Hey guys,

Check it out!

Yesterday, I went out for a late lunch with my family at Seoul Garden HarbourFront branch. It was a rainy afternoon, but we reached our booking time. While the rest of the family went to the restaurant, my nephew and I went to park the car. 

Parking spaces are always a problem in a shopping center, even during the holidays. We had to wait a while before finding a spot near the lift. Been a while since I last went to Harbour Front. We used to take ferries to Sentosa Island.

We used to go to Sentosa to swim and picnics. I remember going there with my schoolmates to watch a rock concert. It's totally different now and they offer more for tourism. I haven't been to Sentosa since then. They have built part of it for the rich to live.

Singapore is a haven for the rich. It's not cheap to live in Sg. To live in sg, you need a job. Sound simple. That's why you have many foreigners working here. As a modern city, you need many workers to work and keep it running like a machine 24-7.

I've wanted to test the Kodak Pixpro FZ55 camera that I recently bought. I'm impressed. I was afraid of stability while taking pictures and videos. You can set the camera to anti-shakiness. You still have to keep your hands from moving all over the place. 

Although there is still shakiness to the videos, it makes the videos edgy. I preferably set the mode to Auto. I like to concentrate on taking the pictures instead of dabbling with the settings. If you go out with people, they can be impatient when you're trying to use a camera to take that perfect picture.

People are so used to using their phones to quickly take photos that they forget the process. When I first got my Nikon Coolpix P950 camera and learned to use the camera, I started to enjoy taking pictures. I even started using the technique when using a mobile phone camera.

I began to notice things around me. I began to look at things from different angles and perspectives. I delve more into what I do with my camera and mobile phone camera. I like taking pictures of my food and posting them on Instagram and Facebook.

Yesterday, I didn't take photos of my outing with my phone but concentrated on using the FZ55. Because the size is small, I just keep it inside my pocket. When I wanted to take photos, I pulled it out of my pocket and clicked!

In fact, I mostly use it to take videos. You can watch the videos here or on my YouTube channel. For the price, the FZ55 is definitely a bargain. You can use it for basic everyday photography and videography. And, I love editing videos using the free Microsoft Clipchamp software. 

I enjoyed my lunch and taking pictures and videos with the Kodak Pixpro FZ55!

Hey guys,

Check it out!

Finally! I bought my first-ever indoor exercise bike. I've wanted one for a long time. I started cycling again after I got a job near my house. At the same time, Singapore has been building PCN aka Park Connector Network. Now, it's great fun to cycle the whole country.

Park hop, enjoy nature, and exercise at the same time. What's better than that? I have made many cycling videos, you can check them out on my YouTube channel here. I only learned about the PCN after I got interested in cycling again.  

Click here for the latest Indoor Exercise Bike deals on Amazon!

There are new networks and places I have yet to go. Sg has cycling parks and nature reserves you can visit even if you're not into cycling. Check out my Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve pictures and videos I took with my Nikon Zfc and a 50-250mm Nikkor Zdx lens.

I didn't cycle there as it's quite far. However, I cycled to Woodlands Waterfront Park which is nearby. I went with a friend and we had fun checking the place out. If you're interested in bird photography, it's one of the places to go. There are only food and drink vending machines available.

After a vacation to Hatyai Thailand, my left knee got swollen again. Watch my vacation video here. I tried to be careful but it got worse and it's only after over five months that it got better. I couldn't bend my knee or walk properly and my foot got swollen.

Well, it did get better. I went cycling again and ended up swollen again. Watch my last cycling video before my knee got swollen again here. I planned just a short cycling distance. It looks near on the Google map. It's too far and I only reached home around midnight.

After quitting my job, the only way I can cycle regularly is to get an indoor cycling bike. I did some research and got one within my budget. They're all the same. Try to get one with a good offer or free gifts. Mine was delivered with a hole at the side and the box looks like it's been through a lot. Lol

There was a tear on the left handle and only one bubble wrap for the right handle which was weird. Everything else looks good and it was easy to set up. I could put a bottle holder on it. Mine didn't have a speedometer but included a cadence sensor that works with the "MyWhoosh" cycling app.

Click here for Bike Sensors' latest deals on Amazon!

I have an Apple Watch Ultra. I use it when cycling and can now also use it for indoor cycling. It checks my timing, heart rate, and calories burned. I link it to my iPhone and Strava. Pretty nifty. There are many free cycling music and videos on YouTube. 

