Things to Do and Sights to See in Singapore!


http://www.flickr.com/photos/adforce1


My friends and I are planning to go to Singapore this summer. With Cebu Pacific's All Year Round Low Fares it makes it that much cheaper to go take a trip and escape Metro Manila.

To aid us in planning our trip, I am using YourSingapore.com's guide. The site lists all of Singapore' attractions and even allows you to save them and then later on click+drag them to a 1-4 day trip planner. It's super handy! You can even share the trip you planned with your family, friends or whomever is going with you.

As an added bonus, YourSingapore.com is even rewarding new members (just signup for their newsletter) with a chance to win a brand new macbook! That's the only reason I need to sign up :P



http://www.yoursingapore.com

Mechanics:

  1. To join just sign up at YourSingapore.com from March 19 to April 19, 2010 to qualify for the digital raffle draw.
  2. The raffle is on April 26, 2010.

Prizes:

Macbook
Canon Cameras
8 GB iPod Nanos

Terms and conditions:

1.     Prizes are transferable but not convertible to cash.

2.     Promo open to Philippine residents only.

3.     All unclaimed prizes will be forfeited in favour of the Singapore Tourism Board – Philippines.

4.     Prizes can be claimed in person or by a representative with a proper authorization letter and valid ID.

5.     Redemption of prizes will only be up to 60 days from date of notification.

For inquiries, call the Singapore Tourism Board – Philippines office at (02) 813-0946 or 813-4968.


I'll share the top activities I want to try and sights I want to see in Singapore in my next post.

Til then!

Biggest Loser Asia Winner!


Have you seen the winner of the first ever Biggest Loser Asia? Were you even able to follow the series?
Well, my mom did. I watched only a few episodes here and there plus the finale, of course.
Gosh! I almost didn't recognize the finalists (except for Martha who was still pretty chubby, I thought) especially the winner, David Gurnani (see photo below courtesy of Yahoo! Philippines)

He got sooo thin already! Kudos to him for getting thin but quite honestly, my first thought when I saw him was he looks really sick. He looks unhealthy. It even looks like his hair thinned out, too. I think in his quest to win the prize, he took it a bit too far and didn't eat healthy anymore. Then of course, this is just my own opinion.
I watched the Biggest Loser US and the last winner, my personal favorite, Ali lost a lot of weight and although her face also thinned significantly she still looked quite healthy versus how frail David looked after his weight loss.
Here's Ali in a Got Milk? ad courtesy of dingorue.com. Doesn't she look fantastic!?

Carlo the runner-up in Biggest Loser Asia (our Philippine bet) looks far better and healthier than David. I wish he had one just because I believe he took a healthier route to weight loss which is why he didn't lose as much as David.
Anyhow, congratulations to David and I hope he starts eating (if he is eating) healthy and exercises in moderation.
To everyone's health!
