fulfilling a simple promise

two of the many things i learned to appreciate during my recent trip are photography and recording videos...i may not be a graduate of Mass Communications or anything related to that, but i started to like them because of the solo trip i had...that when you look back, it's like writing a journal [right, David A??? haha...]...i may fade away but the pictures and videos would be living memories...plus in the future, these are things i could share to many, like what i'm doing now through my blog...

actually, i recorded videos of my walking and roaming around the city...and since i'm just projecting my real ordinary self, even my crazy expressions and thoughts suddenly came out in the open...

as for the moment, i'm only going to post two short vids for a good friend i have ,living in the same continent as mine -- Malaysia...i promised to give her a surprise and i simply fulfilled my promise, in fact i did two [so that's promises ryt???haha^_^]...i took a video of this mall in Singapore, specifically in Bugis area, called Iluma and i called her through my cellphone minutes before my departure from Singapore...

actually, i got to meet three awesome and nice gals from Malaysia and we all have one thing in common -- our deepest admiration and love [i guess...haha] for David Archuleta and his music...i met these three through twitter but the distance didn't become a hindrance to this friendship we have...i'm sooo happy to have known and met u gals [Nabil, Izza and Debra]...but for now, i'm doing this for Nabil...

enough said...here are the videos...

ps. pls bear the way i took the videos nd my crazy, cranky self [still an amateur ok?!]...^_^

uniquely Singapore...in Zero Gravity^_^

after months of preparing and saving money, i finally got my post-birthday present for myself...last year it was Malaysia nd just a week ago...SINGAPORE!!!

it was a 5-day trip for me, myself and I...i felt a few jitters for this trip when suddenly i ended up being alone. but then again, if i would not pursue it, it'll make me feel worse that i did not accomplish it the way i want it...so, i just packed my bags and fixed my itinerary for the entire week and headed off to my 2nd out-of-the-country destination...

Singapore is a small country...i didn't have a hard time roaming around the place cause there are so many directions and signs -- easy to comprehend...also, most residents speak in English [so of course, my nose-bleeding English skills *ehem* came to the rescue...haha]...and not to forget, my trusty map that's always in my bag the entire 5 days...

so how was my 5-day trip like???




1. roamed around the city via MRT, buses and by merely walking [no wonder my legs still sore...]
2. explored certain stops like Chinatown [for thrifty shoppers], Little India, Orchard Road and City Hall area [where most shopping malls are^_^]
3. Sentosa experience -- tried the Luge and the Cable Car; one with nature via Underwater World, Siloso Beach and the Merlion
4. headed to Singapore Zoo [to be one with some of my pals' look-alikes..lol] and National Museum of Singapore [got to know more of their heritage and culture]
5. fulfilled a promise when i went to Bugis and searched Iluma Mall *that's for my friend, Nabil*

and when Singapore turns to night, i had my night out thanks to my awesome friends-slash-former officemates who are there at the moment...



** Ms. San-su and Ms. Myrna, Jo, Mace and Tami -- thanks for keepin me company at night time -- at Orchard, Newton area, Esplanade area and Clarke Quay

this will not be the end...certainly, a new beginning...

in summary, this whole trip made me in Zero Gravity!!!

ps. more blog post of my SG trip experience in the days to come...^_^
