ZHUHAI.

lets continue with my trip in may july. (omg. when is this gg to end with my slow poke blogging skills?)

thank god. i didnt take photos in china! i honestly find no mood to take photos anyway!

Photobucket

IN MACAU. my 4th time in Macau! this is so crazy. i wanted to go fisherman wharf and take photos, but i nv succeeded. LOL. go 4 times alr, still no chance to go leh. this is really so WTF. seriously.

cause it was drizzling that day. and i don want to risk my lens getting soaked in water. LOL.

i think i visited all the major casinos in Macau alr leh. LOL.
here galaxy hotel! which opens in May. XX and i wanted to go there, but we didnt have the time. xx is tired after not slping for a day. LOL. (note to self, nv take 6am flights. 0.O)

how can woman be so pretty. 0.O
Photobucket

Photobucket
other than that, galaxy hotel nth to see de.

just go venetian hotel la. you will go, WAH WAH WAH by the decorations.
its SOPHISTICATED, LIKE A PIECE OF ART.

i wonder how much they spend on the decorations! LOL.

head towards ruins of st paul.
and stop by my favourite restaurant! ; Wong chi kei restaurant in Macau.

Photobucket
this is taken in may.

BUT! this restaurant received some very famous reviews from someone, its packed to the brim when i went in July.. the queue was super duper mega long.

my bro waited for 1 hour for a seat during the weekend. 0.O
we waited for 20 mins during weekdays.

咖喱牛腩 rice
Photobucket
awesome. i still love it. despite eating so many times. LOL.

don order noodles dishes hor, not very nice.
but rice dishes served by them is usually very nice. (:
if you wanna order anything, order it with rice.

erm, i ordered some prawn rice with egg 2 yrs ago. and it was very nice!

Photobucket
some squid dish my papa order. don order k! it wasnt very fresh. 0.O

IN ZHU HAI. (stay in yong tong hotel! i stay there 3 times alr.)

(Singaporeans do not need visa to go from macau to zhu hai. Malaysians need to purchase visa to enter zhu hai from Macau. ($60 SGD for one entry. it will cost more for multiple entries. do get your visa done before gg. i think its $100 sgd?)

things to do in zhu hai:
do medicure/pedicure if you want.

but! i am not a fan of colouring my nails. cause, i find it a hassle to remove the colouring. (i don think i am a woman? which woman don like to colour their nails. LOL.)

i do for the sake of removing dead skin instead of adding colour to the nails. i coloured my nails cause, since do medicure so nice alr, don colour it, a bit liang fei. LOL.

dry skin = alot of dead skin.

you have no idea how much dead skin i have on my heels. they crack often and gosh, the next thing i know, i cant walk properly.

LOL.
so i got to do pedicure often. (i only do in JB though! much cheaper to do there than in sgp)

should you go china, go do pedicure. cost abt $3 SGD only. (excluding OPI. add $2 SGD for OPI.)
medicure cost abt $2 SGD.

BUT! if pedicure is not your kind of thing. but you wanna remove dead skin.

there is this new service in zhu hai. (and alot of other places in china. cause they have a lot of branches)

for $5 SGD, you get a foot & leg massage (super shiok) + nail cutting + remove your dead skin on your heels + a mini back and head massage too.

the entire session last for abt one hour.

they remove the entire white part of the nails. do not ask them to cut your nails if you are not comfortable with it. oh, they don use nail clipper de. they use a knife like thing. so amazing. LOL..

its a waste that i didnt managed to find this shop in may! LOL.
else my xx can go there for leg massage alr!

AND HOR, don think that massage in china all very dirty pls.
i did a consecutive 2 days of massage in shenzhen.
its 2 hours of solid full body massage for just $14. (!!)
don do = instant regret. LOL.
0.O
damn shiok de.

rmb to wash and cut hair in china!
for $4 you have a 45 mins head massage (damn shiok) + shampooing your hair + blow dry your hair.

$5 for cut/wash/blow hair. (no massage)

shop if you want! there can be some pretty good deals! (:

of course, rmb, quality clothes comes at a price. (:

i have reach a pt of stage in life that, chui clothes = wear for what.

there are alot alot of chiffon clothes that cost $3 (!!)-$7, but one look you know, the workmanship is coarse and not good. and there is no inner lining. not sure if this is the kind of cheap deals you find in bkk? but i honestly don think its worth to buy? maybe its just me la.

