Singapore

Hello. It's me again.

We arrived there sometime in the evening ( Sunday ). We checked in to the hotel, hanged out there for awhile, went to the local shopping malls, then got ready to go our aunt and uncle's place for dinner.


I never really got to know these particular relatives, because they live in Singapore ( obviously ) and when they DID visit us in KL, we didn't know them enough to talk.

But we became quite friendly after this trip. My uncle had cooked the best dang turkey I've ever eaten in my whole life ( I've never ever eaten turkey, but still... ). He's a real chef, as you can tell by the way he talks about food and stuffs. He's like Jamie Oliver or something.

AND his food tastes amazing.


See this picture of a turkey? Looks good don't it?

Well, I can assure you my uncle's turkey tasted better, however good this one tastes.

So he went on to serve us mussels ( Is that how it's spelt? ), baked potatoes with bacon, Chataeu De Candelys ( some kind of wine ), and much more. Course by course. It was past midnight by the time it was over, so we went back to the hotel.

Day Two-Monday. It's my birthday!

I woke up full of hope to go to the skatepark, as Singapore's Youth Park is the most famous skatepark in Singapore, and it is great to skate there.

Instead of going to the skatepark, we went to Robinson's ( a shopping mall ) first. This time, I went with my other Singaporean cousins.

The Christmas tree was HUGE, as you can see. There was even a sign on the tree saying " Danger. Do not touch-High Voltage "

Here's another picture of the tree. With me and my cousins. Don't blame me for the picture quality, I didn't take it.

Anyways, after we had finished shopping, it had begun to rain, so my birthday plans were foiled by none other than God himself.

So we went back to the hotel by MRT ( one of the most annoying forms of transportation, if you've taken it before ) and got lost several times on the way due to taking to wrong exits out of the tunnel.


Then, after reaching home tired of all the walking, we find it has stopped raining. So I wait around the hotel, giving the park time to dry off, then we set off again.

We have to take the annoying and MRT again, then finally reach there.

And guess what? It's raining.

We had dinner with my relatives, again. But unfortunately, we ate out. Chinese delicacy crabs and Roasted Chinese Children. And wine. Don't forget the wine.

Day Three-Tuesday.

I woke up and found it raining. AGAIN. AUGH.

So we went shopping for awhile, and finally went to the skatepark by taxi when it stopped raining.

Their taxi's are blue.

Floor was wet, though. Here are some pictures of the park.

Nice Graffiti...

After the skatepark, we went for more shopping, and then went back to rest. My dad had brought home some cold pizzas for snack, and these are several ways in which we tried to heat them up.

Hairdryer.

Steam.

So what if it didn't work? You can't say we didn't try....

Then, we had dinner with the usual group. THREE nights in a row. So filling. Gotta lose some weight when I get home. Hahaha. But these 3 nights were real feasts.

Hairy Crabs, Australian Pantrikilists Snow Leopard Crabs, Mettler Fish ( named after a man who lost 3 arms trying to discover them ), Ambiguous Makinnese Prawn, and wine. Don't forget the wine.

And I learned, on that fateful night, EXACTLY how hard it is to get a beautiful picture when there's a colourful lighting night scene picture to be taken.

We went to Clarke Quay ( pronounced clark-key ). The whole place looked like a giant night pub. Here's some ugly pictures. Don't judge me too harshly, it was a hard task, getting those pictures.

Oh yeah, Did I mention? I bought a new car.

Made of beer bottles......
99 bottles of beer on the wall, 99 bottles of beer! You take one down, and pass it around, you've got 98 bottles of beer on the wall! And so on.

Many people walk in Singapore.


Hooters. You can't deny the fact that you'd like to go inside. Don't lie.


Me, my mum, and my sis.


My favourite part of the trip. Don't ask.


More of the infamous fire hydrant.


The streets.


Look! A fountain!

Day Four-Let's Go Home.

It's the last day, and the weather is beautiful. I went to the skatepark, did some filming fir my video, then we went for lunch at Central.

There was some ice-skating performances going on there......



After that, we went home......