I decided to make my own indoor cycling music and videos. Check 'em out here! Since I already have many cycling videos I can use them. I also just converted another cycling video here. The first one is a 40-minute range, while the second is a short 9 minutes. 

I'm really enjoying my new indoor cycling bike. I'm able to maintain a certain level of fitness. It's a low-impact exercise for my bad knees.

The Moon | Nikon Coolpix P950 #moon #nikon #nikoncoolpixp950

Click here for the Nikon Coolpix P950's latest deals on Amazon!

(All links will open up in a new tab.)

Hey guys,

Check it out!

The Moon video above was taken a few years back when I bought my first camera, the Nikon Coolpix  P950. It was on offer so, I took the chance. The main reason I was interested in the camera is its capability to zoom to the moon. 

I checked out some of the videos on YouTube and I was amazed. Being able to take a close look at the moon was very exciting. There is also the Nikon P1000. The zooming is more powerful than mine P950. I would have gotten it, if not for the higher price.

Click here for the Nikon Coolpix P950's latest deals on Amazon!

I also take photos and videos of places like the last fishing village, Jenal Jetty. It's basically, the only existing commercial fishing village in Singapore. Recently, there was news of a big crocodile spotted around that area. Luckily, it wasn't there when I was taking photos by the seaside.

Watch the video to check out the place. Another nice place I went to is the Singapore Botanical Garden. I managed to take videos of wild chickens and monitor lizards. I saw one beautiful black monitor lizard and quickly took a video. Pretty handy to have a zooming camera! 

Click here for the Nikon Coolpix P950 latest accessories deals on Amazon!

You can also view videos and photographs of the Jurong Lake Garden. Since I was still new to using a real camera, there were certain things I forgot to do or take note of. There are many settings available and scenarios you can choose from. I usually use Auto mode.

I also sometimes feel that I don't have the need to edit the pictures. I prefer it to be as original as possible. The way I see it is what I want others to see it too. I always reset everything back to the original after dabbling with the editing.

I enjoyed going to Changi Beach and took pics and videos of ferry boats and airplanes. Even though I've been there many times, I didn't realize you can watch airplanes by the beach. I remembered watching the news about airplane enthusiasts going there to watch them.

I thought that's a good idea. I can definitely use my P950 to do that too. There are many sides to the Changi area and I decided to visit the Changi Point Boardwalk to take pictures. It has nice views and you can walk on the coastal boardwalk till the end.

I cycled there and when I reached the place, it was low tide. I saw many nice big rock formations. Watch the video for some cool photos that I took. I've lived in my own country and wouldn't have known this place existed. All thanks to my new interest in photography.

That is what I realized. Once, I got interested in photography, I began to see things in a different light. I didn't know you can look at things in various ways. Yes, I take photos and videos with my phone but didn't think much of it until I used a real camera.

Hey guys,

Check it out!

I had my Nikon Coolpix P950 for a couple of years now. Looking back at all the pictures and videos I have taken with it makes me realize I'm good as a photographer or videographer. I'm still learning though. There are still things that I need to understand. 

The good thing is that the more I practice and learn to use my camera, the better I get. Currently, I'm using my Nikon Z8 as my main camera. I decided to purchase it, although it was expensive. I count it as an investment in knowledge and skills.

Click here to get the latest Nikon Coolpix P950 deals on Amazon!

I have always been interested in photography. I remember borrowing my mom's camera to take photos. Where is it now or what brand? Film is such a hassle. People like it but compared to the mirrorless camera, it's much easier to use and share on social media.

I remember taking many photos and when I sent them to the shop, some pictures couldn't be developed. One time, my platoon Sergeant, took out his film roll after it passed through the airport scanner. It's because people say the X-rays will destroy the pictures. 

Click here to get the latest Nikon Z8 deals on Amazon!

He's such an idiot. I didn't have any problem with my films. I still have them after over twenty years. I took pictures using my phone and posted some of them online. Memories are what we all hang to in our later years. That's why I re-edited and re-posted my P950 videos.

Here are links to some photography and videography adventures I took using my Nikon P950. 

• Singapore Botanic Gardens
• Singapore Changi Beach
• Singapore Jurong Lake Garden
• Singapore Last Fishing Village
• The Night Photography Test at Bedok Reservoir
• The Moon Shot

Recently, I also took photos and videos using my Nikon Zfc. Check 'em out below!

• Singapore Woodlands Waterfront Jetty
• Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve
• Hiking Bukit Timah Rail Corridor
• Hatyai Thailand Vacation Street Photography
• Hatyai Thailand 2nd Day Vacation Street Photography
• Hatyai Thailand 3rd Day Vacation Night Photography

Watch the videos above if you want to visit or learn about Singapore or Thailand. 

