Uniquely Singapore: Day 2 - Tampines Mall and IKEA

Since Randy, the host, need to work on this day and Ate Sharon is not yet familiar with other SG's tourist destinations we decide to go to the nearest mall from their flat to Tampines Mall and of course to IKEA, one of the reasons why I love Singapore more. Haha!

I bought 2 new lamps and a some box organizers. After the IKEA shopping I finally decided that if given a chance to live inside the IKEA store, I would. LOL.

That is the IKEA lamp I bought for only S$4.75 (I think).

At Tampines Mall, we bought J.Co donuts. Bestest donut ever tasted!!! Sorry no photo, donuts were too delicious I couldn't take a single photo. =D

I'm selling Victoria's Secret, Bath and Body Works Mists and Lotion for a low Price! Message me if interested. Resellers are also welcome. =)

Imperial Palace at Mactan, Cebu

Finally, I was able to get the photos from mom's camera during our Imperial Palace outing last Oct 25. I'm not going to upload all of them because they are too many. Here are some of the best photos (I think!) taken.

This is me with my bestEST cousin in the whole wide world, Karen.

 

The Slide area.

This is the kid's pool area. It's a lot of fun here than on the adult's pool.

 The beach area (photo below).

new PICSTOPIA template

Yes, this is my new template, called Blue Sky. I'm not sure why it's called as such though. =) I got the template from BTemplates.com while googling around for blogger templates. I picked this design because I felt at home with it. Love the pastel colors, simple and yet 'artsy' look.

So, what do you think of the new template?

great weekend

Yesterday was mom's 52nd birthday (Happy birthday ma!) and the family had a small get together party at Alcoy. I ate too much chocolate surprise, I should really discipline myself on chooding the right kinds of food.

Continuing the festivities the family decided to try out Cebu's first waterpark theme resort: The Imperial Palace in Mactan Cebu. The place set us back around 1500 php per person (day adventure package), and was worth it. Thanks Ma! =) My brothers had so much fun with the big slides, and wanted to try them myself. Unfortunately fear got the best of me. Maybe Ill try again next time when my most handsamu boyfriend is with me to give me strength and courage.

I'll upload photos soon.

Neeway,signing off early tonight because I need to get some shut eye. I'm going somewhere tomorrow that might change my future. Sorry can't tell more about it for now. Wish me luck.

just another ordinary day

Current location: My hometown - Alcoy.

Today was just another ordinary working day for me. The only difference is that I'm working from Alcoy. Like any other day I worked only 8 hours for today (8 hours and 21 minutes to be exact). =)

I love the weather today. No sun or rain. And it's windy.

I signed up for a new game on Facebook today, its called Cafe World. It's just like Restaurant City. Difference is that Cafe World employees don't die (Yey for that!) but the foods get spoiled (Boo for that!). But overall, it is a fun game. Addictive even.

Do you have Facebook account? Try out the Cafe World game.

a trip down south - alcoy, cebu

Last September 26, together with the Deculture Boys (Dre, Bert, Hans)
we went to Alcoy, Cebu, my hometown. Of course when you're in Alcoy you could not miss going to the popular Tingko Beach.

The weather that day was rainy but we still manage to have a short photshoot.
Go Deculture boys!

The boys went for a swim while I'm at the seashore taking care of their cool stuff.

Pose of the day: RIDER KIIIIICK!!!

It was a funfilled Saturday!!!! I want moar trips like this.

career update

I'm technically unemployed.

Hmm.. The outsourcing company I've been working for more than 3 years closed down last August (but this isn't the reason why I have not updated this blog). But got an offer from them to still work for them as a remote worker or home-based employee. Contract based. No benefits and healthcare. I took the "new" job. Well until now I'm adjusting to schedule but I'm good.

Some advantages of working from home.
1. Work anytime I want.
2. Spend more time with Dre and family.
3. Not paying any taxes. ^_^
4. Can work wearing my pajamas and a lot more.

i'm alive and well

Yeah, it has been more than 2 months since my last post. Like everyone else there are so many reasons why I have not posted any new adventures here in Picstopia which I do not wish to share to everyone what those reasons are.

I pretty much alive and well! And hope to be back for good. I hope to post new adventures every week. I won't promise but I'll try my best.

we turned 5 yesterday!

episode 7: weekend sessions

A few shots of Mikuru Asahina, character from the popular anime series "The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya", serving us pastries, cakes and shakes at Vanille, The Terraces.

Shining Tears Elwing visited us last Sunday and had a quick photoshoot.

After this photoshoot, I realized my T77 can take DSLR-ish quality photos.
Thanks Adrian for teaching me the techniques!
