Travel The World With Spongebob In 2014


Naren goes to Changi Airport once again to tell you how you can be entertained by and travel the world with Spongebob.

Ever felt the urge to travel but did not have the money to do so? Spongebob can help with that as statues of him appear around the airport in different parts of the world, providing you with a round the world trip with a twist to start 2014 off beautifully.

First up, Spongebob in Russia. Spongebob stands next to the famous St Basil’s Cathedral, making for a great photo and an interesting place to find out more about Russia because not too far from Spongebob, there are panels which tell you more about St Basil’s Cathedral and Russia.

Buy Gifts At Airport, Save Money


Naren checks out Changi Airport for he gifts and finds out where to get them wrapped. 

So, why would I want to go all the way to Changi Airport just to buy gifts? 

It is because most shops at the Airport have a Goods and Service Tax (GST) absorption policy, which means that, items you buy from the airport will be cheaper because you will not have to pay GST. 

I bought three books from Times Travel bookstore at the Terminal 3 Public Area, which normally would cost me $72.31 but after subtracting the GST ($4.73), it only cost me $67.58.

You must be thinking, “Where can I wrap the gifts?” 
Sad to say that there are only two places in the Airport that have gift wrapping service:


MINI TOONS is located at Departure Check-in Hall (Terminal 2) and Basement 2 of Terminal 3. Photo by: Naren Lee Sankar.
Yep, at Terminal 3's customer service, the staff had no idea where I could wrap gifts and so, after searching across all terminals and asking four people, I found that MINI TOONS wraps gifts for $5. Though it is more costly than your average price for wrapping a gift, the MINI TOONS staff wraps it very nicely for you.

Well folks, that wraps this post up but stayed tuned as I cover the Christmas entertainment Changi Airport has to offer real soon.

Catching Your Hearts On Fire this Saturday



What perfect way to spend your Saturday than spending it in the cinema to catch The Hunger 
Games: Catching Fire. With the downpour for the past few days, I’m sure all you want to do is to sit in a big comfortable chair and watch a good movie.

It’s that time of the year to repeat, “may the odds be ever in your favor” to your friends again! Back for the second period, its promising plot is making you regret every minute you sit on that couch reading this post instead of booking the tickets to watch it. Yes, it was that good! At least to me. Catching fire definitely topped my movie list this year. The new casts of tributes this season made my heart melt. Let me show you one good reason to watch- Sam Claflin.

Fabulous skin at Asian Skin Solution



It's that time of the year again where lights are up, everyone rushing to get gifts for their loved ones. Well, it's Christmas, guys, if you haven't got that yet. Other than gifts, we are all rushing to get things fixed, be it our home or ourselves. And everyone wants to look fabulous on Christmas or any other day at that. And what better to do that by dedicating the whole weekend to yourself and pampering yourself with only the best things in life because you deserve it.






To go for Bucks or Beans: That is the question



With Christmas round the corner, I drank special Christmas Coffees offered by Starbucks and Coffee Bean to find out which Coffee would make your Christmas Merry. For this review, I chose to review all the coffees using the small size.
