Hello, hello. Been really busy and updating this space has unfortunately been one of the last things on my mind. The past weekend is the most eventful one I've had in a long while. We did so many things it feels rather surreal that it was all all happened in merely three days!
On Friday, I attended two bbq sessions. One in the afternoon at the newly-opened Ssikkek Korean Grill BBQ outlet in Junction 10 and another in the evening at a friend's place. The entire two and a half hours at Ssikkek was spent eating non-stop- value for money! It costed $16.50 including GST and service charge which is reasonable for the spread offered. We made a reservation for lunch and it would be good to make reservations too if you're dining in for dinner. I've passed by several times in the evenings during weekends and there's always a queue!
The BBQ dinner later in the evening comprised of sashimi grade salmon and scallops, plus a whole load of other good food like cheesy butter garlic mushrooms, prawns, stingray, variety of ciders, etc etc. It was an awesome day foodwise :)

Saturday noon was spent at the bird park hanging out with some lovely featured creatures. It was a bit of a rush as we only had about two hours there. Still, we managed to cover good ground and see everything that we had wanted to save for the horned shoe-bill (one of my favourites!) whose outdoor enclosure seemed to have disappeared into thin air. I think it got converted into the kids playground area :/
Lory Loft was really fun! It's a walk-in flight aviary where the birds can freely interact with visitors. They have lories and lorikeets who are quite playful and aren't afraid to get up-close with everyone. People feeding them had such a good time that it was hard not to be gleeful when watching them interact with these feathered friends. I saw a tourist who tried taking a self-shot on his iphone with a bird on his shoulder, as well as others who wouldn't stop laughing (panic response, I reckon) at the birds who perched happily on their shoulders + head.
After that, it was the MP3 Experiment event by Improveverywhere at Sentosa. It's basically a flash mob and people participating are supposed to wear headphones with a particular mp3 downloaded. Everyone plays this mp3 at the same time and it gives us instructions on things to do. It included kooky stuff like playing tag with other participants and having balloon swordfights with others, all done in the presence of unsuspecting passer-bys. My first time partaking in such an event so it was really fun! But quite tiring though, because we were running all over the place rather haphazardly for much of the entire forty minute duration.
Later at night I partook in my first clubbing experience coupled with some drinks, dancing and watching how people of opposite genders got it on while they were high. Shan't elaborate much but yeah, it was highly amusing. Pretty good for a first-time experience I think. Especially since the nuns are always joking about how personal space is so important to me and that a hula hoop would be required should I ever step into a club. Haha.
Sunday was reserved for The Addams Family Musical which ended my weekend with a high note (literally!). Amazing, amazing show. We caught their final show in sg and it was more than I had expected it to be. Beautiful props, goosebumps-inducing singing, quirky dancing and a handful of laughter/comedy thrown in. It left the two of us humming and singing along to their songs ever since. We were able to get their autographs on the programme sheet we bought and took a photo with Wednesday and Lurch (my fav!!!! He was hilarious throughout the show). Our photo with them even got re-instagramed by Dan, the guy who played Lurch. Pretty darn exciting~
