hey all we got 2 the joo chiat area of singapore (more eastside closer 2 airport.) and closer 2 beach. booked hostel called bettel box on internet got the mrt here. got in2 doorm of 16 people, nice hostel best yet wiv 3 internet, pool table free toast tea or coffee. free films 2 watch and hundreds of new dvds. really friendley staff and people. the only thing that let it down on the internet was location. we assumed this was because it was out of main town. wen we arrived we were like "this aint that bad there was loadsa bar sigs in neon lights." went to beach 20min walk and all seemed gud. it didnt click but there were loadsa older singapore men wiv nic looki younger ladies. on the beach its just like LA people skating, biking and running up and down the road that is only for that purpose no motorised vehicles alowed on it. so went out last nite for a walk and to watch bit of brazil ghana game. the ide was 2 find a bar as we saw so many in the day. as we were walkin tryin 2 find normal bar, there were loadsa ladies chineese/ filipino etc all wat can i say tartted up arriving at the beach
arriving at the beach
 ! short skirts tits out etc lol. but all of these bars had blacked out windows. and all sed ktv bar. with mastercard and visa signs on doors. most bars said any forigners had to have passport 2 enter. we just wanted a normal bar. y did they need passport. then the penny dropped (eventually). this was like a red light district. but i fink more for locals. because i didnt see one westerner. it is like the same as amsterdams rld or pattaya or phukets gogo district. but because its singapore (the strict town) it isnt as obvious and the girls arnt allowed on2 streets to get u 2 cum in, althou u get them bhind the doors of "masage parlours or ktv karroke bars" as there called wavin u 2 cum in. we didnt go in any for fear of what was behind the blacked out doors and windows. and suspected there was probaly a scam or big bouncers or sumthin seedy and not rite. neway the birds r stuning but its al a bit seedy and dosgey 2me. if u want sumwere like this go 2 thailand phuket or pattaya were its more open. neway 2day i woke up and realised that if eng beat portugal we will play france or brazil! as all of the charts i have been lookin at sed germany or argentina! doh! top hostel shame about the location, no i mo y!
also u can use internet here 4 free so ive had chance to tidy it up a bit!
and as u can tell i am becoming more computer litterate and can writ much more than my first entries.
