A trip to Jonker Street

It was such a last minute holiday plan. Most of the hotels were fully booked except for a few vacant rooms which were quite pricey. So, after being persuaded by my dad, we booked into one of those guest houses, located a couple of streets away from Jonker Street. At first I found it kinda dodgy about the place. But what the heck, if I don't try it I won't know what it'll be like staying in a place like this. Such an old building! To tell you the truth, it's not that bad. Well furnished and all. But it din't really matter anyway, since we din't spend much time in the room. Though I find these buildings quite unique. Looks small from the front view but when you go inside, it can be a mile long! LOL.

Jonker Street wasn't that exciting. Almost every shop was selling the same items. But the food there is good. Especially the Nyonya cuisines! Besides that, I was busy snapping pictures of the buildings and people.

I was actually interested to go to the beach side. And to see that there's no more beach because most of it has turned into reclaimed land!

Going to a historical city and not visiting the museums? Besides the Stadyus, the rest of it are not worth going at all! Seriously!

Yesterday...

Yesterday, I had a day out with my best friend Shinna! Unfortunately, Eve was suppose to join us but she had last minute replacement classes to attend. So, we went to OU again..and wanted to watch the 3D version of Final Destination.

Counter lady: Can I see your IC??
Me and Shinna: Here you are..
Counter lady: 1991? You're not 18 yet..
Shinna: 1991 is 18 already la!
Counter lady: (looks at my IC) 12...December?? Still haven't reach 18.
Me: (@#$%*# are you blind??) No, I'm born in January.
Counter lady: (Oh..) ...you're born in November... Still not 18!
Shinna: I'll be in a couple of months time.
Counter lady: I can let you buy but if they catch you I won't refund it for you. (turns to the other counter lady next to her said something in tamil...)
Counter lady No.2 : (takes the calculator and pressed a few numbers... ANS: = 18) ...18 already la...
Counter lady: No...You must be 18 AND ABOVE!
Me: (!@#$%&*)

And so...we ended up watching G-Force 3D version... There were so many small kids in that cinema hall! It was an experience watching a movie in 3D. Even though this is my 2nd time watching a 3D movie. The first time was in the IMAX cinema when my bro and I was in London.
G-Force...it's cute and funny but there wasn't enough action going on...that's why the 3D effect wasn't that impressive. Imagine watching 3D Final D.

Anyways, the next movies to watch on my list are Gamer, 2012, This Is It!, Avatar and many more!!

It's been awhile...

I've been neglecting my blog again. LOL

Just to recall back what has happened for the past few months...
Well, I don't think I wanna write back all those this time..

So what's new on me lately?

I've recently picked up the violin. I've been talking about it for ages but never got a chance to actually buy one and play on it. So now, even though I haven't attended any real violin classes, but I've been fiddling about my violin, learning to play by ear and tryna learn bits and pieces from Youtube. I know it's not a very good approach but learning it by yourself can be fun! ;)

Over-n-Out.
