KARAOKE!

OMG I HAVE LIFE TODAY!
Went KTV with Vivian and beile today as you can tell from the title...
And we went a little crazy. :P Or me? I hope that BeiLe and Vivian's ear drums didn't burst or I'll have to be liable for the rest of their life. I think the number of songs that we selected are not even enough for like 3hours or 6hours. LOL. tried to do Baro's rap during beautiful target and O.K. LOL failure. So vivian chooses all the sad sedimental songs while I chose all the jumpy wowowyy songs. Doesn that make sense?
I guess the best song was sparks fly. All 3 of us know that song pretty well. So we were like jamming our asses off. LOL. And I think that my korean pronounciation is so much better than chinese. LOL. even though I don't really know the lyrics but I survive with and without romantization. Whereas chinese is just hopeless.. I can't even catch up. The only song I think I sang properly... (the chorus only) is like 听妈妈的话. And another one is the liang shan bo yu ju li ye (something like that la. I don't know the title or what) Omg like a failure right. Haha had a lot of fun today. Didn't manage to sing the rest though. :( Like so many other songs.
So the next round will be 6hours and we'll all have no voice after that. Good luck to us. haha.

By the way, failure me tried to create weibo yesterday. So I was looking for the sign up button. But it was in chinese. Then I don't know what is sign up in chinese. FML. I was randomly clicking area around the sign in. And I got into the sign in page. Apparently, Vivian had to help me cos I didn't know what is 昵称... sigh. and other stuff. Then I signed up. But then they don't allow me. is it because I put my passport number as 123456789? How come I can't use my email to log in. Urgh. What is this? Is it because my hotmail location is US...Going to try again tomorrow.. Or maybe ask someone to help me. ;)

OMG HAHA I LOVE THIS.

kyungsoo. WTH?

I'm so happy for them EXO K first award. they deserve it.

I can't believe its Baekhyun's hand!I thought it was KAI! oh my oh my

Mama awards tomorrow. And I'm waking up early to go for a mini hike with carny, vivian, xenia (hopefully) and ayana. I MUST REACH HOME BY 3.30pm! MUSTTT!

Oh yeah. I watched finish the Thousandth man.
And the ending is so freaking good!

Even though the show is like weird. Its too fast. 8 episodes only. And the main leads are quite ugly? Haha. I only watched it because of jinyoung's cameo in episode 3. Its freaking hilarious. He can act. sure. HAHAHA. And because of the theme song. I don't mind hearing Hey Girl by B1A4 for 8 episodes. :P
So while watching this drama... I was hoping its not like my girlfriend is a gumiho where she gets returned and all the pangsai crap... Because that would be like a copied storyline or ending alr. So I was betting my entire life that the girl will die. Which is true! yayyyy!!!
Overall, its a good drama. Enough for 2 days. (usually 8 episodes in 1 day. but i started watching at night) Haha. Okay. Its not really good. Its ok. so-so. NOT BECAUSE OF LOOKS. I just got bored halfway through. haha. But some parts are actually really funny! especially secretary park HAHA.

abrupt ending:
hope exo wins tmr even though I know that B.A.P deserves it.
bye.

Vietnam Day 4

Time now: SINGAPORE TIME 6.20PM Sigh, last day here and Im in the airport waiting to board the plane now. Time passes so fast when you've been sleeping. Im typing this post as slow as I can because if I finish this blogpost, I will not have anything to do on the plane since I'm taking budget air and it is so boring. What to do.. There is like no Singapore airlines to Hanoi.. And if so.. Pay twice the amount just to watch movies on the plane? DREAM ON. I rather take that extra 200 bucks x4(my mum, dad and bro) to buy 320 plates of chicken rice. (kidding. I don't eat chicken rice. Maybe mixed vegetable rice) So I actually intend to blog on the plane. BUT, IM SO BORED HERE. PFFT. Unlike my mother, brother and father, I did not download any movies on my phone. Well, for my dad, his tablet. I got away with boredom on the first day because I slept through the flight. And i swear if I fall asleep on the plane this time, I will not be able to sleep tonight. basically, today was spent lazing around. Haha. Went to Ho Chi Minh maloseum (no idea how to spell that) to see his body.

view of lake from hotel room.

 

That place is huge. Including the museum. I'd like to learn more about him if my parents are willing to spend some money to enter the museum and to see his house. Unfortunately, they are so stingy that they are not willing to change some USD to Vietnam money. I really want to learn more about this great guy! Instead of just reading about him on internet. -_- pfft.
Walked all the way by west lake to see the pagoda before entering some random hotel to pee and then ate KFC. we're reluctant to eat by the road side cos it doesn't seem hygienic! Really! The road is so dusty and all.

I am still amused by the fact that there are no accidents or whatsoever. I didn't even die from crossing the road with tonnes of motorbikes and cars.. I just crossed the freaking road without caring. Lol. They just honk their ass off at you and then avoid you and drive either in front or behind you. Maybe they can invite me to become the conductor of the car horn orchestra. Okay, I dont make sense. :S Haha so I went back to the hotel after lunch and slept. Yes, sleeping is my hobby since I've been sleeping for 4-6hours during the holidays. I think I'll probably just sleep after I finish typing this. By the way, im on the plane now. And the rest of the day spent lazing around the airport doing nothing. Its more interesting than the langkawi airport. More food place and free WiFi.

