悠懒的三天两夜Langkawi Trip



上个周末与好友一块儿到Langkawi消磨度假时光。短短的三天两夜虽然短促,不过还算过的优游自得。

抵达时已是傍晚五点多。一出关卡就有友善的Westin工作人员帮我们提行李到出口处。Hotel Transfer 还真是不便宜啊,要新币$80。不过在那里乘搭德士似乎不是很方便,机场外也不见德士踪影。况且我们认为这样做也比较安全点。25分钟后抵达了Westin Langkawi Resort. 迎接我们的还真是个赏心悦目的美景。在等待办理Check in 的当儿, 我趁机把美丽景点拍摄下来,不然夜幕低垂,就什么也拍不到了。我们很幸运的,被Upgrade去了Ocean View Room。可以一起床就看到大海,真是一种享受。

我们趁天色还没变黑时,赶快环绕度假酒店一圈,看看有什么我们可以做的。有游泳池啦,gym 和spa 啦,有脚车出租啦,有DVD可以出租啦. 就这样。。。



当晚我们便去出了名的Wanderland中餐馆吃晚餐,离酒店只有十分钟路程。我们点了鱼,菜,Calamari,虾,味道还不赖。相信是店主的我们,竟然不收我们的小费,全部只收我们马币$50而已,真是划算。店主非常友善,是他介绍好吃的给我们,而且分量刚刚好。那里没什么好逛的,吃完后我们便回酒店去,便在Breeze来个小憩,喝点饮料,听着live music, 陶醉其中。我们聊着天到挺晚,便回房休息了。

星期六我们早上先在酒店周围拍照,然后搭乘免费Shuttle Bus到Langkawi Fair(据说是Langkawi最大的Shopping Mall)走走,也在那里解决我们的午餐。在那里我们待了两个钟头,没有东西好买的,便回酒店了。我的朋友由于身体有点不适,便在房间休息,而我呢,便在房间的阳台读杂志,吃零食。累了便倒头就睡。



到了四点多,好友睡了一觉好多了,我们便到泳池旁晒点太阳,游点泳,好舒服啊。泳池的末端,看似连接海洋,望着一片无际的海,什么烦恼都暂时抛到九霄云外去了。当晚,我们到酒店的Taste Restaurant吃晚餐,当晚是Seafood Buffet,不过我们点Ala Carte 来吃。餐厅气氛很好,员工也很友善,让人吃的开心,聊得也开心。吃完后我们又到Breeze听歌喝饮料,直到接近午夜才回房。



好快啊,星期天我们就回来了。虽然短暂,不过还挺写意的。

On Leave day


Today was really an "unsmooth" day for me.

Woke up at noon today. Decided to go watch a movie with my sis. Chose "Ghosts of the Girlfriends Past", but show screening time reflected only 2pm, 7pm and later. So we decided to watch the 2pm show and to buy tickets directly at the counter there.

IT TURNED OUT TO BE A BIG MISTAKE TO BUY TICKETS AT THE COUNTER. BECAUSE THE QUEUE WAS SO DAMNNNNNNNNNNNNN LONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I tried to see if I can bluff my way through at the Visa Platinum/Infinite Counter, but the staff refused to let me buy tickets at the priority queue counter. So we had to go through the long snake queue to purchase the tickets. Luckily we arrived early, if not I guess we had to take the 4pm show.

Another embarrassing moment came when we entered the wrong cinema. I went to our N row and saw there were people sitting on our allocated seats. Without realizing the cinema was screening “Night at the Museum 2”, I was telling the woman that they have taken the wrong seats. Upon realizing it was me who made the blunder, we quickly left the cinema 6 embarrassingly and proceeded to cinema 5 which is just beside it.

I was still dwelling on those awkward moments when the show started and got me entrenched to the scenes. The movie was a nice one, warming and humorous, although the ending is predictable.

After the show, we went for some shopping at Tampines Mall and the new Tampines One. I FINALLY got the chance to go into UNIQLO store and browse around. In the end, I didn’t manage to see any clothes that I fancy because they were very casual.

It was amazing that I didn’t buy anything in the end (because I always like to buy things), but my sister who usually don't buy things got a pair of sneakers. We bought some snacks and drinks before we departed for home.

日韩服饰


上个星期五放工后约了好友一块儿到Far East Plaza逛逛。发现那里吹着一股日韩凤,有越来越多店售卖着来自日本和韩国的服装。上一次,我和朋友在其中一间店看中了很多衣服,店员说是来自日韩的。由于价格比其他店来的便宜,所以我们便买了几件。后来我从另一间专卖韩国服装的店员说,那间卖的其实是从中国来的所以价格才比较便宜。

我不知是否是真的,因为衣服里的标签有些确实是以日语或汉语写的,又或者写明制造于日本或韩国。不过素质真的稍微逊色点我觉得,在穿过之后。所以我也不能确定自己是否“上当”了。

老实说,在那里,日韩的衣服售卖的真的很贵,让人买不下手。再美都好,一间绣有蕾丝在V-部和尾部的无袖日制棉织上衣就要S$49! 一件普通长袖棉织衣也要S$69 - $89,怎么看都不明白高价在那里。不过我想如果那里有常客光顾的话,应该是因为质地真的很好,穿得舒服吧,外加unique style一定有。

不过此刻还是有点望而却步,只能远远的欣赏着。若真的看见一件非得买的confirmed是日韩衣服的话,我一定会穿了后给于真实的评价。

过后我们便步行到Cineleisure的香港茶餐厅去吃“晚餐”,或者叫“提早宵夜”,因为已经是十点多了。
那里也有售卖韩国T-Shirt,不过我觉得素质没那么好,虽便宜好多,却没有想买的冲动。
