Online Quiz - What type of Singaporean you are : PERSONALITY TEST

Source: http://itsmyturn.sg/
I love Singapore and I'm proud to be a Singaporean where people of different races live harmoniously together in this small dot on the World map. Due to the strong framework of the Total Defence, Singapore is perceived by most people as one of the safest country to live and work in. The theme for this year's Total Defence campaign is "Total Defence: It's my turn." Yes, when it comes to keeping Singapore strong and secure as a Nation, everyone has a part to play in. This website http://itsmyturn.sg/ provides a great platform for Singaporeans to both appreciate and participate. Click on REFLECT to read about the interesting articles and appreciate our cultural and identity as a Singaporean. Click on PARTICIPATE to join in some of the events that ranges from simple actions like "Visit a Local Bookstore" or "Leave work by 6pm" to a larger efforts like "Rebuild Boys Town" for a worthy cause.

After which, spare a few minutes to take THE QUIZ to find out what type of Singaporean you are! Are you the true blue Singaporeans, the complain kings/queens or the patriotic Singaporeans? It's only ten questions to determine that and at the same time compare it to the statistic.

And below is a screenshot of my results after completing the quiz for the first attempt. You may wish to try it for as many times as you like if you think the results does not describe you accurately. 



So, the result shows that I'm a take it easy Singaporean! It so true! I'm a very easy going person ma so everything also take it easy. Lolol. If I'm going to start a family, it would mean I would have to change my routine which I don't really want to at this point of time. I'm a true blue Singaporean who would queue up when I see a queue and didn't know what I'm queuing for at times. My thinking is got queue means the food is nice right? Wah, such a long queue, got free gifts ah? That's so me and it's just so Singaporean! I always have time for entertainment as I believe in work-life balance and I quite know how to enjoy life. Eat good food at restaurant once in a while and watch movies, counted as enjoy life right?

Meet up with Ivy at Yoshimaru Ramen Bar


My first time eating at this Yoshimaru Ramen Bar located at Holland Village. It's the only outlet in Singapore according to Ivy who is also the one introducing and bringing me here. I really love the services and food here. Thanks! 


A little background on my friend, Ivy here is that she was my friend from my Primary 1 class in XNPS. *Gasp* We only re-connected through FaceBook last year. For my Primary 1 classmates, I can only vaguely remember her and another girl called Grace and whom we have both lost touch with totally. We chatted on alot of topics and I really appreciate her kindness to send me her Taiwan itinerary which she had spent months to compile. *Guiltyface* Glad to have a meet up and hope to do it more often. Time always passed so fast when we are relaxing and enjoying. Thought we want to leave by 9.30pm but the next moment we look at our watches, it's already like 10.30pm and the shop is closing. Lol. So we parted and went back home.    


Review to be up soon.

Chinese New Year Day 15 : Chuen Chuen + OT at his Office 元宵一起加班

The fifteenth day of the Chinese New Year also marks the end of this Festival. Alternatively, today is also the Chinese Valentine's Day AKA The Lantern Festival AKA 元宵节。So if you find the real Valentine's Day too crowded to be out with your other half, celebrating it in advance on this date is pretty much the same. As long as it's with you loved ones, I guess it doesn't really matters. 


Went down to meet him for a dinner together. Read my review here. He's so busy recently that the time I spent with my colleagues are much more compared to the time I spent with him. He suggested eating Chicken Rice. Accompany him back to his office to work OT. I also got some work to do. 


As he was working, I was busy entertaining myself with the darts that they have in the office. It's quite a fun game to unwind. It would be better if you put a photo of anything that you dislike and throw the darts on it. For example, photos of a cockroach. But who would print a photo of a cockroach right? So disgusting. Lolol. The first random dart I threw, I hit the bull at 9 points but didn't have the luck in getting the bull's eye and the rest of the scores are pathetic. 


Seeing me playing and getting quite high score, he also came to challenge me. In the end, for the challenge, luck is not with me and he won.  

We worked until 10.30pm before we leave this place. It was eerily quiet and we were like the last  to leave. I don't even know how I got the courage to go to the washroom (that requires a key to go in) alone. It was so quiet you could even hear a pin drop. There my imagination runs wild and I keep thinking what if some pervert lock me inside? The key bf gave me can opens a female toilet and he's a male so what does this imply? Scary!

Chinese New Year Day 7 : Sentosa Boardwalk to Sentosa Flowers - Enchanted Spring 人日去圣淘沙春节花会之绮域之旅

The seventh day of the Chinese New Year is also the common man's birthday or 人日。So Happy birthday and I'm celebrating this day with my parents! We are going to the Sentosa Flowers (last day of Sentosa's annual floral extravaganza event) by foot on a leisurely stroll via the Sentosa Boardwalk. It's a cheaper way to enter Sentosa at S$1 per entry compared to taking the Sentosa Express which cost S$3 per entry. 



We started our journey from VivoCity Shopping Mall. There's no way you can get lost as the signs are so big and clear telling you which exit to go from the moment we stepped into VivoCity at the Basement. We exit the shopping mall at the level 1 waterfront promenade.


Opens on 29 January 2011, the Sentosa Boardwalk is a 700m timber boardwalk that opens 24 hours a day, while the travellators operate every day from 7am to 12mn and the ticketing booths open from 9am to 6pm daily.


Spotted this lovely tree at the beginning of the Sentosa Boardwalk. Combined with the Camera+ Diana effect, it really makes this photo even more lovely. 


The Sentosa Boardwalk is divided into five sections namely the Mangrove, Rock Garden, Terrain & Hill, Coastal Flora and Tropical Rainforest. One can choose to walk or let the travellators brings you to the next station but I would prefer to walk as the travellators is rather slow. 



Some of the photos taken along the Sentosa Boardwalk. We stopped to look at the cruise ships, observed a caterpillar wriggling around and took a group photo with the help of some tourists before we reach the ticketing counter.


 


The sunny weather is perfect for visiting the Sentosa Flowers.

Imbiah Lookout



Awakening - Parents holding the big paintbrushes to give the finishing touch to this painting of the Dragon to usher in a prosperous year. This comes from a legend that a famous painter named Zhang Sengyou who painted a dragon without the eyes and after he dotted the dragon's eyes, the dragon became alive and fllew into the sky. 画龙点睛。





Flower Fairies - This two flower fairies are keeping the flowers strong and healthy by sprinkling fairy dust.


 


Trees of Life - Pay and get your wish written on the colourful slips of wishing paper and hang them on the trees and they might just come true! The highlights here are the 6 larger-than- life bird families on the branches of the trees. 




 


Tea Journey - We see how the tea leaves looks like on the large tea set and learnt about the nature of Long Jing Tea. 





 


Spring Melodies - Listen to the soothing melodies of Springtime. From the musical instruments or humming birds. 




Dinoland - Dinosaurs were majestic and enormous creatures many many years ago. Now see them rule the land of Sentosa! 




Dance of the Dragon - Created by International award winning sand sculptor : Tan Joo Heng. 



 Sweet Love - Fall in love again with the sweet red roses. 



We completed the Sentosa Flowers journey in about 3.5 hours time. I think we missed out two sections - Lost Garden and Sea World. A pity but I really enjoyed myself very much. An opportunity to spend time with my parents and it feels great to be surrender by so many flowers and be under the sun. Brightens up one's mood instantly.