HAHA! i went overseas this time round without buying much for myself. (!!)
mama eagle like eyes are constantly looking at whatever thing i touched. 0.O

"YOU GOT ALOT OF CLOTHES AT HOME ALR! YOU GOT A LOT OF SHOES AT HOME ALR!"

i don want to go overseas with mama again. everything also cannot buy de. my money also cannot buy. LOL.
hence, i bought a lot of nonsense back. (non clothes related. LOLs.)

talking abt this. i wont buy from HH anymore.
HAHAHA.

i don think see how many how many of their piece there alr.
should they nv change the material/workmanship used, else, its honestly not worth to buy!
(if the material/workmanship used is the same, i am shocked by the kind of stocks they take in! HAHA.)

ok fine. maybe its a different supplier. HAHAH.

not trying to say that china has no good deals. there is, good quality ones. but, you got to pay for the price for the quality you are getting. logical right.

even though sometimes i wonder, who on earth can afford that?! like $40-$50 a dress. 0.O
i feel like telling them, "GO AND DIE. i am not a carrot."

with their standard of living, i cant help but wonder, the majority wont be able to purchase such clothes. (even with clothes that cannot bargain.)

still, i think the good quality ones, are still cheaper than Singapore la (if you know how to bargain!! just cut half.) HAHAHA.
just don get conned into buying them at a hefty price! (:

its very very easy for them to know you are Singaporean.
cause, its natural for us to speak in english + chinese UNKNOWINGLY.

to them, Singaporean = rich. (its X5 in money! $1 SGD = $5.21 RMB)
LOL.

things to eat:
hmm, from the zhu hai customs, take the escalator down to the underground mall. turn 90 degrees to your right.

walk towards the inner most right lane. thats the food lane.
restaurants are situated there.

there is this japanese restaurant called 一级棒寿司.
sells AWESOME FOOD.

was very skeptical abt ordering this sashimi.
cause, i am very very prone to liquify poo. HAHAHA. anything that goes into my mouth needs to undergo some very serious consideration of whether its clean and hygiene a not. 0.O

Photobucket
tested and proven by my weak stomach that it can be eaten.

and that big plate only cost $8 SGD. hahaha!!
it was on 50% off.

i tell you hor. ITS DAMN NICEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.

they nv clever you know. to ensure the sashimi is fresh, it was a big bowl of ICE below the sashimi. they put ice inside the bowl, wrapped it and put the sashimi on top!

but. the sashimi is so nice, it doesnt take long for us to clear it. LOL.

thats my mama's first japanese don. she nv like jap food.
but this don make her change her mind.

super nice leh! abt $5.50 SGD. i like love the rice.

yeah! onions! *steal all her onions*
Photobucket

thats my bro favourite food.
eel with sardine sauce. also damn nice. cost abt $5.50 SGD too.
Photobucket

just spend $100 RMB at the shop, and you get their membership card that entitles you 10% off the next time you visit them.
this restaurant is found in guang zhou too! (:

ok. i got 2 days to slack before i do my next entry!
omg.

its so hard trying to honour my promise. LOL.

so, i went for macau/china/hkg for a week.

i played for a week.
making myself so tired.

lol.
the bed at the hotel was way too hard.
its so hard, i thought i am slping on the floor.

but mama claimed the bed was way too soft, when we slept on the same bed.
0.o !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

tsk! but papa and bro said the bed was too hard to slp on anyway.

with H1N1 freaking everyone out, and my bro having a high fever + bad cough + everywhere pain, we were very worried indeed. HAHAHA.

the thing is, i spread the deadly cough virus to my brother, to my papa, and to my mama..
i didnt had fever, it turns out that my bro had the fever from the bad cough instead.

it totally freaked mama out.
cause my bro's fever didnt come down the entire night after seeing the doctor for injection.
so he went to see doctor twice over there.

HAHAHHAHAH!
i figured my bro's brain got further burned by the fever, and hence gotten stupider and hence, on par with me now. heh.

but all went well. (:
we are all H1N1 free. heh.

i didnt take alot of photos.
cause there is virtually nth to take in china.

so only photos in hkg and macau. (:

but its a great place to shop!
the first thing my papa told me was to return there next yr.

and i totally cant believe it.
he is typically ang moh-ish type, thanks to his english education. so he hates china.
but he tells me he wants to go there agn next yr. lol.

he is happy he got his tailor made suit and pants for just 80 bucks.
his working pants for 20 bucks.
his camp stuffs.
and he is super happy he managed to find an original columbia shirt for 6 bucks. where we cant see any defects. 0.o

but its defected goods la.just that, it wasn't noticeable to the naked eye.
cause he return sgp to questioned its authenticity. HAHA!

and i freaking brought home 17 kg of hello kitty boxes back. LIKE OMG.
i thought i got my back dislocated carrying them back. lol.

HAHAHAHHA!

we all board the night flight, with barely 30% of the ppl on the plane. thus, i got myself one row to lie down and slp. (:
Photobucket
mama forced me to wear mask on the flight, cause i was coughing as if i am gg to die. lol.

anyway! customs in china do close and slp for the night.
which shocked mama and i.

so we seek refuge at the airport departure hall. HHAHHA!

its 3 sgd for manicure and 5 sgd for pedicure.
