Hola Singapore..

Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri to all the muslims.. :) The one week holiday came just on time when everyone needs a break... Though it's a short one, i think everyone really enjoyed the break back in their hometown.. As for me, i stayed back in KL because i had another plan... I went to Singapore later that week with Xinni...

Hola Singapore.... It is such a great country... A country so nice and clean put together with great architecture...

We arrived at around one o'clock in the afternoon and headed straight to sembawang where we stayed.. Only managed to go to Woodlands civic centre and few other smaller shopping centres that day..

Second day, we went to Vivo City opposite Sentosa.. However, we didn't manage to cross to Sentosa as both the time and weather didn't favour us.. We could see sentosa from here though... I am sure i will be here again so till next time i will surely step onto Sentosa Island... Back to Vivo, it is a nice place to visit.. Nicely built building which houses a great shopping centre...

Night time, we continued our journey to Orchard.. Orchard was not lit up as grand as it is during Christmas... To me, it is almost the same as bukit bintang plus it is a bit cleaner... Shopping centres like Takashimaya and Isetan line up the whole stretch of Orchard road.. And this time we have one newly opened shopping centre, ION... It looks a bit unusual but i wouldn't say it is nice... Just unique..

We were lucky to have met a photography session for an advertisement outside Louis Vuitton.. One thing for sure, it is not easy to be a model... She stood there for more than half an hour being blown by a big fan... By the time we left, they were still not done yet.. Pity the model..

Third day, we went to Bugis and we managed to walk Bugis Junction as well as Bugis street... This time, it looks like Petaling street in KL... A high class Petaling street selling ciplak stuffs...

Night time, we headed to the city, hoping to see my durian, the esplanade... Lucky us or should i say unlucky us... F1 race started on that day... The whole area around the esplanade was sealed up for the race... -_-!!! Not able to see my durian close up, we moved to plan B which was to see the Merlion... It was not easy to find that little creature plus most of the places were blocked because of our dear Hamilton toying with his car in Singapore.. In fact we almost gave up before giving our last try at Raffle's place station...


From that station, we walked to clarke quay and to the merlion park... The atmosphere there was fantastic.. Marina Sands Casino is just opposite... Though it is still under construction, i can imagine how it would be like in the next few years.. This place is gonna be happening... Must come again once it is completed...


I realised that i complimented Singapore lots.... Yes, they are good... But, they too, have rooms for improvement... Similarly, Malaysia is not that bad either, believe me... As soon as i past the immigration counter, i feel safer because i am in my own country... Still, it is home sweet home.... Till next time, Singapore.... :)
