Dc super hero philatelic museum // weekend
Was waiting to find a time sift out all the photos in my camera and start posting for this random museum trip on my weekend date with BF. I have never done any research on this it and we were just randomly walking past this streets after my brunch with my classmates.
Our initial plan was to head down to COMEX IT show to take a look at the electronics gadget but don't know somehow why we ended up in a museum. Its free admission for all Singaporean, simply show them your IC card and you will be entitled for this special price. Foreigners will be charged at $6 per entry. So its great to be SINGAPOREAN!
Since we have past by, we decided to enter in and take a look as I haven't been to a museum for long. Like who will ever want to date in the museum? People would rather go for movies/ shopping or meals.
But typically, FOC was another reason why we entered in too! #kiasusingaporean
There are different rooms for us to exhibit, each room resembled a theme of a Chinese culture, the man who worked hard for Singapore, the historical stories of our little red dot. Although im there to TAKE PHOTOS, I still read up some of the history background to build up my knowledge (although its so brain-draining to read everything!)
One good thing about museum is everywhere are so worth photo-taking even the white wall are good for backdrop, Hahaha. So basically, BF and I stopped everywhere to have our daily posing.
Those Peranakan (nyonya) outfit is so beautiful! I would like to own one provided they have my size. I can never fit in Chinese Qi Pao because they always slim fitting and slim fit doesn't suit me because of my pear body-shaped. How I wish to have a hour-glass shaped?
I found an area to play around. Remember those times when your ancestor wears chinese clogs? I tried them on and tried walking around, making a fool out of myself. I do walk like a penguin. Now I can understand why my grand-mum has smaller feet and toes. Definitely not easy to walk as you have to clench your toes tightly.
Does this look like a real provision shop? Sorry for the unglamness, trying to look like a MAFIA tendering the shop! Like giving you a "WHAT'S UP DUDE, ANY CIGARETTE FOR YOU?"
The next room that we went in was a room of old post box. From 1970-2014, you can see many changes of how our post box looks like! In the past, they relied on pigeons to send out mails and drop into a small box which was placed outside the window. After which were the more advance like the one standing tall at the roadside. So what about now? Our current letterbox found in the void deck.
Next to the wet market along the streets. The buy 1 get 1 free for you MADAM/ SIR?
That tin holder for them to put in all the cash, isn't it soooo attractive?
We went in to a room full of all the ancient stamps. From sweet smelling stamps to chocolate to 3D to hologram to superman to glow in the dark! There are way many stamps for us to view it. Although im not a fan of collecting old stamps but it is really a suitable place for people who enjoys collecting old stamps just like Aunty Jo.
By using my physic power, I can stop a scooter. HAHAHA.
Just saying!
Simpson's stamp is also available here. You may want to check with the cashier if you are keen of buying it.
Finally after roaming around the rooms, we went to the most high-lighted focus for this post. The DC super hero musuem!!!
The League Against Evil: A DC Super Heroes Exhibition is now on till 31 August 2014 at the Singapore Philatelic Museum. This exhibition is held in conjunction with Warner Bros.' celebration of the 75th anniversary of DC Comics Super Hero, BATMAN.
Check out my macho part-time boyfriend! Such a big fan of superman!
Oh, he has a part time girlfriend too (: Not jealous at all!
Anyway, this is the first and only DC Comics Super Heroes exhibition in Asia, and it’s to celebrate Batman’s 75th anniversary. Yup, I didn’t know that Batman was 75 years old already. It’s quite interesting to see changes to Batman over the years, especially the evolution of the iconic logo. He looks more modern, but I personally like the old hero with the blue cape.
One also get to see the different series of the Batmobile and figurines of the super heroes and super villians.
And if you look hard enough, you can also learn the history and origins of DC Comics and the "World's Greatest Super Heroes" - SUPERMAN, BATMAN and WONDER WOMAN, and the JUSTICE LEAGUE OF AMERICA from the exhibits.
Can't believe we stayed in the museum for 3 hours playing around, posing for funny pose. Time spent with you is never enough even if god gives me 24 hrs. Overall, so glad to be able to spend my weekend with you always. Awaiting patiently for every weekend to arrive.
<3 to my boyfriend (:
Till then.
