In June last year, Chris and I had a super spontaneous trip to Singapore.. It all started with, "Che, can we go somewhere this school holiday?" Haha! I know it's kinda random but definitely no regrets making a trip down!
That was the first time I went on an "oversea" trip with bro! It was even FUN-er when we met with the cows, OOPS! I mean Kow's over there! For me, Singapore is not an alien place for me because I went there a year ago & I've covered most of the place I should. It's more of the company that matters..
As usual, we travelled down by bus, First Coach - the all time favourite, comfy yet affordable for budget travellers like us! When we arrived, we got ourselves a simpack for easy communication and it only cost us $8! Next, we have to find our way to our grandaunty's place in Compassvale, Sengkang!

After dropping our luggages and had a short chat with grandaunt, we left for the town to meet the Kow's! First stop - Orchard Road! As a tour guide to my brother, how can I not show him the main shopping district?

We met up with them and shopped around till around 6pm we separated.. They went to have dinner with their uncle while we went to Clarke Quay, one happening tourist spot!

After a wonderful sleep, it's a brand new day again! Today, we had awesome breakfast prepared by grandaunt. After breakfast, time to meet the Kow's again! With 3 girls + 1 guy, we definitely did a lot of camwhoring!

Later in the noon, we headed to the Toy Museum.. I would say it's a lil' overrated for me as I think the collections are pretty much avail in other places. Oh well, the best part was the couch! What more could you ask for?

To compliment to our rest, we need to fill our tummy! We made our way to Bugis by foot! YES! We walked all the way to Bugis. Not too far away but definitely not a short distance. We spotted a decent place for "tea-ner" at 5pm! It's by MOF, Ministry of Food, so it shouldn't be too bad! The best thing was the PRICE!!! 50% of for the pizza!

After dinner, we called it a day after an hour plus walk in Bugis Junction!

48 hrs has passed and it's the 2nd last day of our trip! Today, I brought Chris to the Merlion! How can a tourist miss the Merlion? Hahah.. We had the whole morning to ourselves till we met Aunty Evelyn for lunch! It was nice catching up with her after N-years..

Later on, she brought us to Vivo City because Chris needs to shop!! Hahah! Omgee! TANGS over in Singapore is a must visit during the annual Great Singapore Sales! Chris got his Tiger Onisuka & Guy Laroche wallet at a super reasonable price! You definitely can't get it back here..

At about 6pm, we had to rush back to Ee Poh Daisy's place for dinner because my granduncle wanted to meet us. It was a pleasant meal & it was kinda hard for us to ask for permission to head out again to Vivo City to meet the Kow's!

The view and environment there at night is super duper awesome.. Super chilling! We were lying down on the deck and chit chat till about 1130, we know we have to leave! Time to say bye bye again!

That night, I realised I had sunburn on my shoulders but it was worth it! *winks* Time to pack up and ready to go back again.. Bus is at 1030 and things happened in the morning! We were THIS close to missing the bus but God is GOOOD! He answered our prayer & literally slower time for us to be there right before departure! I guess this concludes our trip. I hope you enjoy reading and more exciting stories will be coming up soon!
