Changi Village

Title: Changi Village

Changi Village is really nice and ideal place to nua.. but it is sooo far from my place.. but worth a go if you need a place that has beach, clean air, kampong feel and good food..

It is a special place for me now.. the sea breeze blowing across my face..spending it with someone special and close to my heart..

Occasionally, you see people fishing for fish, crabs.. Huge ships, speedboats cruising across the sea..
The flock of pigeons who attempt to befriend you for the sake of food..

Such a nice place, yet it remains pristine and free from commercialisation.. But how long will it last?

I hope it stays this way at least for my generation.. for us to unwind and nua.. without any disturbances nor noise..

Shooting Stars

Title: Shooting Stars

I have seen countless times of shooting stars.. there are some memorable ones especially in Singapore with loved ones..

Let me attempt to list down those times I saw shooting stars across the sky both in Singapore and overseas..

Singapore
1. I was in a restaurant high on top of hotel eating Dim Sum when I saw a shooting star fell down.. No one at the table saw it except me..

2. At the chalet at east coast for OAC gathering in JC days, shooting star just flew across the sky.. My friends thought that must be a plane flying past but I am dead sure it's a shooting star..

3. I was at east coast park near the changi side with Charles talking.. Saw this green light shoot across and mistook it as light stick until Charles yelled that its a star.. Pretty hilarious, heard its quite rare one to catch a green star!

4. Caught it at MY NEIGBOURHOOD PARK with my special someone.. Cannot believe my eyes when I saw it went down in the midst of the HDB blocks.. seem so unreal to catch it right smack near my place.. lol

Overseas
5. Was resting at a makeshift place for trekking to Jerkang waterfall next day when I saw 2 shooting stars at one shot.. Very satisfying when my friend did not see both at all..

6. Caught it at base camp at Kota Tinggi Waterfall when about to sleep facin the sky.. saw a shooting star that reverse its direction before coming down.. totally weird and funny.. me and cindy laughed until wanna die..

7. This time, its at Stong Waterfall base camp.. the star jus went down after we were waiting to see one for a long long time.. nothing spectacular..lol

8. At Nepal guest house rooftop.. was the only one who saw the shooting star flew past.. simply amazing in the cold weather with positive energy all around!

I guessed as compared to my peers, my frequencies of seeing shooting stars can be considered quite alot.. Perhaps I am just really lucky in so many times..

Wondered if shooting stars really grant wishes? If they do, then I will remember what wish to make for Charles the next time.. I have afterall made enough wishes in Nepal.. It's time to share with others.. =)
