A fun JB trip

Yes here I am again typing this down when I am suppose to be studying for a test. I really just have a habit to blog when I am suppose to study. Maybe I should have a test every single day, then I'll blog more regularly.

Anyway, I really had fun going to JB on Saturday. It was a great day. The mall, City Square was upgraded. So it was so much nicer than the last time I was there. My fav mango drink is superb too. The last time, the mango I had was sour. This time, it was just like the one in HK. Went to eat the sushi restaurant. I can't remember what it is call, but the salmon mentai is so much nicer than the one in Sg. For some reason it is not so cheesy and thick that it is pleasant to eat. Usually it is just so saucy, thick and eventually every bite will be sickening.

There was sale going around too. The only regret was buying foolscap paper from MPH as there was a Popular on the level above it. Foolscap at Popular is so much cheaper. RM13 for 480 sheets or something like that. I never buy much too. Just Elianto nail polish, buy 3 for RM16 and my Babylips from Watsons. I wanted to get Rimmel matte powder, but the Rimmel counter was practically sold out. I wanted to get some other product, but the crowd was just too much. So end up, with lots of self constrain, I never get anything else.

Also I wanted to get Inglot shadows, but I do not know the price sold in the US. There, it was selling at RM30 per piece. And I know I am more interested in the packaging which you have to buy separately. So I nada for me.

Went to eat at some hawker food place. Stingray, cockles, crayfish, satay and chicken wing. All the yummy food for a marginally cheaper than Sg. Well, obviously. The weather was so nice and with occasion wind, it was the perfect weather to eat our dinner.

Then went to the nearby Cold Storage, and bought my Magnum. It was RM4, and I always have to eat Magnum whenever I am in Malaysia or Indonesia. It was just so overprice here, that I have to find delight overseas.

Overall, the journey was great as it was not crowded. Only when going home, there was a queue at the Malaysia checkpoint. All the Singaporean were going home at the same time, but it wasn't too bad.

Came back to checking my IG and found out some Sg blogger went to JB too. She bought like Etude House nail polish for about $5. I check on Qoo10, and it was selling for $4.90 + $1.90/3pcs. So technically it was cheaper in JB. And I was blaming myself for not going through the shop more thoroughly. Come to think of it, I want more Elianto polishes. The bigger bottle one. The new colors are so pretty.

I guess I can be proud at myself for only getting 4 things on this trip. So ya, a consolation ending to a well deserving break.
