Hello! I’m here to talk a bit about my Singapore trip. It’s a very long story, I tell you. So yeah, this will be an outline story telling. hihi I’ll just list 2 categories of my top faves which kinda summarize the FUN EXPERIENCES I’ve had in my trip. =)) Photos are still unavailable since my Dad hasn’t shared with us the pictures yet. Haha. :)

5 MAJOR FAVORITE PLACES AND ACTIVITIES: Show ▼

5. Underwater World – I saw lots of sea creatures that I have never seen. One of my favorites is the Leafy Seadragon which basically looks like a bunch of floating / swimming leaves. When I read the label that says “Leafy Seadragon”, I was like, “Where is it?” and then I noticed that the swimming leaves has a long snout and eyes. Haha. So that was it! :) My most favorite was the Dugong. It’s my first time to see one. It looks so cute and the lower part of it’s body really seems like a mermaid. FYI: The mermaid thing started when a bunch of fishermen saw a dugong swimming on the ocean. They thought it was a girl with fins and fishtail. :D

4. Singapore Flyer – It is the biggest Ferris wheel in the world. Each capsule can accommodate up to 28 people. Inside it, you can walk around and enjoy the beauty of Singapore. :)

3. Sentosa – I guess everyone who went to Singapore has been to Sentosa. It’s a wonderful place. :) The favorite stuffs we did there are the luge ride and skyride! It was so much fun! :) We bought a ticket for 3x luge ride and skyride ~ yes, that’s how excited my sisters are to try those rides and just like what they say, “Once is never enough!” At first, I was like “Nope, I’m not luge riding! You can’t make me!!” and my sisters and dad were like, “C’mon! It’ll be fun! We won’t leave you behind.” So yeah, majority wins and I’m glad it did. I enjoyed it. On our first ride, HA! It was crazy! I was so scared that I might fall or something (FYI: I fall a lot. Even when I’m just walking, I’d fall. HAHA!) but I enjoyed it so after that first ride, I was like, “ONE MORE TIME!!“. Haha! And the Skyride, it was fun, too! I was just afraid that my slippers would fall on the bushes and trees under us. Haha! :D

2. 4D Magix – also located in Sentosa. We watched a movie about pirates with 4d glasses on. I thought it was just like seeing a 3d movie but there’s an added thrill. When a pirate stamps his feet, the chair we were sitting on would shake. When the water splashes, water will spray on our faces. The part that made me really scream was the scene when a bunch of bees attacked the pirate. On the screen, it seems that the bees are really all over me plus, there’s an effect on my very face and on my back that feels like those bees were really stinging me. Haha! IT WAS CRAZY!! :)

1. Night Safari – I’m a zoo person. Haha. I love seeing big animals on their almost-natural habitat. We explored the whole zoo (at night, of course) riding a tram which looks like the train that goes around in Mall of Asia. :) After the ride, my Dad, sisters and I were not yet that tired so we explored once again… on feet. :) It was fun and scary. Haha! :)
