Enjoying myself





Thanks to my exam period, i managed to enjoy the long Labour Day weekend. Only need to be back to work on Wednesday.

Went on a road trip to MAlacca with Derek and friends. We had 3 cars with 9 of us hitting the North South highway.It took us more than two and a half hours to reach this small town. Max speed? 160km/hr. Min speed? less than 10km/hr- jam due to road works. The trip there was fun because I am not the driver, while Derek was driving through the rain, the sun and rain. I was busy snacking and taking short naps. We set off after lunch and when we reached,it was already around 5pm. We took a walk around St Paul hill, took pictures ..saw the famous windmill because of the Portugal history there. Our search for the Famous Nonya restaurant begin when it was close to dinner. Ww walked and walked, asking the locals for directions. Finally around what I felt was damm long (an hour for walking?), we found the place, feeling tired, hot and sticky. Restaurant BiBIk Neo!We ordered lot, ate alot and to me who is one that is not very picky about food- it all taste the same so its doen't matter whether it is famous anot. Except for those really lousy food which I can still tell.. After dinner, we went to the night market for some shopping. Its was 12 midnight when we left Malacca, another 2 and a half hours drive back to Singapore. I especially enjoyed the trip back with the many stars shinning up in the sky.it was just a beantiful sight, we dont get to see in Singapore night. Using the second link really helps, no causeway jam to worry about. But we got stuck at the checkpoint, the officers wanted to do a thorough check on our car, took out everything for them. Everything went on well and fine and by the time we cleared, it was 3.41am.


Back to studying,I had cleared two papers, now I am left with the final one on Monday,8 May. I am so eager to know my results... I know my stats isn't going to be good.its going to be a long wait to 6 Jun. By then, baby's birthday will be round the corner. I must quickly request for my off on that DAY!!
Planning for my block leave for July and October.Hopefully, nothing will crop up at work because we are planning for our next family trip to Australia or Korea.( still deciding)

Another long weekend is coming, thanks to the polling Day, 6 MAy is made a Public Holiday which is also my sister's birthday!! Going to pig out at SAkura- the new outlet at Science Center, we are celebrating Mother's Day in advance for this occasion as well ,so baby, you must come along k. This is going to burn a hole in LJ and my pocket with the presents for ML and mum and the dinner but its all worth it for the family.:)
