Travel Diary: Chinese Garden

Hi guys! So last week I went to Chinese Garden. This place is so instagrammable worthy.

Chinese Garden is a park in Jurong East. The main characteristic is the integration of splendid architectural features with the natural environment. It is so peaceful and relaxing. Who would have thought it is in Singapore, one of the busiest country in the world.

Photos taken at the Red Bridge entrance of the garden.

Upon approaching the garden, there is a Red Bridge that will lead you in. This Red Bridge symbolises good luck and is an auspicious colour for the Chinese. (Wikipedia)

(I really wish it brings good luck to me! I can feel it! Hahaha)

Entrance in the 'Ru Yun T'a.

The ‘Ru Yun T’a) (7-storey pagoda) is situated on a small hill in the Chinese Garden. Its typical pagoda design follows the style of Ling Ku Temple Pagoda at Nanjing. (Wikipedia)

Photo taken inside the Pagoda

Next stop is the Twin Pagoda.

There's a lot of greenery and a lot of picture perfect spot here like these. I don't know the exact name of this places but for sure once you're inside you'll spot these.

(I feel like a fairy!)

This one is inside the Turtle and Tortoise museum.

(There's a lot of Koi fish! This look like I return back in time living in a palace feeling like a Chinese princess.)

WHAT I WORE?

TOP - PINK SLEEVELESS from H&M
BOTTOM - High Waisted short from COTTON ON

Flowy Dress From Chinese brand (I can't remember)

Picture Taking Tip: The place is so big so a lot of walking is required. And also take note we went there during weekdays so not really a lot of people there. And after 12:00 the heat is unbearable already. So be there early to avoid haggardness (hahaha). The gardens open 6:00 am.

HOW TO GET HERE?

SEE THE RED HEART?!

Just get on the green lane train and alight in the CHINESE GARDEN station.

Did you know?

The Chinese Garden station looks just like a PAGODA!

HOW I LOSE 5kg IN 100 DAYS

HOW I LOSE 5kg IN 100 DAYS Hi guys! So last Feb my colleague and I started this biggest loser/gainer contest. At first I’m actually skeptical about it coz I don’t think I can lose any weight anymore and I really don’t like losing money (Hahaha). The bet in our contest is 30sgd or 1070php. (And I think that’s a lot!) But due to my colleagues convictions but I’d rather say bullying i joined. I’m actually very competitive person and I really did my best to win. And guess what? I won! Chaching Back to our topic I can say that I didn’t starve myself to lose weight and I didn’t do any extreme exercises. So what did I eat and what did I do? Keep on reading... WHAT DID I EAT? Have you heard of the saying, ‘During breakfast eat like a king, lunch eat like a prince and dinner like a pauper’. Ganyan ang ginawa ko. BREAKFAST I always eat heavy breakfast. 1/2 cup of rice and any ulam na may sabaw like tinola, nilaga, sinigang etc. And with fruits yan like pineapple,

ARCHERY 101

KODANDA ARCHERY RANGE I really wanted to try archery and it is in my bucketlist or things to do before I die. So I bought it in ENSOGO. Nakapromo sya so yah from 580 to 377? Not bad. HAHAHA The Kodanda Archery Range in BF homes is so cozy. Napakalakas ng aircon so hindi ka talaga pagpapawisan. The thing about sa voucher dun sa ENSOGO is redeemable lang sya every weekend 11 - 2 pm. So yung pagpunta dun ang mainit. HAHAHA So I'll talk more about the experience. Yung bow is kinda heavy. My left arm still hurts now. Kailangan kasi tuwid paghold mo sa bow. And then yung pagstretch mo sa string kailangan malakas din in short dapat may force. You need to close your left eyes para makatarget. It is so fun! Lalo na nung nakabull's eye ako. Actually goal ko lang nyan is makatama ako sa yellow. Bwahaha more than what I expected! AMAZING! What I'm wearing? Simpleng pangjogging lang. HAHAHA White shirt and leggings and my rubber shoes given to me by

Just to clarify I am not an expert, I just want to share what I've learned. (NO HATE GUYS, JUST LOVE) FINANCE - management of a supply of money 1. TIME IS GOLD - SPEND IT WISELY. This stage in your life is the best time to start EDUCATING YOURSELF. Learn from your past mistakes and also learn from the people around you. Think of this: I know at this stage, andyan yung mga barkada na lagi nagaaya ng night out, labas dito, inom doon and kinabukasan pag may hangover mapapashit na lang tayo at sasabihing di na uulit. Hanggang sa maging cycle na,di na uulit pero ulit-ulit pa din and what will you gain in that cycle? Probably disease and also utang kung puro gimik na lang lagi. Think of all the time you could have spend trying to improve yourself. Remember in life you are either growing or dying. SO ST

COVE HAIRLAB DEEP CLEANSE THERAPY (REVIEW)

Healthy long hair starts with a healthy scalp. As you may all know, I really love my long hair and I would love to keep it long until I grow old. However, with my long hair and almost monthly touch ups (coz my hair is bleached and coloured), my scalp isn’t as healthy as I would like it to be. Being totally honest, I often neglect my scalp, so when Sample Store invited me to experience Cove Hairlab Deep Cleanse Scalp Therapy, I was really excited! Cove Hairlab (by Cove Aesthetics) has doctor-designed hair and scalp treatments to combat hair loss, regain hair strength and defy grey hair. I am so thankful to Amber (Scalp Expert) for enlightening me with regards to my scalp and for sharing a lot of tips on how I can keep my scalp healthy. Cove Entrance Cove Hairlab has a very relaxing ambience. Doesn't really feel clinic-y at all and the staffs are all nice and friendly. Medispa's ambience So lately I've been seeing a lot of white stuff on
