The Land of Carefree

I have always loved Singapore for some reasons. In fact, I guess every sane person will love Singapore. Apart from the high tax its citizens are subjected to pay, I can't think of any reasons NOT to love it. Yes, we're here in Indonesia should be thankful that a large portion of our citizens can still avoid paying tax and easily walk out of the said obligation without any difficulties.
Should we be thankful or shameful? Well, it is a long endless discussion and I am not here to talk about it.

Now, back to my Singapore big crush. First, I think everyone will agree that Singapore is a safe place to travel. No worries on muggers, robbers or thieves. You leave your shopping bags in this store, you go back half an hour later to find them, there they are..... still there, perfectly safe, remain untouched. Well, at least from my experience, the shopkeepers kept them for me. :D
(What kind of stupid head forgot their shopping bags? Me).

And I love love love the Old Chang Kee in Orchard Road, but I couldn't find the stall when I was there last September. They must be still in business, no? I miss Old Chang Kee dearly...... T_T

I love the shopping malls.

I love the magazine stalls and the book stores.

I love the wide and clean roads. Although, I think Singapore isn't as clean as it was anymore. Too many tourists indeed has a downside in a country's cleanliness.

However............... I don't like the food. ( Sorry,but it is 1-0 for Medan in food department).

I think I don't need to gush more about Singapore cause I'm sure everyone knows what I mean already. :D

Here are 6 days in Singapore, the land of carefree and shopping spree :

China Town at night. It is fully illuminated and decorated to welcome the Moon-cake Festival.

Weee........ first day in Singapore..... jubilant!!!!!

Photobucket

I was wearing a white shirt and a pair of navy short, with a cute black bow pin. I was pulling a nerdy look that day san the signature nerdy glasses because my face is like a fucking wide wooden tray when I'm wearing one. My boyfriend said that I looked like a casino employee, all I needed was just a blazer then I was good to go. (roll eyes)

Photobucket

Yes, I like taking pictures with designer logos. They are just very artistic.

P.S : The Louboutin shoes are OMGtheyaresodamnfantasticIalmostdietouchingthem.

Yes, just call me villager or whatever you like. Can't care.
In fact, I have more pictures of me posing in front of other boutiques but not posted here only because I am too lazy to edit them and besides I'm worried you all can't take my persona if I reveal it too much.
LOL. Puke blood.

Vivo City

Photobucket

Hard Rock Cafe and Casino entrance.
I wore a lace sleeveless top, a pair of floral shorts, a black sling bag, a pair of flip flop and an aviator. Lace top is hard to care. Too delicate a material. That's why I wore no accessories that day or else they would get stuck in it.
The petite girl next to me is my boyfriend's sister in law. She is a mad shopper, too.

Photobucket

Watching the Russian theatrical rock circus "Voyage de la Vie". The ticket is mad expensive but their performance is worth the money.

Photobucket

I love my aviators but I think they don't fit my face shape and as a result I look like a beetle.
Wayfarers fit my face shape much better.

Photobucket

Adding more fat to my fat bank.

Photobucket

And the popular singing fountain or fountain of youth or wtf the name is I don't know.

Photobucket

This isn't the best pic of us. Both looking so round and plump.

Photobucket

But we are happy. :D

Photobucket

Photobucket

Fruit cake!!!!! Look at the selections on the top half.

Photobucket

Hihihihi..............

Photobucket

Then, back to shopping. Posing the super shopper pose.

Photobucket

Here we are, at Universal Studio Singapore. I thought it would be a windy day cause it rained the day before, so look at me all wrapped in over-sized sweater and dotted skirt and dot patterned stocking. And it turned out, the sun was shining ultra brightly and without mercy and I felt so stupid. Hahaha. But nothing could stop me from having fun despite the heat. :D :D :D

I took lots of pictures of almost every corner of the studio. Egypt, New York, Madagascar, Electronic City, Dinosaur Land etc etc.

Photobucket

"I don't know what" and Kungfu Panda

Photobucket

Photobucket

Gloria from Madagascar has a cafe.

Photobucket

Various spots in the studio

Photobucket

These are landscapes of New York

Photobucket

More of New York . You can see the subway there. Hahaha.

Photobucket

Diner and bakery

Photobucket

And here below is Egypt :

Photobucket

Wondering how they had these two gigantic statue moved into the site.

Photobucket

I'm stunned with all the buildings and all the effort they have put into making the sites so identical with the one in the movies.

And not less important, a girl must camwhore.

Photobucket

Photobucket

Yes, a wayfarer fits me better than an aviator.

Photobucket

Relaxing on a sunny day at a boulevard cafe, as if............

Photobucket

This resembles the scene in Gossip Girls, doesn't it?
The staircases I mean, not the object!!!!

Photobucket

Two New Yorkers at Upper East Side.
LOL

One useful tip : never visit the studio during high peak holiday season, because you will end up getting grumpy and feeling extremely annoyed, thanks to the pouring visitors.
And since I am a very impatient person, I refused to stand in line for 45 minutes or 75 minutes just to take a stupid childish ride in Egypt ???
Helloo....... is that ride so much fun? You ppl can't find other more exciting to do that queuing up for the ride???
( although honestly I myself really really wanted to experience all the fun rides if not why would I pay so much for the entrance fee???? But I didn't get the chance to do any ride at all!!!!! T_T ).

Photobucket

Last day in Singapore. On our way to having breakfast in China town.
This is epic. I have successfully trained my boyfriend into becoming a paparazzi. Hahaha.

Photobucket

At the airport, goofing around with the trolley.
