Light to Night Festival 2019




This is a free festival by the National Gallery Singapore around the City Hall area which you should go. I went for both events which was the Singapore Art Week and the SG Bicentennial of which the latter is currently on-going. Honestly, the Art Week one was more happening but I think some of the exhibits along the pavement are still around and they're totally instagram worthy.


For now if you go, you will get to see projections on the facades of the National Gallery in the theme of SG Bicentennial. 



I think the highlight was the one Kumar, a local and famous comedian and cross dresser, did his 45 minute stand up comedy routine and there were so many laugh out loud moments literally every few seconds, haha. He was that good. All this mostly based on his interactions and observations in Singapore. Of course he poked fun at the different nationalities besides just Singaporeans and earlier at one point, I felt I was also targeted for being that 38 year single woman, haha. No, it's not because I am picky...or am I? haha..

For the SG Bicentennial, the Friday show at 10.00 featured Hirzi, another local youtuber, writer and director, who was also funny and did a comedy roast of the founding fathers of Singapore. His jokes on Sir Stamford Raffles, who got roasted the most, were funny but true though. I strangely agreed what he had to say about it such as giving credit to those people who came to explore before him but yet Stamford Raffles got the honour of being the founder.

For the food, I enjoyed having the Meatball in a Bucket, where they put in meatballs with some mashed potato and fries in a small plastic bucket, all for $10.

For the SAW, these were found along the the various spots of the City Hall area.

Enjoy the pics below!









This was not part of the festival, obviously lols, but I remembered taking a picture here as well around 2010 I think and that was so long ago. I wanted to recreate the look but was not brave enough to do the 'point to something' look. I thought this was well taken and something like an OOTD, haha.

Birthday Gathering & House Hunting

Last week, I celebrated a friend of mine's belated birthday together with another friend at her condo. Sadly, this would be the last time we would hold the celebration at her place because she has finally managed to sell off her condo unit after one year of looking for a buyer. Mostly we used the swimming pool facilities although the two of us didn't swim at all but just chill under the shade. We brought home cooked food and I really appreciated my friend for doing this for us, thinking about how the young son of a friend of us would love the swimming pool for kids. She is so selfless and kind to her friends and I'm truly blessed to have her in my life.  While one was selling off the house, the other friend was on the verge of getting a dream house for herself and her young son. In life, we have many priorities and things to look forward to. Each of our dreams and aspirations are different from one another, like for me, getting a house is not a priority at the moment.  ...

A Reminder to the Living

Recently, we lost our former President when he passed away at the age of 92. He was known to have his heart for the people although those who worked closely with him couldn't actually picture him as that for he was a taskmaster when it came to work. He did his own narratives and do the best that he could as he knew where he came from and wanted to make good out of his life.  He showed that the circumstances that we are in can't stop us from going far in life. We should continue to focus on our actions, has strong dedication and when things get difficult, look at the bigger picture and understand why we are here. Ultimately, we should all be working towards the purpose we have in mind which makes things easier to cope. Thank you for helping the Singaporeans especially those who needed help most. You would always be the people's President. On the other spectrum, a young child had also lost his life. A few of my colleagues witnessed the events which unfolded in front of...
