Image
GONG XI FA CAI Thanks Parallels,  for CNY Hamper. I appreciated it very much! May this year of the Pig bring prosperity to everyone!  Baby, Chewy and I attended the opening of the  River Hong Bao 2019: Bicentennial Edition . The floating platform was guarded by an 18m-tall God of Fortune .    The River Hong Bao 2019  was held at The Float @ Marina Bay, and  kicked off with a 10-minute spectacular fireworks display, the longest in the event's 33-year history.   The event was launched by Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong! The River Hongbao 2019 featured about 22 lanterns, including the 12 zodiac animals, which lit up the floating platform in a myriad of colors. I took some random OOTDs at the event. Thanks for the invites to the opening ceremony of the River Hongbao 2019.   I met up my two good friends for lunch, and we settled at Typhoon Cafe which wa...

[POCARI SWEAT RUN 2016] 'Journey to the Moon'

Image
The POCARI SWEAT RUN returned for a fifth edition this year, with a special theme! 'Journey to the Moon' , as it was called, was to signify the amount of distance covered from every POCARI SWEAT Run since its beginning till now! This particular distance, after completion of this year's run, would cover enough kilometres to actually reach the moon from earth! The run was held at The Float @ Marina Bay this year, and the flag off time was at 6pm.   To give you a further insight into the theme this year, runners who took part in the previous editions of POCARI SWEAT RUNs have contributed a cumulated distance of 380,000KM. Over the four years, participants have covered a total of 300,000KM - a distance which is more than 75% of the distance between the Earth and the Moon. This year, there were about 10,000 runners who took part and joined their efforts to complete the remaining 80,000KM of POCARI SWEAT's Journey to the Moon.   There were many activities l...

This year, Great Eastern Women's Run ( GEWR) 2015 celebrates 10 years of empowering women to live healthy and great through running, and at the same time, to commemorate SG50.   Thanks for the invite! This year, I was not part of the  #RuntoLiveGreat programme, but I will still participate in the Great Eastern Women's Run (GEWR), which will be taking place on the 1st November of 2015 at The Float@Marina Bay .

The female pacer Ranjini Mei Hua was also there. They shared their personal experiences and tips to encourage the participant...