I love the Nikon Zfc too. It's a good budget camera to bring along on vacations. It's so good, my nephew wanted to buy it from me. But, he changed his mind when we came back home. Anyway, I had great fun taking photos and videos with it.

Click here to check out the latest Nikon Zfc deals on Amazon! 

I'm actually interested in the latest Fujifilm XM5. What caught my eye is that it has many film simulations for photography and videography settings. I like the silver design which looks like my Nikon Zfc. It also costs the same with or without the lens included. 

I think I suck at editing pictures and videos. That's one thing I'm trying to learn and improve on. That's why I mostly prefer shooting in auto and jpeg. But, the Nikon Z8 doesn't have auto settings. Which is good as it forces me to learn to shoot manually. Dabbling with all the settings.

I'm learning to edit my Nikon Z8 RAW videos with Davinci Resolve. I'm having fun upgrading my knowledge and skills. I want to make more great videos for my YouTube channel!

Is SINGAPORE becoming a cycling haven? #cycling #roadbike #mountainbike #gravelbike

Hey guys,

Check it out!

Is Singapore becoming a cycling haven?

It is. I recently started cycling because I found a new work near my place. Rather than walking to a nearby bus stop, waiting another 5-7 mins for the bus to come, and reaching 7 mins later, cycling would be a much better option.

I can walk to work but it'll take over 20mins. The best alternative is of course cycling. It's much faster and most importantly, I'll save around $80/mth. There are also health benefits of cycling to work every day. I have definitely improved my overall fitness.

The good news is that Singapore is starting to provide better cycling lanes for cyclists. The old pathway is getting wider and there's a clearly painted lane. Pedestrians don't have to worry about getting hit by reckless cyclists. They even provide special lanes at the traffic lights.

People are still getting used to the separate lanes. Some pedestrians insist on walking on the cycling lane. And vice versa. Hopefully, with more cycling lanes, more people will start to cycle either for health or as another form of eco-friendly transportation.

At first, I just cycled my bike to work every day. Later on, once I got my confidence, I decided to venture out during my off day. I planned to go to a famous place called the Lor Halus Red Bridge. As it was my first time, I had to ask people for directions.

I frequently stop by the bridge before continuing to other places like Pasir Rish Beach or Changi Beach. The other day, I tried a new cycling route called the Eastern Corridor. As it was my first time trying out the route, I got lost numerous times. Some of the routes lead to a dead end.

Google Maps is your friend. I used it when I went out cycling to new places. I'll re-calibrate my position and choose a different route. For those wanting to try out the new route, follow the river. That's my tip. It is also quite far. Look out for the route signage. 

You can watch my cycling video using the eastern corridor trail to East Coast Beach here. You can also watch all my other cycling videos cycling to such places via the links in this post. Of course, you can visit my YouTube channel here for more cycling videos.

One of my favorite places to cycle to is Coney Island. A nice, quiet place to cycle, walk, jog, or enjoy the beautiful beach scenery. Remember, that you have to leave the place by 7pm. As they will close the gate. You are not allowed to stay overnight.

There are two entrances on each end of the tiny island. From the western gate, you can cycle to a nearby Punggol jetty or boardwalk. From there, you can cycle back to Sengkang Riverside Park or continue to the last fishing village, Sembawang Park, Woodlands Waterfront Park, or jetty.

Well, what do you think? Is Singapore becoming a cyclist haven? There are some places yet that I have never been to. Ketam Mountain Bike Park in Pulau Ubin, Chestnut Nature Park, Bukit Timah Bike Trail, and many others. All in this tiny Island country. lol

Cycling has also made me interested in photography and videography. I'll be talking about it in another post. You can check out one of my photography adventures in this video. My first ever camera was the Nikon P950. One of my pictures has almost been viewed by millions on Google Maps! 

Watch my latest new carbon hybrid gravel bike with a straight handlebar video here. My new Chili red mountain bike here. My new fixie aero design GRAY here. And, my JAVA J AIR Fuoco gold road bike here!

Easy to say, cycling has made me enjoy the outdoors. It also helps that Singapore is becoming a cycling haven!

Singapore The Last Fishing Village - Nikon Coolpix P950 83x Optical SuperZoom #Nikon

Nikon COOLPIX P950 Digital Camera: with 83x Optical Zoom, 4K and Built-in Wi-Fi (Black) + 128GB 1200X SDXC Card + 2 EN-EL20 Batteries + Case + Flexible Tripod + Pro Bundle: International Version

Hey guys,

Check it out!

