My Singapore Adventure: Day 1

Manila: 5:30pm

Rushed to Mall of Asia coming from my God-daughter's birthday party. I had to buy a few things, chippy and tortillos for james and krispy kreme for mike. Papa was patiently waiting for me outside the mall, so he didn't have to park, after 15 minutes, I was in his car, on the way to the newly-opened NAIA Terminal 3 (nothing to be excited about, di pa ayos eh.)

Manila: 7:00pm
Checked in most of the baggage, patiently waiting to board, Dianne, Tita and Sir Glen were hungry so we ordered in a Jollibee kiosk that offered chicken in jolly hotdog styros. I didn't want to ruin my trip so I just took whatever's available.

Manila: 8:30pm
We were supposed to board but then again, out flight was not being called yet. An hour and a half later, we were asked to transfer to a different gate. Talk about hassle.

Manila 10:30pm
At last!!! Boarding time! (Sidenote lang: Jacqui Yllana was one of the flight stewards. She's still very pretty.) Within a few minutes, we were airborne. For the first time, I got to sit in a window seat. I really hate flying, I got dizzy within 10 minutes. Fortunately, the last row, was unoccupied, so I stretched out to sleep. I thought I was going to fall asleep easily but guess what, I was near the lavatories, and everytime someone would flush the toilet, I'd wake up. So much for a fun ride.

Singapore: 2 am
Budget Terminal! What a name!! Talagang pinalangdakan na mahirap ako! Still didn't have Singapore dollars, so Dianne paid for the cab ride home. Ate dinner and fell asleep at around 4am. Namahay ako, di ako agad nakatulog.

Singapore: 11am
Went to church with Mike, Dianne, Tita and Sir Glen, I was not able to attend the every nation service because it was so far from Mike's place and I knew I would not be ready in time, plus I didn't know how to get there. Oh my. After church, off to the city! Changed my pesos to dollars. Had my first mrt ride. Took a lot of pictures in Orchard Road! So many shops and malls, too little money!!!

Singapore: 2pm
Lunchtime!! yahoo! Had roasted pork (it was like lechon macau!). After lunch, walk again! super walking ito. Went hotel-hopping. Went to the 76th floor of this very tall building and saw the city. (Pictures to follow!) We also rode the Flyer, the world's largest "ferry's wheel". Took 2 years off my life because of the height! Oh my..

Singapore: 7pm
Marina. Dinner Time! Had Laksa, a local cuisine. Really delicious! Yum yum. Then shopping. There goes my credit card! huhu....

Singapore: 9pm
Home at last! Watched PDA little dreamers, to see Richard judge the kids.. He was too kind. haha.. He's looking a bit slimmer on tv. hhmmm.. I went to bed at around 11:30pm..

Today is another day.. Malamang, maubos na naman pera ko ngayon! waaahh!!!
