CC Gang Gathering: Kbox + Marina Barrage

--Kbox @ Cine--
Met up with the gang to sing KLunch. Choices for lunch were limited, either chicken teriyaki or chicken chop. Our chicken teriyakis turned out to be like chicken chop lo, and it's not delicious. Only the fries & lychee pudding were great. Lolz! Had fun singing today, and we were crazy as usual. Haha! It's a pity that PY could not join us again...when can we meet u ah? Haha!
--Ion Orchard--
Walked over to Ion and we went to the Food Hall @ B4. Ho...there were so many stalls, but many were Japanese ones la. Too repetitive ba? Anyway, tried out Taiyaki from "The Taiyaki", and I chose the Italian flavour. Er...did not know that there's a sausage inside. Took a bite of it, and it's just....yaks~! Anyway, wld check out the Food Hall again....hehe!
--Marina Barrage--
It's quite a tiring journey before we finally reached the place. I seriously think that we shld have drive there. Lolz! Anyway, we took MRT to Marina Bay, and walked over to bus stop A for the shuttle bus to MB, but from the bus timetable, we gotta wait quite awhile. GC suggested that we cld take Bus no. 400, but bus stop B was quite far away. We gave it a try & saw the bus passed by us. Damn! We started to run but could not catch up with the bus la. Haha! Sweat like mad sia~Not too sure if the shuttle bus wld stop at bus stop B, we decided to walk back to A and just nice, the SMRT shuttle bus was here. After waiting for 5 mins, the bus left the bus stop and.....damn!!! It did stopped at B too!!!! Wah piangz....

Marina Barrage~I liked the design of the building and how the walkways linked to the rooftop. I think the scenery wld be better when Marina Sands is ready.
