This is home~ Truly~
Hahaha... Singapore, where it is the closest foreign country near my hometown—too close, in fact. Travelling back and forth frequently is not something unusual here—not me, I can't afford it. This little gem, a city-state that resides in SEA where arguably is the most powerful country there. A multi-cultural state where both east and west meet. Just what is the special things it offered, to be adored so much by many people?—notably, Indonesian :p
Here are some of my OPINIONS of why I love it here:
1. Public transportation at the comfort of your door. The bus and MRT systems all very well integrated, thus travelling is made convenient and not to mention it is comfortable.
2. Pedestrian-friendly. The part that I really love here is the fact that you practically can walk or bike to anywhere you want without having to worry about being knocked by cars or competing walking space with them. The pavements are wide and most of it comes with lots of trees and shades.
3. Green. Trees, grasses, flowers and shrubs are everywhere. This city is filled with green colour, unlike most major cities that comes with the grey colour. Singapore is not dubbed as 'Garden City' for nothing.
4. Pollution free. You don't need to compromise your health in order to live in a city.
5. Clean. Who doesn't love clean space? Anyone? No unsightly trash or spits that ruined the scenery, or be ready to pay.
6. Safe. With its low-crime rate, it is unusual for women to walk alone at the night, or leaving your things or shop with being stolen-I gotta admit that, now, more crime happens as more people resides this island.
7. Almost no need for umbrella. Need me to explain?
8. FOOD!!! Last but not least, your stomach will be spoiled with wide choice of local delicacy here. Instead of going to the famous restaurant chain, you actually will find the best tasting food at independently run restaurant, coffee shop and ultimately the modest stall at hawker centres.
Of course, there's perfect country on this world. Like every country there, this state also has its own trials. Those are the reasons why I love Singapore—if only no. 1-7 are also applied to my country. What's yours?
You Are Plucky and Brave |
You are deeply emotional. You are a very soulful person, and at times you're downright fiery. When you want to get your way, you're assertive and gusty. You are a good actor, even when you're not feeling brave. You are easily excited and inspired. You are engaged with the world in many different ways. |
