           Hi Peeps, long time no post here. This post is about my Krabi Trip on 13th of July 2015 A.D. Sorry, I know I post this late on 30th of August 2015 A.D. as I thought I lost my digital camera. I wanted a post with pictures. I finally found the digital camera when my mom packed her bag for another trip elsewhere.

          On the day of the trip to Krabi on 13th of July 2015 A.D, My mom and I woke up early to prepare for the trip. After we got ready, we went near Petir Road to take a cab to Changi Airport Terminal 2. After we reached, we went to look for the flight details on the large panel screen but our flight was not yet displayed. We were anxious and tried to went around to look for details. Eventually, I went to the nearby counter to ask for details. She directed me to the correct gateway / counter. Finally, I use my brain and think that all the tiger airways directs to the same gateway / counter. I quickly asked my mom to go the almost last few gateway / counter near the other end. By the time we walked there, the flight details was shown on the large panel screen.

           As it was the first time we went without my Elder Sister, I was abit blur at the counter but still managed to register ourselves for the flight. After we went into the other side for the flight, we went to grab something to eat and drink. My mom ate Wang's Café set meal while I got myself a Pizzo Pizza and a drink.

          After we eat finished, we got ready to go check in for the flight. I so scarred the alarm sounded when I walk past the sensor that I virtually emptied everything in my pocket. Then the Airport Staff told me to remove my camera on my belt. I unbuckle my belt, it was like quite embarrassing when my pants were loose without the belt to support it.

         Soon, we were on the plane. It was about an hour's of flight. I was so nervous on the plane. The plane suddenly like dropped some levels down the sky towards the end of the flight. Lucky, we landed safely in Krabi.

         Soon, we cleared the customs but forgotten about the luggage. Lucky, when we reached outside, we saw the tour representative, he held a note in the hands showing, " Welcome, Chong Heng Wei ".
I was so happy to see him except for having my name misspelled. I even handshake with him, his name is Mr. Tee.

         I told him that we forgotten our luggage, he quickly speak to the Airport Staff. They allowed me to re-enter the area to collect our luggage. I quickly collect the luggage and went out.

         Mr. Tee directed us to the carpark whereby he will fetch us to the hotel. Along the way, we chatted and he introduced us to some special programmes. We agreed on the price of six thousand plus baht ( Cannot Remember ). It rained quite heavily but we stopped over for a short while to get some drinks at their convenience store. Soon, we reached our hotel, it's name is Pakasai Resort. When we reached, I was so anxious, the hotel staff offered us some drinks. It was very tasty. They asked for my credit card, I was so anxious, but later they calmed me down citing that it will not be deducted unnecessary.

         After we checked into our hotel room, we got ourselves settled down and rest for a while. They gave us Free WiFi, initially I didn't log in but a few days later I tried but cannot log in. After that, we went down to the hotel lobby to wait for Mr. Tee to fetch us to the Krabi City for the first day of programme. But we got the wrong timing as Krabi is slower by one hour to Singapore time. We went back to our hotel room and waited. We went down the second time but Mr. Tee is late. The Tour Executive which Mr. Tee wrote on the itinerary notes came to fetch us instead. We chatted for a while in the car and my mom guessed that she is Mr. Tee's wife and my mom is right. After a while, she suggested a cheap place to eat. She went to fetch Mr. Tee who is waiting for us in Krabi City. My mom and I told them that we wanted to eat at that cheap place where Mr. Tee's wife suggested. Soon, they dropped us there. Upon reaching there, We den know it was hotpot. My mom seems to be abit disappointed. Mr. Tee's wife told us they will fetch us back after our meal at a certain time.

          This is a picture of a dog resting at the restaurant --->

         After our meal at the restaurant, Mr. Tee came to fetch us to the Krabi City for night shopping. We didn't buy much things except for some tibits. Their shopping central at Krabi City closes quite early compared to our shopping at Singapore.

         After our shopping, we were tired and Mr. Tee brought us back to the hotel. We bid goodbye and he says he will come fetch us tml morning.

         This is a comfortable sitting area in the hotel room, how I wish I had this furniture ( It is very good for reading magazines and books ) --->

 

 

        After a while, we rested in the hotel room. I woke up early and asked mom to watch the sunrise with me. She agreed !!!~~~ :O)

 

        Here are the photos --->

Here is mom near the sea ( Picture Above )

 

 

        We were abit disappointed when there is no sunrise. We checked with Mr.Tee the next day, He said got sunset but no sunrise here in Krabi.

