[SPONSORED TRIP] Nuffnang Evangelist Genting 2D1N Trip P1

Enough of procrastination & here I'm finally decided to blog about my fully sponsored trip to Genting!
WARNING V. V. V. V. LONG POST AHEAD!!

It was my very first trip as a blogger and I seriously thankgod that Mabel is going with me after hearing that I'm going too!
The meeting time was like 6AM at Golden Mile Complex, being a lazy bum, decided to stay-over at boyf house since it's nearer. I didn't have enough sleep previously because of the accident that happened and I guess that's the point; to survive a 7 hours bus ride without me dying is to knock out myself, therefore beside the rest stop & toilet break, most of the time I'm concuss, sleeping like a log. && Cheers that we reached Genting at 1PM! I applause myself (someone who couldn't even tolerate sitting buses for an hour) for surviving such a long journey!!
 
 The first 15min on bus, followed by the next moment after that. -SNORE-
 
Scenery on the way up & are you prepared for the coolest summer ever? Oh wait, it's Autumn now
-
Normally, when reached Genting we will put our baggage in hotel room right? But hell no, this time round the very first thing we going to do is...................... EAT !
 Visited 好友记(Restaurant Good Friends) for lunchieeeeeee <3 I guess I'm going to make everyone drool just by looking at the picture but IDC! -Evil laughter-
  Rating:
1. Ginseng Roots w Chicken
2. Steamed Marble Goby Fish
3. Steamed Free-range Chicken
4. Australia Asparagus w Lily Bulbs -
5. Spare Ribs w Chef's Sauce -
6. Home-made Soya Bean-curd w Crab Egg Sauce
7. Crispy Lo Mei Chi
8. Honeydew Sago
Overall: ✔✔✔
Restaurant food is considerably alright, however the atmosphere is good for family to dine together.
All rating are based on personal preferences, seriously I think I can't cut up to be a food bloggers because I'm very picky in food & there are too many food that I can't eat and don't try ): 
 -
 After food we head back to our hotel room to unpack luggage & it's free and easy time for us.
Firstly, before entering my room I half expecting it to be that kind of small room since it's was sponsored but check out my awesome room!!
 
THERE IS A BATHTUB (which I never get to used it) & A FRIDGE (sadly, I also never get to used it)!
 First thing I normally do after entering hotel room is, JUMP ONTO MY AWESOME BED AND ROLL A FEW TIMES! Lucky Mabel is my roommate, if not it's going to be awkward :x
-
After unpacking awhile, like 30minutes, we met up with other bloggers to explore Genting. Like Hello? We didn't traveled 7 hours ride up just to chill in our own room! Firstly we went to get some phone card so I can use internet ): I miss boyf so much even though it's like just few hours apart. Followed by going to explore Ripley's Believe It or Not! I've been to Genting for countless time but it's my first time exploring it! It's more of a museum for photo taking and exploring, it's not any haunted place or whatsoever so no worries and explore it when y'all go Genting! Not going to post pictures because there is just too many artifact, therefore I shall keep the suspension & let you guys experience it yourself.

Too bad we didn't go Casino, maybe we will win big bucks?
 -
After exploring Ripley's, it's time for DINNER!
It seems like a blink of an eye, and here we are heading for dinner already.
 We went to 名人( Ming Ren Restaurant) Ming Ren's "Lamb Specialty Cuisine"
I'm super duper sad, because I don't eat my own kind (Zodiac: Goat)
I drink goat's milk however I don't eat any lamb related food.

Welcome to the 美女桌: Beauties' Table
Everyone signed off with their name & blog and started taking pictures.

 & with this, we ended our dinner & continue with free and easy roaming.

 As I said earlier on, we didn't come here to chill in the room, therefore we went out to explore again! Wanted to book KTV room but it's fully booked #sadface
 We ended up in a bowling alley! & it glows in the dark. I seen it from outside many times, and it's my first time inside it!

