We we're supposed to go and visit Haji Lane because according to my research this is a best place to take pictures and I would like to try the Teh Tarik. But unfortunately when we're almost in Haji Lane, it rained so we decided to go straight to Bugis Junction instead. We stroll around Bugis and looked for the board game Kuya Danuel wants, the exact board game is not available on the toy shop in Bugis so we ended up buying a different one instead.

As O is looking for the board game I'm also checking out restaurants on the area. Lol

I even found a store that sells pug stuff. I don't know what to buy because you know how obsessed I am with pugs. Lol as what O said this store can also be seen in the Philippines so I might want to check it as well when we got home.

Since its almost lunch time, we ate at Ramen Champion, 1 order cost $15 minimum.

We continued strolling around and went to Lucky Plaza again to have my money changed, to buy ingredients for Sinigang and to buy pasalubong/s for our friends and loved ones. Lucky Plaza is really filled with kababayans (Filipinos). We even spoke with a Filipina cashies, she's been working as a cashier for already 4 years now and her husband is an Engineer there. She's just working as a cashier rather than just staying at home.

Walked again to going to Orchard to look for pasalubong for my mom and to look for the My Pony cards for Kuya Danuel.

Went home and O cooked Sinigang for dinner. It's our last night in SIngapore, I really felt sad about it. Lol

Day 5: September 16,  2015

Our last day in Singapore. Our flight is at 6:40pm :-(

O cooked breakfast and we just stayed home the whole day. We watched some movies. We went out for lunch and went to Tiong Bahru Plaza. Got subway & some Japanese food for lunch and we all had it for take out.

We fixed our stuff and get ready to leave. We left the apartment by 4:00pm, took a cab going to Changi Airport.

Our flight time got changed. Instead of 6:40pm it was moved to 7:00pm. So we still had enough time to stroll around the airport. We ended up eating at Mcdonalds. The menu they have here is very different from what we have in the Philippines.

So this is it. Time to say goodbye to Singapore. I haven't got the chance to explore everything that Singapore offers, but I'll surely come back for more. I did had fun with our 5 days vacation. This was actually my first time to celebrate my birthday without my family, and my first time to travel abroad and hopefully not the last. :-)

How's your Singapore trip? :-)
