CeciL's ChecK uP

A short update about my weekend in Singapore.

On Thursday, we left the house at about 8am. Our flight SQ 955 was really on time. At exactly 10.30am it took off. We weren't seated all together. Casey and me were in the row in front of Cecil & Sam.

Food was served as per Sam's choice. The good thing about taking SQ flight is we can choose our menu online. Cool, eh? I also just know about it from Sam. Sam ordered the oriental fried rice for us.

It was pretty good. At least so much better than Garuda Airlines food.

We reached Singapore at about 12.30pm. It was our first time in Terminal 3. The airport was freaking cold and way too spacious. Found out much later that T3 is strictly for SIA and it's to accomodate those tourists who go there once the casino is opened. Those who travel by SQ to other Asean countries will still leave from T2. Sam doesn't really like T3. It's so inconvenient. You have to walk a long way from the gate.

Checked in at Mandarin Meritus Hotel. The place was so freaking packed. Indonesians everywhere. I wanted a different atmosphere actually. Kinda sick staying there but Sam said it's the cheapest compared to Marina Mandarin or Ritz Carlton. Moreover, it's within minutes walk to Takashimaya, our favorite shopping place.

Kids and Sam ate again in Taka food court. Then we walked to Tanglin Shopping Centre since we have a 5 o'clock appointment with the doctor. On our way there, we stopped by Haagen Dazs to eat ice cream. Sam was not in such a good mood after getting calls from Tedja regarding the government people coming to check the warehouse. Me taking a pic of the troubled him:

It was a long wait at the doctor. I even took a short nap hahaha.... Then we finished at around 7pm. Went to Forum Galleria first where I bought my 1st blouse in Emporio Armani. It was a good sale. Walked back to Takashimaya. Wanted to have dinner in Sanur (Indonesian restaurant) actually but the waitress told us that we had to wait for another 30 mins. We were already so famished by then. In the end, we had dinner at the food court again =.= I ordered the wrong food. Didn't know it was a vegetarian stall since I didn't look at the name first. Was so disappointed with the food that I instantly become full just after eating 2 spoons of the food.

Got back hotel at around 9pm. Was dead, dead tired. Slept almost the same time as the kids.
