I have always wanted to visit and go out of the country when I was little... Alas, time came when I finally got my chance of visiting a foreign place with one of my best high school chum. I was excited to see a whole new world for the first time in my 25 years on this green planet. In truth, though i tried to hide it, I was looking forward to the whole trip the whole time since we booked the flight months before the travel date. As the days grew near I lost interest with work and other usual stuff that normally amuses me since I can't take Singapore off my mind.
We left for Singapore on a Saturday, November 10, 2012 full of excitement in our eyes. The high travel taxes and terminal fee from the local airport in Mactan Cebu did not change whatever we felt that night. We arrived in Singapore around 11 in the evening but never felt sleepy at this wee hour. We wandered a bit and was really glad with the hotel where we stayed because of the Filipino folks who worked there. The next day was spent strolling about with our dear friend who's already working there. We went shopping and picture taking here and there and was amazed at how beautiful and clean the entire country was and how disciplined the citizens were. I had sore feet that night but then again, it was all worth it. Our last day was then spent for the city tour which I believe was kinda late to be scheduled since we already saw almost the entirety of the city thanks to our good friend who was our tour guide and photographer. My best memory of Singapore was spent at the Universal Studios where I felt like I was a kid again. We watched all shows from water world, donkey live, to monster rock, and then tried several rides, the best of which was the cyclone vs human roller coaster ride. Indeed, it was the best ride ever in my whole damn life! weeee... ^_^
Here are some photos we took during our short yet memorable vacation :)
