Notes from a backpacking trip:
  • Thank goodness for long weekends!
  • ...And budget flights!
  • 630a flight - stress all over as coming from a looong day at work + dad's birthday + rainy day traffic.
  • Terminal 3 is... empty of shops but full of people. And the idea of going back and forth to pay for the travel tax and what have you is annoying.
  • Waiting for the flight was not that long...
  • Sleeping through the flight... zzzzz...
  • Wow budget terminal, feel the difference :P
  • Hostel (pensionne as my dad calls it) life with shared bathrooms, surprising things you find in the hallway every morning, clean as you go, different cultures all under one roof
  • Zoo with the poor polar bear, penguins, meerkats, gee-ra-fees, underwater ballerinas!
  • Night Safari - ooh :)
  • Super walking all over the city to see it! I loved walking behind The Fullerton Hotel. :)
  • The toy store with all the Lego pieces you can buy! Wah!
  • Food trip! Hawker's Centres for stingray and noodles.
  • Luge and skybench (is that what it was called?), cable cars, Underwater World.
  • Merlion! I don't know why I am so fascinated with saying that!
  • Dhoby Ghaut interchange (in my most modulated, pang IVRS voice) - love the public transpo - very efficient.
  • No time for Edward Twilight saga as we leave the hostel early and crash in by 1am every night.
  • Ikea! Lots of stuff to buy but how to bring home...
  • Rushing to buy chocolate!
  • Beef Turkey, Chicken Coin - mmmm...
  • Chinatown!
  • Fashown! :)
  • I think we brought the rain to Sing...
  • Ben & Jerry's Chocolate Chip Dough is love ♥
  • Plack plack plack with Malor the Local.
  • Street ice cream! :)
  • Chicken foldovers in McDonalds.
  • Bonding with old and new friends.
  • Kopi :) - which I didn't try but still.
  • Making it happen :)
