Once upon a time, when I had a lot of money and I was born to spend a lazy days lying on the Siloso Beach drinking mango juice. Oh, well, in my dreams it would be like that, but the reality is another story though. Actually we had a field trip to that luxurious resorts. Kind of a funny thing that this resort, targeted for honeymooners and lovers and "true romance seekers" is only 5 minutes way from our school. So near but still so far.. It's location is said to be excellent, just at the heart of Singapore's hippest beach [View Full Entry]

K.L. like the locals call their city is the capital and the largest city of Malaysia. There would be so many things to tell about our weekend visit there, that I could almost write a book, but now I will try to stick to the relevant. Since the public transport and the condition of the roads is so good, we decided to take a train to Kuala Lumpur, which was a nice decision. All those landscapes, local people and pineapple trees ( they seemed pineapple trees, but I'm not exactly sure if they were..) almost took my breath away. It was [View Full Entry]

One of the many many things I like here in S'pore is , that you never know what to expect when going to different places. I don't personally even want to know every detail and do some deep research beforehand about the places where we are going. Thus far we have never disappointed about anything. This morning the feeling after yesterday's hard pedaling was surprisingly good, let's not talk about my reddish back.. so we decided to pay a visit to Singapore Botanic Gardens and spend a lazy Sunday afternoon there. The Botanic Garden is said to be one of the [View Full Entry]

To tell you the truth, we didn't know that much about the island beforehand. Just that Pulau Ubin is one of the last rural areas to be found in Singapore. Going there was exiting, because Pulau Ubin is an island off the northeastern coast of Singapore we needed to take a ferry boat from Changi Village jetty terminal. And which kind of boat it was! Far away was luxurious and glory, but still so comfortable and easy. There was no tight schedules in the terminal. Every boat was waiting as long as there was 12 passengers on the boat, but practically [View Full Entry]

Me and my new friend Singapore have started to come along together pretty well. There's nothing special, not yet, that would make me irritated or frustrated. Rather to be irritated, I'm amazed and speechless still many times a day. Yesterday we went to see some movie, and this theater was (if it's even possible) better than the previous one where we were last week. Whole the building was made for the movies: 12 halls and 9 levels all somehow connected to movies, there was e.g. a specific playing areas for groups or individuals, area were was possible to rent board games, [View Full Entry]

Our destination for the crazy halloween night was Zouk, the coolest night club in Spore like the locals had told us. Entrance was expensive (33 singaporean dollars) but it included two drinks. Also the term "bar queue" got the new meaning.. With the costume the entry for the club was free and we saw amazing outfits from the Jokers and superman's to geisha's and teddy bears. There was also one banana. Some people had really made an effort to get in. But like it came out, there were also two bars next to each others! and of course we were in [View Full Entry]

If I had tried to imagine the place full and packed of people eating and hanging out on the streets beforehand, I wouldn´t have guess which kind of mess it can be. All the streets were congested and full of people ( read men). We tried to walk through Festival Arcade were they sell everything from sweets to wooden statues and everything between. For us those masses of people were just too much to handle and get along with. We still has our own New Year's party and couple weeks after that The Chinese New Year. Oh well, at least we [View Full Entry]

Today was my friend name day and we were just walking aimlessly without any clue ( or actually we had some) which we should do. That took us past Prinsep Street and we chanced upon this : MANGA KISSa, Japanese Style Comic Cafe. My friend went crazy when seeing it so there was no doubt should we go in or not. The Cafe was adorable and really different from those where we have been visiting this far. MANGA KISSa was full of manga books, actually there was more than 16,000 comics packed within the 180 sq meter space. There’s around 13,000 [View Full Entry]

I am still as amazed as I was at the very first days in Singapore. Our lecturer said quite eloquently that this is the smallest island in Asia ( yes, we all know it is not actually the smallest..) but meanwhile there is the biggest number of hotels, enterprises and other leisure activities in the same island. In Singapore one can do a lot of things in a very short time. And almost every human groups are represented here. In our own are Hindus are preparing themselves to Deepavali. In cases there is someone interested in what does this festival really [View Full Entry]

"ABOUT SINGAPORE JURONG GARDENS: Built in 1975 and designed by Prof. Yuen-chen Yu, a well-known architect from Taiwan, the Chinese Garden’s concept is based on Chinese gardening art. The main characteristic is the integration of splendid architectural features with the natural environment. The Chinese Garden is modeled along the northern Chinese imperial style of architecture and landscaping." Except of The Chinese Garden, there was Japanese,- and Bonsai Gardens, which cost an estimate $3.8 million to build. This 5,800 sq meters garden with Suzhou-style buildings and landscape hous [View Full Entry]
