❥ ♡ ❤ ❥ ♥ ♡ ❥ : The 3D experience!

What hopeful faces we have before our nightmare begins!

Our Batam experience was none other than... the 3Ds,

DELUDED.

DISAPPOINTING.

DISASTROUS.

Those blogs and forums that recommended the 1-day-itinerary in Batam ought to be shot. To hell with avocado milkshake, A&W and Nagoya Hill Shopping Mall. We spent SGD 80 on 2 return ferry tickets and 45-60min ferry ride later, we found ourselves desperate to leave.

The miserably-sized chicken from A&W was soggy and the curly fries were cold. The Root Beer Float was additionally charged as Root Beer + another surcharge for 'upsizing' to a Float, despite the enticing photo of a Set Meal which includes chicken, curly fries and the root beer float.

Avocado milkshake. Each of us had a sip and off to the rubbish bin it goes.

A construction-in-progress opposite Nagoya Hills. I cant make out what is it going to be.

A carpark? Another mega mall? I foresee the huge structure's gonna be a wasted investment again.

The mega Nagoya Hill mall had absolutely n-o-t-h-i-n-g worth shopping for. Yes you heard me, MEGA MALL. Yes I repeat, N-O-T-H-I-N-G. Well, if you are a fan of pasar-malam fashion and POLO imitations (or 'authentic rejects' if you wish to live in denial), I guess you'll find yourself in heaven.

We gave up on the idea of a seafood dinner because we have no idea how to survive the hours before dusk. No thanks, no more Batam for us, not even the resorts!

Our Batam experience: one photo sums it all! HAHA!

HAHAHA!! This photo always crack me up!

It felt really good to be back on the Singapore shores and even better when we stepped foot on Sentosa that evening. What an island-hopping experience!

Singapore-Batam-Singapore-Sentosa!

MAD CULTURE SHOCK. =D

We were just in time for a dinner at Coastes while watching the gorgeous sunset!

Coincidentally, birthdays at Coastes always bring me great memories.

It was Yach last august, and now, the boyfriend and a beautiful sunset!

Awesome scenery, great company and good+affordable food by the beach.

I ♥ Coastes!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!! HELP!! MOLESTER!! HELP!!

Thank goodness beloved Sentosa saved the day! The beach walk after dinner marked the end of our long illogical weekend from 20-22 Aug! Initially I thought it was illogical because there was going to be an overseas getaway i.e. BATAM and yet a night's stay in a local hotel. You get my cheap-thrill contradiction? -__-"" HAHAHA!
