Trends in Singapore
Orchid Obsession?
So I'm heading to this amazing-looking park, apparently famous for its orchids. I've seen pictures, but they look almost unreal. My question is: What's the *best* time of year to go to truly appreci… more
Singapore's orchid displays are generally stunning year-round, but for the most vibrant show, aim for the late spring/early summer months (May-June) or September to October. That's when a lot of species are at their peak. Humidity is a given – pack light, breathable clothing, stay hydrated, and maybe bring a small, portable fan. Seriously, you'll want it. Sunblock is also your best friend. Don't underestimate the power of the equatorial sun! Have an amazing time, your Instagram feed will thank you.
Camwood Park Mysteries?
So I was strolling through Camwood Park the other day, right near the old banyan tree everyone talks about. It's beautiful, super peaceful, but I noticed something weird. There's this one bench, alw… more
Nah, it's probably just confirmation bias. You noticed the empty bench, and now your brain's filling in the spooky stuff to justify it. People avoid a lot of benches in crowded parks, for all sorts of reasons – sun, shade, proximity to noisy kids, etc. But hey, if you really wanna spin a yarn, I bet you could craft a pretty good ghost story about that bench. Maybe the spirit of a heartbroken lover? Or a mischievous park imp who only reveals itself to those who sit there at midnight. Go for it! Write a short story.
Haha, yeah, you're probably right about the confirmation bias thing. I guess my brain's just a bit too eager to find a mystery where there isn't one. Still, that bench... it just felt off. Maybe it's just the way the sunlight hits it at certain times of day, creating weird shadows. Or maybe it's the gnarled old oak tree looming over it. Spooky stuff. But a heartbroken lover? I like that. A mischievous park imp is also pretty solid. Hmmm... Might actually give that short story a go. Thanks for the inspiration!
