17.11.09

Wednesday, met up with melvin at Somerset MRT station at 1215 supposedly, but he arrived at 1235 instead. We then proceeded to Cuppage Plaza for the mee pok i had many times when i was doin ma DC project at Orchard Central during the semester. After the mee pok, we went to our destination; MERITUS MANDARIN HOTEL! omg, its such a wonderful place, great facilities, service, everything like that.  This is the first time I have been in a 5-Star Hotel, although there were many occasions when  I stayed in a 4-Star Hotel.
When we entered our room, just nice the chambermaid was cleanin up the room. After depositing our bags, we went to the observation deck at the 38/39th floor. It is a restaurant which spans 2 levels; we settled down on the 39th floor. Initially I thought that it was a good place to study in future, since it was so quiet with very scenic views 360 degrees around Meritus. pics later down this post.
We sat there for around 30mins to an hour i suppose, then went down to the 5th floor for a dip. swimming was great, except that the pool was sooooooooo veryyyyyyy coldddddd. shivers when we soaked ourselves in it. The pool was also very small and the depth was onli 1.2m. In the midst of swimming, one bridal came to take wedding shots. This is something u wun experience in the neighbourhood swimming complex or condominium poolside while swimming. It was actually quite embarassing, especially at ma size and the thick jacket i have around me.
we took our pool towel upstairs to our room, then mel made his foam bath first. he bathed for more than 30mins, and after that was ma turn. ermm, its also actually ma first time doing a foam bath. I spent like 20mins or so, and after that was the water jet spray, which also serves to massage ur back. IT WAS SOOO DAM SHIOK, better than the foam bath i suppose! imagine if I have that at home, ma water bills wud shoot up sky-high.
Shortly after bathing and settling down on the reclining chair, mel's sis and her hubby came back for a while. I was kinda shy though.. hahahaa... We went to Takashimaya food court, mel bought his jap food, and i bought ma mixed veg rice and garlic baguette. We stayed on till around 8.45pm and finally parted ways at somerset mrt. I went to Kaplan find SC, but at 9.03pm ,she was already at winsland house... wow, she muz have flew there or telepported there... haha, too much of
Fringe and teleportation. Wanted to show her our gay-like pics, but then she chao liao.
And then i walked to PS Carrefour check out any last-min offers, and then I saw this walnut cake, selling for $3.50 'buy 1 get 1 free'. coollll~~
And after that, was 16 back home. long day, bt fun! Thanks ah mel for bringing me to check in with u into the hotel! WHAHAHAHHAHAHHAAH
