The first time I
Denise Tan is a radio host, shoe lover, foodie and theater doyen.
Her roles in local theater such as Mollie/Moses in "Animal Farm,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," Vicky in "The Full Monty,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," and Choo Bee Lean in "Fried Rice Paradise" have secured her position as one of Singapore's best-loved thespians.
Other reasons: You won't just get cheap shoes at Far East Plaza. This building is chock-a-block with all sorts of street fashion,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the ever-popular 77th Street (#03-105/106) for skater- and Lolita-styled clothes, while Zha Huo Dian (#03-16) stocks kitschy oddities such as Lomo cameras,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], vintage plastic watches and other knickknacks.
…got down and dirty
"It was late evening. I was training to climb Mount Kinabalu and decided to hike through the jungle trails of Bukit Timah Nature Reserve. Unfortunately,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], quarter-ways up,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], I got caught in the biggest thunderstorm -- we're talking crashing branches and rivers of water! I had to take shelter at the opening of a cave for the worst to be over, I lost the soles of my shoes to the mud and gravel,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], which means I was hiking in my socks! By the time I got off the hill,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], I was undoubtedly down, dirty,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and wet!"
Where: Bukit Timah Nature Reserve (177 Hindhede Drive, tel +65 6471 7361)
Other reasons: Bukit Timah Nature Reserve sees plenty of action every weekend from avid hikers. It's a little knoll of undisturbed forest with more than 840 plants and 500 species of animals. If you're game for a longer walk,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], folks have hiked the entire 15 km from there to the MacRitchie Reservoir.
…did something for the last time
"For a dare,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], I drank a cupful of lizard Chinese wine. As in Chinese wine that had whole,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], slimy,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], lizards floating in it. I'm terrified of lizards -- even your garden variety house geckos and these lizards flavouring the wine were big, black and white ones, complete with scales,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], claws,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], teeth and all! I drank the wine, but never again!"
Where: Smith Street,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Chinatown
Other reasons: The busy heart of Chinatown with many businesses run by mainland Chinese. Chinese nationals swear by Hometown restaurant for Sichuan food and Chinese wine. But if that's not your tipple,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the area has many other remnants of old Singapore.
…said something naughty on air
"As in, 'I feel like saying something naughty right now,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but I won't -- not on national radio!'" [laughs]
Where: MediaCorp Radio's Gold 90FM Studio
Other thoughts: Easy-listening pop in Mandarin, Tamil, English and Malay rule the airwaves. MediaCorp has a monopoly on Singapore's radio stations, although there are several independent stations such as BBC Radio,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Safra Radio and SPH Unionworks.
…heard something that made me cry
"As a primary school student,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], seeing the spectacle of the National Day parade and hearing thousands of people reciting the pledge all at once."
What: National Day Parade (9 August)
Other reasons: The National Day Parade is Singapore's celebration of independence. Over the years it has evolved into a somewhat kitschy rock concert and it's truly something that will bring a tear to your eye when it's time to say the pledge. Tickets are free but they're only available via a balloting system.
