Weekend exercise - Cycling with Obike

Hubby and me usually will try our very best to go for exercise at least once in the weekend. Last weekend we decided to go for cycling! It's been quite awhile since my last cycling. This is also our 1st time cycling with Obike, the bike sharing system has finally reach SG. There has been many bad review over the bike sharing system in SG, so we didn't sign in till now... Since there's so many promotion given by Obike compare with the other brands so we decided to sign up for Obike too. 

We started in the evening, planning to cycle from home to Coney Island. But it was too tiring for me as a newbie. So in the end we ended our trip at Punggol East Container Park for drinks.

Hectic week

Past two weeks has been a hectic week for me, the very unlucky me gotten food poisoning. Seriously doesn't know what I have eaten to cause the food poisoning. Even after seeing the doctor it did not fully recover, so in the end I went back to Toa Payoh to see another doctor.

Finally today I felt better, so I went for running this morning. Felt great after the workout.

The morning view of Punggol waterway is always so nice....It's a nice weather to workout today!



Hoping a healthier me, hoping my days will be better, hoping my dream will come true.

Weekend Mac Ritchie Tree top walk

Ok this is yet another crazy thing that I have suggested. For a person who seldom exercise want to go Mac Ritchie Tree top.... Hubby keep asking if I am sure I want to do this and keep repeating it's 10km walk. hummmm I did reconsider for a few seconds but the more he ask the more I want to challenge myself. If it's walking speed wouldn't be that hard bah. 

So to prove myself that I can do it, I said YES let's go! Hubby said we need to travel light, so told me that we can't carry too much things. No to my portable fan, no to my extra t-shirt, no to my powerbank, no to my snacks...... SAD!

We also jio LH to accompany us, his the only one that will do such things with us lah anyway. hahaha. We meet around 8am at Ang Mo Kio for Mac donald breakfast, must make sure I have enough food and energy as we will not have any snacks with us. 

We reached the place at around 9am and started walking to the tree top. It took us around 1hour walk before we reach the tree top. I was quite surprise to see quite a lot of people at the place, some are in groups, some are couple with young children, some even carrying baby.... = =" There's even some ang mo running, guess they are doing some training. I find it hard to jog there as the path are uneven, if there's rain before hand, some place will be damn muddy. 



Us before we start of our weekend long long walk...






Along the way you will also see monkey, do not feed them as they might get naughty and hurt you. But in general if you don't disturb them they will not come and disturb you. 


There's a few stop where you can take your rest. Only one stop there's toilet and water point, once you see that stop you are almost near the tree top. 


Us half way there....


You will also see a lot of signage that tells you ONE WAY ONLY, Do not turn back. hahaha


And once you reach the tree top it's really ONE WAY ONLY liao! No turn back! You also tend to get stuck in between because everyone wants to take a selfie! Of cause same for us!







Just when you thought ok done with the tree top since we are at the highest point from now it is down hill liao bah! Oh hell NO! There's a long long staircase that you need to climb up! 


And after you go Up, you go down again! OMG I simply got to stop half way the staircase down because see too many yellow lines liao. Until I blur and if don't stop I scare I'll miss my steps and I'll roll down!


After the tree top, we went to the Jelutong Tower, yet more staircase up...



The view up there...




And I saw this butterfly at the bottom of the tower... super big


We completed the walk around 11.30am, using 2.5hrs to finish the walk! Feel super proud of myself to be able to complete the walk. And after the walk our rewarding lunch is our favourite....



Happy Tree Top Walk! Mission Completed!

New haircut!

For those who have know me, I have been keeping long hair for many years. So many years that I couldn't even remember, I even concluded that I can't cut my hair too short. I will usually go crazy if hairstylist cut my hair too short (above shoulder length). So usually I only visit the hair salon that I always visit for my hair rebonding. 

But this few months the urge to cut my hair shorter (above shoulder length) is stronger and stronger. I'm just so tired to tie my hair, and I start to have headache on and off recently too. So one of the weekday I just went to waterway point and get my hair cut! 

Now I simply love my short hair, although it is not those super short one it is still consider the shortest length that I had for many years. Wonder if I will cut even shorter next time hahaha. 

Anyway I'm loving my new hair style for now.

Long weekend outing - Singapore Heritage Festival

LH jio us for this event, Mediacorp caldecott Broadcast centre open house. Ok lah we since nothing much to do shall go walk walk see see look look. We meet up for lunch at Adam Road hawker centre, my first time there for food. Hubby say prawn noodles and nasi lemak nice. I ordered prawn noodles hubby order nasi lemak. Both stall long queue in the end we had a very long lunch. 

Reach mediacrop caldecott around 2pm then realise no people there. A few uncle and aunty walk out the reception area told us event only start at 5pm. We all were shock as we didn't realise the starting time. Then we search online event actually start 4pm, so we went to a nearby cafe and nua till 4pm. 

Went back again around 4pm then realise security guard directing some people to walk to the back of the media crop caldecott then we saw a banner pointing where the festival is held. 


Follow the banner all the way to the back, then found OMG (Old Main Gate). 

Walk in then we realise there's actually free shutter bus service available at a few location. Faint! Then we also just realise we are only allow to walk around that back space of the festival. HUH....I still thought we can walk around the old mediacorp office.... sian diao. Event space very small. Some food stall, one small event hall for people to sell their merchandise (got no link with mediacorp), one outdoor stage some boring show, one indoor kids stage, one outdoor projector screen with many beanbags, one indoor exhibition. Event just boring.... 

















Heard a few uncle also complain event like half F... nothing much should have open more area for people to see. haiz disappointing. Didn't see a single artist we decided to leave the event place after taking photo. haha waste time.