A friend asked me if I wanted to follow her to check out a place called #thelastfishingvillage, The Last Fishing Village. It's literally, the last fishing village as there's no other place like it anywhere else in the country. It's not that big though.

You can view the pictures and videos here on my Youtube Channel. Don't forget to like, share & subscribe. There are also a few other videos more on the P950 that I have uploaded to my channel. So, please check them out too. Thanks!

Of course, I wanted to go mainly because I now have the Nikon Coolpix P950. A chance for me to take interesting pictures and videos with it. As I've said before, photography and videography are still new to me. I'm still testing and checking out all the settings of the camera. 

I met an older gentleman with assuming his wife and we had a nice chat. He saw me showing the camera to my lady friend and finally came over. He's kinda a bird enthusiast and has been to many locations just to take pictures of birds.



Nikon COOLPIX P950

His daughter recommended getting the Nikon P1000 because of the zooming capabilities. It's obviously great for bird watching. He asked me if the camera was any good, how heavy it is, and which one is better. Well, the first thing I told him was that I'm still new at photography and at using the camera.

I told him, the camera had already been out for a while and the pictures might not be up to his standard if he's a pro. He showed me his kinda old looking small camera. I think it's a sony. The P950 is a tad heavy but certainly lighter than the P1000.



Photographer's Guide to the Nikon Coolpix P950: Getting the Most from Nikon's Superzoom Digital Camera

Well, one thing he really likes is the zooming. Keeps talking about it. Definitely, great for taking pictures and videos of birds. He showed me some eagle pics and one with prey on its leg. Pretty amazing. Although, I didn't see any while checking out the fishing village.

He also showed me some other birds' pics that he took. I definitely need to go and check out some of the places that he recommended me to go to. I'm not really a bird-watching enthusiast. But, I'm interested in taking some eagles' pics and videos.



COOLPIX P950 Compact Digital Camera with 83x Optical Zoom Super Telephoto Lens + Expo Premium Accessories Bundle

Even if you're not using zooming to watch birds or other animals, it's still great for zooming to a faraway area. I get to zoom to boats far out at sea or big ships docking at the other side of the land. Been many a time, I wanted to do it when I didn't have the camera before.

A lot of people actually were interested when they saw the camera. Maybe because most of them only use their mobile phones. I did see some other guys using different kinds of cameras. Next time, I might want to talk to them or check out their gears.

Check out some of my photos below:

More pics and videos on my upload youtube video here. Check it out!

I really had a fun day, taking pictures and videos. And, frankly, to me, the pics and videos that I took are pretty cool. But, I only realized, I didn't use the UV filter all the while. Anyway, I tried the neutral variable filter for the last few shots. Looking forward to more adventures with my P950!

One last thing, surprisingly, the battery lasts for almost 4 hours. Maybe because I seldom use the zoom?

Jewel Changi Airport Waterfall & Marina Barrage Day out Nov 2020!

Jewel Changi Airport

Hey guys,

Check it out!

Did you know Singapore has successfully contained the spread of the Coronavirus Covid-19 virus? Currently, it's reported in the news that there's been zero infection in the community. There are still worries of infections but they're mostly from external visitors.

In the early stages, the government didn't want a lockdown, but once it got worse they quickly planned a lockdown that also includes cash give outs and helping companies to cope with the economic impacts. Unlike, some countries, the fact, the govt acted fast has managed to minimize infections and death.



Singapore: Unlikely Power

Anyway, I had a defect with the portable monitor that I bought almost two weeks ago. I seldom have any problem with the products that I bought. So, it's kind of a hassle when I suddenly realized there's a white spot on the screen.

Luckily for me, my sis rented a car because they're thinking of going out around town. I checked with the seller as I've got 3 months warranty. He says I could come over to their warehouse anytime to exchange the monitor.



Portable Monitor - Lepow 15.6 Inch Full HD 1080P USB Type-C Computer Display IPS Eye Care Screen with HDMI Type C Speakers for Laptop PC PS4 Xbox Phone Included Smart Cover & Screen Protector Black

I'm actually using the new portable monitor right now. Like, I've said before, if you're already used to using multiple monitors as your main setup, it feels kinda limiting when you go back to say, using your laptop. That's why I'm thinking of getting an attachable monitor for my laptop. 

