budget of S$1,500 is good enough to get you around looking for a job.. P33.50 = S$1 forex,
daily allowance to get around cities ~ S$50, parang P300 dito sa tin un..
mcdo meal ala bigmac ~ US$10,
cheapest meal (1 rice + chicken) S$2,
orig. sony psp3000 ~ S$250,
mrt ~ S$1.5 shortest, S$5 farthest.. up to airport.. one way...
(yes, mrt lang hanggang airport, di pa ako nainitan nun)
taxi ~ S$10 far enough to other side of singapore..
bus ~ a few times lang, but not recommended kasi me route na sinusunod,
minsan kung saan pa iikot, eh kabilang kalye lang pala, bilis pa lakad,
so kami, lakad kung malapit, taxi kung mejo malayo, mrt kung ibang city or province na...
anywhere there parang walking around ortigas center, and around greenbelt,
pinoys are usually identified with indonesians... (mas decente naman tau manamit sa kanila..)
mas tipid kung makitira ka muna sa isang kamag-anak, kapamiilya o friend.
i did, and shared S$30 every week for water, food, and electricity.. slept on the sofa..
mas mura sa ibang province, (sembawang, ang mo kio) and mahal sa main city...
sa novena city, dun nagsisimba karamihan ng pinoy, news is wishes come true doon if you pray hard enough,
sa geylang, china town at orchard naman ay red district pag gabi...
orchard mall is where most pinoys do remittance, get salon, at most of what pinoys do here rin...
marami na rin pinoy restaurant doon at pinoy grocery where you can find ligo sardines, cheese spread, bagoong, adobong pinoy, pakbet, bibingka, etc...
at best doon, sentosa island's universal studios at marami pang theme parks & beach doon...
nga pala,
hindi uso house blessing sa kanila, kaya ji-no-joke nila ako kung me nararamdaman daw me kakaiba pag gabi... wala naman so far..
ingat din kayo sa mga tinderong bumbay, bangladesh o indonesian kasi ung iba marunong maka intindi ng tagalog, at nang gugulang pa pag bumibili ka...
