Chinatown in SG

I got the chance to visit Chinatown while I was in SG due to the persistence of my good friend, Stesh (Hi Steshi!). She was determined to show me bargain prices for pasalubong pieces. When we got there, I liked the place right away. :) The colors, the people and the variety of things you can buy. The place was so alive!



I have to admit that the price was definitely lower compared to the pasalubong pieces in the malls (esp. compared to the ones Mama bought in Lucky Plaza).

After walking and looking around, we got to Chinatown Food Street wherein there was a long line of foodstalls. Yes, we had a feast. Food post will follow. ;)

CARPE DIEM!

Ba-Bye Ate

Today was quite a sad day for our family. For a very close-knit family, goodbyes are really extra difficult to say . Especially if the one leaving will be miles and seas away. My Ate (with her husband) left this morning for the US. They'll be starting their new life there. She already has work so I don't need to worry about that anyway, and I'm sure that she'll definitely do well. My parents were really sad... maybe it's the thought of being "away" from her. Tipong you have to hop on a plane pa just to be able to get to her. The whole family has US visa naman , we can go there anytime (as long as we have the money I guess :p) Yes, I cried a lot as well... and I guess it's because of all the bilins I got from her. The one that stuck the most " Ikaw na bahala dito ha.. Alagaan mo sila Mama and Papa. Si Ivan ha... Wag mo silang pabayaan. " My nephew on the other hand was a different story... he was eager to go home already when we got to NAIA. ...
