SGD100 2D1N TRIP
Went overseas with TeckHui, Dingze, Weiliang & Edwin on Good Friday... Destination? Johor... original plans was to KL but unfortunately, time does not permits... and no tour fit into our plans... amendments were made and... there we are... Johor Bahru... Too bad, LeeChang & Terence were not able to make it... Just SGD100 we enjoyed the whole trip... The only cons got to be the waiting time over at the Malaysia's Checkpoint & the rain today which pratically flood the roadside & we all were semi-drenched...
:: Accomodation ~
Grand Continental Hotel was a four star hotel... but with relatively cheap rate... 5 of us shared a room and cost < SGD20 per person... Breakfast Buffet for 3 were provided... though the food wasn't that good or variety wasn't that much... The atmosphere was great... Inside the room... everything was nice... comfortable... We chit chat till 3am before we lights off... Got to know each other better haha... We woke up around 8-9am and still feel refresh... They had a swimming pool... and the water was co~~Ld.... we didn't really swan like i did in Singapore... but we enjoyed and have fun playing with the icy cold water... i freeze like hell...
:: Shop Shop Shop ~
Holiday Plaza, Plaza Pelangi and, last but not least, City Square.... We had the tendancy to spend alot... not for one items... but we just fall in love for many of it... but of course, we tried to restrict ourselves... Imagine a Converse shoe sold in SGD40 in Singapore was sold SGD20+? Clothes could go as low as $9 for one nice one that cost $20 in Singapore... Definitely a place to go... All the Plazas sold cheap VCDs, CDs, DVDs & even games like its so commonly seen... Holiday Plaza was prefered... due to the distance from Causeway, its relatively cheaper... i restricted myself to buy 2 tops oni... next time i went there... i will comb down all stores... and buy lots... haha...
:: Eat Like Rich Ass ~
Over the two days... we ate nice food... When we reached JB and checked in... we went to Vivo@Plaza Pelangi for Spagetti, Pizza... I had Cookies drink and it taste nice... all prices are simply affordable... as i could only get half the quantity if i bought it in Singapore... Dinner was 4 dishes from a roadside Restaurant near Holiday Plaza... Food was nice too... We had deer meat & frog legs...
:: Singing OR Eating ~
We decided to go to their popular KTV outlet, Redbox for some Karaoke session... Its look like KBox but their service was top notch... Although the price was slightly higher than Partyworld... two drinks per person & a Buffet till 10pm was included... and we ended up getting lots of food.. haha... just after dinner, mind you... Me & Teck Hui help the rest to get food... and we return with both hands full of food... Guess what? The personel there politely ask where is our room and opens the door for us... Knocking the door before opening it... Oh ya... it took 3 person just to guide us to our room... one at every corner... smiling and guide us politely... 5 star treatment we felt... when we finally begin singing, we always wonder... are we having dinner or are we singing there... haha... Great place, Great Service... loved to be there again...
