Outfit and Photography Tips for Trick Eye Museum + Singapore Trip GIVEAWAY!


Hello, everyone!
Our latest trip to Singapore was "trickier" than usual; it involved this unique museum where we got to take a lot of photos while having fun at the same time, Trick Eye Museum! :D

Originates in Korea, Trick Eye Museum is an art gallery with paintings that give each 2D art piece the illusion of being in 3D, which is really cool!

If you're getting bored of typical tourist photos, we really recommend this place where you can take pictures that have some tricks to the eyes.

Aight, enjoy the pics and tips, and don't forget to join the giveaway at the end of this post! :)

There is a sample photo next to each artwork (far right on the wall ↑) to give you an idea on how the artwork works. #phototips1

↑ Pay attention to details! For example, from the above picture, the hair must fall on the table to make it more realistic. #phototips2 

 ↑ Your pose and expression can help the artworks look more 'alive' too! #phototips3 
 Joe: "Help me, I'm slipping!" | Elle: "Ugh, so annoying! *kick*"
Don't be afraid to create interactive poses that have stories! #phototips4

 In Trick Eye Museum, you won't find signs such as 'Don't Touch' or 'No Flash' or 'No Taking Off Clothes'! You can go wild creating your pictures! :D #phototips5

 ↑ Girls, please wear shorts or skorts or pants, so you can move around and pose more freely! #outfittips1

 Joe: "Helllpppp!" | Elle: "What a huge fish, let me take a selfie first." | Jess: "Our brother is being chased by a sea monster. Tweet sent."

*prayed that Joe was okay*

 ↑ Joe's fate after falling from a bamboo tree and getting eaten by a sea monster.

  Our punishment for not helping out Joe. x'D 
We don't recommend wearing heels, unless you have no problem posing crazily in them. #outfittips2

"For all the times that you made me feel small." #loveyourselfreference

There are some artworks where you can pose prettily too! So, don't forget to put on a decent outfit! :) #outfittips3

Another important thing to create the optical illusion is the ANGLE. But fret not, there's an instruction on the floor that tells you where you should snap the picture. #phototips6

Cameras to bring: wide-lens cameras and/or cellphone cameras. #phototips7

*Reunited at last haha*

We had a lot of fun here, thank you so much, Trick Eye Museum! Such an interesting way to bond with your loved ones :)

Joe's Birthday Dinner at Pince & Pints, Singapore


So, our lil bro just turned 23 last week, but due to work and all, we couldn't celebrate it properly (we did surprise him on the 00:00 tho)! Luckily, we had this job last weekend in Singapore that required his involvement! Thus, we decided to take him to this lobster restaurant that we've been eyeing since last year... Pince and Pints!

The Lobster Roll (their best seller) — $58++
This one is very similar with Burger & Lobster's Lobster Roll in London (a Michellin-starred restaurant!), the taste was just as wonderful and rich, if not better. And the bread was delicious as well!
The Truffle Roll  $68++
(Just like The Lobster Roll but with the addition of Truffle Butter Sauce and Truffle Caviar) 
Chilli Lobster (accompanied by Fried Mantou)  $58++
The portion of this one is really HUGE! Maybe because of the rich, generous soup. 
Nevertheless, it's very delicious! The chili soup tastes sweet rather than spicy. The meat is fresh, juicy and easily peeled off from the shell. Heck, it's very delicious that even Jess finally decided to suckle the rest of the dish with her hands! X"D
 **rare occasion**
Joe with his Truffle Roll.

Glad that he loved it so much! He said it was definitely one of the best food he ever tasted hahah, but seriously though, their lobster was SO GEWDDD!!! And they use 1 whole lobster for each dish, so it's totally worth your money. We highly recommend it, especially if you love lobsters! ♥



Happy birthday once again, you lil monkey! No matter how old you are, how crazy you can be, you will always be our baby bro, and we will always have your back! x

Singapore with Mom and Bro!

Approximately last month, my mom, my brother and I went to Singapore, solely to avoid a rumored riot regarding Indonesian presidential election. Elle didn't come with us because she had a job, yeah she's brave (and money lovin) like that. The riot didn't happened, btw, thank God, so we really just flew out for nothing but this short, unplanned yet fun getaway! ;D
Late night Bakkut Teh with family is major LOVE!


