Of Trains, Crocos & DJs

I really dun know what's wrong with blogspot's picture uploading tool - sometimes it doesnt load, and then the next thing I know the spacing is all wrong. Simple "entering" on the keyboard doesnt seem to work.

Anyway, here's a selection of some of the pictures taken in Guangzhou in late July! Will post up somemore soon la.

















SATAN Spelt Backwards

Went to WCG today to check out the Singapore Finals, but I was kinda lost in the whole she-bangs. Ended up at the NATAS Fair on Level 6 instead. Heard so much about this annual fair (in fact I am not sure it they told this twice a year or once?). Decided to check it out myself - it had throngs of people!



The whole set up like very cheapskate lah.



Then I saw Hard Rock Cafe Bali calling out to me. Check out the bloody swimming pool - it's heaven!! I wanna go!!



Europe, America, China - everywhere also got tours!



NSW - Sydney as well!



And of course, thousands were also signing up for Japan tours.



Hey ... wait! What're these people queuing for again? Free sushi??



Alamak! They's queueing up the check out the super VIP coach! I reckon it's the best best for going to KL. Luxurious!



These people sit on the seats lagi like really going KL like that.



Maybe I will try booking this bus the next time. No more puduraya! No more bus sekolah!



And of course, the India booth had to impress visitors with a temple like set up. But the yucky posters and brocheres all over the place spolit the look.



Winter holiday?? Soon I hope. Enough of sweating like a pig everytime go on holiday. Anyway, I didnt sign up for anything. Guess I am still at the stage of my life in which I prefer backpacking and self-discovery free and easy holidays. Dun like tours la.

Luscious Beauty



I just found out the prices for a Tiger Airways flight to Ho Chi Min and it's only $50 bucks more than a flight to Bangkok!

New Destination: Vietnam! Now to get the Lonely Planet. If I can have 5 days there, where should I go to?

iPod nano


In case you haven't already heard - I guess not - everyone's talking about it.

Just amazing how an announcement from Apple gets everyone so worked up - wonder why there isn't the same effect with Creative's announcements. I guess Creative's no way near that cult status brand yet.

Got to start saving money now - I want the black 4 GB version!

Jetstar!

Just had a sudden urge to plan my next holiday; seems 27th October - 31st October looks like a good period to get out of Singapore because of the Deepavali holiday. Hopefully they'll be no events to keep me here!

I was thinking of Bangkok (I have NEVER been to Bangkok before in my life); but actually I would like to go to somewhere with a cooler weather. Then again, I have some budget to stick with; otherwise I have to be eating bread for the rest of October till November.

I have already checked out the return flight prices between Air Asia, Jet Star & Tiger Airways. ValueAir cannot make it, can't even churn out the results for me. Anyway, the prices border around $190 - $210, so not much difference.


Maybe I will go for another holiday in December to that 'colder city'.

So, who wants to go with me to Bangkok??
