Love their efficiency, great coordination and good service. MyTicket, our online ticketing for events is somewhat the next better solution to other online ticketing service providers such as SIS*** .
It works simply by going to their site and buy the tickets to your drama, show, event, concert and other exciting affairs you would like to go, choose the date and time your desire, put in your details and simply make a credit card payment. You can opt to print out your ticket or a delivery. I mean its way more convenient then having to go down and hunt for the SIS*** booths in which the signs are always not visually friendly though I'm a 6/6 after putting on my contact lenses. No irritating extra charges and no confusing ticket buying procedures. Its only a ticket i'm buying... duh....
So i brought along my printed ticket to the event venue at Raffles Hotel and was a little lost for about a minute when I spotted signs and posters leading up to the event location. It was crowded yet it was easy to find somebody to guide me to wherever I needed and somebody even offered to exchange my print out ticket to a real paper ticket... i was excited to hold the REAL TICKETS, it sure feels different just like when you buy an inspired product will never feel as good as the REAL THING... I spotted security staffs all around the place dressed in all black, seemed to be guarding something important yet they have such smiles that don't look like they were about to make me their dinner aka. "Bull Dog Face"
The overall experience was warm and friendly with ample help and attention from the friendly organizers and staff. It was very pleasant and efficient. After the event, there was an autograph session and that proceeded pretty smoothly with neat queues and fast group photo-taking. They were generous with their printed media and there was no human jam even when exiting the area. Well coordinated and planned. Will engage them for future possible event and ticketing services.

Its a new concept of fun. How many of you have ever secretly hoped to model in front of a professional photographer but do not have the guts or chance to do it? Well, your new secret indulgence is here. The selfie studio where you can take pictures of all your beautiful and weird poses without worrying you might drive the photographer into a laughing fit.
So all you do is this, call to reserve a slot, turn up looking gorgeous and learn to use the remote to take selfies with the professional camera set-up while trying to pose gracefully in front of a mirroring monitor. Pick your props, a nice backdrop and bring some good friends for some groupie fun and be sure to bring home these great memories in the safety of a Compact Disc.
Its a little bit like the old photo booths when we pay 6 dollars to get our pictures taken,squeezing into that tiny booth and well the print out is a 3R with these tiny collages of prints where we cut, share and keep them in our wallets. However this time at the selfie booth, you get to pose for 30 mins and bring home all the pictures and get to decide if you want the nice ones in hard copy prints.
Photo quality is rather good because professional studio lighting, backdrop and equipments are used. I should say i feel less embarrassed when i get to pose with all my imaginations and you must know my imaginations are not always lady-like and some you can say are mildly weird. Use this to also take professional photos of yourself... If you are like me where my passport photos always looks terribly un-natural, then this is your chance to salvage all those ugly pictures by replacing them with pretty ones taken here.
Professional product pictures can also be taken here. If you some catalogues to create or merchandises you wish to put up on your eCommerce site, you could just bring them down and DIY your professional images. They have all the equipments to make your pictures looking perfect.
You be your own photographer less the skill and the cost to be one and create the look of your photos look like how you envision them to be. Be sure to say hi to the friendly owners and have alot of fun at the studio. Located at a spanking new mall (Bugis Cube) right opposite Toast box of Bugis Junction, you know where you need to go when you want some pretty selfies.

Yew Tee Point, one of those gems you find in the heartland with plenty of festive events and surprising activities for the young and old. Located right next to the Yew Tee MRT Station, this welcoming mall boost generous walkways and cool air-conditioning especially comforting for a hot afternoon.
This is one of those malls that encompasses the swanky new shop front designs and a good variety of smaller cart stalls in the middle of the walkways like shopping in of those earlier malls. Its a mix of the benefits of two era whereby you get a good variety of shops with a fast turnover rate and great shopping deals because overheads were kept low. Cart stalls were one of those brilliant creations that maximizes space and minimizes redundant resources while at the same time requires less commitment then a proper shop-front, great for startups and small businesses.
I must say the flea held at the first level concourse was surprisingly fun. This week the mall is celebrating national day with a vintage theme called: "reminiscing the good old days" and I got to take pictures with my favourite vintage Vespa Hot Red scooter and a sweet pink Volkswagen van which very much reminded me of the 50s when we still had black and white TV and radio was a large part of our lives. The flea was fun when they also sold toys that reminded me of my childhood like tops, five stones, pick up sticks and many more games that we could never get bored with. Not forgetting our Singapore Icon the Merlion as i always couldn't get a good photo with the REAL BIG it at the Singapore River, now I could get a nice picture with the miniature that's spewing LED lights... simply lovely.
I was pleasantly surprised when i get to the basement which seemed much more crowded then the level above it. Grocery shoppers with bagful of items from the NTUC supermarket and theres even a UNITY pharmacy to cater to all my prescribed needs. An awesome and spacious food court with a couple of nice restaurants and takeaway food specialities at the concourse.
Pssst..... My little secret.... " I found the best valued and quality japanese sushi restaurant here at this mall... "
The basement is so large that the concourse could even house a flea selling household items. I love the character of the mall. Its spacious and have space for lots of carts, events like fleas, bazaars, roadshows yet even when the crowd fills up, the place don't feel congested with traffic jams everywhere. The design of the mall keeps accessibility in mind with escalators and entrances well planned for a pleasant shopping experience. Great variety of small booth shops and shopping is easy on the pocket. Overall its a really nice place to spend the afternoon for the whole family.

