Dubai II

Dubai II



2nd day



Early morning, we went to Abu Dhabi, another city-state or rather the capital of United Arab Emirates. Don't be mistaken that Dubai is the capital, it is not. Abu Dhabi has the neatest and most beautiful houses and architecture. Its seas were so crystal clear that it really sparkles under the sun! Went to the Palace Hotel, an 8th star hotel. MAGNIFICENT. SPECTACULAR. like what its name suggests, the hotel is really really palatial! you just go " whoa!" The hotel has some designer labels shops eg, Dior and Prada. There were gazillion ppl inside the TOILET TAKING PHOTOS. the toilet is like 2x bigger than the 404 classroom! As we passed by the entrance of the hotel, i saw TONY BLAIR, BRITAIN'S PM. i just went OMG OMG OMG, IT'S TONY BLAIR! IT'S TONY BLAIR! He was surrounded by 5-6 BEEFY bodyguards but i managed to catch a glimpse of him anyway. HAHA. I didnt really notice him at 1st because one of his bodyguard is really good-looking. HAHA. Roger, yes even roger was excited. I feel so honoured when Blair walked past me! Don't tell me stuff like " hey he's just another human". I WILL JUST WHACK YOUR HEAD UNTIL IT BLEEDS. ha!



Then we went to the Heritage Museum into the hawk museum. All the hawks there were trained and for sale. They cost millions of dollars! A camel cost only a thousand or two!

Noon time, went for Desert Safari. Went on a jeep with 2 italians and a canadian. Driver was a Pakistani. The sand there was a dazzling hot red and fine. The journey was an enjoyment initially when the jeep swayed here and there in the sand. Then, it became a torment as everyone began to feel nauseous and dizzy. Amma glad that chewing a gum did help! haha. The sunset was just so picturesque, so breathtaking. You could see miles and miles. snap photos after photos. went back to the entrance where we settled down for arabian bbq whilst watching belly dancing. The russian was a horrible dancer with little new movements. suay. went for henna painting! After dinner, mom and i went for camel-riding. It was plainly TERRIFYING. The camel was freaking big and tall and THERE WAS NO SAFETY BELT OR ANYTHING. I nearly fell down and mom got a bruise on the back when the camel began to erm.. run. Cold sweat.

shall type part III another day.

ZY IS GOING WID ME FOR HARP! Ang mo kio family centre and some animal research centre sent me emails too! I AM SHORT-LISTED:D

Dubai

PART I

Trip to Dubai is simply awesome! A very different experience, a very different culture and a very different sight! I really really learned A LOT.
Even the air stewardess is dressed differently. The ladies wear a veil that covers their side faces and then wrapped around their necks like a scarf. haha. The UAE plane was very very big! Initially i thought i wouldnt survive the 7 hours on plane but it turns out to be fine! watched lots of movies eg Shrek3, Fantastic Four, The Newly Wed, My wife's a witch and HAIRSPRAY! Hairspray and shrek 3 were damn damn good. Rent or buy them now!

Tour guide's called Lacey. She was a Chinese who had stayed in Japan for 3 years and then Dubai for 8 years. She's a passionate and wonderful guide who had tonnes and tonnes of knowledge. Her husband's called Roger, who was a English. Roger said he hated London and he loved to travel a lot (thats the reason he refused to live in England).There were only momma and I in the tour but it turned out to be such a blessing! We get to travel in Lacey's private car, a Honda Civic who was exactly the same as dad's and Roger's fantabulously luxurious MERCEDES when he's not working! They would introduce Dubai's architecture and culture as they drove.

Burj Al Arab, the 7-star hotel was the 1st place we went. A very grand place indeed! BUT wait till you visit the 8-star hotel which i would talk abt ltr! Had lunch there which was SELF-PAID. It was a buffet lunch at one of the restaurants, Al Iwan. The food isnt very great, partly because we werent used to Abrabian food. The lobster was cold and tough and the dessert was too sweet. But the restaurant was glamorously furnished with arabic characteristics. However, the bill was simply, spectacular. A total of 1030 dirrhams, which was S$412. If you are wondering where the 30 dirrhams (S$12) came from, it came from the Evian Mineral Water we ordered. yea right. Acoording to Lacey, she and Roger went for a high-tea in the hotel with some friends and it cost them some 4000 dirrhams. It was just expensive.

