It wasn't planned but when the time drew closer, we decided to go down to S'pore during the short term break that i had recently. It was arguably my best trip down to S'pore!
1. It was a real holiday - we slept until we could sleep no more and then only got up to go out! =)
2. There was not need to rush back home at night to prepare for the next day at work or to get sufficient rest. We just took our time each nite and only went back when we were too tired to do anything else.
3. FOOD!!!!! Lots and lots of good food!!!!! =P
4. Shopping! tGiF bought some clothes for a bargain. I almost got a nice 3 piece branded suit for SGD250 but decided against it since i do not need so many suits. But i did get a really cool action figure!!!! My fav character in the HP series who also happens to be one of my fav actors!
Also, i manage to find the CD i have been looking for for some time - and could not find it anywhere in M'sia.
5. Spending almost every moment of the day with tGiF!
6. The only morning we had to get up early was to go to church - and we had an interesting and edifying time in the church we visited. Better not mention the name tho cuz i may want to blog about it another time. It was indeed an interesting time there too!
7. We did a LOT of walking. And i love walking! We even spent some time at the outdoor "gym" at the place where tGiF's aunty lived.
8. We had to travel far each day and it gave me an opportunity to think and pray, especially regarding my sermon which i was to deliver when i got back.
9. Perhaps the most important thing was that we had the time to catch up with frens. Again, as we did not have specific plans, we could spend the whole afternoon just chatting with frens. We even went to visit and see one of my fren's new baby!
10. I got a stamp on my passport! =)

Musicals I watched in London
Here is the list of musicals I have watched in London (in no particular order). It was surprisingly and disappointingly shorter than expected!
- Phantom of the Opera - the best!
- Wicked - very close to the best!
- Les Miserables - my first ever musical in London
- The Lion King - arguably the best visual spectacle!
- Sunset Boulevard - clearly one of my favourites. Love the songs, the witty lines, the tragic storyline.
- Miss Saigon - watched this with my family.
- Starlight Express - exhilarating!
- Spamalot - hilarious! Too bad i watched Monty Python and The Holy Grail before cuz a lot of the jokes were taken from that movie.
- Grease - watched this when Debbie Gibson was playing Sandy.
- We Will Rock You - great fun, felt like i was in a Queen's concert!!! Definitely a must for Queen's fans.
- Hairspray - must say that i enjoyed the movie more.
- Oliver - such a classic! Love all the songs - and i had the extra bonus of watching Rowan Atkinson play Fagin.
- The Lord of the Rings - clearly unlike the movie. Visually good. I enjoyed the 2 breaks they had when characters came to us to in audience including some really scary Wraiths!
- Billy Elliot - wonderful dancing!!!
- Mamma Mia - this will get you up and dancing!!!
- Avenue Q - wonderful songs, such intelligent and funny lyrics!
- Cats - no storyline but entertaining nonetheless!
- Blood Brothers
- Love Changes Everything
- Carousel
- The Woman in White