Do you like vintage looking watches? Dainty Little things carry a good range on their online shop. I found some really interesting pieces at their booth at the MEGA FLEA 12 and couldn't help but regard now for not being from them at the bazaar!
Love these specially hand picked designs that kinda represented time piece fashion at least 30 years bag. These are some of the wrist watches my aunts rock during their teenage years.
Thin with small faces casio watches in leather stripes and we even spotted some automatic westar watches that looked like what my grand daddy would wear when he was a suave young man. Price were very reasonable and the watches were all authentic that comes with warranty. Service is friendly and well i sincerely hope they can carry more varieties. Love the price, love the designs and love the vintage feel that I had when i test wear one of their watches. Great stuffs :)

If you like exotic items in your living area or unique handmade accessories, otherwise eco-friendly stationary to jot down bits of life then you must get something from the TREASURES OF NEPAL .
Like the name suggest, they carry a good range of treasures from nepal and mostly eco friendly and environmentally loving. Keepa, a Nepalese and owner of this business hand picked all of these beautiful items, mostly from the hands of the maker themselves. Yes handmade they mostly are and materials used were Yak Bones from their daily meat domestic meals for beautiful and carved and polished accessories in various colours and design.
Note books and other paper products like lamp shades with intriguing designs were made mostly of the pulp of an ever growing shrub that is abundant in the high mountain and other lovely treasures such as crafted wooden boxes that contained some special holistic incense that is sure to calm every nerve and make you feel relaxed.
We were intrigued by her selections and her items were definitely unique, most of all for a good cause to support the villages back at this laid back country. So we contribute to eco friendly earthly measures, the villages back in Nepal and to our rustic fashion sense. Its a win win win... Guess I can pick a few more items to stock up for birthdays :)
AWESOME!!!

Its a good deal at $1.60 per plate. Yes you heard me right and yes I had quite a bad experience especially at the Cathay outlet yet this outlet at Yew Tee Point made my finger cramped up with the THUMBS UP!
The salmon sashimi was generous in slices. Usually 3 slices but were pretty thick and juicy. The california maki rolls were stuffed with yummy fillings, seaweed crispy and ingredients used fresh. Service was good and homely and we the moment we sat down we couldn't help but whacked a few plates of these superb sashimi.
If you love lobster salad like I do, then you will fall in love with their lobster salad gunkan. The belt moved pretty fast and was filled with plates after plates of well portioned makis, gunkan and sashimi. Even the pickled ginger was super yummy. It was an extremely good experience with plenty of choices.
The portion was really good and worth the money on top of that, you get to select from the IPAD mini other stuffs that is not on the belt. The seats were clean and service was prompt and friendly. Seats were in the form of booths and we were served into a 4 seater booth during lunch hours when there was only 2 of us. It was an excellent experience and we are sure to go back. Everything was good and the food was just too fantabulous *SLURP!* SUPER DUPER affordable..
you made mine day!!!

A little shop with many surprises. Hand picked and curated by the owner of the shop herself, I was pretty amazed by the items i found from her little collection.
The thing that caught my eye was the 'FROZEN' themed hair clips. Unlike the usual I've seen, the prints were less complicated in pretty baby colours. Toddlers clothes were so cute, i wish i had a baby of age to be dressed in. Service was good and with much jolly laughters. Love the apparels and accessories that goes with them.
Exquisite collection in great materials and beautiful clean looking designs. Love the simplicity, love the passion and love the great smiles.

I can't help it, I was shocked and disappointed. Why wasn't it like before?
Parklane Zha Yun Tun mee house is one time so famous for its deep fried Meat dumplings that we had to queue for hours to get a seat during lunch time. I thought it was still so however the queue had thinned down pretty much.
So while we wonder in and grabbed ourselves a lavish 4 seater, we secretly giggled at our good luck and not being chided by the staff. The items on the menu were plentiful and we ordered chicken feat noodles and my favourite porkchop rice.
Amidst the staff shouting orders in authentic china mandarin at one another and shuffling around, its obvious the number of staffs is just crowding up the small shop yet space was so precious that we almost had to seat down back to back.
Our food arrived in a short while and the zha yun tun did not taste as surprisingly nice as always did. This time round, too floury, oily and burnt with little filling. I was pretty disappointed. The chicken leg noodle arrived with the noodles pretty acceptingly well-done and braised chicken leg cooked but not soft. My pork chop rice was a downer... its just a super thin slice of pale pork, overcooked hard on plenty of white rice with a little braised sauce. I was devastated, blaming myself for the obvious wrong choice of cafe and wrong choice of food.
While i cursed away, i still tried to finish up my food as this is not exactly cheap to just walk away. So the meal ended with me being too emo! Perhaps i just did not choose the yummy stuffs and I find it too EX!!!

