Singapore Garden Festival is here!! It is held at Garden by the Bay between 16 Aug to 24 Aug 2014. There are a few highlights to this event: Landscape and Fantasy Garden, Floral Windows to the World, Balcony Gardens,Orchid Extravaganza, Garden Fiesta and Vibrant Market Place. If you want to know about the events, you can go to their website for more information.

The festival stretches from Flower Dome and all the way to the Supertree Grove and the Meadow.

Besides admiring various exotic flowers species, i was also there to take photos and more photos.

You can purchase the tickets at the ticketing booth near the Flower Dome.

There were super lots of people during that day as many of them went in groups with their committee. We were there at about 1pm and the carpark was almost full.

Took photo with the pillar which was displayed with orchids. Pretty indeed.

Many of the visitors brought along their professional DSLR and tripod. Of course there were some of us who relied heavily on our phone camera. Whichever it was, all of us were trying to capture a shot of those pretty flowers. In order to take the best shot, most of us were queuing up to take turn for the shoot. Can you just imagine how crowded it was on last Sunday?!

My mum was in mood to take photo haha

Ah ah!! Don't touch it bii!

The oldies were taking their time strolling around Flower Dome. Beside enjoying the aircon, they were also enjoying the fresh air from the plants. If they could, i know they will want to stay in the Dome for the whole afternoon.

My dad didn't like to take photo. That was why he looked damned fierce.

Before we went to Garden By the Bay, i went to remove my lash extension. I did not have anything on my eye after that. That explained my tired eyes.

We left the Dome for the outdoor as we were afraid that we did not have enough time for the other events. Out at the Supertree Grove, there were vendors selling their products such as plant pesticide, seeds, mini potted plants etc. One of the vendor was selling pitcher plant too!

While walking, i saw this big leaf which is huge enough to cover my upper body.Reminds me of those naked man who used leaf to cover themselves in movies.

We walked towards The Meadow as there were more to see. It is an indoor tent. When you enter, it is quite dark and the floor was uneven. If you have kids, its better not to let them run about as freely.

In each tent, there were different activities running simultaneously. One of them was displaying designer art work using flowers and artifacts.

In another area, it was displaying home living decor.

Every design is unique.

There is another tent where residents from various GRC display their plants they grew in their community.

At the outdoor... ...

As the garden festival was huge, we took the whole afternoon to explore before going for our dinner. We might have missed some of the areas as there were too many people. Going on the week day would be better but I did not have the time to do so.

If you have time to spare over this weekend , you can visit SGF. The price for visit is as follows:

Hohoho! Its another week today. Last week was fun as national day falls on last thursday. I haven get a weekday off since start of work. But anyway, it was so very fun day with my dear of course. Photo taking session and a sunburn day. In the morning, dear drove us to marina barrage. We could have fly kite but we didn't cause they might disallow us to. So, we place our mat, sit down and drink bubble tea. Earlier, we had fish mahanttan for lunch.

We camped at marina barrage for whole hot sunny afternoon before changing place at garden by the bay.As i did not apply body moisturiser, i opened my uv umbrella. The wind was blowing. I hide under my umbrella, and enjoyed the cooling breeze. Dear was trying to act macho, saying that he dont need umbrella, but finally he gave in cause it was surely very hot out there :x

After sitting for quite a while, we decided to take our our camera and tripod. It was so fun playing with the tripod!! When i was trying to upload the photos.. i realised we took a lot of funny shots and some nice one. So funny. Some poses are just so.... wahahahaha!

Maybe i will post some ugly ones here.

In the evening time, dear and walked towards to the garden by the bay and took some morning shots. We walked fairly a bit and decided to settled at meadow. We played around there and setting up out mat once again. It was really funny, moving place to place with our bags, camera and mats haha.

As we thought that we would have a nice view, we waited patiently for the fireworks to appear. But, who knows the MBS is so majestic and it blocked 3/4 of my fireworks -.- Though it was almost all block, i never regret sitting there with dear. Because, it was really a fun day.

Im so scared of the sun~~

Nice scenery

Dear take umbrella until so gay :x

So red so prominent

This is a funny photo

What?! Had we jumped?

National Day At Marina Barrage + Garden by the bay

Hohoho! Its another week today. Last week was fun as national day falls on last thursday. I haven get a weekday off since start of work. But...

Updating my post is a way to keep track of our activities. It has also been fun doing so. Uploading photos could be troublesome but it's really boring without them. So let's start off......

Saturday.

I met dear early in the morning to collect my graduation gown at serangoon broadway studio at 11.30am. He had just finished working the midnight shift and without any rest, he came to find me after work. I collected my graduation gown within 20 minutes before making our way to serangoon mrt station to collect our mask. The graduation gown is pretty nice as it has STREAKS OF PURPLE. I like purple ^^. Shall take a photo of it during my graduation day. I balloted for 1 more tickets and so luckily, i was successful in balloting the ticket. So, my mum, dad and dear will be going for my graduation day!!

In the afternoon, we had hot tomato as our lunch before going to shiqi's house to visit her. She is in good health and she is recovering well. We visited her with bird nest haha. She deserves it :) At night, i had dinner with my family at jpot. It was delicious to me of course. Cause i like the food there. Straight after dinner, we had movies at Shaw, watching Total Recall. The movie was pretty confused but the storyline was still alright. the story kinda of like happened too fast and everything was done too quickly. In my opinion, the movie deserved a rating of 7 out of 10.

Dear hadn't had any wink for 24 hours. I can see that he was tired but he is 嘴硬. He insisted that he wasn't tired. Only fools believes him :x Dear ah, get more rest wor. I don't want you to have bad headaches because of lacking of sleep. Im feeling guilty.

At the Jpot. Yummy!

A photo together!

Mum and dad.

On Sunday, Dear had a good sleep till late morning :) He needed more rest so today, we met late. We had magee mee for lunch and i prepared an egg to go together with our magee. After filling our stomachs, dear fetched mum and dad to toyogo to buy some containers. And also, i went to buy some office supplies. Boss has been nagging me about the printer for days.

During evening time, we went to Garden by the Bay to walk. We had prepared our camera, tripod to take beautiful shots our the scenery and ourselves. It was a great day taking photos. Though there isn't lot of nice photos, we still enjoyed ours elf to the max!

Dear, you have to get more sleep le. Your deprived sleep is giving you headaches now and then. It is not good for your health at all. Sacrifice your show for more sleep, you really need it more than anything else. You have to take care of yourself. Only then you can take care of me ;p Muackz