        We waited for a while and went for our first day breakfast. The staff there even made a special egg shape for me. I regret not tipping her.

        Here is a picture before we reached the breakfast area ( The Rooster very cute hor ) --->

         After our breakfast, we were ready for our programme. Mr. Tee came to fetch us to the Tiger Cave Temple for Sightseeing around.

          Here are the photo we took --->

          After that, Mr. Tee's wife took over and fetch us to the Hot Spring Waterfall. When we reached there, we were not asked to pay for the entrance tickets as the staff there said that it rained earlier on and the water quality is not good, so that's why they are not charging us.

         We still went in and play with the water for a while. When we are on our way out, Mr. Tee's wife is like walking very fast. Then upon reaching the car, she said she stomachache. We waited for a while and she came back.

          Soon, she fetched us to the Emerald Pool. But upon reaching there, I passed her some medicated oil. She applied some and thanked me. Then we had lunch before going to the Emerald Pool. Unfortunately, it rained heavily soon after. It was a long walk to the Emerald Pool ( About 45 minutes !!! ) After that, she fetched us back to the hotel. :O)

          ( 3rd Day ... 15th of July 2015 A.D. )

          On the 3rd Day, we wake up early and went for breakfast as usual. After breakfast, we went back to our hotel room. Later, we came down to the hotel lobby for that day's special programme. ( We were late !!! ) They came in a mini van and went around some different hotels to fetch a few other people. Our first stop at Ao Nang Beach. After that, we depart from Ao Nang Beach and head for James Bond Island.

         Here are some photos we took at James Bond Island --->

          After our experience at James Bond Island, We went back to the boat. Look at what we saw before arriving at the big ship near Hong Island --->

See people Canoeing near Hong Island ( Picture Above )

 

 

        After our stopover at the big ship near Hong Island, they ferry us to Pan Yi Island for our great and sensational seafood lunch. We went shopping on Pan Yi Island after our lunch. After that, they ferry us back to Ao Nang Beach.

 

        We headed to Lot Yai Cave soon after. Here's some pictures inside the Cave --->

 

 

 

          Here's some interesting pictures outside the Lot Yai Cave --->

            Here's me feeding some doves --->

 

 

          After our fun at Lot Yai Cave, we went back to the mini-van. The tour guide asked us whether we want to go to some Mini Waterfall. She mentioned she received news that the Mini Waterfall might be closed due to bad weather. We voted to go ahead but was disappointed when we reached there and found out it was still closed due to bad weather.

 

         After that, the tour guide fetched us back to our hotel. Only the first stop guest gave the tour guide tips. My mom and I reached our hotel but didn't gave tips ( My mom told me not to give too ).

 

         We ended our 3rd Day trip !!!~~~ Wait Wait Wait, forgot to add in during 2nd & 3rd day, night the time, my mom and I went for full body massage. We gave tips on the 3rd day but commended the 2nd day massage was better.

 

         One thing to add on also, Mr. Tee didn't managed to tell us what time to fetch us to airport tml. However, we later got it settled.

 

         ( 4th Day ... 16th of July 2015 A.D. )

 

         We went for our final day breakfast as usual and got ready for our flight. Mr. Tee's wife came to fetch us to airport. My mom later gave her some tips, the tips could have been better ... My mom commended the service was not so good as we had to wait for Mr. Tee and his wife a couple of times.

 

         After that, we took the flight back to Singapore. This time it was a smooth ride. On the way back home, we took the taxi the time, we chatted with the taxi driver, he mentioned he need to work very hard as his wife got cancer. I felt sad for him. When I reached home the time, I asked my mom whether she got gave tips to the poor Uncle. She said no as they are too many poor people in Singapore, how many can she help.

 

        With this, I shall end my writing here, See you soon. :O)





08 / 01 / 2014 A.D.

                      Hello Peeps, Sorry, it has been a long time since I blog. Today must surely blog

 

because something special happened today. Yesterday ( 07/01/2014 A.D. Tuesday ), book

 

appointment to meet new friend, Su Hooi on today ( 08/01/2014 A.D. Wednesday ).

 

                      So excited until cannot sleep. I went to eat supper until met a patient from IMH at the

 

coffeeshop near my house at Block 103. He mentioned that he also cannot sleep well. He also

 

mentioned that he had skipped his medication for some time as he had run out of his medicine. He

 

said that he do not know how to go to the clinic at IMH to collect his medicine and see doctor.

