Singapore in May 15' Part 2

Jogging around Robertson Quay reminded me how amazing it feels sweating outdoors and just appreciating my surroundings. I've definitely overspent my days being cooped up indoors for way too long now. I'm always at the gym whenever I workout and running on the treadmill is outright depressing compared to being outdoors where fresh air and abundance of nature is. Here's a quick fun fact: I hate running on the treadmill so I'd rather climb the stairs on the stepper machine like a mad woman and trust me it's way more challenging. Unfortunately for us Malaysians the safety back home just hinders women from jogging outdoors, I mean you don't even feel safe at public parks, I don't know about you but I would be paranoid as hell with all sorts of hooligans "lepak-ing" around. #trueStory

Lucky me bumped into more than 10 cuties that morning! 4 legged cuties that is hehe, what were you thinking? tsktsktsk. My Bruno would have a field day if only he could join in.

Got cut short by the storm and headed to the gym for some floor workout.
A big shoutout to Believe Active for this cute 'Never Never Never Give Up' inspirational tank top! Love Love!

Kim made reservations for brunch at Arteastiq Boutique Tea House @ Mandarin Gallery.

We both ordered from the "Gentlemen's Dinner" section, yes we are ladies with a huge appetite, judge us for all we care :P

Mine
Beijing's Dynasty Duck Pancake
Just the right portion of protein, veg and carbs! Filling yet it doesn't leave you with a bloated tummy, still can look good in pictures after ya lol.

Ginger Spice Tea with Mao Shan Wang (type of Durian) gelato.
Fascinatingly enough this was pretty mild, not like how you'd imagine it to be as ginger and durian in general are both pungent in taste and odor. For the first time our king of fruit is classy.

As soon as I made my first step into the Cloud Forest dome I could feel my goosebumps immediately being awaken! It was so chilly and I was obviously not attire ready for that strong gush of cool wind. I was in complete awe when being greeted by this majestic waterfall! Oh and be prepared to get a little wet ;)

Walking on the sky walkway is definitely an experience you shouldn't miss (even if you're afraid of heights, this is your chance to conquer that fear!!), the view is just breathtaking!
