Singapore :))

Last Dec 19-21, we had a vacation in Singapore and we really had fun! :)) We arrived there at around 5 or 6 in the evening and someone picked us up, Anthony. He drove us to our hotel and we checked in first before having our dinner. We stayed in Fragrance Hotel in Geylang St. Lorong 6. We tried Chinese food for dinner and it was good. We ordered prawns, chicken, vegetables and fish which was still on fire when served. It was nice to try Chinese food but it's really different from the foods here. We went back to the hotel after and rested. It was tiring and the next day was really tiring also. We woke up around 6 in the morning and get ready because someone will pick us up at 8:30. My dad bought breakfast and we ate in the hotel. Vincent, another driver/tour guide, picked us up and the other tourists and drove to Universal Studios. The other tourists were also Filipino. We arrived at the Universal Studious at around 10 and waited for it to open at 10:30. There were a lot of people visiting too from different places. There were Japanese, English, Indians, Americans and others. There are also Filipinos that we met. We tried Transformers 4D first and it was really nice. They also took picture of us while screaming and our mouths were really big because we were screaming. We always laugh every time we see it and it was a  really great memory. Next was The Mummy which was also good. It was 4D also and scary. I remembered my mom when she told me she was really scared and won't try it again. Haha. xD We took pictures everywhere and enjoyed every attraction we saw. We had lunch at Ben and Jerry's and continued our day after. We went to Shrek 4D then to the Waterworld Show. The guys there were splashing water to the tourists and having fun while seeing them get wet. They had a little game and they were funny. The show was about a lost island and something like saving it from pirates. We didn't get wet because we sat at the safe zone. Next was Madagascar where we went inside and watched a little show while riding n a boat. We also tried the one like cable car and we fall in line like half an hour but the ride was only just for a minute. Haha. xD Then walked around the Hollywood and watched a show where the dancers were Filipinos. We also tried the roller coaster Human which was very very exciting. I felt nervous at first but when it was finished I was like trying to fall in line to the other roller coaster. I actually thought of backing out but when we were already the ones to ride, i told myself that I can do that. And because my little sisters were there too that was why I had to be strong. LOL. Because if I showed them that I'm scared, they will probably be scared too. Mom and dad didn't come with us because they were dizzy already because of the 3 4Ds that we tried. Haha. xD We had to go back to the parking before 5 because Vincent will pick us up there and he said that he didn't want to wait for someone who would be late. We took a lot of pictures and my cellphone actually run out of space so i had to delete sme songs. Hehe. After US, Vincent dropped us at the shopping district and instructed us how to go back to our hotel. There were a lot of malls and the items are really expensive. We bought bags, wallet and perfume. I bought a bag for 100$ and it was already discounted. We went to Takashimaya mall and Paragon Mall. After a long walk, we reached the hotel and it was really tiring. We had dinner at the hotel and rested after. Aly and Yana also switched room because Yana and Ate Anne did something else before going to sleep. I and Yana were originally the roommates but the second night it was I and Aly. Second night was done and the third day came. We woke up a little early the  because we still had a long day ahead. Another man, Sam, picked us up and the other tourist and that time they were from South Africa. I forgot their names but they were nice. They're actually teachers and they've been to a lot of places already. We went to the Singapore flyer first then to Merlion park where we had fun taking our pictures with the big lion. My dad shots were funny and my sister was competing with him. After, Sam brought us to a chocolate factory and Jewelry factory. He let us buy pasalubongs and buy other items for ourselves. Then we went to a temple and told us that if we want better grades, we should pray to one of the Chinese god there which was Confucius. We really had a long day and lunch was a bit disappointing. I really love trying different foods but that time we were not in the mood to try any. we had Malaysian food which we didn't actually like because of the taste. Maybe we were not just used to it but the chicken was good though. We waited for Anthony in the hotel and while waiting we rent a PC. I was facebooking when Aly used her secret weapon on me, 3 times, and it was disgusting. I wasn't able to get revenge but it was okay because I was not her only victim, Ate Anne too. So waited and waited for Anthony until it was 3m he was late but it was okay. We reached the airport and checked in our baggage and waited for our departure time which was delayed for about an hour or two. We had snacks and just sat around and surfed the internet. 5:40pm, we went to gate 5 and waited. The plane took off so late and some were already complaining. We landed at around 10:30 or 11 and Tito Tok waited for so long because we told him that we'll  be landing at around 9pm but actually get off the plane 10:30 in the evening. He came with a friend and we ate at Chowking in Eastwood. It was around 12:30 am when we reached home it was really a long day. We fixed ourselves then rested.

Those 3 days were memorable, so many had happened and it was really a vacation to remember because my dad and mom were with us. We had a good time though I still had bad times. Hehe..xD Now we are looking forward on Christmas and I know it would  be memorable too. So, tell you about it later and Merry Christmas! :))
