I landed late last night, and by now I’ve already ate, drank and perved. Here’s a quick recap. Blinkymummy picked me up at the airport at around 10:30pm and we went to have Teochiew porridge at Oasis.

I got back to Rob’s place two hours later and had some beers with him and another highschool friend from Perth, Vinnie. We caught up with each other and chatted till about 2am. By then I was totally exhausted and crashed. And stupidly I forgot to change the timezone on my phone and set the alarm for what I thought would be 11:30. Instead I actually woked up at 10:30am Singapore time. Darn you, Australian daylight savings!

No matter. We shared a plate of fried kuay teow for breakfast, relaxed and showered before heading out for lunch and perving, and also to get my prepaid SIM card and changed some money. Word of advice to would-be travellers – change most of your money at the city that you are holidaying in. The rates work out a heck of a lot better.

We had chicken rice at the food hall in Bugis Junction, and then some frappacinos at Starbucks on Orchard and people watched. We also did the touristy thing and went by the gigantic Christmas tree in Ngee Ann City.

After a spot of grocery shopping, we headed home. Tonight we should be having some seafood – chilli crabs maybe – and then heading out to either Clarke Quay or St. James Powerstation. Most likely we are heading to St. James because Rob’s a member to something at United Overseas Bank that entitles him to bring in two guests for free to any of the clubs at the complex.

More drinks and perving tonight then. Yay!
