For the Love of Royce


The other day, our manager gave us Royce Champagne and I was intrigued when she said that it costs around 600 pesos. To my amazement, I did not hesitate to try a single bar. And wow I super loved the fine texture.

I found out that Royce is a Japanese chocolate. It can be bought locally from Rockwell and Greenhills.

Since today is my payday, I rewarded myself with two flavors, bitter and cherry. Yay! Goodbye diet! haha!

Paper Clay Art

We were walking around SM when we saw this thing. I told my husband that I want to try this one out since I'm fond of playing with clays. My hubby picked this design for me.





The package includes the image on board, several colors of paper clay and two sticks.




You just need to apply the desired colors on the pattern below using the two sticks, after 20-30 minutes the clay will harden and will produce an embossed like art. If the clay won't stick on the board, you can add some water on the paper clay.



It took me 5 hours to make this one. Like it took forever. Hirap pala, hehe! I remember tuloy my pre school days were I am really excited to apply colors on my coloring books.

Singapore FAQs

Immigration

The officer normally grants the visitor a 14 or 30 day social visit pass. I'm not quite sure if there are instances where they give less than 14 days for tourists.


Transportation

MRT and LRT System Map can be found on each train station, however it is still advisable to have a map on hand. The link below will show you the map which you can print for your own reference.




There are designated stops for the buses, you can't just flag them anywhere. These vehicles are numbered.




The most expensive way of transportation is Taxi. Drivers provides receipt after each ride.

(Hindi po nangongontrata ang mga taxi dun. hehe!)

A singapore tourist pass which provides unlimited ride to train and buses can also be bought, but if you are to visit two sites a day, you won't get to maximize the S$8 per day fee. It will still be cheaper to buy a single journey ticket.

On every vehicle, the driver is on the right side so be careful when crossing the street, always look to your left and right.



Where to Stay

Of course there are lots of Hotel in Singapore, if you have enough money to spend, there's Fullerton Hotel, Meritus Mandarin and other big hotels waiting for you. But if you don't have much, you can try the backpacker's hostel ranging from S$20 to S$38 dollars (including breakfast). So always try to search the net for the most affordable one if you're on a tight budget, anyway you will always be out of your room.
