Coldness to the max~!

Olaaa~!
Finally managed to update my blog~! Huhuhu

Came back from amsterdam and whooooooooo~~~ am i really tired/busy/cold.etc.etc.etc. >_<

The trip in a word was Fun! So many galleries there and really cool artworks ( tho some did creep me out a bit and some was just plainly "whaat in the woooorrld??" ) nevertheless it was two thumbs up =) too bad theres not much tulips, it would have been really nice to see them in full bloom!

*Note to oneself : don't forget to exchange pics with frens*

Sooo~~....next few updates will be bout the trip, hehehe...

Day one :

-Woke up at 3AM IN THE MORNING!! uwa uwa uwa, cos the bus to the airport leaves at 5AM
-Hungry is the word for that time
-And above is a photo of one being in vanity mode, hehehe
-The flight was in a word 'eeeerrrrmm....' but we got to amsterdam safely
-And it HAD TO RAIN when we got there XO



"Welcome to amsterdam people!! and yes the weather for today is a gloomy cold wet tiring day where the bus had to go around in circles twice, and in the end we had to walk in the rain to get to the hotel that we are going to stay in"

..........


Great.... -__- one the first day there too... i was hoping it would at least be sunny...gosh i was reallly~~~ tired that time...


Upon our arrival to the hotel this caught my eye...


I've heard from ppls opinion that the hotel was pretty crap ( u can see from this poster ) and many complained that the staff was not friendly, shower was really bad, the cleaners rarely clean the rooms, etc. etc. etc. and when i saw the poster i was thinking "................."
Yet I tell myself it can't be that all bad and hoped for the best.
Here's my review of the hotel :
  • Staff 4/5 ( They are friendly to me and my colleagues )
  • Room 1/5 ( First impression when i went in " It feels like i'm in PRISON!" Hahahaha)
No seriously, there were 3 bunk beds that looked like prison beds the beds had NO STAIRS, and upper bunk had NO RAILINGS, safety first ppl!! where is it?? Wish i had taken a photo of it but i forgot so have to wait till college opens so i can exchange pics with my frens AND another reason why i said it feels like a prison in there is that the room had lotsa graffitti in them,huhuhu, can't complain about decoration there
Oh and we have lockers too, which.....well.....works.....but good enough to at least put in valuables inside. >_<
  • Bathroom 3/5 The hot and cold shower works well, but the shower head is a "UGHH...." well...at least we get a personal bathroom in our rooms instead of sharing them with other ppl staying at the hotel
  • Food 2.5/5 not the best but at least its cheap and they have a happy hour too from 5-6 PM
The funny advert caught my eye, it just sounds so cute
"Happy Hour
5 till 6 PM
buy 1 get 1 free
buy 2 get 2 free
buy 3 get 3 free
buy 100 get 200 free
buy 200 get 400 free
Hurry hurry!!"
Kudos for the advert i would say, hahaha
  • They even have a disco at the basement ( for the hotel guest only of course ) which has a bar, free internet ( this i like, hehehe ) and the deco was really cool, the whole walls there was covered with graffiti and signatures from the guests
So all in all, it wasn't all that bad, i had shelter from the cold and rain, had a good sleep and rest and its cheap staying there...
So thats day one...
The most annoying thing that time was i had a really bad cold so i slept early hoping that i'll be beter the next day, such timing for a cold to appear...very~ convenient~! ( Yes, i was being sarcastic, thank u very much, huhuhu ;P )
Updates tomorrow, need to start doing other works now,hehehe, and its getting cold again which calls for a nice hot drink!! WHeeeeeee~!
Over and out~! XD
