TRAVEL TO PLACES: SINGAPORE-- SENTOSA BEACH PATROL

My Personal Experience: I went to Sentosa Beach Patrol last September 17, 2015, together with my sister. We went there to spend time and check out spot in this sunny day at the beach!! Sentosa Beach Patrol is keeping the beach safe and they have lifeguard towers to see tourists in the water drowning. The scattered hoops are around the corner when needed or just for fun!

Sentosa Beach Patrol

Beach Patrol is a lifesaving service that patrols and guards the beaches of Sentosa daily, from 9am-7pm. Rain or shine; you’ll find us there perched on the observation tower looking after your safety. Then, the lifeguard towers were made up of attap roof. Now, our Beach Patrol Observation towers are built at 2 meters high and concreted with a storage space below. The big towers now are also equipped with solar panels to power our public announcement system.

My Movie Review: The movie is going reverse behind it's horizon with apocalypse backdrops. Transformers: The Last Knight has lesser impact compare to the previous three but it adds another flavor to the franchise just like the fourth instalment. It still a decent movie that doesn't deserve lower ratings cause it did its purpose to entertain and show us another side of the tale. Anthony Hopkins is reliant his presence alone is a gift the way he tell the story make you listen. The execution may not be smooth as expected but still deliver us fragment of visual greatness!
My Favorite Character: Bumblebee

Bumblebee is one and the best of Optimus Prime's most trusted lieutenants. Although he is not the strongest or most powerful of the Autobots, Bumblebee more than makes up for this with a bottomless well of luck, determination and bravery. He would gladly give his life to protect others and stop the Decepticons. Badly damaged in battle, Bumblebee lost the ability to speak verbally though he can communicate over Autobot frequencies. He can also communicate with the Autobots human allies and his friend Sam Witwicky by playing audio clips on popular radio.

TRAVEL TO PLACES: SINGAPORE-- PALAWAN BEACH

My Personal Experience: I went to Palawan Beach last September 17, 2015, together with my sister. We went there to unwind and explore the beach while sightseeing in the beach tram. Upon arrival I went to the signage and landmarks of the beach to take photos for few souvenir. Palawan Beach is fun place for both adult and child-like because it has artsy parts to discover!!

Palawan Beach

Palawan Beach lies in the centre of the southern coast of Sentosa. There is a suspension bridge that leads to a small islet off the coast which is said to be the southernmost point of continental Asia, or Asia's closest point to the Equator. There are several bars along the beach offering food and beverage options to visitors as well as Beach Station of the Sentosa Express. Palawan Beach was served by Central Beach Monorail Station, but this station closed in 2005.

My Movie Review: The movie is almost but not there it's going well until it's latter part ruined it! Everything, Everything is something you want to see cause it's giving that nice giddy feeling. Apart from story it has an amazing soundtrack that will make you feel the thirst of hot summer. The twist that Maddy doesn't have the rare disease and her mother just made it up to keep her safe really disgust me I felt like I watched a movie like this before it loosen the freshness I want but the last scene made up for it they end up running in the crowd leaving us with lasting sight!!
My Favorite Term: Severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID)

SCID is a rare genetic disorder by the disturbed development of functional T cells and B cells caused by numerous genetic mutations that result in heterogeneous clinical presentations. It is also known as the bubble boy disease/bubble baby disease because its victims are extremely vulnerable to infectious diseases and some of them have become famous for living in a sterile environment. SCID patients are usually affected by severe bacterial, viral, or fungal infections early in life or often present with interstitial lung disease, chronic diarrhoea and failure to thrive.

TRAVEL TO PLACES: SINGAPORE-- SENTOSA SUSPENSION BRIDGE

My Personal Experience: I went to Sentosa Suspension Bridge last September 17, 2015, together with my sister. We went there to cross Palawan Beach to the other side of the islands. It's a must-walk you will feel creating a moment once your in the bridge with this amazing view! Sentosa Suspension Bridge is long enough to walk through and perfect for photo opportunities.

Sentosa Suspension Bridge

Cool off at the wading pools at Palawan Beach after a hot, humid day and make your way to the Southernmost Point of Continental Asia by crossing the man-made suspension bridge. This point is a small island filled with towers there is a viewing deck that overlooks the ocean. Sounds like the perfect place for a first date. The suspension bridge on Palawan is really good. This beach is more protected from wind than other beaches in Sentosa. Good place for swim!!

