Singapore Philatelic Museum

ABBEY: I was a stamp collector when I was a kid. Got my collection from the letters that we received. Its only small scale though. My father told me that during their time stamp collection is a form of savings. Buy stamps whenever you got spare then once your stamp book is full you can exchange it for cash.

The museum got its open-house at New Year's day. They exhibited articles from Tintin comics.It showcases different post boxes from different years as well as the Singpost's history and memorabilia. Stamps from other countries were also displayed. Whole pad of stamps can be bought in here or you can buy an assorted pack. It located at Coleman Street; 5-min walk from any of Clarke Quay, Bras Basah, or City Hall MRT stations.












WILL:  Its 2012 and whats the best way to celebrate holiday here in Singapore? Go to their museums! This time we went to Philatelic Museum's open house. A house of stamps! Hehe.
       Here we found out history of stamps and what's is function except uses as payment on posts. Here it, illustrates how country uses stamps to magnify the culture and customs.
Love this museum, information about the Singapore posts is so much to handle. :) From
       City Hall MRT station this is just few blocks away.

Amethystory - Mineral Aqua Gel

ABBEY:  I've tried facial soaps and scrubs. This face product is different; it peels. Don't wash your face before application. Massage it until the serum sits in and the peeling begins. Rinse and then pat the face dry. I had soft and moisturized skin after applying it and a sense of cleanliness. I felt I had an instant face lift :)


WILL: Ginvera people is very generous giving some samples of Amethystory for the people who are so curious to try this mineral gel facial wash. 
      I use their facial wash as instructed, dry hands and dry face, put the gel on the face and start scrubbing away the dirt and dry skin. Of course there are some skin like that came out on my face. Hehe. Dead skin or "libag" as we called it in Filipino. Haha. Then I washed it away and astonished, it leaves a moisturized and supple feel face! 
     To prove that me and abbey really like the outcome, Abbey asked me to buy for him. Hehe. Vanity is now kicking in to my husband, but he worth it! Guys also need those facial cares ;)

SuperBowl Marina Square

ABBEY: This was my first and I won. Not that good score though, 121. We had fun when we're at Superbowl in Marina Square. A game is 4sgd per person. I was really nervous for my first rack. But I managed to drive the ball away from the gutters. On second game we had "strikes". Wilma got two as same as VA while I got one. We'll be getting more next time.











WILL: Counting down the days before My comeback to work my a$$ off hehe, Abbey and I hurrying ourselves to do almost all the things we wanna do before the work gets in and consume half of my life again. :) 
      My phone buzzed, VA asked us out to do experience some bowling. Haha! Agreed to the plan, after an hour of waiting at Superbowl Marina branch, we are now at the alley of pins! Haha. First time lei! 
      Superbowl Marina is very accessible for those who have offices just around suntec and esplanade :) their place is so clean and I am happy to see that they have Abbeys shoe size.  
My prayer that day, is to keep the pins standing. Why? We bet in that if I have done a strike I will treat them for dinner. And damn it, i got two strikes :( hehe. Not bad for first timers like me and abbey right? Love it then after two games we headed to The Manhattan Fish Market. Oopps this is VA treat, minus Chat.
