Chai-Ying

hello! so we haven't blogged in awhile--i'll try to recap as much as I can. We have done A LOT since last Friday...hopefully my memory serves me well!

Last Friday-Clarke Quay

Friday was the last day of classes for me! Well sort of...anyways! It was the last day of my HR class, and it was presentation day for our term project!!! It was pretty intense, but it went really well! I don't know how Singaporeans do it, but walking around in a suit when it's 30 bloody degrees out is like having your own personal sauna. Holy man..it was disgusting.

Here is my super hardworking HR metrics group
...we called ourselves Metrics Reloaded HAHA

That night Debbie and I went to Orchard to have dinner with her uncle and the guys met us later on. While we were waiting at the Orchard MRT entrance, we decided to all get some ice cream! Yum Yum. People here have an option to eat bread with their ice cream, weird hmm? After that, we went to Clarke Quay's Brewsters or Brewskies or Brewhateverthehellitwascalled and ordered some drinks. Tony ordered cherry beer or something, Hung had some other type of beer...ya, debbie had a virgin slushy something er other, and I had a shirly temple. Obviously, Hung is better at remembering our food choices lol. Oh! We also ordered some spicy edamame beans and chilli cheese fries--the spice on the edamame beans got really gross after awhile...so Hung ate the rest of it. Haha =)

Clarke Quay =)

Giving away Purell to 3 dirty children.
...it's my sole purpose on this trip.

oh hung lol

pwned.
i'm shorter and can jump higer than both of you.

Last Saturday-Sentosa!!!!

We woke up bright and early....well kind of... and went to Sentosa!!! For those of you who don't know, Sentosa is a beach resort that has lots and lots of attractions--google it! I'm far too lazy to try and explain what we did, hopefully these pictures will suffice. haha.

Getting ready to go on the Luge with Laura, Vicky, and Kane =)

On the Luge! wheee!!!!
Spot Laura and Tony's ass.

Tiger tower! We went up and saw the whole Sentosa!!!

The beachhhhhhhhhhhh!!!

Favorite picture of all timeeeeeeee lol

Sentosa at night =)


Oh we also rented tandem bikes...HAHAHAHA. ohh man those are hard to ride. When Debbie and I rode together, I crashed into a construction fence 3 times. That's all I'm going to say about that.


Sunday-Orchard(again lol)

Tt rained like MADDD. my goodness, it was a steady stream of water. Nevertheless, we toughed it out and went shopping!!! We decided to go to to Orchard and get some gifts and also go shopping for ourselves lol. Tony and I read on some random blog that "Far East Plaza" was a great place to go shopping so we decided to go and find it. We ended up at this place called "Far East Shopping Center" and man..it was ...for lack of a better word...pretty "ghetto". We were all pretty dissapointed until Tony's local friend (with whom he was texting) told us we were in the wrong mall. Silly exchange students!!! We finally ended up at Far East PLAZA, and it turned out really well. More of a girl's mall then anything...hehe=)

It rained like nutssss that day!

Debbie is the new spokesperson for British Takeaway lol

Orcharddd <3

Monday-bummed around campus

bummed around campus.
lol

Tuesday-Chai and Tony hung out with local friends

My HR group wanted to go out for a celebration dinner becasue we were finally done my project. They brought me to this place called "Chomp Chomp" and it was delicious! We had chilli crab, bbq sting ray, "la-la" (they are like clams), popiah, hokkien prawn mee, oyster omeletes, black carrot cake, sugar cane drinks, and some other stuff. Sooo yummmyyyy! Meal of a lifetime =) I brought my camera ready to take pictures of our feast but my hands were literally covered in chilli crab sauce the entire time...HAHA. It was well worth it.

I'm not sure what Tony did, I know he had McDonalds...I'm sure he'll fill you all in =)
