Singapore

Ok, so I didn't really know what to expect from Singapore - I mean I never really hear of people vacationing here, but I must say that it is a beautiful place!

The hostel I'm staying in is great -- I absolutely love the people and the place. The eight bed all female room is very interesting. I am on the top bunk and have yet to fall lol -- All in all, I would recommend it to anyone coming to Singapore!

The first day I got here, I checked in and made my way out into the city and came upon a nice Indian woman whom I only know as "the Aunty from Lucknow". She was wandering around alone so we decided to wander together. We caught a train over to the Chinese Gardens -- it took about an hour to get there and there wasn't much to see but it was a fun ride! =)

On the way home, we stopped off in Little India -- my goodness, you wouldn't believe how many Indian people are in Singapore! It's insane! I felt like I was in India already -- I may not even bother going now, haha, just kidding But really, lots of Indians =0

The next day, I met some awesome Aussies named Eva and Natalie -- they turned out to be very cool, I wish they hadn't left yesterday! In any case, the girls and I made our way to one of the must see places of Singapore - its called SENTOSA ISLAND. It was like a fantasy island resort I tell you. BEAUTIFUL! They had three amazing beaches, dolphin shows, sky rides to see the views, and did I mention the beaches!? lol -- Eva and I went swimming and the water -- despite its saltiness was perfect!! I could have easily spent a week laying on the beach in the perfect velvety sands. I was planning on going back today, but unfortunately the storming rains outside have caused a slight change in my plans =0.

After returning from Sentosa Island, the girls left back home to Australia and I took a "nap" that I was suppose to wake up from to go out to a place called Clarke Quay (where the pubs/clubs live) -- but I didn't wake up lol -- oops. Anyway, so today, I am heading to Chinatown and Arab street for a bit and then back to the hostel to avoid getting my only pair of jeans soaked (i left my luggage in storage at the airport haha).

Tonight I am going on a Night Safari -- I'll let you guys know how that goes in my next entry .

Anyhoo... my internet time is running out so I gotta run! I'll check in again soon!!