We did not end our night after bowling even though it's already 1plus. We went to Starbucks before chatting in Jowey & Jasmine's room, and followed by continuing chatting at me & Mabel's room. In between Amanda went back room to sleep already ): We chat until 6 or so, which I think it's quite amazing since we didn't really have enough sleep.
With only 1.5 hours left to morning's breakfast, I can't bathe in the awesome bathtub nor could I snuggle in my bed long enough but Genting's temperature is so much better than having air-con!
&& There goes my first day in Genting!

Picnic By The Bay

Saw the promotion advertisement where you get chance to attend picnic by the bay when you purchase a tube of Pronamel, and so I did. Mad happy when I've won myself a pair of tickets! Excited that I'm going to see Anthony Neely up close! HELLO HANDSOME!


As stated above in the promotion poster, there's a picnic basket with 2 box of salad, 2 pack of sandwiches, 2 packets of Ribena (idk why it's called fruit juice when it's not really one), 4 different types of oranges and 2 apples, and it's ALL FREE (:
There are people making ice cream, two flavors - oreo and cream & strawberry but we took both oreo and cream and it's heavenly. I think maybe because oreo tasted good in any kind of edible forms.
Chef making salad, when we already have salad, is not really helping, should have demonstrate some other food instead. And last but not least, ANTHONY NEELY. He is really cute because of his ABC look and he sang a few song. There are lucky draw as well but the prize is getting his autographed CD and chance to take Polaroid with him. I think it's not a really suitable prize because there are like 60%  family kind, 20% his fans while 20% is like us Gen Y. Not everyone would be really happy getting those prizes though, and most of those that won are uncles :l and woops for the blurry picture of A.N

1st M♥nthsary

HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY FIRST MONTHSARY L♥VE
Many people might be thinking that it's only the first month that kind of thing but we already had four years of base friendship so it feels like we've been together for more v long rather than a month. Fate is really good at toying people, it took us four years, turning a big round before we come back to each other again.
Anyway on this special day, I decided to cook for him, the previous round cooking was actually practicing. Even though saying I'm cooking for him, but he helped out with me in the kitchen, in fact he can cook too. However, menu quite similar because I just started to learn how to cook :l I feel so proud about my cereal prawn, though it's my first time cooking but it tasted awesome and I didn't buy those instant mix, I did it from scratch.

 MENU:
1. Corn Soup
2. Steam Egg with Minced Meat
3. Stir-fried Cabbage
4. Steamed Fish
5. Cheese Tofu
6. Cereal Prawn - MY FAVORITE

 
Lastly, the surprise for him ~
 
He has been waiting for the chance to indulge in my famous(among some friends and family) Oreo Cheesecake! So decided to bake one for him before he enlist in a week ):
HAPPY FIRST MONTHSARY AGAIN ♥

Work - THE NEW PAPER BIG WALK 2012

As stated above, I'm actually working for THE NEW PAPER BIG WALK 2012. Job starts at 5.30, had to share cab at 4.30 with Eileen & her boyf under her block. I would have been late had she not morning called me. The job was quite simple, to teach people how to download and use the QR Code to participate in the games event. After the walk started, we got ferried to Marina Barrage to give out prizes to participants and  hand out drinks for each of them. We had so much drinks that we gave them 3 bottles each, and it's not simply plain water, sponsors includes yeo's and red-bull. Imagine at the end when almost 90% has gone and we left more than 3 pallets of red-bull left. We started giving up 1 packet of 6 until at the end we gave out cartons by cartons LOL. as long as they can take it, we give them. & guess what, I hand carried, actually it's more of dragged 1.5 cartons(36cans) from Marina Barrage to my boyf's house at Kovan. Almost died, but I totally love this job! I didn't even have time to look at my watch, but the only sad thing about it was, I've gotten myself sunburn ): UNDER THE DAMN SUN FOR MORE THAN 3 HOURS, AND WAIT I FORGOT TO MENTION, WE'RE AT THE TOP OF MARINA BARRAGE, I WAS SWEATING ALL MY BB CREAM & I FORGOT TO BRING SUNBLOCK x_x /MELTZ But nevertheless it was still fun working with friends! OH & many goodie bags at the end of the day! #happygirl91