After I've made the exchange, my niece wanted to go to Jewel Changi Airport where you can see the famous waterfall. The waterfall is actually located inside the Airport. Surrounded by beautiful greenery. There's a big Christmas tree that you can walk through as it's almost December.



Jewel Changi Airport

Frankly, it's the first time I've visited the Jewel Changi Airport. So, I'm pretty amazed when I finally get to see the man-made waterfall. Which seems to fall from the sky. You can watch the video I took here. You can sit down and relax all around the waterfall before going off to your next destination.

Well, they wanted something different and special that visitors, local or foreign from around the world to enjoy when they come to an airport. It's definitely something different and exquisite. Besides that, you can also do your shopping too.



Fodor's In Focus Singapore (Full-color Travel Guide)

My niece finally got her Apple Watch at an Apple Store there, which she's been thinking of buying for a while. I'm still wondering if I should get one. But, I don't really like the design though. I prefer my G-Shock watch collections.

We later went to pick-up, my nephew and my sis husband. Had dinner and went to the Marina Barrage. A nice place to take a walk or exercise. A lot of cyclist and runners was there when we reached the place. I also took a video of the place. It's all on my youtube video.



Singapore: The Solo Girl's Travel Guide Kindle Edition

Yup, we had a nice day/night out. Especially, when you have been coop up in your house for a couple of months because of the pandemic. But, if you did your part and help each other, you can achieve anything. I don't see the point of stupid protesting when it can save lives. Especially, your loved ones!

Even though, the virus infection case is zero, we still wear our mask dutifully. Most of the time, others are wearing it too. So, it's not just me and my family. The governments are also working with other countries to try to create a route bubble for travel.

Check out some of my photos below:

The pandemic is not the end of the world, yet. Do your part, stay safe, be safe. We're all in this together. Nobody or country is an island. Well, Singapore, literally is an island. No point in complaining or protesting. It'll be over sooner rather than later!

Hey guys,

Check it out!

I thought of doing this yesterday night and finally, it's done and uploaded on my youtube channel. A news compilation videos of how and when the virus starts. Also, include what's been happening in hospitals all over the world that has been hit hard.

In the beginning, not many realized how serious the virus is. And, some, especially the young don't even care if the virus spreads and killing the older generations. People were going to beaches, pubs, clubs, concerts, and parties. Inadvertently, spreading the virus to others.

Thousands are already infected and dead before, mayors and the governor and even the president of the U.S. denying the virus saying it's a hoax contorted by the democrat's party. The governor of New York City, California, and other states are now preparing for the worst to come. Makeshifts hospitals have been prepared with ventilators to help projected incoming patients.

They're all learning from the cases in Italy which is the hardest hit followed by Spain and the U.K. Apparently, the prime minister of Britain himself been infected with mild cases and now under quarantine in his home. In the meantime, China has started to open up its countries and calling people back to work. With some wondering, if it's too early.

Asia, of course, has not been spared. South Koreans have managed to control and contained the virus. Everyone saying how the world should follow the Koreans model of stopping it from getting worse. India is only now on lockdown but having too many poor people all wanting to go back home with no money or food. Things could get much worst.

Iran themselves have been denying how bad the Covid-19 has been affecting their country. Even though their own health minister has been infected. And, been spreading it around himself. Singapore and other ASEAN government have started their own stimulus packaged to help cope with the economic downturn. Which, obviously been hurting companies, big or small.

There are those who love conspiracy theories and frankly, I'm keeping an open mind. Some have definitely taken advantage of the coronavirus pandemic by selling off stocks they owned. Even then, no real investigations have been done.

Right now, the only thing people are concentrating on is finding the cure and telling people to stay at home. Which some Italy mayors are having a hard time trying to make the people listen to them. You can see the videos of them even threatening the people that disobey.

One of the silver linings is that the animals are actually coming back to enjoy the relative peace. That once was taken over by humans. Dolphins, birds are all enjoying their freedom. The air pollution has actually been down since people start staying at home. Although, that would only be temporary as the Chinese have started to open up their factories again.

All eyes are now to the U.S. where they're battling to stop the virus from getting worse. It's still early yet and they're all bracing for the worse to come. They have already top China with 100k infected and almost two thousand deaths.

Let just hope the people listen and stay at home so that the health system wouldn't be overwhelmed. It's basically a test to see how the Americans cope with this new disease. We all know, this would not be the first and the last.

If the world can cope with the covid-19, and get out of this virus attack. I hope they would learn to always be prepared for the worst. Mother nature, always know how best to teach the human to respect it. Now, let the animals have their fun and let nature rest even for a while.
