest floor, maybe due to festive season... You can see lots of kids running around the pool, foreigner taking pictures & couples enjoying every single moment with their loved one... =)

-'DIY' Christmas dinner-

After our lunch and before we check-in, all of us went to Carrefour to purchase our very own DIY Christmas dinner!

Our DIY dinner consists of chicken, ham, pizza, bread, butter.... and.... eh... beers? wines? brandy..? lol...

Dinner Time!

Liquor, wines for the night party...!

We have 2 team, Red & Green to challenge each other for games and prizes for the Christmas party!!

Winner get to choose the present, while loser....... get to drink! =D

Both Team get to choose & mix any alcohol into a small cup before the game start, once done. Both drink are mix into a bigger Mug...

Can you believe we even play this game using dice instead of our hands?! =P

The 'Frog Game'

It's was quite a fair competition for both team.

Left until the next morning and take it as breakfast...! =D

Hereby Wish Everyone a Happy Merry Christmas & a Happy New Year!!!

Hotboys Kelong (10-12 Dec 2010)

It's been a week since our very first fishing trip~

Finally managed to find some time & energy to pen down our voyage..
Apologize for the slow updates! =P


Was feeling very restless and lethargic for the next couple of days after i got home...

The heat has taken its toll~
SUNBURN..!!
Taking few days to recuperate from the damages done by the Sun!
Wanted to be more tanned~

But... .. ... .

The Weather is being Nice~
The Sky is soo Clear~
&
The Sun is being kind & generous~

Ever seen 'LobsterS' fishing..? =D
Sunburn on the very FIRST day! lol...


Lets' kick off with the events..! =)

Depart on Friday morning, 630am to woodland checkpoint via Mini-bus.

Before we embark on our journey~
We met up for a early breakfast, 530am..!!!

At that point of time, you can tell from everyone's facial expression that all of them desire for some Zzzz~ than showing any interest for breakfast!!! LOL!

I'm worst~ 'KO-ed' =D
Couldn't wake up within the stipulated timing.
Fortunately the day before, all those fishing equipments was shifted to my house...
Coz the mini-bus pick us up at my place, so those guys came to wake me up and carry those equipments to the vehicle. lol...!

Ohayou~!!! =P



Personally i like the part,
whereby we enter Malaysia and was traveling along the countryside road...
With Oil Palm Plantation at both side of the road, stretching from 1 end to another..
The hot-road mirage seem to goes endlessly ahead~



Poor Driver!!!
While most of the people was falling asleep, the driver had to concentrate on driving.
At the Same time, Fighting the ever tempting Z-Monster!!! lol...

I was sitting right beside the driver, notice how he fight off the Z-monster... HAHA!!!
Eating Peanuts,
Drank Coffee,
Chewing Gum,
Do some Stretching,
Lastly, Slap himself!!! HAhaha..

Initially I couldn't confirm exactly what he was hitting but his hand motion was swinging towards his face...
After which, i saw him shaking his head... lol!

I was surprised & curious at that point of time, coz the Air-Con was On and windows shut.
Was wondering whether it could be a mosquito...
But that's no way a mosquito can get into the vehicle while traveling at 90-100km/hr.

Just to double confirm i was right, i turned around & asked those who are awake and knows what is going on...
Some guys behind witness the whole incident..!!

Almost burst out laughing...!!! =D
HAHA!

-Welcome to Tanjung Leman-


-Reached Tehjung lehman Jetty-
Everyone looked restless after a 2hr journey ride


Although we had our early breakfast, we felt hungry! =P
Order some look-alike 'Ramily Burger' @ 5 dollar RM at the jetty.

Still looking sleepy~ but I'M HUNGRY!!! =P

*The boat that we are taking to Kelong*

~Bye to Mainland..! Welcome Kelong..!~

*40min ride to the kelong*

Out at the middle of the Sea, the Sky, the Sun! =)

-Kelong-
Under-ONE-ROOF!

-The Recreation Corner-
Areas for you to play Mahjong and sofa for power nap~

The Dining Hall..! Cool..! lol...

Arrived at the kelong just in time for our very first Kelong food...

Basically for every meal, there is a Soup, Veggie, Fish, Meat!
Daily meals compromise of Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner & Supper!


Question: Ever wonder how they inform you it's Time for Lunch/Dinner???
.
.
Answer:
There's a Bell at the Dining Hall, when the foods is ready.
They will ring the bell and once you heard the sound, you know it's time to fill your stomach.!

-Day 1 fishing-

Ladies with their Catch~!

*Joanne*
-Kick off with a small fish in line-

*Crystal*
The Biggest Puffy Fish Caught..!! =P

*The lucky chap*
-Kelvin-
Caught the biggest fish among us!

*Jeremy's Catch*
The Longest Fish caught!
-Barracuda-

My very first time catching Sotongs Out at the SEA!
-*ALL BLUE*-

The result of our fishing trip!

We went for a 3D2N fishing trip, however most of us give up on the 2nd day..
The Sun was simply too hardworking! =P
Weather was Scorching Hot~

And so.....
We took a break and went into the kelong for shelter & few rounds of Mahjong...! =P

-Playing Carom-

I must strongly emphasize that fishing isn't a easy hobby!!!
It's really tiring, fatiguing and strenuous!!
Both mental and physical...

So tiring that once after you had your shower and the next moment when you lay down on your bed, within minutes..!
You will be in your Dreamland..!

Remind me of those days when i was still serving National Service..
Totally worn out after training, once you lay on your bed &
the next moment your eyes open, it's another brand new day.! =)

This is the Toilet/Shower Place!

Every business you do, goes right straight into the Sea...
You wouldn't be surprised to see toilet papers floating around while fishing... lol....
So be considerate... Stop Polluting the OCEAN..! =P

--Day 3--


Heading back to mainland on Sunday morning,

-Time's flies when everyone is having fun-


After all...
WE have concluded that this shall not be the first time and the last time we went on a fishing trip! =)

We will Explore other Kelongs and return back some day!!
Looking for -*ALL BLUE*- once again..!
