Singapore : SHINee World Concert II

This is my first time traveled alone to Singapore. Sebenarnya aku dah banyak kali pergi Singapore ni, semata-mata untuk konsert, bukan untuk sight seeing. Rasanya ni kali ke-7 aku masuk keluar Singapore dan sudah sedia maklum, passport aku dipenuhi dengan cop Immigration Singapore jer laa.

So, I started my journey after Subuh. Semalaman tak tidur sebab (1) cuti sekolah memang aku tido lambat layan streamming video, (2) excited nak tengok adik-adik SHINee. Actually, I'm supposed to go there with Leoscan Noin, my partner in crime in 'spazzing' the 'adik-adik', but she could't make it because her mom was admitted to hospital due to kidney stones. Nasib baik dia bagitau a day before the date, dapat ler aku jual tiket.

I estimated the driving time is 5 hours, more or less. Plus sleeping at the R&R for 20 minutes. So I ended up at CIQ Hotel at one o'. This is a quite small hotel that Noin and I really like because it is near to Woodlands Checkpoint and the staffs are really friendly and helpful. Makan? No problem. There is a mamak restaurant in 5 minutes walking distance. Lagipun aku suka makan nasik beriyani lepas konsert. To book this hotel just go to booking.com.

CIQ Hotel (cr to the owner)

There is also a shopping mall (City Square) near this hotel, I think 10 minutes walking distance kot. Kalau by car probably 15 minutes sebab kena pusing masuk highway. I am not sure because I used the GPS. Yes! We really loooovveeeee this shopping mall because it has Etude House and Seoul Garden. Both related to Korean. Hahahahahah!!!

*I think we have to go there someday, baru tak kemaruk

I shut my eyes for half and hour more. Tak lena pun. After bathed, went straight to the venue and as usual jam at the Woodlands Causeway. Ada Tuas pun jam lagi, tatau ler. Ohh, I'll tell you later about how to enter Singapore with a car.

This is Woodlands Causeway yawww!!!

Arrived at the venue at about 4:00. Promised to meet the buyer at 3:00. Tapi biasa laa kan, janji Malay. Haha! Not my fault the 30 minutes journey became one and a half hour journey. So, after a few sms and call to the buyer I met her and gave her the ticket. We entered the stadium an hour later since the weather is quite hot and I felt tired and my heart was beating fast due to lack of sleep. Firstly, we faced the security check (to check weather we bring the camera inside. Yeah! Camera is disallowed in the concert) but I was kantoi. At first, he asked me to put it in the locker but after a while he allowed me to bring the camera inside provided I didn't use it during the concert. Pedulik apa aku! I am a person who always breaches the rules unless it did not cause me to go to jail. HAHAHA!!! ψ(｀∇´)ψ

After a long wait my dongsengs, SHINee appeared. Well, I think this is the best concert I have been throughout the year. Even better than SWC in 2011 where I sat in front of the stage and 2 meters from the idols. So, I conclude that to enjoy the concert do not sit near the stage, stay away from it so that you can enjoy the performances, not the fan service. Plus, the boys also had fun and they were playful. All of my tiredness and sleepiness disappeared. Thanks to Lee Jinki, Kim Jonghyun, Kim Kibum, Choi Minho and Lee Taemin. Hoho! I didn't use my DSLR but I took a lot of pictures using my binoculars. I used the DSLR at the end of the concert when they themselves asked us to take their pictures.

The boys: SHINee

After the concert, I straight away went back to the hotel, bought nasi lemak (quite delicious) and go through my Facebook and went straight away to sleep. I think I slept for 8 hours. After checked out at 11:30 p.m. I went back home. Looking forward to SHINee World Concert III. Good luck boys!
