You Light Up My Life

Finally took some time off to meet le bestie and we headed off to i Light. This being my first time at i Light, I scrolled through the numerous photos on Instagram to keep a look out for the nicer exhibitions. To be honest, I was expecting quite a bit of exhibitions  there, unfortunately they were pretty far apart, and only a few were photo-worthy.

We were there before the sun set so there was nothing much; we took a stroll around the carnival area so check out the stalls and stuff. I was expecting the stalls to sell some cool lighted items but maybe because it wasn't dark yet nothing seems appealing.

The games and rides were quite pricey so we merely just took some photos and walked off.

Finally the sun was down and we slowly saw the "effect" of all the exhibitions HAHAHA. The most eye-catching one to me was the Aurora Northern Lights display (I can't remember the exact name of this exhibition). And Susana kept saying Ah-row-ra Ah-row-ra in the Hong Kong accent. HAHAHAHA.

Look how gorgeous this girl is.

I would say this is my favorite exhibition because these are LIGHTED ROSES and I loveeeee roses.

We took quite a lot of effort to enter the "sea" of roses; it was pouring heavily before that and despite the rain stopping when we arrived, the entire grass patch was muddy and soggy and gross. We became extremely cautious with every step we took. All I prayed was to not encounter any frogs or worms omg. 

美美美

Got the Zouk feel or not HAHAHA.

At times like this I am quite proud of my Canon PowerShot N2 because the photos weren't blurry and because I can't afford an iPhone or DSLR. Does anyone want to donate to this peasant here? T_T

This exhibition is all made up of bottles and bottle caps accompanied with blue lights. I thought it was really good to showcase recycling being put to a good use... Maybe not in the long run because it takes up space HAHAHA. Despite the fact that there were many people, we managed to capture a few humanless shots wew.

Don't you think the night view of MBS is beautiful?

Overall, it was a pretty damp (muddy fields sobbles) but high quality time spent with le bestie. I guess if there were lesser people (though quite impossible) it would definitely be better...

Looking forward to more summer plans with le bestie!

Merry Christmas and A Happy New Year

Merry (belated) Christmas and A Happy New Year!

This is a belated post because I have just entered my first week of school and I already feel like crying HAHAHA FML.

Nevertheless, I finally ended my 2016 with wonderful company and much fun!

And welcome back to Singapore Yingyu (Belle)!!! Met up with her together with Susana and we chilled at the cafe called The Clueless Goat located at Novena and the food was really affordable and awesome. 

Afterwards we headed to town and started walking around Clarke Quay. There wasn't much there as our end goal was to reach Gardens by the Bay (we definitely underestimated the walking distance HAHAHA) and we took the train instead.

Reached MBS and we tried to look for a spot at Food Republic for dinner but there were no vacancies. Saw Chen Tian Wen (Mr Unbelievable) with his kid tho. Yingyu was pleasantly amazed. HAHAHA.

Ate Llaollao for dinner (yes we did) and then made our way towards Gbtb while braving the slight drizzle. Bought our $8 tickets and there we go, into the Christmas Wonderland.

We entered around 850PM and was told that there will me a "Snow Show" at nine, so we just loitered around. Was greeted by this lighted castle upon entering and it was really beautiful. Didn't get to walk around much because we were waiting for the snow show to start.

THEN WE WENT CRAZY when we saw foam flying out of the castle. We ran into the castle and the photo below shows the end product. Hurhur.

I really have no idea why I am the most "foam-ed" person out of us three. I thought taller people should kena more easily. Oh wells.

The we walked around and looked at the various stalls and game stations. They were really pricey tho... And we didn't take photos at the photo booth because it was $8 for 2 strips and we don't know how to split it among us three. 

Chanced upon this Christmas tree and wow, the photo turned out really nice!

There was this lighted shelter (it looked way better in real life; pardon my lousy photography skills) and if you walked all the way to the end you'll see a huge Christmas tree.

At 10PM we went in for a second round of foam.

And finally got someone to help us take a nice photo while it is foaming!

Sad to say the foam wasn't that much at our second attempt; maybe it was the last slot that's why they are cutting down the volume. It lasted really short too. Sobbles.

Before we left we managed to capture a nice picture with this barrel. HAHAHA.

I am so glad we made it to Christmas Wonderland together. It was rare for Yingyu to fly back and I am glad we managed to have so much fun together!

Here's to a wonderful 2017!

A Fruitful Day

After 1.5 years, we finally managed to find time to "tour" around and take nice photos again!

Before that, we went to catch Lulu the Movie at the theater. It was alright, there were some funny moments but overall we felt that the story line weren't very interesting. Afterwards, we had lunch at Arnold's (IT WAS DAMN GOOD OMG THE CHICKEN) and headed towards our long awaited destination - People's Park Complex rooftop. 

Since the last time we took nice photos was quite sometime ago, I wanted our photos to look more professional so I went all out and brought my camera and the godly tripod HAHAHAHAHA. We reached People's Park Complex after taking sometime to find our way, and found the staircase that leads to the rooftop; I swear to god my phobia of heights made me faced some issues climbing those stairs. 

Finally we reached the rooftop and was not surprised to see other people taking pictures as well. I started taking out my tripod and setting up and I felt a bit embarrassed because nobody else had a tripod HAHAHAHA. And we are still "less cool" that the others because they actually climbed to nice but dangerous spots while Susana and I were always on the ground hahahah. 

We actually had some difficulty climbing the rails. Especially me - short people problems.

Luckily the lighting was really good and we could capture the clear blue sky in our photos.

I guess the most "risky" act that we did for our photos was standing on these unstable crates.

Ran out of spots to capture pictures and then FBI Susana found this spot that looks very urban-ish.

LOOK AT MY BEAUTIFUL BFF.

Put on our jackets and tried to look cool HAHAHA.

枪毙 you.

It was really fun and I still can't forget how retarded we were trying to avoid people and cars on the rooftop while taking much effort to capture nice photos. Looks like we need more inspiration on how to take photo with confidence HAHAHA. 

Cheers!