If you are looking for excellent, made with non synthetic ingredients that is gentle to your skin, than these passionately handcrafted skincare are just what you need to fight the polluted air of city living.
We were surprised to find such excellently created merchandises on sale at the Mega Flea 11 and was even more thrilled to hear the story of how the idea of whipping up a wholesome and nourishing range of skin protecting creams and lotions came about. It is the desire of one who seemed to have never-ending sensitivity problems with off the rack skin care products that turned frustration into creativity energy and the determination to bring to her friends ultimately good, natural and organic skin nourishing products.
Our favourite, would have to be the scrubs which we didn't manage to try as it might get a little too messy, however the ingredients were fabulous. Natural sugar with grapeseed oil and we even spotted elderberry extracts. Elderberry extracts are one of the rare and expensive ingredients used in skin care products yet its extremely good towards inflammation and we loved the fact that we found it in the scrub that would mean it could go deep underneath those inflamed scabs and treat wounds naturally.
The texture for the body butter is silky smooth with a good dose of shea butter with no water added. Nourishing yet not sticky and slithered on with a light fragrance. We also enjoyed the body lotions and the hand cremes, they are not highly perfumed yet the natural smell of the oils used were pretty pleasant and humbling.
They were priced extremely economically as compared to products on par and had a shelf life of 1 year which is pretty good for a non-synthetic product. We loved the packaging and the passion involved in creation. Lovely range and we hope to see more.
Such products are hardly found anywhere unless you make it yourself.

The Mega Flea series of tradeshow bazaars seemed always to surprise me. It amazes me because what seemed like a repeat of a similar event could have such interesting vendors all the time and merchandises so varied that I was excited because i found some really interesting stuffs.
Location, Environment & Atmosphere
Well, the atmosphere was one that is laced with excitement, while coming up from the escalators, you could already spot signs leading you to the flea and as you approach the entrance, be greeted by some partners with booths and contest. Be a winner before you actually enter the flea hall. Globby's instagram contest was one that was fun while you could take a pic with the cute props with the Mapwerkz team at the Gumtree background while enjoying a yummy cup of ice cream with compliments from Gumtree.
The hall was well air-circulated and tables neatly arranged in columns with ample spaces at each lane for shoppers to crowd and move around. The entire atmosphere was filled with excitement, while you could hear one vendor explaining their merchandises and another customer asking for a discount. Haggling and laughters was pretty ample here and vendors were relaxed even when the crowd builds to a traffic jam around some booths.
Merchandises and Vendors
I was really surprised to meet a few really interesting booths and as I do not want the review to sound like my grandfather's bedtime story, I would keep my lengthy descriptions to the #TMFM11 Post event article..
I found these exceptionally good handmade skincare products (Passionately Handcrafted) which is made of extremely good ingredients such as a concoction of natural oils (eg. grapeseed) and for the scrub i found elderberry extract which is a pretty rare ingredient to be used and somewhat an expensive one. Another booth across the hall promoted to me handmade soap from Ipoh with a history of more than 3 generations (Sabunim) that are made with pure coconut oil and can laterally rejuvenate your skin. The power of pure coconut oil is simply amazing and friendly to sensitive skin.
(The dorsal effect) is another interesting booth. Passionate with a clear and concise goal in mind, the team offers eco-tours to the island Lombok, off Bali, Indonesia, offering business to laid back fishermans so that they do not need to kill endangered sharks just to make ends meet.
(ISported) a newly designed app also made their debut at this flea, offering free downloads with wristbands for your favourite world cup teams. The app is intelligent enough to tell you where you can go nearby, be it a pub or McDonalds to watch football leagues without causing a fight at home.
Preloved Stores
Fashion has always been a big hit for fleas but this time round I spotted more preloved booths with eager and friendly, trendily dressed ladies selling their preloved fashionable stuffs. Love their vibe and the easy going attitudes. What more, i found not only clothes and beautiful dresses and accessories, books and household items were also selling off fast. One such booth is made up of intelligent team of Malay family when their items were lovely and well organised, they even brought along a mic and speaker to boost their presence. Love the teamwork and the fun element they brought to the flea.
It was extremely enjoyable and out of so many fleas, this one got me into the buying mood and most items that I got were such good bargain, i was practically holding on to me cheesy grin the whole time i was shopping. Featuring many trendy and useful stuffs.. this is one of those memorable fleas for me and of course more stuffs to give away to make way for even more beautiful stuffs... LOVED THE EXPERIENCE and WILL COME BACK FOR MORE!
