I was overwhelmed with how things going on rite recently in my life. There were no harmonies between love, life, work, and everything in between. Every single thing seems shattered into pieces and disconnecting each other. I completely stressed out.
I finally went to a one week getaway to Singapore in order to get back my inner happiness and hoping a fresh start once I come back to Bandung. For the first time in many years, I enjoyed myself without my boyfriend. I'm not saying I didn't miss him, but I feel relieved....without him. One week in Singapore was like a detox for me. I know problems won't literally go away no matter how far we go, but at least when we come back, we can think our problems clearer and in more peaceful way.
Just in time for my brother's birthday, we spent it at Universal Studios and had a great great time! The coasters were freaking us out and I must say that USS is much much better than HongKong's Disneyland. A bit crowded but we got this "express ticket" so we could cut the long queue on some games. So lucky, cos we're not intended to buy the express one. We stucked at one game and as apology, the officers offered us an express ticket. :D
Next, what's so GREAT about Singapore Great Sale. I did some shopping but didn't find the GREAT deal like they promised? However, I was too busy dealing with my lil brother whom -absofuckinlutely- hated shopping. LOL. I didn't buy too much stuff, hehe what should I do? I didn't come to Singapore for shopping at the first place. Besides, I made a promise to myself that I will buy things that I really really really love, so there'll be no regret once I pay it! TRUST me okay? (I know some of my friends who know me will probably laugh at this!) I only bought myself a handbag, couple shoes and dresses.
I've never been to Botanic Garden before, so I was so lucky to go there cos it's breathtaking! Going to a place that far from crowd, surrounded by trees and beautiful flowers, and even a swan lake! I enjoyed every single stride that I walked. Near the end of our long walk, my brother asked for a drink, and then we sat at this simple restaurant called Halia that offered special brunch. We ordered it along with kids menu and surprisingly, the chef himself delivered to our table. It really made our day even though the food (I forgot the name) didn't taste as beautiful as it looks. Hehe.. So we continued our journey and entered to National Orchid Garden. From its name, I reckon you know what's in there right? Orchids were everywherem even the rare ones! Too bad our trip delayed by rain. But luckily, we've had captured some beautiful photos.
All in all, I really enjoyed my trip. First of all, of course because I was accompanied with people whom I love so so much! I treasured the times with you guys... *group hug*. And second of all, I needed this and as expected, I felt content afterwards. Noone knows what I've been dealing with these days. So this trip meant a lot to me.
Like computers and many other gadgets, I think human's brain pretty much works the same too. Sometimes we're facing "black out" or "full of memory" and "lag like hell". That's why we need to refresh ourselves every now and then. Take a short CTRL + ALT + DEL trip and you'll feel better.
Pssst... the pictures are coming soon!
