The Singapore Calligrapher welcomed us with tangan terbuka and polite smile. It makes us so touched! This talk was about the development of calligraphy and arts in both lands. Well, to be frank, it was really lame and made me fallen in sleep when listening to it. Haha.
jC, Qian Hui, and Oh baby~ :D
3 of us with the art piece from my beloved calligraphy teacher - Mr Lau.
Ker Neng and me with another calligraphy teacher - Mr Steven Lim.
Camwhore with Ker Neng the little hangsome boy.
Oh baby, jC and Ah Kang the humorous guy!

Tang Tang.....the art works from calligrapher. Never forget to mention the left bottom art piece is written by a 12 years old boy. Cool! :)
Writing on spot.
We then bid a farewell with the Teo Chiew Association and going to Tan Swie Hian Musuem. *Excited*
On the way there. A super nice and colourful building :)
jC with the impressive art work :)

*Dont tell me you dont know who is he?*
Zhao Cai sis, Ker Neng bro and jC
Check it out!!
He is Tan Swie Hian. The owner of this museum. The artist who produced so many great pieces of drawing. The person who is well-known as Sg top artist. He is so generous coz he gifted us 5 books and offered us to visit this museum. I like him! He is handsome and polite as well :)
Part of his drawing. Just PART of it.
I like this drawing the most. I like the shadow below. A boy and a girl. Seemed like a simple yet romantic love huh? :)
The second floor of the musuem. The floor is designed with the calligraphy he wrote. It is really special design.
Forgot to upload another plaque is given by Sg president- Mr Nathan. Now can you imagine how cool is this artist? haha.
With my new friend-Ah Kang's gf!! She is my senior too. Graduatee from IPG Ipoh from opsyen Math and now teaching in SJKC Endau. :)
Mr Tan Swie Hian not only draws, he writes too. My calligraphy teacher said this work is amazing coz the line of the works is fulled with energy and the structure is good.
Everybody back to Jb after this while I am the only one staying in Sg alone. Going to visit my relative. I am overwhelemed with bravery today. I was in a strange new place where I had never been to there, yet I walked to the nearest MRT station and walked to my relative's house alone. The musuem is at Sims Avenue which is in between Paya Lebar and Ajunied. I walked to Ajunied MRT station, took the train and went to the area where my relative stay - Eunos. As I said, Sg is really a safe country. You no need to worry your safety when you are walking alone. Besides, the transportation there is super duper convenient. You can go to anywhere you want with MRT or buses only with the prasyarat you know chinese or english and the most important element, MONEY! Yoy can just thumb a drive for taxi once you found you are lost. I LOVE this country so much!!!!!!! After meet up with daddy and brothers in the Eunos foodcourt and had my dinner, we took mrt to Bedok to search for new casing for my newly bought iPhone. I bought a chilli-red leather casing with $15 and 3 plastic casing with $10. They are damn cheap! My legs were fucking painful after walking for kilometers, so that is the end of my happy day.
The next morning, we went to Sentosa Island. I was so refusing to go there coz I went there before. But my brothers were so keen to visit there. 2:1. I was losed, so I had to go. Somehow, we just strolled around there coz the entrance ticket is damn expensive and we were short in time, so we just expericed the cable car with $26/ person. GOSH! My face turned so 'smelly' and black because I found it is really not worthy
Inside the cable car.
Casino!!
Universal Studio!!! I am so tiny in size. Haha.
I am so keen to visit. Make sure I will visit it next time with friends.
$66-$72, saving money from now.
The camwhore technique isnt that bad :P
woah!!
The view of the Universal Studio taken from cable car.
Back.
After visiting Sentosa Island, we went for shopping. The shopping mall is so enormous and fulled with branded things. I was lost there and couldnt find my daddy. And my legs were super painful! So I was annoyed and decided to back to Eunos from there again. Luckily I found them back. WTH!!! xO I couldnt find the essay books that I want from the Kinokuniya bookshop there. So we took a taxi to Parkway mall and still it was to no avail. Wasted our $10++ taxi fees. Ish ish ish. We gave up and back to home.
We asked our relative and went to Paya Lebar to search for the presence of Popular. Now only I know that reference books are only sold in Popular, but only novels are sold in other bookshops like Kinokuniya and Page 1 bookshop. Damn it! My bro and I spent $95.18 in buying books - O level and A level essay books for my need in preparing Muet exam and O level vocabulary exercises, Add math exercise for my bro and a Cambridge Grammar of English dictionary for our own improvement. I hope I wont waste the money and could really put it some effort in reading them to save my deteriorating broken english. :(
Btw, I was so keen to buy english novels!!! I was getting so excited when I saw books! Just like a shopaholic lady saw clothes and shoes, but I had to control myself and stop myself from buying them coz I havent finish the House of Night series from yy after one year borrowed from her. The novels are really cheap compared to Malaysia, $15.90 each and it is really thick. Too bad I couldnt own them, feel sorry to myself. I promise you, I will immediately hunt all of you books once I finished my collections at home. :)
Chat with my lao gor until 11pm and went to sleep. We chatted alot about her history of being a 'Sim-pu-kia' when she was just 12, married to a stranger and came to Sg. We also chatted about parts of my grandpa's history and I shed a tear when thinking back of him. Miss you, ah gong........T_T
jC with lao gor. She really looks like my grandpa!!!
jC, brothers and lao gor.
We were leaving at 11am and I knew lao gor was extremely sad. She kept asking me to stay back but I rejected coz I was paiseh to disturb her. I found she is pity and lonely, she is so rich and her house is so huge, but her children and grandchildren are all not staying with her. She is living alone, taking care of herself alone, nobody to talk with. I wish lao gor can be in the best of health!! I got no more ah gong and she is just like my grandma, I hope I could have the chance to drive her visiting Muar or visiting her in Sg more, accompany her to chat more. I know she really sayang us and I sayang her too. Ah gong, please bless your sister always...
Back to Muar at 5pm.
The new clothes for my new toy iPhone baby :P-END-
I *LOVE* Withery!! Though I had promised myself dont drink this too much, I still couldnt make it. I dont know what's so tasty about it, but I just Addicted to it!! :P
