It took 4 hours and a couple minutes to get to Malacca from Singapore. If I remember it correctly, I think it was a little after 1 a.m. when we arrived at the Malacca Terminal. It was one heck of a crazy experience arriving there at that hour — from trying to connect to the internet using our newly bought Malaysian sim to trying to hire a cab or booking from Grab. It took us a couple of hours before we finally found someone to drive us to our hotel only to find out that we couldn’t book for an early checkin because they are already on full-house. Good thing there was a nearby hotel where we stayed for the rest of the night (+ inclusive breakfast. Yay!).

Singapore Day 4: Orchard Rd & Golden Mile Tower
On our last day in Singapore, I was having major period cramps when I woke up. So, I passed on going to Botanic Gardens and asked that I stay in the hotel to get all the rest that I can because we will be travelling to Malacca in the evening. Besides, I didn’t want to ruin the whole Botanical Gardens experience just because of my period. It sucks to have your period on trips like this.
Singapore Day 3: Far, Far Away
On our third day in Singapore, we went back to Sentosa Island to spend the whole day at Universal Studios. I personally love theme parks and as much as possible, I’d love to try out all of the rides – especially rollercoasters! So, the moment we entered the theme park, we immediately lined up for Battlestar Galactica – which totally turned my insides upside-down.
Singapore Day 2: Sentosa Island
Sentosa Island, I believe, is a haven for the kids at heart as there are so many fun
activities to try! I think what I liked the most is that every corner of the place is Instagram-worthy.
Singapore Day 1: Around the City
Let me just start with the fact that a month ago, I never thought I’d be able to join this trip. So here’s the thing, I don’t get to do a lot of travels as much as, well, everyone, so this will probably the first time in years that I went on an out of the country trip – and the first without my parents.
