Gardens by the Bay (Flower Dome & Cloud Forest) // 8th Monthsary

HEY GUYS
I finally found the time today to blog because we're stuck at home all thanks to the rain :(
It's already the 6th day in Cebu,scary how a week just passed by so quickly.

When we were just about to leave the house for Gardens that day, it started raining (december wasn't kind to us at all) so i spent an hour googling an alternative way to get there without the long unsheltered walk from MBS to Gardens lol wtf. BUT GUESS WHAT i found out the best way to get to Gardens without much walking at all! 





Totally in love with the lace details on the back of my dress



HAHAHA can't get over how this looks like an angry face. Can you guess what it is?
The skin around my tattoo was shedding (yes,it fucking sheds after the first 2 weeks of tattooing) AND IT WAS ITCHING DAMN BADLY
and i wake up every morning, to see these big chunks of skin flakes on the bed. Not the most pleasant thing on earth. Everywhere i go i see a trail of skin.
Ok i think that's enough info on this you get the idea LOL.




Some Christmas macaroons before leaving the house. It wasn't bought by us so every piece was pretty much like a mystery?
Cb then i was sharing this with Ritche and for the grey piece you see (the first one) he ate half and i asked what it was,he said it's damn nice so i was so excited i popped the whole thing into my mouth with a smile on my face AND IT WAS GROSS AS HELL i had to spit it out and i swear i wanted to puke.

At first when i wanted to spit it out he still told me don't waste food?!!! I ACTUALLY TRIED TO EAT IT BUT I CAN'T OMG IT WAS LIKE,DETERGENT.
Shit i still have to kill him for that why do i always get tricked by him???

My friends all know how chocolate is my number 1 fav flavour so i thought i should keep the 3rd one for last since i always keep the best for last. And guess what?!!! IT WASN"T CHOCOLATE AND IT TASTED LIKE CRAP. Omg eating macaroons given by others is seriously damn scary and no fun at all i hate it so much???






Oh ya wtf i haven't told you guys how to get there without getting in the rain or having to walk in the crazily hot sun.

You just have to take a bus to Marina Bay mrt and when you exit the station you'll see a bus stop. No need for crossing roads or whatever it's just there. Take bus 400 that leads you towards "Marina Barrage" then alight 1 stop before Marina Barrage i think. Aiya you'll just see Gardens by the Bay anw! You can stop just behind the flower dome, super convenient if you're visiting that place!

This is the entrance~~~


All the succulent plants are located at one big section near the entrance.



Loved this, they're damn beautiful considering that they come from arid places




Really makes me wonder how they shipped all these gigantic trees all the way to Singapore. Most of them are from Africa.



Kept asking him "why are you taking pictures of such ugly plants?" HAHAHAHA but i swear he was stopping at every plant and taking an extreme close up photo as possible. Like every single time. Is he 5 or 23 years old i always wondered.





See i told you the plant so ugly he still want to take HAHAHA he took damn long to take this. I had to keep turning back to look for him cause he takes THAT long. 


Beautiful isn't it! I was having such a great time there i really loved it so much



Took us really long to figure if this was actually a plant, display or rock HAHAHAH concluded it was a plant after seeing that there were tiny leaves on the top of this...erm,plant?











One of my favourite photos!




if you realized how we always only photograph like a single flower,it's because it's the one and only flower there or the rest of them are withering LOL.
I swear many of the plants and fruits there are withering or rotting and it looks really sad.






Perfect lighting for photography definitely! I would recommend going in the day even though the flower dome and cloud forest closes at 9pm.
But since they allow re entry on the day itself you should visit the cloud forest both in the day and in the evening because at night they have these beautiful lights shining against the waterfall and it's just SO DAMN BEAUTIFUL you'll see what i mean later.






Asked this idiot to pose for a photo and he ended up taking a photo of me in return tsk






I told you he's 5 HAHAHAHA just look at that bright smile upon his face when he sees a tomato wtf omg



This is Ritche's photography.... HAHAHAHA


many christmas themed decorations since it was the month of December!




Many (rotting) strawberries




Numerous tiny pineapples HAHAHA damn cute



Still can't decide if the pumpkins were real? They look so fake LOL


Ritche and his new ride




i would want these flowers in my garden though i'll never have one cause i'll definitely forget to water them HAHAHAH


Finally headed over to the cloud forest after 2 hours spent at the flower dome.
I SWEAR the cloud forest is one of my favourite places in Singapore. JUST LOOK AT IT.
But please note that both the flower dome and cloud forest are air conditioned and somehow the cloud forest is DAMN COLD. Ritche was shivering like crazy once he entered the cloud forest HAHAHA and since then he couldn't even take 1 single clear photo of me....








I was just "omg"-ing everywhere i went cause the cloud forest is so much nicer than i had imagined




There are 6 stories to this cloud forest and so we took a lift to the 6th floor and slowly made our way down!









preorders are up for these pair of heels! i walked the entire day from 3pm till 9+pm and i swear my feet were just tired, not painful at all and it's just such a miracle since they're around 15 cm high LOL.
I'll probably be wearing this whenever i wanna look good and go shopping or whatever since it doesn't hurt.







this is the cloud forest at night! may seem a little bright in this photo but that's because of my slower shutter speed


Headed over to Marina Square to have dinner and as always we couldn't decide on what to eat haha. Ended up at Manhattan Fish Market because my dearest sua ku kampong living under a rock boyfriend has never had Manhattan NOR Fish and Co.
SO IMPOSSIBLE LEH FISH AND CO. HAS BEEN IN SG FOR HOW LONG ALR and though he isn't a Singaporean he's been living here for like 17 years, just 2 years lesser than i have???



The serving was damn huge and we left practically like all the fries behind HAHAH


That was an extremely fun day well spent and i enjoyed it like crazy. It's probably one of the most fun dates ever so if you want to bring your girlfriend/boyfriend somewhere you know where to go now hehe. And if you do want to bring them there as a surprise pls just take to Marina Bay and take a bus there. They'll probably guess that you're bringing them to the boring Marina Barrage instead but if you brought them to Bayfront there really isn't anywhere else to go other than Gardens so it's like spoiling a surprise?

Alright that's all i have for now hehe until a week later when i'm back from Cebu i'll start to blog on my numerous random adventures!

Till next time and HAPPY NEW YEAR WOOHOO