 

                      I offered to help him and decided to bring him to the clinic. I decided to send him there

 

during the wee morning as I am meeting Su Hooi later at 2 pm. I told the Uncle to wait for me at the

 

coffeeshop while I bath and get changed at my house. I was worried that he might not be around at

 

the coffeeshop when I get ready, as a result, I bathed quickly and rushed through everything.

 

                     Fortunately, he was still around when I went back to the coffeeshop. Upon meeting him

 

again, he commented that it was still very early. I agreed and told him that I shall go and check the

 

balance of the EzLink Card and will return shortly.

 

                    Unfortunately, he was not around this time round when I return back to the coffeeshop. I

 

went to search for him but to no avail. Soon, I gave up and went back home to rest. I fall asleep and

 

woke up at around 1.50 pm. Luckly still in time to meet Su Hooi. I called her immediately to ask

 

where she was.

 

                    She said she was reaching Choa Chua Kang MRT Station soon. I told her to call me later

 

when she reached Choa Chu Kang MRT Station while I get ready for her arrival. I was late and was

 

in a rush to receive her at Petir LRT Station.

 

                    After that, I fetched her from Petir LRT Station and walked her to my house. Soon, we

 

reached at my house. I invited her into my house and offered her a glass of orange juice. As we were

 

abit short of time, I asked her to my room to discuss more about making videos while showing her

 

some of the videos which I had made from PowerPoint.

 

                    She showed me some of her works and we were almost done. I invited her to join me for

 

a drink at Starbucks at Bukit Panjang Plaza ( BPP ). Soon, we left my home and head to BPP. I told

 

her that I am treating her a drink and asked her what she want to drink. She said she was okay to

 

drink the same type of drink which I will be choosing.

 

                  I ordered Frappuccino® Blended Coffee with low fat and whipped cream on top. We

 

chatted for some time and soon she suggested to go shopping at BPP. We went aimlessly until I

 

brought her to The Arcade ( TimeZone ). We played a few games, I was very happy when I won the

 

Jackpot tickets for one of the interactive arcade game.

 

                 I brought her around, sometimes go toilet sometime buy food and/or drinks and then she

 

suggested sending me home. I was embarrassed as it was not nice for a gal to send a guy home

 

especially on the first date. So I planned to let her send me back home but actually end up I will send

 

her back home. My plan finally failed when I only managed to send her till Lot One Shopping Mall.

 

We hang around Lot One having food and drinks and of course using the toilet and playing arcade.

 

               I soon head for the Choa Chu Kang Bus Interchange after failing to follow her to send her

 

back home into the Choa Chu Kang MRT Station. I initially want to straight away take Bus Service

 

190 back home but later thinking of going Qian Hu to buy fish ( Puffer Fish ). But I walked around

 

going to buy drink and go toilet too long until missed the free shutter bus service. So I quietly went

 

back to queue for the bus until I saw a BPGHS school boy in front of me. I chit chat with him for a

 

while and later thank him for having the chat with him. Soon, we boarded the bus but sit away from

 

each other. =)

 

                 Lastly, I want to comment that Su Hooi is more chio in person. Here's photo to prove ...

 

Plus this is my favourite photo of her.

 

 

 

See you guys soon !!!~~~ :O)

               Hello Peeps, Long time no see. Sorry for the delay in my update. Today is 4th of May 13", but I'm talking about my Genting Trip on the 20th of January 13".

 

               On the way to Genting, nothing happens much except when we reached Genting Highlands. One of the stall selling fried " Kway Tiew " ( Sorry, dun know how to spell ), his business is good as the " Kway Tiew " which he cooked tasted great ~ :O) ... I was lazy to queue up to buy the Chicken Hot dog bun at the same stall so I briefly but yet politely ask the Uncle whether I need to queue up as I am not buying " Kway Tiew ".

 

               He replied both rudely and sarcastically that just because I am a Singaporean, I am not privileged to skip the queue. It is hard to describe unless you hear it yourself. You will be half as pissed off as me when he gave that comment.

 

               Now talk about happy thing. 3 events back to back. Firstly, watching a movie Directed by Jack Neo, entitled, " Taxi Taxi ". I was too tired after playing till late at the casino at the first night, so I dozed off for short durations during the movie.

