Finally! I was able to have an out-of-the country trip! I went to SINGAPORE!!! With my Mother : ) We were there to visit my father and of course vacation. Actually I was just a chaperon to my mom. She doesn’t want to go there alone so I insisted to be the chaperon. Hehehe. Of course we need to ride a plane to go there. Which excite and scared me at the same time coz it is my first time to ride a plane. Plus the fact that the weather on the day before was rainy, which made me pray to God He would take care of us. Hehehe. Good thing God listens to my prayer coz at the time of our flight it was already shinny. We ride Jet airways plane for 3 hrs. No free meals for us but there are food for sale. Coffee cost 100 plus just like starbucks but taste like Nescafe. It sucks.!
Singapore is an amazing country, it is so small compared to us yet there are lots of trees and very, very clean. Another thing that I like are buses with designated number stopping at designated places. There are also estimated time of bus arrival and a lot of direction written almost everywhere. In their mrt, brochures are free. The only down side when you ride at their mrt?? There is a stingy smell from I don’t know if Indian or other people from other nation. Riding in there bus would cost you some Singapore cent. But if you would compare it in peso, it would cost almost 30 bucks for ride on the next block. Taxi would be a lot more expensive! Better have a top card for bus and mrt ride to lessen the hassle. People there don’t care most of the time but kind enough to answer when you ask them question or direction.
My parents and I visited places like Sentosa, Lion city, Singapore park etc. Mall at Singapore are everywhere. My mother and I also went to Ate Ayie’s place. Cocoy’s older sister. She has a new born baby and soooo cute! Most of the apartment there are in building kinda condominium style. I’ve been sick on this week visit to Singapore due to non-stop walking and sightseeing hehehe. But it did not stop me to go places in Singapore : ) On my last day I was already performing sign language to my parents since I wasn’t able to talk anymore. Thank God for this chance to see Singapore! I hope this won’t be the last time. I hate going back to Philippines coz it means work again. But I have to go back to reality ….
