Happy New Year everyone. Gong Xi Gong Xi. Hope the new year will wash away all bad luck and will be a smooth sailing year for all of us. It's also Valentine Day today but I guess most Chinese will be celebrating the New Year and have forgotten about Valentine Day. Most shops are closed so I think buying flowers will be a problem. Not a problem for me cause I never practice buying flowers. Keke..

Usual stuff before we went out. Cam whoring at home.





Something special for us this year. Instead of going to Mum's house for BF, we had BF at a Temple at Bukit Gombak. The stuff we did every year is very standard so decided to be more creative this year. So we went to the temple to pray for health, luck, etc followed by free vegetarian BF. Though simple, it tasted very nice.

Went visiting at Mum, Granny and Karin's place.

Gold Bar, Nougat, coin. How I wish they are real gold.

Homecooked dessert.








Visited Resort World. It's the grand opening of the Casino and as usual, the whole place is super crowded. There's really little places of interest in Sg so once there's a new opening, everyone will rush there. Everyone wanted to be the first to view the new place. Driving there is recommended if you are going there for a short while or after 7PM. 1st hour parking is $7 and subsequent hour is $5 and you dont have to pay entrance fee. Per entry charges of $5 after 7PM. Whereas you will need to pay for the monorail/bus fare and entrance fee if you are there by monorail/bus. Those walking in are not spare the entrance fee.

The place is actually quite small. Though we do not have the chance to preview Universal Studio, I'm quite sure that it will almost the same size as Disneyland HK. The shops and restaurants are also limited, can count them with my fingers. The greatest disapointment is the Victoria's Secret (The famous lingerie retailer store), the first Store in Asia. The selection is so little as compared to their website.

The casino looks more tempting though. But entrance fee is $100 for 24 hours. I jokingly said that I would rather pay for the annual entrance fee which cost $2000.















Some performance at the main arena






This is half of the VS store. So can you imagine how small it is.