Cruise the arabian sea. The night scenary was breathtaking. had a chat with Roger. learned more about England's universities which i am super interested in. Roger's family owned a farm with many many cattle in england. halleluja! learned more of agriculture and stuff when i realised that farms do not need humans to squeeze the udders anymore! they use machines! DISAPPOINTING!! Abrabian food for dinner onboard. *shudders*. haha.

shall type part II tmr.

PAE

Feeling vexed now. Just filled up the form in the PAE booklet when mom popped a qs: You wanna take MEP?

ya, so the prob is: do i want to take MEP?

no idea, that is.

I have totally no idea what are the programmes for MEP and no O level basic education for that. JC life is gonna be stressful and busy with books and CCAs , plus i hope to complete my diploma at the end of 1st of JC so that i can focus on A lvls then. AND besides, MEP is only available in RJC, TJC and ACJC, meaning that i have to enter these JCs to take MEP if not it's gonna be super unconvenient for me. GREAT.

Phoned chrisliew who's not in favour of MEP. Tried contracting FangQi but she's not at home.

After stating so many cons, i couldn't find any pros to take MEP, but still, somehow or what, my heart feels itchy. halleluja. I am so damn self-contradictory.

I shall decide when i managed to get to fangqi

ECP OUTING!

ECP outing wid lizhu and i-pork-mini was super super SUPER FUN!!!!!! cyling cyling cyling! *yawns* god i'm tired cansss. It was hilarious laughter all the from JE MRT to cab to mac to ECP!

Laughter was about :
1)Weekiang.
2)weiqiang.
3)Using plasticine to make Winnie the Pooh a pair of nipples.
4) Pooh having testosterone, oestrogen and progestrone.
5) Pooh being asexual can reproduce by binary fission. Just imagine.
6)Piglet is gay. i didn't realise that piglet is male till vtann/lizhu told me. so what's with that pink outfit. gayness.
7)lizhu's chili saucer trick
8)porky's spongebob squarepants ringtone which made her a disgrace to society. This will cause caucasians to think that S'poreans are childish and ruined S'pore's international image and status.
9) vtann's primary sch friend's dad, maid and bro.
Tannie: Look at the guy i am staring at! That's my pri sch friend...!
Me and zhu turned and looked.
An uncle in his mid forties was enjoying a burger.
*laughter*
Tannie: i haven't finish my sentence! that's my p sch friend's dad!
*5 mins ltr*
Me: Is that your p sch friend *points to a lady carring a bag joining the uncle*
Tannie: THAT'S THE MAID!
*laughter*
*5 mins ltr a boy boy came and join them*
Me and zhu: Is that your friend?
*HILARIOUS LAUGHTER*
10) The McSpicy hamburger. I order a McSpicy and got this instead:




Yea right. FISH BURGER











Ending off wid a grp pic with Mr foo.

HALLELUJA! ECP TRIP WAS ONE OF THE MOST FANTABULOUS DAY IN THE ENTIRE YEAR!

Wednesday 14 November 2007

Yesterday was celebration for Liberation Day. Though i liberated myself on the day after Bio and SS paper 2s, yst was the official one. Happy Liberation Day peepo!!

went out wid momma to orchard and IMM to look for bag and shawl. Bought a Fion handbag for prom. Even though mom claimed that the bag was brought for me, but it is quite obvious that it would not be very useful cos it's blardy formal. AND so, it should end up wid my momma carrying it out instead. =] Finally brought my shawl, and so all stuff are ready. =]


Lunch @ Food Republican Korea





Rice cake! BUT not nice! the chinese one nicer!

Bo ri cha. a tea that taste like coffee
Dinner (steamboat) @ Prego (raffles hotel)

Olive oil & vinegar. the bottle is very glam!

A cup of Vanilla Tea latte to go with the food!

Going out wid lizhu and xua later to carry out a mission. HAHAHAHA. it's ok that you don't understand becuz you aint supposed to understand anyway. AND:

ANG YI EN, IF YOU ARE READING THIS! STOP BEING A COUCH POTATO!
