JETSTAR JETSAVER LIGHT CHALLENGE : WINNER'S TRIP!

So the weekend went like this :

Tysern & I were chosen as top 10 teams winners of the Jetstar Light Challenge, and we were to be flown to Singapore from Penang, given RM70 allowance each and a great 3.5 star hotel room to stay in for the night, then fly back to Penang the next day. The RM70 was to be fully utilized from the savings of the air fare. RM70 = around SGD30

The check-in letter + my boarding pass after collection at Penang Airport, Bayan Lepas

Jetstar Asia A320!

Inside the airplane... great flight which takes about an hour to reach Singapore from Penang

Upon arrival at Changi Airport, Singapore

We were welcomed with an usher from the Grand Mercure Roxy Hotel.
Shuttle service was provided from the airport to the hotel!

After our drinks, we took off from the hotel to start our journey! How?
We took a bus from the bus stop right in front of the hotel. Real efficient bus service in Singapore!

Clean bus with lots of space. Bus ride from hotel to Singapore Flyer = SGD1

The Singapore Flyer! Sadly it was closed for government internal event.

So we moved on to the National Art Museum of Singapore. Just passed by...

Our first main stop was Orchard Road of course! Went in The Cathay shopping mall and had lunch at the CHIP SHOP.

Then of course we had something that could not be found in Malaysia!

After a whole afternoon of shopping and walking Orchard Road, we headed to Newton Food Court by MRT = SGD0.80

Was our favourite attraction of Singapore throughout the trip. STAR JUMP!

So we made our way to Zirca Mega Dance club, one of the largest in Clarke Quay

To our delight, it was our own Malaysian superstars, the Bass Agents spinning!
And thanks to them, we managed to enter under their guestlist, meaning we went clubbing in Singapore for FREE!

ENJOY LIFE IN SINGAPORE! That was the end of our one day trip to Singapore.
Taxi back from Clarke Quay to hotel = SGD9

ITS THIS WEEKEND YEAAA

OVERDRIVEEEEEEEEE
*shuffle shuffle shuffle my way off*

Tearin' Up My Heart

Author's feelings now :

It's tearing up my heart when I'm with you
But when we are apart, I feel it too
And no matter what I do, I feel the pain
with or without you.

I don't understand
Just why we can't be lovers
Things are getting out of hand
Trying too much, but baby we can't win

Let it go
If you want me girl, let me know
I am down on my knees
I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE
