Well I've found out that my blog seems so boring without something new. I didn't want to either change the layout or change the background and theme of my blog. So I thought about something that would make another new touch to this old blog. So umh... umh... umh.... *impersonating Sunny's aegyo way of thinking* nah, I got it! Let's apply a music!
Now, you can see at the bottom of my blog, there's a small music player bar. If you wonder why there's only one song playing on my blog, well I've made a playlist for a song indeed *hahaha*
Sop why did I choose "Paradiso"?
Paradiso is a smooth guitar-based instrumental song, taken from the original soundtrack of Korean drama titled "Full House". I recommend you to listen to this song on a sunny afternoon, especially when you enjoy sundown moment at the seashore. It's so romantic!
So I really hope you enjoy music on my blog :]

Merlion Congratulated Me On My Birthday
So, lemme see how long I've been away, eh? Hahaha, I've been away for weeks, I guess. And yeah, now I come up with the stories of my birthday vacation. Vacation? Yup, my parents had actually planned a visit to Singapore before my holiday. As the result, I celebrated my birthday in Singapore, and that was very very great!
So I took a flight to Singapore on May 27th in a very early morning. The plane landed at Changi Airport about an hour and half later. When a lady officer checked my passport, she asked me how old I am. She also gave me hint of my birthday that I laughed and admitted visiting Singapore to celebrate my birthday. She congratulated me before I left.
And I continued the trip with my tour group. We went to Merlion park to take pictures there. It was cloudy so the day wasn't as hot as if it's sunny. It wasn't my first visit to Merlion park, but still Merlion excited me. It was Sunday and I have to admit it I didn't really enjoy taking pictures there at the day because there were so many people there, I mean, too many people there! It was very very crowded that little children might be lost. But fortunately I could still take some pictures there.
What I regret the most is, that I couldn't visit Marina Bay Sands. I wish I could have swum in the gorgeous rooftop infinity swimming pool :[ but yeah, at least I've visited Merlion. Some believe that a person is not visiting Singapore yet if he doesn't visit Merlion. So I think visiting Merlion when you go to Singapore is a must *LOL*
The last two pictures show photos of me with the view of Singapore CBD as the background. Compared with other pictures above, I prefer the last two pictures to the others. I don't know, it's probably because of the pose (?)
Okay, so I continued the tour, and the next destination was Chinatown. Yeehaw! Chinatown! Well, I felt like home. There were so many Chinese ornaments in red, here and there. I smelled joss-sticks burnt, deep fried snacks, and good-smell perfumes from perfumeries. I didn't buy a lot of things there, but I bought a T-shirt and some keyholders. I had to be aware of pickpockets since the streets were crowded. There are so many stalls and shops selling unique stuffs and gifts, from T-shirts to keyholders, from perfumes to cheongsam. Visiting Chinatown is a must, and certainly, visiting The Buddha Tooth Relic Temple is a must, too!
So, when did I celebrate my birthday? Okay, let's skip several hours until 10p.m, Singapore time. I arrived at the hotel and I took a rest for a while. I shared a room with my father's student whom I consider him as a big brother. Someone knocked the door and it was my father's student named Icha. She invited us to go out and have fun with her friends (the tour group consisted of my family, my father's workmates, and my father's students from EduTech department). So, my seniors and I went out and I told them that tomorrow would be my birthday (May 28th), so they cheered for me and we counted the time while walking around the city.
Our destination that night was Mustafa Center. My phone rang, alarming my birthday. My seniors congratulated me and we sang while walking to Mustafa Center. Some people looked at us but we didn't care. I was so happy and it was the fist time I celebrated my birthday outside. A senior recorded a video of me saying something about my birthday and my wishes, and I'm too shy to upload it (hehe).
We finally ended up chatting and having some snacks at pedestrian cafe nearby Mustafa Center. I bought a can of Pringles, my favorite snack, and some chocolate bars and drinks. We chatted about a lot of things and we also took some pictures.
I got ten dollar from Ka Angga :]
We were celebrating my birthday :]
We went back to hotel at 1p.m, and when I arrived at the hotel, I checked my Twitter. So many tweets for me from my friends, congratulating me on my birthday. Wow, thank you so much! That birthday is so memorable and I cannot forget it. Once more, thank you for y'all! :D