So the day we arrived was started with me hopping on to the salon:

Blogged about it here. ^^

And then we strolled around the mall..


Helping bro picking out a casual blazer.
Fam selfie! 

Later on that night, we decided we're still hungry, so we went out hunting for BAKKUT TEH!!
This one Founder Bak Kut Teh was heavily recommended, and it opens til late at night (til 02-03 AM, I believe), so off we went! As you can see, the wall of this restaurant is filled with photographs of celebrities who visited this place, including Jay Chow lol. It's that famous!
It was actually quite a struggle, getting there, because we tried using a bus to get there, but we got off the wrong stop so we had to walk about... three blocks (do understand that we Indonesian don't really walk as much as Singaporean, so). When we finally saw the sign, we were like:

Overall, the Bakkut Teh was very good! The combination of the tender meat (which easily slipped off the bone), hot-clear-fragrant peppery soup, chopped chili, stewed soy sauce egg, pork liver, ETC. WAS SO NICE LAH!!! The service was fast. We were seated with another 3 people, but it's okay because the restaurant was really packed (eventhough it was 11 PM!) and it was a pretty big table. I recommend you to also try the Beancurd Skin, twas really good!
Founder Bak Kut Teh 发起人肉骨茶餐馆 | New Orchid Hotel, 347 Balestier Road, Singapore. Tel: 63526192
Lolled at the BadBoy GoodGirl Snapback my brother wore that night.

The next day! Sun was shining, birds were chirping…
And I decided to eat ice cream!


OOTD

Next stop was lunch at Shirokiya Chijmes!
Lol, taught mom this 'look down and smile' pose and she looked really cute doing it! Especially with her Japanese teeth (read: messy teeth lol). But what is it that she's holding there?
It's this SUPER DELICIOUS Soymilk Green Tea Ice Cream!! AAAAAAAA this one is really, really, really delicious, beyond expectation like mad!!! Must try!!

Blur but we're lovin it!! Mom, you can try other pose, actually lol.

Obligatory full body pose with moi pretty mama!

Later on that night:

SUPER BIG AND DELICIOUS Smoked Duck Breast Pizza at Marché OMG!!!!!!!! I had three slices I guess, so delicious!

Next day, we took the train to Marina Bay Sands and on the station, I saw this:
Haha it's a show and I wanna watch it! Hopefully I can!
Inside the mall. So beautiful, isn't it? ^^ If you're going to Singapore, you should visit Marina Bay Sands at least once! My number one reason for visiting this place is actually to take pictures… for my Instagram sponsors lol:

The view and natural lighting was very gorgeous lah, really easy to get good shots like this haha.

LOL AWKWARD SHOT WITH BRO!!! It's because there was this guy who suddenly approached us and offered to take our picture together because he thought we were on our honeymoon LOL WTH hahahaha.

Love you so much, mum!

♡♡♡

Last day!
Mom no longer doing the 'look down and smile' pose, instead, she looked down and posed like this lolol still so aegyo!
Itadakimasu! Yep, it's my turn for the 'look down and smile' pose lol. 

Nom nom!

Moving on, we passed by this very cute cafe, and turns out it's the Charlie Brown Cafe! So cute! 
Pretty mom with Snoopy 
Too bad we didn't get to try this place, because we were in a hurry. Next time, then!
But first, let me take a selfie. :b
A smooch because you're so cute, Charlie!

Finally got to this super awesome place that I DEARLY LOVE in Singapore:
   Four Seasons Durians | Takashimaya, 391 Orchard Road, B207-3-2 Food Hall, Singapore 238873. T: 67333009
Lolol Guarantee Shiok indeed!!!
The Durian Ice Cream tastes like an icy cold, super creamy rich Durian that melts in your mouth. MOTHAFREAKIN GOOD.


The Pancake Durian is also a bliss. Must try, must try!!
Seriously, must try!

Ah, Changi at last. T_T
Saw this very cute and girly baby pink female toilet sign!

Okay yes, before we're going back to Jakarta, of course mom had to shop for confections lol she's sweet like that.
:*  :O  XD

Okay then, thanks a lot for reading and see you guys on my next post! ˆ)づ♡