My Movie Review: The movie is good if done right the pacing is poor way too fast you can't absorb really it. The Mummy bring up the fantasy of the dark universe that lead to misguide fix! The action scenes were massive will leave you at the edge of your sit but the sequence was not properly distributed. It's Tom Cruise must be good his movie star status didn't save the day! It may not be as polish as expected but this maiden film makes me look forward to the next film feature in the dark universe series. Sofia Boutella the two eyeball mummy is a good attraction!!
My Favorite Lines: "Please meet Princess Ahmanet. She will claim what has been denied." "Whatever's in there has been safely hidden for 2,000 years. This isn't a tomb, it's a prison." "The hieroglyphs said she was named Ahmanet, chosen to be Egypt's next queen. But her thirst for power led her down a dark path, one that had to be stopped." "She will not stop until she has remade our world into her own." "Legend has it, she's a being with unimaginable powers. Now she's using you to regain them. "Welcome to a new world of gods and monsters." "It takes a monster to defeat a monster. "You can't run, you can't escape, she got plan for you."

TRAVEL TO PLACES: THE SOUTHERN MOST POINT OF CONTINENTAL ASIA

My Personal Experience: I went to Singapore- The Southernmost Point Of Continental Asia last September 17, 2015, together with my sister. We went there to get insight on the island by exploring the landmarks. Its said that Southernmost Point is Asia's closest point to the Equator.

TRAVEL TO MOVIES: THE LOST CITY OF Z

Director: James Gray

Cast: Charlie Hunnam , Robert Pattinson , Tom Holland , Sienna Miller , Angus Macfadyen
Plot: The Lost City of Z tells the incredible true story of British explorer Percy Fawcett, who journeys into the Amazon at the dawn of the 20th century and discovers evidence of a previously unknown, advanced civilization that may have once inhabited the region. Despite being ridiculed by the scientific establishment who regard indigenous populations as "savages," the determined Fawcett - supported by his devoted wife, son and aide de camp returns time and again to his beloved jungle in an attempt to prove his case, culminating in his mysterious disappearance in 1925.

Source: http://www.insing.com/movies/the-lost-city-of-z-2017/id-32ed0000/

My Movie Review: The movie is painful to watch tested my patience such a long long journey. The Lost City Of Z is dark engrossing story to unexplored territories of the Old Amazon Jungle. Didn't plan to see but caught my interest felt the strength of the human spirit in both Fawcett for trying to prove what he believe in and His Wife for having courage to wait for the longest time. James Gray take maybe a hit for some but it's a missed opportunity showing dense poor clarity and making the movie worst doesn't justify the case make me wish to end as soon as possible.

More Description: The role of Percy Fawcett was originally supposed to be played by Brad Pitt. However after discussions, both Brad and the director felt the role should be played by a British actor. This allowed Brad Pitt the opportunity to take the lead role in World War Z while they went on to sign Benedict Cumberbatch. Benedict was all set to go when his wife became pregnant and preferred not to give birth in the middle of the Amazon. This eventually led them to sign on with Charlie Hunnam. Percy Fawcett ones said that: If we may find a city, where one was considered impossible to exist, it may well write a whole new chapter in the human history.

TRAVEL TO PLACES: SINGAPORE-- PALAWAN ISLAND

My Personal Experience: I went to the Palawan Island also known as Pulau Palawan last September 17, 2015, together with my sister. We went there to see a glimpse of beach in the Beach Station. How to get there instantly transfer to the trams that are available at the station. The blue trams go to Siloso Beach while the green trams go to Palawan and Tanjong Beaches!

Palawan Island

Pulau Palawan known as Palawan Island, is a slipper-shaped islet located just off the south western coast of Sentosa, south of Singapore. Lies approximately opposite Beach Station of the Sentosa Express monorail system, which is between Siloso Beach and Palawan Beach. Originally a reef known as Serembu Palawan, and marked on at least one map as "Palawan Reef", it was renamed Pulau Palawan after land reclamation. The island now has area similar to that of Pulau Biola. Palawan is variant of the Malay word pahlawan meaning hero or warrior.

My Movie Review: The movie is hilarious despite of the mishap happening as it played along!! Baywatch is a big-screen revival of the TV lifeguards show supposed to be iconic but this one take a different turn that doesn't make sense. Priyanka Chopra is blown apart with a firework is not realistic and too much exposure with flesh in the dead man body to the point it's disgusting! It still bring the summer vibe but not what I expected Jon Bass (Ronnie) was the breakout star!! Kelly Rohrbach lived up the Pam Anderson role while the actors not mention didn't done much.
My Favorite Lines: "Welcome to Baywatch. Our team is the elite of the elite. We’re the heart and soul of this very beach. We protect when other people don’t want to protect, and we go above and beyond." "Our team is the heart and soul of this very beach. Protect the bay at all costs." "If you want me, you can have me." "What is it that you think we do here? Prevent people from getting sun burnt and occasionally stop them from drowning." "We’re going to have to do what Baywatch does best. The truth one of you will probably die. Yeah. What? No." "This is the guy you think is a good PR opportunity for us. He’s reckless. With two gold medals. How many gold medals do you have probably zero." "Look get it you’re big sasquatch I’m fast."
