I was feeling upset about something at work. During lunch, my colleage suggested to play at URA centre so we went there to play the game (Know..know your Singapore). I have learnt a lot that day.
@ The highest building in Singapore is of height 280m and there are only 3 buildings of that height. Why is there a limit of 280m and not higher?
I actually thought it was due to the stability of the land but it is inaccurate.
The main reason is due to the planes and to ensure the safety of the people staying in the buildings. Especially at the northern part of Singapore, the height of the buildings is very important because it is the flying zone.
@ There is something common with Paya Lebar and Toa Payoh. What is that?
They have the same meaning just that it is in different language.
It means big swampy land.
@ Singapore is being featured twice in the book - 1000 places that you must visit before you die.
- Have a stay at the Raffles Hotel
- Eat at the Hawker Centre
Muhahaha...... Yesterday was Friday the 13th. *Evil laugh* Got any bad luck coming your way?
I know my friends have some bad luck that day. My colleage recieved bad news and I totally understood how she felt because I got that feeling just not long ago. I nearly forgotten that when I was on my way to work, I was hit by a twig falling down to the ground. Don't underestimate the strength of the twig because it really hurts. If getting hit by a twig is that painful, imagine the strength of the branches. No wonder it is possible for them to die because of branches falling.
I thought I won't have any bad news going on that day. But I was very mistaken. I had a more serious situation compared to the others. Being yelled at by my parents ain't good at all. It was terrible so now my emotions are not in a good state at all. Whatever I had been feeling deep inside all these years, I just say all out.....

Futakoi Theme Song
We're still fine because we can still become stronger.
We aim towards the great, expansive sky and free ourselves of the way we were yesterday
We unfasten all of the transparent, lie-filled and boring days
and keep our eyes fixed on the new morning.
Today, we continue to live.
We hit a few waves and even treasured our loneliness at times.
The day we realised the truth, we began heading straight towards tomorrow.
No matter what the place is in the world
We're aiming for as long as we carry each other in our arms, we will surely reach it
and cross the inaccessible path
we are still fine because we can still become stronger.
