Marina Bay. Marina Bay.

I spot myself in the Marin Bay area for the last 2 weekends. Nothing wrong with it, I guess - just funny how I keep popping up in the same places these days :)

 

Was at the DBS Marina Regatta last Sunday - such a hot and bright day! The picture (see below)  I posted in Instagram got me an invite to the DBS Marina Regatta Story 2013 Awards. A pity I could not attend but still HAPPY :) I only started on Instagram lately and it has been fun so far! Follow me @ ILOVELONGVACATION and see the other pictures that I posted on the DBS Marina Regatta and of course the occasional stories of my life!

 

Focused. On. The. Race

Also visited the Blueprint Emporium at Pit Building on the same day :) Happen to read about it in the newspaper last Saturday so I decided to pop by since I'm in the area. Always like attending such events to see what the designers in the region are up to and try to get something special :) 

Always like attending events at the Pit Building...Can feel the vibe in the air :)

 

Food is a kind of fashion these days too. Nice to see Tiong Bahru Bakery setting up shop here. Reminds me of the weekend markets in Sydney :) 

 

Excited beings heading to the fitting room to try the stuff they eyed on...



Pop-up stores  in their own ways!

 

My take-away :) A pair of crafted earrings from Tulola Jewelery (designed and made in Bali) and a ring of the same series...The ring is still on the way from Bali via DHL as my ring size was 5.5 and they had to tailor-craft it for me (and it was free, a privilege extended to all Blueprint Emporium customers :)

I must say that was a HAPPY Sunday! :)

Bali Bali

Just feel like blogging these days... guess writing is a good way to vent all those negative emotions...

So why not blog about Bali? An island I went to about 7 months ago... The best things about Bali:

Horse-riding - my first time. Very exciting :)

Lazing in a beautiful villa - my first time too. I like.

Chilling in Hard Rock Cafe Bali - Listen to This Dream... I like the white "PEACE" shirt I got from the HRC shop :)

Seeing nice scenaries - first time I have come so close to an "active" volcano....

Seeing first-hand the local culture...

Watching the sun set at Tanah Lot....



Starting the day with a good healthy breakfast. Yogurt, anyone? :)

Swim, tan, swim, tan, swim, tan, swim, tan

Wandering aimlessly in the streets, weaving in and out of shops...

Good friends + Good food = What more can you ask for? :)

Here to more and better holidays to come! Cheers!
