Exploring Iluma

Posted in: Daily Life, Website

Thanks to everyone who voted for me at the WordPress Best Design Awards, your votes are very much appreciated. If you haven’t, please drop me a vote if you like Amour Chaleur’s design and help spread the word around (twittering, blogging about it, anything!). :) Every single vote would help to make my goal of opening my own e-shop closer as mentioned in my previous post. :love:

I’ve been busy mugging1 for my upcoming final UOL examinations so I wouldn’t be very active until the end of May but I’ll still be on twitter and flickr. Sorry if I haven’t been visiting for some time. :( I have huge plans for Amour Chaleur in June. I will be making a new layout and will try to “pull away” from the current style. I want a new break through in my layout designs! :D I also plan to revamp 60% of the content – higher quality and quantity (in regards to my visitors content). Hopefully, I will be able to finish it during the first 2 weeks of June before moving on to my client’s project and other side projects like my e-shop. :kiss:

So, Chewy and I went to “explore” Iluma, the new shopping mall located at Bugis. If you have been following my twitter, you would have known that there were some small hiccups along the way. :( Nevertheless, we made it safe and sound home. The shopping mall is open but most of the shops aren’t, thus if you plan on going, wait till June when most of the shops would be open. The cinema and the arcade fills up the entire top floor and there is this “secret” rooftop area. It overlooks Bugis and the entrance is hidden inside the arcade so do remember to check it out when you are there. :) But some people take it as a smoking area and it totally spoils the view. I meant with a wonderful view but the air is filled with cigarette smoke. :down:

I’m mentally exhausted so I’ll let the photos do the talking again today. :cool: They are cross posted from my flickr so you can click on them to view the full size photo from my flick account.

        Hahaha, yep. I’d be invigilating. (; My timeslots are few and far between though, so the chances of us bumping into each other may be rare.

        All the best in your studying! Good luck for the upcoming exams! ;)