Overall, I am sure that I'll have to go back to Vietnam in the future. This trip is too short for my liking. Yes, I've walked on the streets and experienced a little bit of their life... But I've yet to visit the towers, all the museums etc. All because my parents dont want to spend money and so we just take a picture outside. Pfft. So when I earn enough in the future and if they're keen in visiting again.. All those museums (my dad 101% won't wanna come. Lol) I'll take them there. Or I'll just travel alone. Sometimes, I feel that travelling alone is the best. Vietnam is a lovely place. People are really pretty there. Their eyelids are amazing. Haha. Okay, and apart from people being aggressive, not as bad as china though, its a good place to travel. Its very different from Singapore. No train, nothing. I wonder how they survive. Hanoi itself is pretty big . Life is pretty much carefree there in Vietnam. You can literally see kids there playing along the streets and cycling to school in groups. Or people sitting by the roadside drinking coffee.

Mental note: come back to Vietnam again, tour finish Hanoi, go to ho chi Minh city, sit their train/rail/wtv to sabah(is that how I spell?) and fish in ha long bay. Haha! if i go to Vietnam again around this time, I'll make sure I wear jeans and bring more Vietnam money and not like my parents who brought a bunch of USD and are unwilling to spend or change. Wear proper shoes. okay. Byebye. Time: 8.05pm. Btw, if you go to Vietnam, please try their coffee. Don't add sugar or milk if not it will be so gross. Just taste the actual thing. Its fragrant k! Brand G7. Bought some back. :P

Vietnam Day 3

Hanoi. 3hours ride to Hanoi. I almost died on the car because it was so uncomfortable... I was sleeping and my neck started to ache badly. And I've heard uh the entire red album, the entire take me home album, entire janus album. Entire itB1A4 album.

To be honest, I was sleeping so I dont know what was I listening to. We then arrived at Sheraton hotel. :-) and my brother and I were left to roam around the entire hotel. Haha. We just ended up hogging the internet area. Lol. Desperate need to stalk exo and one direction. I need to go to my list to stalk one direction cos exo one over spam. Life of a Fangirl. Then up to the room... Daddy picked us up. There is no free WiFi in the hotel room for a 4-5 star hotel -_- unlike halong.. WiFi all over the hotel. Cabbed all the way to Hong tiem lake and walked to see the red bridge. Zzz crossing the roads here is still a nightmare even though i got used to it and I survived crossing the roads pretty well. Look! Here I am! They dont follow the traffic light.
Lol finally saw traffic light. The lake is huge and the bridge is pretty. There are even people fishing there.

went to eat at some BBQ chicken place cos there was simply NO other food apart from KFC and expensive restaurants and cafe in which, I ate for dinner later. Walked around the old squatters where my mum told me its like Singapore in the past. Damn. Those people just hogged us to by their stuff. It was really interesting to see them sell and set up their stalls.

we walked many rounds and got lost. To be honest, I didn't know where the hell were we. We then went into a nearby hotel to grab a map and at the same time.. Use the loo. Haha and use some internet there to search on where to go next. So we found our way to st Joseph cathedral. Its so grand. Like the architecture and all. The carvings are intricate. And there are even children.. MANY, playing around there.

then we stopped by at a cafe.. Where we sat on stools. Low stools to drink coffee. Duh, if you come to Vietnam and dont drink coffee, then you have issues. The smell of the coffee is so fragrant. Is that how i describe?

Urgh, suck at this. Its bitter. And i like it ^^ Then we walked all the Way to hoa lo prison. Omg the walls have like glass shards and all. So freaky and scary. To prevent female captives from escaping. (the only attraction i enjoyed most) read every single board and omg it was really scary. Like the prison walls and all. So scary. So small, dark, eerie and scary. 200 women share 1 tap. I swear if its me, I'd die on the first day. I really admire them for their loyalty to their country. I'll stay loyal for Singapore but I'll die within the first week. Or maybe, i will survivie cos i have the will... Yepp.. Like what people say, I belong to the 草莓族.. Never been through hardships. I dont deny. So I read through information board properly and just admire them.

Gonna see museums tmr. Unfortunately, we couldn't see them today because im wearing shorts! Plus it was freaking cold! My mum told me everyone was staring at me.. Either because my legs are too sexy (which is probably not the reason) or because they think that im insane for wearing shorts in such a cold weather. I think its probably the second reason. Haha. How will I know it was that cold. There was no turning back the moment we got onto the cab. Pfft. Its 6.28pm here now. Currently looking for a convenient store which they conveniently dont have. -_- Yepps. So that's today. Going back to Singapore tomorrow evening. Flight at 7.30pm Singapore time, 6.30pm Vietnam time. Probably gonna blog tomorrow. I can't believe its Monday already! Its like Tuesday tomorrow. Need to go for facial on wednesday. Its so dusty and smoky here. I might get lung cancer in the future cos if too many second hand smoke and smelly roads!

