Lepin Ghostbusters Firehouse Headquarter

Lalala so happy to finally owned the iconic Ghostbusters Firehouse Headquarter. Too bad the Lego one is priced too high at SGD$599.90 so I have no choice but to go to the Dark Side and get the Lepin one which is only SGD$119.

So happy that I can finally start to build this beautiful set. Am abit suprised that the girlfriend doesn't know who are the ghostbusters at all. Am I that old? This is such a hit for the 90s kid. I can never forget the ghostbusters song and the iconic Stay Purf that terrorise the city in a cute way haha. 

Lepin Green Grocer

Yeah I have the Lepin version of the Lego Green Grocer that has earned the title of "End of Life" alongside with many other Lego Modular sets. With that, the Lego Green Grocer is currently being sold in the market at a high price tag of SGD$1,000+. That itself is way beyond a middle income person like me to purchase so it's either I go Lepin or I go home and sleep through the hopes of owning it. 

With that, i present to you the Lepin Green Grocer :) Managed to get two sets of it; one for myself and one for the colleague. Got it for just SGD$60 from Carousell which is quite a good catch considering it being a bootleg of Lego. Can't wait to open it up and fix it up for display together with my Lego Petshop.

And so after a week of sorting and searching for the parts required to build this beauty, I've finally completed building it. It is such a beauty but it's definitely not worth paying SGD$1,000 for because even if I'm a Lego collector I am against spending that much of money on it.

Time for my Lego animal mascots to pay a visit lo ^_^

My mentor Clare's last day

It is an emotional Friday today as we bid farewell to Clare on her last day at Tokio Marine. But like what she said "There's no forever goodbyes" so we'll definitely see you again some day. But I am very affected by her departure even though I wished her all the best in her career. Ever since I joined the company, I've never felt so appreciated for the things I do until Clare came along. Hopefully I will get to work with her again in the near future. 

Agency Presentation

Finally the day has arrived for me to conduct the presentation to our Agency force on the rules and regulations that they have to follow through in their line of career. Initially we were taken aback when we were told that we are the ones who had to conduct the training when we had no prior experience of such at all but with the encouragement from Clare Chua my boss and motivator, it really helps to ease the tension and prepare us for it. Honestly speaking now that it's over, I'm glad we were given the opportunity to do this.

Clare, Qiuling and I :)

"The first step is always the hardest, but it's the only way to reach the second step." 

So happy and proud of myself.

Fun@TM Company Team Building

It's Tokio Marine Team Building today

We're having our team building today and we're heading over to the Marina Barrage in the afternoon. So happy because there will be entry to the Cloud Forest which I have not went in before other than the Flower Dome. Somehow I felt that we're taking the game too seriously that we forgot the most important thing which is to enjoy the moment. Everyone was trying to complete the various tasks and quiz in the tablet provided that we did not slow down our pace to enjoy the beautiful Gardens by the Bay, Flower Dome and the Cloud Forest. #Whysoserious

Me and my team mates from the various departments

I guess I'm the only one in my team to stop and enjoy the view

Finally met up with the colleagues after the games. Walk over to Marina Bay Sands together and catch some Pokemon along the way and chasing after the Dewgong Pokemon before it disappears.

3D2N to Kuala Lumpur and JB Day 3

We have come to the end of our 3D2N trip where we traveled to Kuala Lumpur by flight and thereafter traveled down to Johor Bahru by bus and lastly we're heading back to Singapore by bus today. How I wish we could stay here for one more day and enjoy the infinity pool.

Woke up for our breakfast and to be honest there's nothing much to talk about as it wasn't as good as the Hatten Hotel or KSL hotel but lucky the pool is great. Went back to the room to sleep in and to our horror we overslept till past 12pm before we hurried to check out.

Walk around at KSL before we cab down to Jalan Sutera Satu for our lunch at Shoon Huat Bak Kut Teh 顺发肉骨茶. I still love the Bak Kut Teh here and have been a fan for the past 10 over years. Lalala so happy to finally eat this since we have not been coming to JB for quite awhile. 

After our very fulfilling lunch, we cab down to City Square to walk around and spent some time at the arcade to play some of my favourite games with dear dear. Love to play the basketball and shooting game with dear and can't stop laughing too :) Lalala we're having my favourite ice cream at Baskin Robbins before heading back to Singapore.

3D2N to Kuala Lumpur and JB Day 2

We have come to day 2 of our 3D2N trip to Kuala Lumpur and today we're heading to Johor Bahru. Woke up for our breakfast which I find to be rather decent considering the size of the hotel so nothing much to complain about.

The cute cute girlfriend enjoying the view from the hotel pool

Lalala relaxing at the hotel's pool after our breakfast before we head back to our room to rest before we packed up and make our way to Johor Bahru. And now we're all packed and ready to go :) Decided to be an explorer today and explore the public transport here in Kuala Lumpur.

Walked over to the Bukit Bintang station to catch the train from here to Hang Tuah station and switched to Laluan Ampang line towards the direction of Sri Petaling. So excited because this is the first time that we're exploring the alternative of taking the train instead of the pricey taxis. It cost us just RM3.90 per pax to take the train from Bukit Bintang to Bandar Tasik Selatan Station as compared to taking the taxis which would have cost more than triple the price.

Too used to the doors being shut at Singapore that I'm afraid to stand near to the opening gaps here

Taking the stairs down to wait for the train to go to Bandar Tasik Selatan Station

Me and my dearest girlfriend

 The scenery railway tracks

Lucky there's no shortage of signage to direct us to Terminal Bersepadu Selatan

So happy that we bought our bus tickets beforehand as there's a long queue of people queuing up to get their tickets. Plus to be honest, the people at the ticket counters aren't very friendly and helpful towards people as compared to Singapore. Too many lousy experience at the counters in Malaysia left me with such a bad impression on their customer service.

Yeah can you imagine we've arrived at Larkin Terminal, Johor Bahru in just 3 hours 30 minutes of jourey ^_^ So good to be able to catch some rest along the way so that we can fully enjoy our stay in JB. Once we've arrived at Larkin Terminal, we cab down to our hotel which is just 10 minutes drive away at Holiday Villa.

Once we unpacked our stuffs we head down to KSL mall to grab some small bites and try out the Soon Soon Heng Bak Kut Teh just opposite KSL since there were quite a number of good reviews. Was rather disappointed that it taste bland and it's salty to be honest.

Lalala decided to head back to our hotel to check out the infinity pool before we have our dinner later on ^_^ Love their infinity pool so much plus there's a warm Jacuzzi and sauna in the respective men and female toilets. Really is value for money for a one night stay here.

After our swim and relaxation at the infinity pool, we showered and set off to KSL to change the screen protectors for our phone and buy some stuffs before heading over to Jalan Kelewang for our dinner.

Yummy yummy 鲍鱼面 (RM16), wanton mee (RM6.50), lok lok (RM19) and aiyu jelly (RM4) ^_^

Took us awhile to grab a taxi along the stretch of road after our dinner. Sometimes I wonder how come there's so many taxis when we're having our dinner but once we're done all the taxis were gone lol. But lucky we managed to flag down a taxi after 10mins of wait. 

Head over to Sawadee Resort Hotel & Spa which is just opposite our hotel to have our massage. Go for the Aromatherapy massage which is RM80 per pax during the weekends (RM10 cheaper if it's during the weekdays) for 60 minutes. Whole body felt so relaxed after our massage as we head back to our hotel to rest for the night. Can't wait to try the Thai traditional massage with dear which cost RM69 for 60 minutes.
