Skywatch-Friday-St. Joseph's Church

Saint Joseph's Church is a Roman Catholic church in Singapore. The church was constructed from 1906 to 1912 with its foundation-stone laid two years earlier. The building was built in the Gothic style by the Portuguese Mission. For more on this church you can view from source.

Looking at the church from another angle. Geez, I am such a poor photographer...lol.

I took this photo of the church from Waterloo Complex through this rounded structure. If only the small tree would not obstruct the view, it would look better.
The taller building opposite the church is the National Library which I had posted earlier.

Closer look at the church's beautiful windows.

My second sister is a catholic and sometimes she comes to this church for service. My family is like my country, we have buddhist, taoism, christain, catholic and free thinkers and we live in harmony. :)

What Movies Did I watch with my little niece? (Answer)

The answer is ..............Night at the Museum 2.


Hahaha....maybe the description of eight year old make you all think she wanted to watch a cartoon movie.

She is quite mature for her age and she dont really like cartoon.


She is looking forward to the soon to be released movie of Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince. She told me in this movie Harry Potter will die. OMG, she knows more than me...lol

A day out to the movie

Yesterday, I brought my eight year old niece out to the movie. She told me it was her first time out to the movies but I think she cannot recall the times when my brother brought her out to the movies when she was much younger...lol. Anyway, she was so excited and happy.
It was a delight to watch the movie with her and both of us was laughing so hard in the cinema. I am a kid all over. Lucky for me I still have a little niece to play with and go out with ....lol. My two grown up sons are too engrossed with their friends and activities to accompany me out for a movie and hubby would only watch movies that are all too boring for me..lol. I wondered what movies we watched while we dated...hehehehe

Can you guess which movies little niece and me watch? Answer will be revealed one day later. :)

National Library - Part 2 - Visitors Centre

Continued from yesterday's post on the National Library of Singapore. I could only show you the outside of the 5th floor visitor Centre. I could not take any photos inside the library and do not want to disturb the people in there too.

Full of greenery outside the visitors centre and users can come here and do their projects or listen to stories being told.

Amazing they could bring tall plants and trees on this fifth floor.

Noticed the glass panels on the side of the buildings, you could see the library inside there.

A sculpture in the visitors centre.

From the visitors's centre, I could view the surrounding area.

Do you remember the Iluma Shopping Centre that I posted in an earlier post.
I will show you more about Iluma in coming post.

My World Tuesday-National Library (Part 1)

This is our new National Library which is so big compared to the old library that I used to go during my childhood. Perhaps I used to go there during my younger days and I was sentimental about the demolition of the old library. You can view a photo of the old library in here

It is about 16 storey high and very spacious and the library was internationally recognised as an architectural icon and designed as a 'green' building, its deployment of various innovative 'green' features helps to keep the building operating in an energy-efficient way and to do its part for a more sustainable environment. (Read more from source.)

Looking up from the ground floor, the library has very beautiful glass panels.

Inside the library, the ground floor is so spacious and clean.

The outside of the lirary with nicely designed shelters.

I cant take much photos of the inside library, you have to look at the official website in here.

The main entrance of the library. Inside the escalators move only when the sensors capture anything in front of it to save energy. At first, I thought the escalators were faulty and I had to climb the escalators ...lol.

I will post the visitors centre with greenery and with a view of the surrounding area on the fifth floor tomorrow, so please come back and visit.