Vietnam day 2

Whoa, time passes when you're having fun. Today was much better than yesterday. I must admit, stones and caves are rather interesting even though I still rather historical sites than geographical sites. I just can't seem to really appreciate geographical sites more... Even though I'm a pure geography student and an elective history student. And my geography is better than my history by quite a lot. okay so my parents booked a private boat out to see CAVES. hahah and stones and mountains and mini islands? The landscape is beautiful. Its so pretty! :-) and the tour guide was quite entertaining! And having the entire cruise? to ourself.. Shiok. Sat on upper deck half the time.. And read my readers digest and at times just stare blankly at the islands.

The first cave we visited was crowded. But its so pretty! 

I can't believe that the cave was once under the sea millions of years ago. The ceiling is so huge! And you can totally see the action of erosion done by the waves.. The limestone structure is so huge and amazing.

Yepp, lack of vocabulary. Sorry, i dont ever write descriptive. Then second cave was huge too. I've been to caves in langkawi and phuket but i honestly think that ha long bay's one is good. Its the best. Then the second cave was quieter but its huge. Really huge.

 look like lion right. HAHA.

forgot what landform is this. start from s.. but i remember how its formed. the tour guide explained it to me :P

 

And then we sat the boat to the third island with the cave.

view on the way to the third island...

 

That cave.. Ceiling was super high and it was like an opera house! There was the monkey look alike, turtle look alike, dragon look alike, sleeping human lookalike etc. That cave extends all the way to the top. And i had to climb my shit ass off to the top of the mountain, island.

 

Wtv. I didn't study anything that got to do with what i saw. And the view was magnificent. When i look back at the entire cave, i was like whoa. So pretty! After that we had lunch on the boat. It was like 3/4 seafood. Poor me. So i had the entire fish to myself! The fish is so fresh and it tastes so good. Ahhh. We then went to a nearby island to hike. 500 steps. Being forever lazy. and I was wearing sandals only, I only climbed 250 steep steps and the view is freaking pretty. The entire bay is huge!

Oh yeah... what I saw:

damn cool! like far way from the mainland.. there are such stuff! small sampan selling stuff!

 

 

Them 1h30min ride back to the jetty. After that was dinner. Crossing the roads here is still a nightmare. I swear with all those horning.. Can form an orchestra! -_- so noisy. I dont even know who are they horning at. The air is freaking pollutes here (except the islands... Like further out) at one moment, I smell lemon grass, next, nail polish, then smelly air? Etc. All sorts of weird smells. Idk how to describe them. But the smells are deeply etched in my nose? Haha does that make sense. Obviously it doesn't. I need fresh air. I come for fresh air. -_- Going back to Hanoi tomorrow morning.

   

VIETNAM DAY 1

Im so tired. I barely did anything today apart from sleeping. -_- yes. In Vietnam. I can't believe I woke up at 5.30am and only slept for 2 hours 30 minutes. I didn't even know what was I doing at the airport. I was like -_- throughout. Still having withdrawal symptoms for the best concert in my life. Ps.. Still in sm wonderland. Or more like fantasizing.

So apparently, I got on the plane.. And I didn't know that the plane took off already. The next moment... I realised that I'm in Vietnam. So I slept for 3hours. The weather here.. DAMN SHIOKKKK! its only 24 degree Celsius, not so hot and not so cold. Its fantastic! Unlike Singapore. freaking hot or freaking cold. -_- So we got on a car that fetched us all the way to Ha Long Bay.. Its like 106km from Hanoi to Ha Long... 3hours ride. Omg. I slept again ok. Im amazing. I know. My neck is aching like crazy. Then check in.. Blablabla. And then found out my brother and I are sharing the same room. Luckily.. Its 2 single beds. Haha, our room is a mess compared to our parents one. (shall elaborate on that later) We then headed off to er walk?

 

 

Crossing the roads here.. Is like committing suicide... NO TRAFFIC LIGHT. NOTHING. they just horn at you and they don't bother to slow down AT ALL. I was so scared while crossing the road... We made it to the beach (safely) and took a few pictures before finding a place to eat dinner. It is said that ha long have the freshest seafood in the world.

 

(I can't eat seafood) but I tried their Vietnam special. The fat beehoon? And the sour fish soup? The fish is damn fresh. (duh, beach is just opposite. They just caught it) the omelette is damn good too. And the fried rice is amazing. I love it! Haha. Fried noodles too. Basically, I ate my brother's, mother's and father's food. Greedy me. Ok, not a lot. Like 2 scoops each. :P Then walked and looked at the market and all.. I was wondering if we are the only tourists here? :| or what? 5km later (almost died) reached the bridge or sth. And we stoned. It was dark at 5pm. Can you believe it? And the bridge didn't light up. So we walked 5km for nothing. No. 10km. Walked all the way back. here I am at the hotel, spending 3hours on tumblr, spazzing like mad.
