Even till 10.30pm of 31st December 2012, my mum, Sheryl, Swing and I were still clueless of where to go for countdown. We set off at 11.15pm and decided to head Mount Faber, hoping to catch glimpses of fireworks from Vivo City and Sentosa. Luckily, we were stuck at the slope down from The Jewel Box (around the peak of Mount Faber) and managed to capture the magnificent view of the 1 minute long fireworks~!
The next day, we woke up pretty late so our New Year Day's activity started around 3pm where Swing's family and I headed to Punggol Point Park (our intended venue was Hort Park). I didn't regret heading here! The sea breeze is amazing!

There are public toilets, wash area, lotus pond, jetty and lots of sitting areas! Watch the planes and eagles soar in the huge piece of the sky!
Overlooking Malaysia again!
In the evening, we set off to Changi Village as we happened to google that Changi Village has resumed its operation on the 1st day of 2013! There were lots of queues at the various Nasi Lemak stores and I was queuing at the one with the longest queue.
While I was queuing, I saw many finished plates of Nasi Lemak and had this strong feeling I was queuing at the "wrong"stall. Then, I heard a passerby saying that the store I was queuing for, was just lucky they got the first stall. I knew it was the wrong store!
Thank God for smartphone! I googled for the correct store and ta-dah!
After I joined this queue, the lady behind me verified that this is the correct famous Nasi Lemak store because her sister works in Changi Village. They shifted the store location to the outer row of food stalls. They are selling each plate at $3.50 and my waiting time was around 70minutes.
It was a long tiring day but at the same time, it is a rather different way to kickstart my year :)
