Maiden Twilight Saga Movie Experience At Golden Village City Square

golden village city square
Courtesy of omy.sg and Golden Village, I managed to complete 2 maiden movie experience on Saturday. One being watching the The Twilight Saga - Breaking Dawn (Part 2) blockbuster in cinema (Yes! this is the first Twilight movie franchise that I've watched in cinema) and second being the first movie experience at the newly opened Golden Village-City Square multiplex. 

Golden Village City Square multiplex is not the biggest movie chain outlet in town but with its optimal  location (at the heart of the city, above the Farrer Park MRT Station), this 6-cinemas outlet will be the new entertainment hub for the movie fans.

Singapore Is The World's Most Emotionless Society? Seriously?

singapore is world's most emotionless society
Recently, Gallup, US-based Pollster released the result of a Poll from 152 countries to analyse how people feel about their lives. And you know what? Singapore (the little red dot that I am currently staying) deemed to be the most emotionless in the world! Seriously?

Hmmm... come and think of it, I kind of agree with result as most Singaporean are perceived to be more serious, more deserved and more conservative in nature. Having said that, on second thought, just like any other poll, such findings is not conclusive and I am pretty sure that I've chanced upon a fair share of locals here who are full of emotion and expression! ;-)

Are You Eat To Live OR Live To Eat?

eat to live, live to eat
We all need to eat, the question is what is your eating principle i.e. are you a "Eat To Live" or "Live To Eat" kind of people? For those who knew me personally would know that I fall under the former category! Or at least that's what I always told them when they asked : "If there is an invention of a super pill that can fight hunger without eating regularly, I will be their first customer!" Get my point? ;-)

Basically, for those of us who fall under the "Eat To Live" camp simply pay minimal attention to what kind of food we are putting inside our mouth and also not very particular on the ways or materials used in preparing them. As compared to the "Live To Eat" camp, they will rigorously searching around the town, city or overseas to find new and exotic delicacies. To them, every food tasting is a brand new experience! Also, they will be very good in elaborating the exact taste and texture of the food. Whereas for the other camp, this is a tall challenge!
