The Singapore's Merlion.From Sentosa. :)
This has been long overdue. It literally took me almost 4 months after the trip for me to finally be able to post something about my Singapore trip. I just can't find the best words to express my feelings regarding the event. It was one hell of a roller-coaster ride for me. The journey that lead me to a better me. :)
My journey started last February 12. It was a sunny afternoon, traffic was heavy in EDSA and even in Magsaysay Avenue. Mom and I left our Makati Apartment around 3pm since our flight was 7.45pm. We had to check-in early since it was my first trip abroad and we might encounter glitches along the way.
We arrived at NAIA terminal 2 had our luggage checked-in chose our seats and waited for mom's bestfriend to arrive before we went to the immigration officer. However since it was already almost 5pm we decided to go inside and wait for Tito Ed inside. Good thing we didn't encounter any problem with the immigration and was inside almost immediately after.
We got really hungry and were looking for a store to buy snacks but luck was not with us this time. Mom already had her money changed to Singaporean dollars and my wallet was inside my luggage which was already checked-in. Talk about luck. :)
Tito Ed arrived around 7pm and bought us some snacks to much on since the FAs where already calling our flights it seemed to not even reach our stomachs.
Mama and Tito Ed seems to be ganging up on me since they had insisted that I sit near the window. I am basically terrified of heights and this is what they want me to do? Seriously?
After almost 4 hours I am finally in Singapore!
This photo is taken from the Singapore Flyer.
First day in Singapore was spent inside mom's office! Seriously!
But kind Tito Ed talked mom into bringing me to Sentosa. It was the last day of the Flower Festival so it was such a great experience. :)
I have been to a lot of wishing wells but this one is just so beautiful I don't even
want to throw a coin in to it for fear that I would destroy its beauty.
Since it was my first this in Singapore and I don't have
anyone to go to USS with me. I have to wait and be
contented with a photo with the globe
I just like the whole design of Sentosa that day.
Mom however can't stop taking picture of me
with them. :)
My Auntie Mely and her family came after a couple of days. That was when I started touring around like a regular tourist! Yay!
We went to Bird's Farm and my lovely niece enjoyed the tour so much! Love the bird show and the tram ride!
Isla is not looking at the camera! She is so exited. :)
Tourists much? ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
On our way to the second stop of the day.
SENTOSA!
With the girls. While waiting for our turn to ride the Ludge!
It was so much fun roaming around Singapore with the people you love and know. There were a lot of things to do and a lot of things to explore. Sad thing is My cousins are only going to stay in Singapore for a couple of days.
On their last night we went to the:
DooDoong!
SINGAPORE FLYER!
I swear that it was not something that I would try again. Once is enough!
I was literally scared for my life that I don't have any
decent photo inside the Flyer.
This was taken while we are waiting to ride the gigantic
Ferris Wheel.
After that life-threatening (well it is for me!) experience we enjoyed eating at the Marina Bay Sands. It was a beautiful mall full of designer boutiques that I don't even dare to enter since I might as well fill the room with my saliva! I am drooling over the items on display!
Isn't it lovely? I am salivating!
We then roamed around and was in awe! The Helix Bridge was so incredibly amazing that I temporarily forgotten my fear of anything dangling and me on top of it!
It was basically a hanging bridge!
Certification shot! With my lovelies!
Since there were a lot of interesting tourist attraction in Singapore. I was able to practice my love for photography.
This is one of my favorites. Will always use this. :)
There are a lot of lovely scenery around Singapore
I just used a regular camera with this photo.
Other that enjoying my stay in Singapore with my mom and Tito Ed. I also made friends with some Filipinos and some Singaporeans.
I also met up with a couple of Appler friends who are also staying in Singapore.
My lovely friends. Nhicole, Je unni and Monique.
There were also sometimes when I would roam around Singapore alone. Yeah I can be a loner at times. :)
This country are just divine! There are a lot
of beautiful scenery that you just want to
capture using your camera's lense
Thank you Monique for this wonderful photo. :)
A week before my departure, my sister came to Singapore! It was the time when we enjoyed so much!
We finally went to Universal Studios Singapore and we had a blast!
Have I ever mentioned that I am terribly afraid of heights and my sister enjoys those death defying ride! I swear those two rides was the scariest 5 minute of my life!
My sister who was so happy and tired at the same time! It was a wet and wild day. Literally! We had to change clothes after one of the rides in the Jurassic Park area. My shoes were soaking! Note to self: Next time I visit USS, I will be wearing a very comfortable slippers.
My stay in Singapore is something I will forever treasure. I promise to go back and this time it would be a longer and much more adventurous!
