Who is the most famous male celeb in Singapore at this moment? I should think it’s Brunei-born actor, singer, model, gym instructor–at least Wikipedia said so–Wu Chun. As I noticed, he’s been visiting Singapore several times in a year. Only less than two weeks ago he and his Taiwanese boyband Fahrenheit came to town. We missed it–not that I’m a big fan though. It’s just fun to meet a celeb, as long as it’s free :p

I remember once Zsolt even had to accompany me to go for Wu Chun hunting at Bugis Junction. But thanks to the traffic jam (who said Singapore had the best traffic?), it took more than an hour for us to go there. By the time we arrived, everyone had just gone to Junction 8. So we quickly went to Junction 8, and we found the place to be so quiet. Only the next day we read online that it was somewhere on level 4. Oh well, no luck. We couldn’t sell his autograph on e-bay.

So what’s the fuss about him? His acting skill is mediocre, methinks. His songs are ok, easy-listening, maybe. Just don’t expect you’d hear something like Michael Buble’s :p But anyway, it’s enough to make teen girls scream his name. Pretty much like Zac Efron in the USA, I guess, his hair is his best feature.

How do you make such hairdo, by the way?–Wondered if I could cut Adam’s hair like that :)

I know parking can be expensive in Singapore, but what would you do if you’re charged $73,695 for a 1 hour parking like this person?

One thing you could do to avoid paying parking is–don’t use car! ;)

If you can’t resist it, like us, then maybe get yourself a CapitaCard from DBS. Only last week we received free parking for three months after charging our hospital bill to that card. Thanks to the hospital, we even became one of the top spenders–not that we were happy about it though.

Another tip to get free parking is: go out only on Sunday and public holidays, and park only on HDB carpark :D

These are places which offer free parking for visitors: IMM (only for the first 3 hours), UE Square (on Sunday), Turf Club, Singapore Zoo–oh and HDB, as I mentioned before.

Miscellaneous, Singapore 2:59 pm

Many girls see models like Kate Moss or Heidi Klum as fashion goddesses. I bet they’d kill to look like them. Funnily enough, I think Kate Moss’ look is average at best. Heidi Klum is better, but I wouldn’t consider her a goddess still.

I don’t have any specific celeb whose fashion sense I wanted to follow. I do drool over those Korean girls on tv though. They have the cutest dresses and the most gorgeous hairdos.

Korean outfit is not really very expensive. For $40 you can already purchase a very good trench coat, which can be $200 in Europe. But Korean hairdo is a different story. Check this girl’s permed hair, for example. Isn’t it simply gorgeous? I’ll certainly go for this look one day. Of course, in Singapore it doesn’t come cheap. Last year I had my hair permed and the total damage was more than $400 :p

What do you think, is it worth it?
