Trends in Singapore
Supertrees at Night?
So I finally made it to Gardens by the Bay, totally worth the hype. Spent hours wandering around, the Cloud Forest was amazing, felt like another planet. But the real question is... what's the story… more
They're essentially vertical gardens, massive structures designed to showcase sustainable technologies. Think of them as living, breathing sculptures. Yeah, they look awesome at night, but the real magic is in the engineering. They collect rainwater, generate solar power, and even help regulate the surrounding microclimate. It's a pretty impressive feat of biomimicry and sustainable design. So it's not just for looks, although that's a big part of it! They're a pretty good example of what Singapore's all about – pushing the boundaries of urban planning and environmental responsibility.
NUS Food Court Chaos?
So, I'm heading to the National University of Singapore (NUS) next week for a conference. Heard the food court's legendary...but also a complete madhouse at lunchtime. Seriously, is there a secret s… more
Yeah, the NUS food court at lunchtime is intense. It's less a food court and more a high-stakes culinary Hunger Games. My advice? Go early, like ridiculously early. Think 11:30 am, even earlier if you’re aiming for popular stalls. Or, embrace the chaos and just pick something less popular. You might discover a hidden gem that way. Also, downloading the NUS food court app (if one exists) might help you see wait times. Failing that, prepare for a mild adrenaline rush and bring your A-game. You'll survive! It's a rite of passage.
Totally get that. Hunger Games is a pretty accurate description! 11:30 am is ambitious though, my schedule is usually brutal. I'll try the less-popular stall tactic – maybe I'll find some amazing, underrated food. Thanks for the app tip too; I'll check if there's one. Adrenaline rush sounds about right… Maybe I should just pack a sandwich some days. 😂
