Journey To The West
Going to place which had been a long time since I went there. That is what I did today. Met Afiq and Sabri at Boon Lay interchange. Reached there at 3. Sabri's time of arrival - 3:14:40 . Who's late now huh? He is our tour guide for today. Must say he did quite well. At least we are not lost. So guys, if you wanna hire a tour guide, he may not be the ideal one but still he knows his job. I suggest a pay around 120 bucks should be enough for him.First stop : Jurong Point. We did not do much things there. Walk around the place. The tour guide's explanation and brief description of every shop was a boredom. So, as a highly trained ninja, I decided to vanish out of his sight without him knowing. The stealth technique is quite difficult to do but useful. Slowly..fading...away...SUCCESS!!! Than, saw this ' Crab Palace ' which I believe most of the consumers there are Samurai. As to avoid conflict and being stab by their sharp, mighty sword, I did not enter the place. Maybe next time I will catch that big crab and cook it. An empty car tank needs fuels to move. I decide to go to a more family kind of place to eat, which is 'Banquet'. There is where I meet Afiq and the tour guide. All along they did not realize I was missing ! awesome. Fill our stomach with sumptuous meal. BUURRPP! Now that shows that we are full. Second stop : Chinese Garden. Had a 'walk to remember' from Jurong Point to Chinese Garden.One of us just could not stand the long, endless walk. ' Guys, just go on without me. Save yourself ' , those were the words that came out of his mouth before he faint. As a good friend, we could not just leave him there.So, we carried him until we reach our destination. The lake breeze was great!! Nice place. To those who want to swim there, you are most welcome but do not forget to bring along a life jacket, just in case. When reached our destination, the medic was there and sent the casualties to the nearest place to rest, which is at Clementi. The two strong survivor carry on with their plan. There was feeling of relief as we see the 'Gate of Babylon' drew nearer. BUT WAIT !! It was lock ! We do anything we can think of but the huge, metal bar gate just would not open. Maybe should have ask Synyster, master of all Gates, to open it up for us. Lady luck was totally drifting away from us. The weather was not on our side too. Third Stop : Science Center. Woah, the last time I went there was during Secondary 2. Long time. Few things have change. The science stuff inside really made me want to be a scientist. Inside, there is this new invention that amaze me. It is the 'Time Machine'. I know a lot of you guys sure want that machine. I try it once, and guess what, I went back 160 million years ! That was when the dinosaurs was still alive. The dinosaurs were humungous. Try my best to keep myself alive but manage to take some pictures with the dinosaur. Finding the time machine was pain-in-the-ass but found it finally. Back to year 2008, thank god. Next, went to the Omni Theatre. The show was about Dinosaurs. Nice. The way they made it 'bring-to-life' was totally awesome. The thrill haven't reach the level of taking the rollercoster, maybe one-fifth of that.Last stop : IMM. Just bought a shirt to rep up the day. Was quite tired, well who wouldn't after all that adventure. Wanna thank the tour guide of the west side, Mr.Sabri. Enjoyed myself even though there are some unexpected things happen + did not see Miss V. I wanna go see fireworks later. Who wanna follow ?? Msg/call me
