Strolling, Shooting. Shopping. Capturing Orchard: Holiday Season in Singapore

Missed out with Christmas in Manila for the 2nd time in my lifetime.

Being stuffed by Filipino Noche Buena.
The endless family Gatherings, High School and College Reunions.

The perks of staying back home and receiving tons of gifts and Ninoys (500 peso bills),
And the countless number of kids, banging at your front door singing Christmas Jingles
like it's trick or treat for Halloween over and over again.

It was that kind of Christmas that I was accustomed to,
But a couple of years of Christmas in Singapore is not all that bad at the same time.

Singapore makes it up for Christmas with its Shopping Sales of the latest gadgets and expensive clothing and accessories along with the spectacular display of Bright Lights all over the city.


Tangs Plaza Snow Lights, The Mandarin Gallery, Paragon, Ion Orchard

Went out with my awesome College friend Lisa @callecat,
We were on a mission to buy a new head set for me and to catch 
the Marvelous Lights of Singapore 
with what could be the last chance in our 2 year contract.

Long Exposure in Progress



After checking out three malls along Orchard, I finally settled with a Sony DJ Bass Headset, and got Lisa to buy her own Audio Technica Head set as well. >:))

Our death defying attempt to take a photo in the middle of a busy highway intersection. :))



We were literally running in circles from Lucky Plaza,
Walked to Somerset, jogged to Centerpoint,
Took a bus to Plaza Singapura, went impulsive shopping
At Abercombie & Fitch Club House. :))
Stopped at Tangs, exhausted at Ion.

Strolling, Shooting, and Shopping,
We were totally drained out trying to get the most out of Orchard.

they only show up when the path is too dark,
And shines the brightest when it counts the most."