 

               After this, went to play Motion Master, Haunted Mine. But the previous ride, Little Prince was more fun !!!~~~ :O)   If I never remember wrongly, after the Little Prince ride, me and my Elder Sister took some photos.

 

               Here's one --->  

 

 

                 After a while, me and my Elder Sister went up some other rides.

 

 

       Here's some photo ---> 

Overall, it was a joyful trip to Genting Highlands ~ :O)

           See you guys next time ~ :O)



28 / 01 / 2013 A.D.

          Hello guys, I am abit late on this post as I am talking about what happened on my Genting Trip which is on the 20th of January 2013 A.D.

 

          Just before the trip ( 19th of January ), I had worked overtime with my new job. I came back home late, yet thinking whether to go straight to bed or skip my sleep in exchange for a well prepared trip. Before I can decide, I did not realised that I had fallen asleep.

 

          Next morning, Surprisingly, almost everyone woke up late. I tried not to mess things up if I got excited. So, I kept calm and speed things up nicely. I pack up my bag swiftly yet at the same time, trying to avoid forgetting things that need to be packed.

 

          Soon, We were all ready and we made our way to Bukit Panjang Plaza ( BPP ) to board the tour bus to our destination. Everyone in the tour group came on time and we set off to the customs without delay.

 

           Everything at the customs came smoothly and here, we are all happily on our way to Genting !!!~~~ :O)

 

            I shall talk more about the trip in another post or in a new Blog that allows me to post pictures together with the post.

 

            See you guys !!!~~~ :O)

17 / 12 / 2012 A.D.

 

           Today iS 17th of December 2012 A.D. but I'm going tO blOg abOut what happened on my mom's birthday which is on 15th of December 2012 A.D.

 

            But first a little update about last blog entry about Uncle Mano. So, I though Uncle Mano started work after I helped him but something went wrong.

 

            After calling up Uncle Vachi, he told me that the Cleaning Express Company did not call him up. I plan to ask the CC staff Aslan for help to check what happen.

 

            I have yet to approach Aslan. If Aslan could not get a response from Cleaning Express Company, I shall approach the Bukit Panjang Plaza ( BPP )'s Cleaning Express Company staff there. Final approach is the office of Cleaning Express Company. I shall let you guys know about the outcome soon.

 

            Now, to blog about my mom's birthday. I remember I used to have my National Service ( NS ) Enlistment on 15th of December during her birthday last time when I am young. Ok, back to her birthday that day. I gave her a S$50.00-/ the night before her Birthday ( 14th of December 2012 A.D. ) when she was playing FaceBook in my room on our Family computer.

 

            The next day, we took Bus Service 700 and alight at the Bus Stop directly above Newton MRT Station. We continue our journey by taking the train which is one stop away. We alighted at Novena MRT Station and went through Face2Face section, up the escalator and arrived right in front of our destination restaurant. We have booked 3 seats at Zhou's Kitchen.

 

            We still have plenty of time, so me and Elder Sister went up to fourth floor to say hi to my Boss, Simon. After some short chats, we are just in time for going to Zhou's Kitchen.

 

             Speaking of time, I just had my watch which I usually wear to work in a defeative condition. So, as a result, I wore the Gold watch which reminds me of my dad. I knew before hand that the battery for the Gold watch is used up. I forgot about it when I wore it to mom's Birthday and kept asking Elder Sister for the time.

 

             Now, Speaking of food at Zhou's Kitchen, it was warm, the perfect temperature to gobble the sumptuous finger food. I remember myself " kpkb " throughout the meal and commenting on the food. But almost all the comments are positive ones. :O)

 

             After the sumptuous meal, Mom made her way to Bugis while me and Elder Sister went to catch our movie at Farrer Park Station ( City Square ). We arrived early and went to shop around, as well as catching a glimpse of the Chuggington's show.

 

             We watched, " The Hobbits - An Unexpected Journey " and truly enjoyed it. We made our way back home feeling tired but fruitful.

12 / 09 / 2012 A.D.

            Hello Peeps, Long time nO blog. Today, I want to share a joyous happening. Today, I suddently craving to help out the Indian Uncle who hang around near my block coffee shop idling around. I wore my PAYM T-shirt and tried to dress more simple so as not to fighten him. I quietly approached him and asked him whether I can take the seat beside him. He politely offered me the empty seat.

