This Is Just To Say
It was a wonderful couple of days away. Though we had a fight all the way, a bit of drama at Orchard Road, I believe that both of us learned our lesson and countless memories made.
Despite the long travel to get there and back, I'd do it again in a heartbeat. And right now it's time to go back to the real world - well, my real world. But I guess that's okay. This trip is exactly what I needed at exactly the time I needed it and for that, I'm thankful.

Brunch at Coffee Bean
I forced myself to wake up that morning though I was still tired because of the competition. *Don't get me wrong, I didn't participate but I was there the whole day*
We walked again and again to the MRT station and this time heading to USS ! :)) First, we stop for brunch at the shopping mall.
Universal Studio !
One word : It's worth it ! You just have to pay $72 for the ticket and spent the whole day in USS ! There's a loadddds of things waiting for you. I guess I'm doing unofficial ads for USS.
I felt like I was in my imaginary land, everything. The Holllywood Street, Madagascar, The Lost World, Egypt.... The roller coaster? Try it until your heart stop beating. I was screaming aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa all the way and he was like 'no face expression'?? What? But at least I did it though I'm scared of heights actually.

The Riverside Cruise
6.30 pm
Finally, I can have shower ! hahaha, I know it's kind of lame. Seriously, that's all I need.
We head ourselves to The Inn Crowd Backpackers.
Surprising, it was awesome ! They had own kitchen, candies machine, magazines, beans bags, sofa, radio and everything. A place like home. I know, it is hard for you guys to imagine the place, so here's a pictures to summed it up.
8.30 pm
Again, we walked 1km to Little India MRT station heading to Marina station. I was freaking excited ! Nightlife in Singapore ! woooohoo ! We bought ourselves a boat cruise tickets along the river for 30 minutes.
The moment I was at the bridge, I was amazed. This is gooood ! They have a lot of restaurants, open bar and stalls.Good food. hehe. We took the cruise first and it was worth it paid $10 for that !

The RockMaster Competition
5.30 am
Everything was dark, empty and dull in Lavender Terminal Bus. We walked down about 1km away to the nearest MRT station and danggg ! Straight away go to Dover station?? The Singapore Polytechnic.
6.30 am - 3.00 pm
Yes, the whole day we were there, at the competition waiting for his turn. I was so tireeeeed, sticky, sleepy. But not even a single a complaint from me. Anyway, I was quite surprised with the polytechnic, it was HUGE! They even had a McDonald, Burger King ! Wow, I am so in love with the food ! :)
The best part, the whole area equipped with wifi ! So, I played with his Ipad, googling maps, places to go later and facebooking plus twittering. *Can't get rid of that actually. *
3.00 pm - 6.00 pm
Finally, his turn. I never had a chance to see he climb at Camp5. So, I was a bit excited to see he climb those wall. It may look easy, but it was actually kinda hard. I didn't know that sometimes you have to depend on two finger and hang yourself. Hmm, imagine if I climb?? *Ohmy, I don't think that I'll able to move at all! *
Anyway, back to the competition. I saw he was a bit nervous since there were a lot of talented and experienced climbers. He completed 4 of 6 route during the competition, and I am so proud of him ! It was his first competition, and I am glad I was there supporting him.
Just for you:
"All your life you are told the things you cannot do. All your life they will say you're not good enough or strong enough or talented enough; they will say you're the wrong height or the wrong weight or the wrong type to play this or be this or achieve this. THEY WILL TELL YOU NO, a thousand times no, until all the no's become meaningless. All your life they will tell you no, quite firmly and very quickly. AND YOU WILL TELL THEM YES."

Crushed
[Received text] 'Lets meet up soon!'
[Replied] 'Okay!'
My reaction: Ohmygod, I was so excited ! Jumping around like a small little girl who just made a promise that she's going to Disneyland soon, smiled the whole day even when she's sleeping, hoping the day to come.
Preparation: Exam on the next day? Oooopss ! I need plan ! Woke up early in the morning, went jog around Central Park for an hours. Grab myself a cup of tea ; Vanilla Mint blend, find a perfect spot, take a deep breath, and earplug with Norah Jones. Bring it on ! Slowly open my Biopsychology textbook. Believe it, I spent the whole week at Starbucks revising.
A week later... on the day itself...
[Received text] 'I'm sorry, I can't make it.'
[Replied] 'Its okay.'
I was like.... crushed.
