Suddenly, I am mad about going overseas. Lol.<\/p>\n

Went into JB with Minyan and Mingpo on Saturday. Yinghao joined us in the afternoon.<\/p>\n

The 3 of us met up at Kranji MRT Station at around 10.30am. Mingpo and I was on the same train, as he was just behind me when I got out of the station. Then the lady appeared, and we took 170 in.<\/p>\n

I was thinking, if a scenario that I had thought of happened that day, it would be an interesting day. Lol. But since whatever I think of\u00c2\u00a0usually won’t happen, the day’s safe.<\/p>\n

Aw… lol! (What’s the scenario? DON’T TELL U…)<\/p>\n

Clearing SG customs was as usual, a breeze. Going to JB customs was as usual, stuck in a jam. At least the new CIQ’s big. The CIQ’s grown big. The white card’s has become smaller in size. lol…<\/p>\n

And then, we were in JB! Since they had not been to Tebrau City, I suggested that place. Again. Lol.<\/p>\n

And so, it’s my third time there, and my first time to go there by taxi. The other 2 times were by car. We went to City Square to change some money, and set off for Tebrau City.<\/p>\n

Ok, I think 11am is not a very good time to enter JB for lunch. The best time is still to meet up at 10am at Kranji, as always.<\/p>\n

Anyway, we reached Tebrau like 3 hungry ghosts. We went for food at Stone Grill (wtd… my THIRD time… but their first.. so.. ok lor). 3 people. 5 sets.<\/p>\n

WOW.<\/p>\n

The key thing was, we finished everything.<\/p>\n

Then we ended up jalan jalan around the shopping mall. I got nothing to buy… so.. just jalan jalan around. Mingpo bought a bib (for himself… no… for his nephew) from Toys “R” Us.<\/p>\n

Then we got tired from walking, and we ended up at this chinese herbal soup place for a rest while waiting for Yinghao to appear.<\/p>\n

While I was writing this, I remembered the first time I ended up at Tebrau City with Zhixiang, Evelyn and gang, we did thought of going for the desserts, but I think in the end, we gave it a miss. I forgot the reason, but I think it had to be due to dinner time. Lol…<\/p>\n

Well, each of us ordered a dessert. Someone ordered 3 eggs. I ate 1. No prize for guessing who ate TWO…<\/p>\n

And then, Yinghao appeared, after a long wait. Then we went for another short round of walking around, and then set off for dinner, since there’s really nothing much at Tebrau\u00c2\u00a0City.<\/p>\n

And we managed to get lost once again while searching for a taxi…. wahahaa!!! I did not know why…. but it’s funny laaa… and we ended up \u00e8\u2021\u00aa\u00e6\u2039\u008d-ing at the carpark…. Diaoz… lol…<\/p>\n

I forgot the seafood place that I have gone to previously (although I remembered 1, at Jalan Ibrahim Sultan), near Taman Sentosa. And so, I asked the cab driver. He said, for seafood, go to Taman Sri Tebrau…<\/p>\n

And wtd… That place’s \u00e5\u00a4\u00a7\u00e9\u00a9\u00ac\u00e8\u0160\u00b1\u00e5\u203a\u00ad…<\/p>\n

Ok la.. at least I know where’s \u00e5\u00a4\u00a7\u00e9\u00a9\u00ac\u00e8\u0160\u00b1\u00e5\u203a\u00ad now. Lol. It’s so near to Taman Sentosa anyway.<\/p>\n

On a side note, I somewhat remembered the route to the seafood place that I had gone to, with Zhixiang and gang. I remembered something about “turning left on seeing the public bank along Taman Sentosa”… I remembered this when the taxi drove past the bank. Lol…<\/p>\n

The 3 of us were so full from lunch and dessert, that I did not dare to order much food. Yinghao was the hungry ghost for that round. We had the following:<\/p>\n
