Mission Accomplished

19th September 2009 was the day I went to Singapore with my sister to visit another sister. We traveled there by bus and it was a superb journey as I got to watch two movies, one with my sister and the other by myself. I managed to watch Inkheart which I had missed when it was up. I won't do this when I'm at home. Hmm...I started to have motion sickness after I had finished the 2nd movie. Thus, I nap.

We reached JB bus station at around 4.30pm. We met my friend there and then we took a cab to the hotel that I had booked earlier. We checked in and sat in the room for a while discussing what to do during that few hours. My sister decided to go Singapore. So off we went. I was reluctant as the sickness made me feel really unwell and I was kind of afraid to travel by bus again.

Before we crossed the river, my friend wanted to bring us to the nice Curry Fish Head for dinner but it was closed. *Sad* I thought that would be something that could help me reduce the feeling of that sickness. We have no choice but to have our dinner at one of the shops in City Square. Hmm... We had something that was kind of similar to Kenny Roger's but it was not really good plus I did not have appetite.

We thought of going to the night safari but we did not make it as the time was so late when we reached Singapore. So, my friend brought us to a few places which are so happening at night. Those places were Marina Bay and Clark Quay. Haha... We were all so full that we did not eat anything nor drink anything there. In addition, the things there are so expensive. Anyway, we enjoyed walking there.

After that, we went back to JB. We stayed a night there. Since the minute I reached there, my friend had not stopped asking me the reason I went there. Hmm... I found it so hard to have to explain to him. Even after I explained to him, he just couldn't comprehend. He kept asking me to call her but I just did not feel like doing so. I told him that I will call her tomorrow.

The next morning I heard somebody was singing worship songs upstairs. We were having our breakfast near the lobby. True enough, that hotel owner is Christian. Haha... I felt so touched to hear those songs. Right then, I received an SMS from my sister. She SMSed me just to ask me to help her to get something from a friend in Ipoh. I called her telling her that I have something to passed to her. She and her boyfriend came to the hotel that we stayed. They were heading to somewhere else. So we did not have serious talk though. We managed to pass her a Chinese bible and the letter that I wrote to her.

They left for their activities and we left to Singapore again. I hope so much to visit the aquarium but the timing was really bad and there were so many people every where. At the end we were bought to the biggest and newest shopping complex- ION. The building is really impressive. I liked one of the shops there called National Geographic. It's so impressive. Then we went to Orchard and Vivocity. Hmm... We walked so much! The next time I go, I know my way already. Thanks to my friend who brought us from one place to another. We had almost visited all the places at red zone. Hmm...

Mission accomplished, at least i got to meet my sister for a short while and managed to convey the message to her and passed her a bible. Yeah!!! And through this trip, I got to know that I have a good friend. He was so patient with us. And also want to thanks those who prayed for me/us before and after I left. Indeed, it wasn't a bad trip at all.
