I am Back - With Pictures :) - Aditi's Monologue

I am Back – With Pictures :)

I am back from my Singapore vacation – probably the best I’ve ever had in life!

And I so much want to go back. Seriously.

This vacation has changed me in so may ways. I am unable to work in the office (I sit on FaceBook all the damn time!! How lame can that be!) and I so much hate the Gurgaon transport now (Even more now, because a 2 day rain has eroded all roads and most of the roads are like an excavation site now). The best thing about Singapore is their public transport. So damn convenient! I was in love with the MRT there. I hope Gurgaon govt does something like that. And don’t even get me started on Singapore food. It was amazing. I tried almost everything I saw. From a million kind of noodles to variety of sea food that I had only heard about till now, and everything in between. Yummy!

Anyway, it’s too painful to talk about it right now because – I’ll suffering from some major Singapore withdrawal symptoms. I mean, 10 days in SIngapore did spoil me for a lot of things. For one, I only want to drink Kopi now. Go figure.

So, trying to stay away from the pain, I am sharing a few pictures from my vacation. One for each day. As you know I have a strict no-pictures-of-myself-on-this-blog policy, I am nowhere (Except for one where I have cut off my head). Hmph…I don’t know why I made that rule anyway, but lets stick to it till we can. I am otherwise a complete show-offish person who flaunts pictures everywhere. My blog is an exception. 🙂 Moving on…This was my first experiment with photography also. I recently bought a super cool camera and I used it to its fullest in Singapore. Let me know if you like them.

This is me at the cutest Fish Pond ever – Singapore City Church

For some reason, I kept meeting Brides and Bridegrooms. Here is the cutest couple.

The Singapore Supreme Court.

Merlion

An interesting poster warning the World War-2 soldiers against giving their secrets at ‘The Battle Box’.

One of the beautiful pictures I took.

Jelly Fish at the Under-Sea-World, Sentosa.

Paula Ubin Island.

A tropical Fruit. Lovely picture, this one.

Me walking on the deserted trail on Paula Ubin.

Pink Dolphin.

On of the cutest kids I have ever met. Inshira. 🙂

PS: I blew all my money on traveling and yum-yum-yummy Singaporean food so shopping took a hit. But I hope I’ll go back to Singapore some day and shop my heart out. An oh, I also want to do a Before and After of all the pictures in this post. Then I’ll put all the pictures and experiences old and new in a new blog post. 🙂
