Bugis in Singapore

Wednesday, May 25, 2011

Now for the last part of my travel series episode 1. 
To those people who went to my blog expecting and wanting to find makeup/clothing/fashion/beauty related posts, just skip these travel posts. hihi. 

Traveling is just my second love so can't help but post. 


Goodmorning sunshine! Last day in Singapore. :( I look happy in this photo but to be honest, i'm dying inside. I'm so not ready to leave SG just yet. Still more places to explore. huhu. 


A shot of the buildings outside our hotel window.
 Love the fact that even the buildings are somehow organized in a certain manner. 


Our unmade beds. 
We were so in a rush to eat breakfast and make the most out of our last day. But we did tidy this up a little bit before leaving. 


Of course, we can't forget to hear mass first. 
(Sacred Heart Church)

Thank you, God, for this super wonderful opportunity to experience the beautiful country of Singapore even for just three days. :)




Yay -- now ready to do some last minute shopping! Hopped in the MRT Dhoby Ghaut and went to Orchard station to visit Wisma Atria


We're here. Woot woot!


On our way back to the hotel for checking out. 


I don't know what this photo is all about. :|

Oh! my sister is trying to capture the full-sized DOMO right thur!

Can you see it? Can you see it? hihi


I wonder who was first. Jollibee or Jollibean? 

I sure do hope it's Jollibee! 

Look at the font it's certainly the same. 


Shopping at Bugis Street Market! 

Saw gazillion piles of clothes, shoes and bags.

 Almost identical to Greenhills Shopping Center here in the Phils. 


Magsawa sa phone covers! haha


Of course! I can't miss their one-dollar Wall's ice cream sandwich. 


It's like Selecta here. They prefer to call it Wall's in SG. 


Stopped by IKEA but wasn't able to buy anything. 

It's not like you can go to the airport and carry a 200 lbs table. haha.

So yea empty handed is the way to go. :(


My last meal in SG! Korean food, my fave! lalalalove love Bibimbap!


My sister being extremely excited for her new shoes from Forever 21 SG. 


Back in MNL!

That's a wrap, guys Hope you enjoyed my travel series episode 1. 
Also hope you learned a thing or two. ;)

Sentosa, Singapore

Monday, May 23, 2011

After our whole adventure in Universal Studios Singapore, we took some last-minute shots with the ubiquitous universal globe. Really, who went to Singapore without this photo? haha no one I'm guessing. 


Now my sister's shot with the arms-wide-open-pose. :)) 


Shopped around the stores outside USS. The chocolate shops, Reese's, Hershey's, etc..

Managed to also grab a bag of Garrett's Popcorn. Omg this is totally hard core. Lalove love their caramel ones! Definitely something you guys should try out. Just a little bit of a trivia the cashiers in the stores that we've been to (outside USS) are in general Filipinas! It's so much better to communicate with them!  


Garrett's Popcorn! Now my fave but oh just be cautious, I bet a mini bag has gazillions of calories.

 Oh no it might lead to a tina the talking tummy comeback!


Rode the Sentosa Express again and went to the Sky Luge Station. 



This ride was really fun. If you guys are with your family and/or friends, it's something worth trying. :) 

It's 12.50 SGD per person (adult price)


beautiful paper cranes over at the Sentosa Express entrance


Shopping at Cotton On (Vivo City). Managed to purchase a printed sleeveless top
Watch my haul in Youtube


At Ben & Jerry's but didn't purchase anything. haha


Went to ION Orchard Mall afterwards

I'm on my way to their Food Opera in this photo. Omg just typing "Food Opera" makes me crave for Singaporean food. @-)


Grabbed a Happy Lemon drink after dinner. 
It's just a bit odd that their pearls a lot smaller than ours. I wonder why. :|

Anyway, that's for my Singapore Day 2. Don't worry Singapore Day 3 coming right up. :)

Definitely excited for my next trip -- Europe here I come. WWYD 2011. 

How's summer so far? post your comments down below!

Universal Studios Singapore

Time for Singapore Paaaaart two! 
Here's how our day went

7:30 Complimentary Buffet at the hotel's coffeehouse

9:00-10:00 Travel from hotel to Universal Studios Singapore


My oh-so-cute cousin, Marga. :) 


Going to the MRT Station


At Dhoby Ghaut Station


Yay finally, a family photo. 


At the MRT. weewoo. love riding their MRT. It's so clean and cold inside. 


Now at Sentosa Station! About to ride the Sentosa Express



10:15 Now at Universal Studio Singapore
The famous Battlestar Galactica

I'm so brave I rode both lines! The red and blue. 

Okay, that was a lie. :( 
In truth, I'm such a scaredy cat. Just the sight of it makes me cringe with fright. oopsie. 



10:45 am
With the BEAUTIFUL Egyptian Princess near the ride "The Revenge of the Mummy" 

I really can't get over how beautiful that girl is. I don't know if it's just makeup but really she is sooooo pretty to me. haha


11:00 am

The Shrek 4D. If you were to ask me, this attraction isn't worth lining up for. The line was toooo long. We had to wait for around 20-30 mins and it wasn't that great. :| boohoo. 

If you are a 5-10 year old, you might MIGHT have enjoyed this attraction but for teenagers and grown-ups, it was a tad bit corny. Sorry Shrek and Fiona but your attraction really isn't that cool. :( 

11:45 am


Me with the Shrek headband, pretending to be really happy and excited after the ride. hihi


12:15 am 

The Waterworld Show! Love this! It's just a bit too long but yea it's worth watching. 
They had a lot of cool effects and the cast was to die for. The lead female character had unbelievable agility and strength! She kept going up and down the ropes, poles and precisely, any-object-that's hard to go up and down from. 

Singapore 2.2 coming up next! Wait for it. :) 

Until here for now, my fingers are already complaining for too much typing
