I was planning a little getaway for my birthday last August, So this coming September, I'm making a belated birthday trip to Singapore with my cousin.
At the Changi Airport Singapore
Hirap tumae sa ganyang inidoro lol!
We checked in to the hotel at about 5 pm already. Medyo disapointed lang ako sa Hotel room kasi isa lang palang kamang malaki at di separate beds. Ngee magkatabi kami ni pinsan matulog. Hirap talaga ng may kasama sa room.
I'm also a horribly light sleeper, and it takes forever for me to fall asleep, the slightest noise will wake me
I also have not gotten used to the noises my cousin makes. Kaya di ako masyado nakatulog sa first night namin sa Singapore.
Di talaga ako sanay matulog ng may katabi o kasama sa kwarto, Siguro if I get married separate beds kami ng magiging asawa ko hahahaha
Ang babaw ng pool ng hotel kasi hanggang bewang ko lang but the water is absolutely perfect.
We decided to take a tour sa Sentosa
The next day, we took the cable car to get to Sentosa
Sentosa is a resort island with beautiful white sand beaches, resorts, bars, and fun attractions for the whole family.
Our first stop made in Sentosa was at Singapore's proudest statue called Merlion.
And we were able to enter inside the statue
The view from the Top of the Merlions Head:
May ibibigay silang Coin then ilalagay siya sa bibig ng Merlion and you will get a prize
Ang prize ay isang Fan
My favorite part of the tour was the museum (Images of Singapore).
At the Images of Singapore you'll experience the colorful culture and vibrant heritage of Singapore, retold through life-size figures, and special effects
We also visited Underwater World
Sentosa and the Dolphin and Fur Seal show. The show was rather short, at about 30 minutes or less.
Di hamak masmahaba yung tunnel aquarium dito kesa sa Manila Ocean Park
Hmm walls pala ang tawag sa Selecta sa kanila, Kasi yung Logo ng Ice Cream is definitely from Selecta.
Maraming peacock na ligaw din sa park
By late afternoon, we arrived at the Singapore Flyer. The Singapore Flyer is the largest fly wheel in the world
Reaching the top of the wheel we enjoyed the views of the impressive city of Singapore.
Sa Singapore flyer di mo talaga mararamdaman na umaakyat at bumaba ang wheel. Then after nagice cream kami kasi ang init sa Singapore.
We also watched the "Songs of the Sea", Singapore's multi-sensory extravaganza. The world-class water show features dramatic effects, water jets, lasers, burst of fire. Nakita din namin ang man made beach ng Singapore
The story sucks! but the show is still good because of the effects. Tapos yung mga dancer di pa sila sabay sabay lol!
Next day we travelled the city of Singapore by an amphibious vehicle known as the Duck.
I took the MRT from Chinatown to Little India. This place was not as clean as other part of the city. Pinuntahan namin ang Mustafa Mall na bukas ng 24 hours.
Then after Little India, sa Chinatown naman punta namin, In where makakabili ka talaga ng murang mura na souvenir items na pwede ipasalubong.
Usually mga items dito costs at around $10 for 3 items na like shirts, keychains, etc. which is really mura, kasi kung sa Sentosa mga souvenir items like shirts, keychain etc. would usually costs at around $16-$18.
Tapos naglunch kami, buti na lang at maraming malapit na kainan na malapit sa hotel namin. Ang hotel namin ay malapit sa Malay community.
Napansin ko ang lalaki ng mga pusakal sa Singapore.
Then nagikot ikot pa kami sa City bago kami umuwi. This time sa taxi naman kami sumakay. Kakaiba taxi nila kasi ang driver nasa right side.
THINGS I LEARNED FROM SINGAPORE:
1)Singapore is a multiracial and multicultural country that conists of
the Chinese, Malay and Indians.
2) Everyone in Singapore can speak English
3) Walang traffic sa Singapore, and one reason for that is that you need to pay $28,000 para lang sa drivers license. At wala ako nakitang luma na kotse sa Singapore
4) Everyone in Singapore are very approachable and friendly
5) Some of singapore's water supply came from Malaysia
6) A mandatory National Service requires all male Singaporean citizens who have reached the age of 18 to enroll in the military
7) Condominiums in singapore are considered the most expensive in the world
8) Nakakita din ako ng mga cigarette butts na nakakalat sa ibang streets ng Singapore
9) I noticed na ang employees ng McDo sa Singapore matatanda na like mga lola na. Which is good kasi kahit matanda ka na may work pa rin, Unlike sa Pinas na masyado obsessed ang mga HR sa age ng applicants and employees which is BULLSHIT talaga!
My next entry will be my trip to Australia pero matagal na siya at kelangan ko pa hanapin yung mga pictures
I'm always exhausted after a vacation and feel like I need at least a
day of vacation from vacation in order to charge my batteries - See more
