Debbie

Hello, so yesterday we finished our 3-for-1 (3 parks for 1 price) deal by going to the Jurong Birdpark! It was cool, birds aren't really my favourite but some of them were really interesting looking. Oh when we went to the zoo, the guys got the fish spa thing, where fish would bite their feet and make their feet baby smooth I guess.. don't really know if it worked on them though. But Chai and I had a 15 minute back massage which I enjoyed but Chai not so much... haha.

My schedule is finally finalized and I don't have classes on Tuesdays and Wednesdays :) kind of weird to have it in the middle of the week, I wish it was near the weekend so I could have a 4 day weekend but oh well.
Oh, we also booked our reading week trip :) We are going to Kota Kinabalu for 5 days, mm so excited!!!

We went to Orchard Road this past weekend and only managed to hit 3 malls, so we have a lot more to go.. but we still have a lot of time to shop.

We also went to Chinatown. It was soo busy but we bought a lot. I don't even know if this picture justifies how busy and packed it was.


During our overpriced dim sum lunch

So let me tell you a story:

The other night we were waiting for the guys to come over and Chai thought it would be funny if they came to our room and we weren't in it, so we tried to mess up our room, putting chairs out of place and shoes all over the floor, and leaving our door open a little and went to the floor above to wait for them. The guys seriously walk so slow, but when they FINALLY came, they went inside the room for a minute, ran out down the stairs, and called us. Take into consideration that we could see them, so we called out to them and they looked up and saw us and reluctantly walked back up.

SO instead of wondering where we were, or being the tiniest bit worried guess what they did? Tony opened our fridge to put something in and then they both hid our laptops under our beds and ran out because they wanted us to freak out when we got back to our dorm since they thought we were doing the laundry. What great friends.

Then to pass time we had a nail painting and make up contest... haha I guess we are running out of stuff to entertain ourselves with while in our dorm.


But, the guys did redeem themselves because last night while I was reading an article, I looked up on my board and saw something weird behind a paper so I touched the paper and it was a lizard :( it scurried to the top of my board and I freaked out. Chai was on her bed and didn't see it but when she did we both freaked out. I wanted it to get out so I tried to scare it to go out but it ran away and scared us instead which ended up in me jumping onto Chai's bed :( haha and we didn't know what to do so we called the guys so they could come over and get it out. (when and if they talk about this, they will probably say I was crying over the phone BUT I wasn't!!) So we waited outside our dorm and didn't want to go in, but since the guys are slow, Chai said that lizards like light, so we turned off all the lights and I had a flashlight and we tried to shine it on one spot so it would come out but it never did.

When the guys finally came, the first thing they did was laugh at us, but then they went through our whole room, moving furniture and bumping everything to try to find it, but they couldn't and said it probably already ran out.


Then Tony looked in the corner and found it and they tried to trap it in a container but it was too fast and at one point it went underneath our fridge. Eventually, they caught it and we made them release it far far away from our dorm.

...

As you can tell, we have very different reactions to this creature... distressed vs excited.

Well that's all for now, blogging this is seriously taking a long time and I am getting tired. Bye!

  1. LOL! that was a very good post debbie!

    So where will you guys be staying? I stayed at the condo with my friends (if you guys have no place to stay yet lemme know, i'll get details for you)

    It has 3 bedrooms, 4 beds (2 singles, 1 queen and 1 king) a kitchen and a living room, it has a gym and an opened air swimming pool, AND it has a pool table to it tooo?) prettty nice and not too expensive. You guys could probably get the 2 bedrooms, but it's in a very strategic area, right across from this very very very famous bar, and there's lots of shopping on the sides.

    they aren't called lizards, you gotta call them cicaks. (chichaks) makes it more of a singaporean thing. LOL! so lemmme know if you want the details of that place debsie!! :) muahs

  3. That hotel sounds baller just by the name!

    It kinda sounds like the boys are turning into girls. Fish spa and makeup??

    So you should name each lizard you see after a hockey player. It'll make you get used to them. You can start with Hemmer.
