So basically, it was soooo good that we've already been there thrice in 2 weeks. I'd recommend their special soup, with pork(you can choose beef if you want), with kway teow/glass noodles, and the spice level for me... less spicy was adequate. (THE NORMAL SPICE LEVEL KILLED MY FRIEND AND I LOL)
I'd suggest for you to try less spicy, then if it were not spicy enough, just add using the condiments provided on the table. (For high level spice junkies - just go with what you think you can tahan - that goes without saying?? Haha.)
It's $1.90 for the small portion, and $5 for the big. Of course, for first timers, I'd suggest getting multiples of the small portion to try the different soups and levels of spiciness and noodles - it was what I did anyway.
I'd rate this 4/5 stars.

I've never had a best friend in my whole life, I've only had close friends, whom all hold a place in my heart. But however close we are, there are still gaps and differences between us. There's not a person whom I can turn to, 100%, regardless of anything and everything (well, now I have a bf to turn to, but let's take him out of the picture for now).
I truly wonder, is it really important to have someone whom you can trust wholeheartedly, someone whom will not judge you, someone whom will always have your back, someone whom you can talk about everything and anything you have to talk about. I feel the emptiness on days when I have so much to say, but nobody to turn to. There's not a single person whom I can talk to about EVERYTHING AND EVERYONE. Sure feels like crap, but.. what can I do?

Dear me,
When will you ever wake up? When will you finally learn from your mistakes, of not studying, not preparing well enough for your exams? I’m pretty sure you’re taken aback from your current results, not being able to always score how much you wanna score. Why aren’t you as competitive and concerned about your studies as the other students? Wasting money, time and effort. You think you very young/will be forever young ah? Wake the fuck up. The amount of time you spend studying is the grade you will get back in return. Why can’t you just be like the rest, study hard and score well? Stop being lazy and distracted. Know your priorities. I know, it’s hard to go to school with nothing to look forward to, no friends, no company. But, life still goes on, no? How long are you going to jeopardize your studies, because of social reasons? Enough. Really, enough. Now, get the fuck to work. You have another maximum of 2 years to graduate. I know you hate people asking about your degree progression, but just be honest and go ahead with doing what is best for your studies. WORK IT, BITCH, WORK IT.
First of all, sorry for the lack of updates about my travels. I've been soooo lazy to finally transfer photos from my phone to my macbook. But anyway, let me get on to the main points of Phuket Day 2.
Woke up and went for hotel breakfast. The spread was just...meh. Don't expect too much. The only 'freshly cooked' food was eggs - omelette/scrambled eggs, your choice.
This was how my breakfast plate looked like (handpicked by the boy)
Shopped a bit at Zara (btw, clothes are slightly cheaper there), and window shopped the rest of the mall. We were hungry, and went to find somewhere to eat. At the entrance/exit of the mall, we chanced upon this open-air, beach themed restaurant, called Tablespoon Cafe. I LOVED IT. There was a duo performing live. The ambience couldn't get any better.
This is how it looks like:
The food we ordered: pineapple fried rice, stir-fried vegetables, tom yum goong, and braised pig trotters
and boy, the food was good!
After dinner, we were done with Central Festival, and headed back to Jungceylon. Since we only had 4D3N in Phuket, we were contemplating about the island tour before we flew, because we were worried that we wouldn't have enough time. Turned out otherwise.
Walk down the streets of Jungceylon, and you'll find a whole stretch of local tour services. Simply pick the one that attracts you the most, and go ask for a price! I paid SGD40 for half day tour to phiphi island - includes lunch and transportation to and fro to the jetty.
After booking, we headed back to the hotel and rested for the night, as we had to get up early the next morning for the tour.
Wait for day 3 and 4!

Have you had a friend whom you were very close to, change gradually, from bad to worse(in terms of behavior)?
Have you had a friend whom you've known for the longest time, change gradually and slowly drifted apart from each other?
Have you had a friend whom you've always hung out with since young, but yet, abandons you whenever he/she has a new group of friends?
Have you had a friend whom always asks for your opinion, and you go all out to help him/her, yet chooses otherwise? / in a ear, out from the other?
Well, yes, I do.
It's sad how someone can change so much..
P.S. If you happen to read this, and think you're the person.. Then.. Go think about it. Its like no matter how many times we tell you or confront you about it, you say something then do another, and won't change. Sick, sick and tired.

I believe most of you, have already read on many posts on being an NSF's girlfriend. I'm sad to say that it has come to be my turn to being an NSF's girlfriend.
1. Spend more time with him, starting from probably 2 weeks before enlistment
'NOOOOOO CMPB U RETURN ME MY BF NOW' LOL.
Things have been 'so far so good' with my bf.. I just hope it will remain like that or become even better as the days pass.
Few tips I can share with you, that I did/am doing with my bf:
1. Spend more time with him, starting from probably 2 weeks before enlistment
We went out more, spent more time together at home, be it cuddling or just playing on the playstation with him, time spent together would really mean a lot to him. You can also plan small outings to Sentosa to just have fun together. There are so many activities available that are affordable --- luge, trick eye museum, adventure cove, or even USS (if you have enough to spend). Remember to take more photos together whilst having fun!
2. Try to encourage him and cheer him up about NS (if he is upset), before and during enlistment/whilst serving NS
Cheering your loved one on would make him feel at least slightly happier. If times in army are bad, encourage him to pull through. Even if times aren't bad, a simple perk-him-up text just to cheer him on will really brighten his day!
3. Reassure him
Your bf will be feeling insecure, for sure. Be it feeling insecure/worried about your relationship, about leaving his family, about meeting new people, about being punished by his commander(s)/sergeant(s), about sleeping without air-conditioning (LOL idk if he would but I DEFINITELY will BAHAHAHA), etc., he will feel much better when he knows that you're mentally supporting him, that you've got his back (sorta?).
4. If bad things were to happen to him in camp, feel angry/sad for him, but try not to encourage him to stay angry or sad/add fuel to the fire
With enough bad things happening in camp, you wouldn't want to add fuel to the fire. Instead, try to make things better. Comfort him, calm him down, try to make him happier. Staying angry/sad is not going to change anything that happens in camp. A second being sad/angry is a second being happy lost. I mean ya, wtf do you mean by being in camp = you can be happy? Definitely won't apply to everyone, but I certainly believe that once your bf finds friends whom he can click with, and enjoys being with, everything becomes better in camp. (I know I know, also not I serve NS, talk so much cock/info. may not be applicable, but I have been to camps before, so... I guess its the same rationale?)
5. Be understanding and forgiving
Be understanding about your bf's free time, be understanding about him not being able to call you for long every night, be forgiving that they cannot text you as much as they used to, be understanding that they are very tired from a long day of 0530 to 2230, be forgiving if they neglect you, be understanding that they do not want to be in camp either. They do not have a choice. I'm pretty sure if our bfs did, they definitely wouldn't opt for such a life, of serving the NS for 2 years.
These are the tips that I have, nothing much has happened. But these are the things I've been trying to do, and things have turned out great, for now. Well, as time passes, I'm pretty sure there may be some hiccups that may jeopardise/hurt our relationship, where more tips may arise, but till then, x.
