Singapore is boring. That's what every Singaporean would've thought at least once in your life. That's why you love travelling out of the country. You get to feel pampered, experience new things and see new sights. But hey, if you're feeling that way, it's not because Singapore's genuinely boring. You've just not been paying enough attention to what's happening on this sunny island. Don't worry. That's what you have us for. Goody Feed's here to tell you about what's going on in Singapore and where to go on weekends to make the best use of your rest time. And oh boy, do we have something exciting to tell you. Marina Barrage's 10th Year Anniversary Everyone knows Marina Barrage, right? That's the place you go to for picnics and kite-flying, or just to catch the sunset with the beautiful cityscape arrayed before your eyes. Image: IamDoctorEgg / Shutterstock.com Well, now you have one more (compelling) reason to go to Marina Barrage this weekend.