 

             I quickly introduced myself as the volunteer from the Community Club's Youth Group. I told him I am there to help him. I asked him whether he is looking for a job or trying to find a house to stay. After some clarification, he pointed out that he wants a job badly.

 

             I told him I need his name and contact number in order to help him. He promptly passed me his photocopied Identification Card without delay. I do not want to make it like he is obligated to present his identification to me and told him to verbally tell me his name and contact number. But his haste actions stopped me.

 

             I took down his details and told him I will hand over his details to the Community Club ( CC ). I told him to wait for me to get back to him.

 

             Upon reaching the CC, I approached the PA Youth In Charge to follow up for any updates. He told me there are no updates and there are no form to sign. We briefly discussed on ongoing projects and got updated.

 

              As the discussion with the PA Youth In Charge, Luk Yi Ping, ended disruptly, I moved on to the next agenda. I need to help the Indian Uncle, Mr. Manoharan. Luk informed me about a job fair which is happening exactly today and he directed me to the person in charge of the job fair, Azlan. Azlan cleared some of the major obstacles which I need to get over in order to get close to the representatives of the job fair. I took the chance to ask some enquires on behalf of Uncle Manoharan ( Mano ).

 

               Uncle Mano. is uncomfortable about dressing shabbily in his T-shirt and shorts for this interview at the job fair. The job fair representatives assured me that it is all right and I pass the good news to Uncle Mano.

 

               When I look for him to tell him the good news, he wants me to call his Nephew In Law to give him a comfort zone. I called his Nephew In Law, Rachi and assured both parties that they are in good hands.

 

               After I calmed Uncle Mano. down, I brought him personally over to the CC. It was my first time helping a resident in this matter and I finally succeed by being calm. The full interesting details of the interview shall be shared only between me and Uncle Mano. and I wished him all the best in getting the job.

 

               I shall pen again when something happening comes along ~ :O)

 

17 / 06 / 2012 A.D.

Hey guys, today is Sunday liao, but I'm blogging about what happened on 16th June 2012 A.D. ( Saturday ).

Today ( Saturday ), I went out with mom and Elder Sister to NorthPoint. The purpose of the visit is to help Simon do dispatch for Shine's YN ( Yishun ), and as well as to do some shopping at NorthPoint. Mom wanted to buy a new belt for me but I refused as I felt uncomfortable about spending on this. Since the old belt is not beyond repair, I felt that buying a new belt is a waste of money.

My Elder Sister and me arrived at NorthPoint before mom and we went to look for a nice place to eat later when mom arrives. We agreed mutually on the Japanese FoodCourt as our choice for eating later.

Mom disagree with the decision and we end up eating KFC. After our meal, mom wanted to source for my new belt. I tried to play along by entertaining her, yet what I want is a cheap belt if I really need to buy a new one.

End up look all over the market for shops selling belts but to no avail. Halfway through the search, aNn called and my thoughts to meet her arised. The mission to buy a new belt was a failure and end up mom and Elder Sister went back first while I plan to meet up aNn.

aNn finally met up with me and we quickly went to Yishun 10 to buy movie tickets. I didn't find any nice movie to watch and we cancelled watching movie. After that, We just wonder around aimlessly. Some of the places we went are, Popular, TimeZone, etc. I bought some things which concerns about her work with me.

We even took cab to Sembawang Shopping Centre and bought some items from, Daiso, Giant, and among other F&B shops. However, due to overspending, we got no budget to take cab back to Yishun and thus waited for the Free Shutter Service back to NorthPoint.

Upon reaching Yishun, We went back to play at the TimeZone Arcade. aNn got 12 tickets and I got around 22 tickets as a challenge on who wins the most tickets. She seems pissed off when playing our last driving game whereby the people involved in the multi-player connected driving game, actually played in a nasty way whereby aNn got offended. I was displeased also.

Den we took the lift to Shine's YN ( Yishun ), and I tried to settle what I promised Simon, but end up Andy didn't answer the call as I need to ask him some details. So, I took the chance to duplicate a Disney key for aNn since she suggested it.

After closing the shop, I accompany aNn to the Yishun Bus Interchange and queue up together with her until she board her bus. Later, I took Bus Service 171 back home after bidding Goodbye to aNn while she board her bus.

I reached home call aNn to talk to her for a while. Soon, we end the call after a fruitful night and tml got RC kiteflying event @ 7 am. So I tried to keep awake until 7 am and took the chance to blog while I have spare time.
