Nostalgia at Queenstown Library and Queenstown Bowl
There are a lot of places around Singapore that hold lots of memories for Singaporeans. These places hold their childhood memories, memories of them having a great time and memories with their familes. As Singapore starts to grow in a rapid pace, more and more old places are starting to disappear. Thankfully, there are certain old places in Singapore that are still in existence right now so it's still not too late to check them out. However, we may never know if these buildings will still be available in the next few decades so we must try to appreciate these kind of places as much as we can right now. In this article, I will be talking about my trip to one of the oldest estates in Singapore, Queenstown. Specifically, I will be checking out the historical Queenstown Library and the abandoned Queenstown Bowl entertainment centre. Scroll down to find out more about these two amazing places.

Where do you go if you want to discover new and amazing talents from Singapore and worldwide? The Mosaic Music Festival can help you with that. Mosaic Music Festival is a music festival whereby independent artistes and musicians from all around the world come to the Esplanade to perform. The festival is of course held at the Esplanade Theatres and it usually runs for about 10 days in the month of March. There are some paid performances which you can attend by getting the tickets from the Esplanade Box Office. Otherwise, if you want to save a little bit of money, you can watch the free performances which are held in the Concourse, the Outdoor Theatre and the Esplanade Library.

100 Posts and Counting!
Wow, it's been a while since I last wrote a post here on Frenzeelo thanks to the amount of work that I receive in school. Although I may be busy at times, I will still try my best to make time to write my posts every week just for you.
As you can see from the title and the picture above, this is my 100th post. Yes, you read that right, 100th post. Since January 2012 all the way to now, Frenzeelo is still going strong despite me stopping my other blogs after just a few months of writing. This has been a great milestone for Frenzeelo and for me and I did not expect that this blog will still be alive. Loyal readers and newcomers always encourage me to write my posts and to continue this blog. There will be times whereby I don't even feel like writing at all. But, for the sake of my readers, I will try my best to write something for all of you. Oh and don't worry, this June, I will be back to writing more great content and I will be back to producing more episodes of Frenzeelo TV.
Once again, thank you so much to all the loyal readers of Frenzeelo and even the newcomers for supporting my blog, Frenzeelo. I promise you, I will continue to create great content for years to come. Hopefully, I will still be able to celebrate the 200th post. Cheers!

Awesome Town Centres Part 4: Bukit Merah Town Centre
Remember my past three posts about the various town centres around Singapore? It's called the Awesome Town Centres series and I have written about Ang Mo Kio Town Centre, Toa Payoh Town Centre and Hougang Central Town Centre.

In today's article, I will continue the series by writing about Bukit Merah Town Centre. Bukit Merah Town Centre is a quiet HDB town centre with lots of high rise and low rise flats which features all the great things like hawker centres, small mom and pop shops, a library and so much more just like other town centres. However, there are some things that make Bukit Merah Town Centre different from all the other town centres out there. Want to find out more? Scroll down or click Read More right now.

BBQ Chicken @ Tampines 1 (Closed)
Chicken seems to be the most popular meat in Singapore. There are so many ways to prepare chicken. You can stir fry, grill, barbecue, steam, bake and the most popular of them all, deep fry. If you love chicken, BBQ Chicken is the place to go for your love of chicken. Before I start my review, let me talk to you more about the restaurant. BBQ Chicken is a chain of casual restaurants that specialises in chicken and it originates from South Korea. There are a wide variety of chicken dishes available here such as fried chicken, pasta with chicken, fried rice with chicken and so much more. In this article, I will be showing you my experience at BBQ Chicken at Tampines 1, a neighbourhood mall located directly beside Tampines MRT Station.

Botak's Favorites @ 5 Changi Village Road
The majority of Singaporeans surely have heard of this chain of coffeeshop stalls called Botak Jones. Botak Jones sells American fare such as steaks, cutlets, Fish and Chips, burgers and so much more and it has become so famous that they have outlets found almost everywhere in Singapore. If a business like that succeeds, what do they usually do? They expand. As of writing, Botak Jones expanded and created other businesses such as Botak's Favorites and Great Big Food. The former is the Halal version of Botak Jones, suitable for Muslims, while the latter is a catering company that usually serves American fare just like its other businesses. For today's article, I will be concentrating on Botak's Favorites, a Halal version of Botak Jones like what I have mentioned earlier. Read on further to find out more about all the mouthwatering food that I have ordered during my visit.

Sengkang Riverside Park and Punggol Waterway Park - Frenzeelo TV Ep. 5
If you live in the north east part of Singapore, especially Sengkang and Punggol, you are lucky to have these 2 great public parks. These 2 public parks are Sengkang Riverside Park and Punggol Waterway Park respectively. The Sengkang Riverside Park is a park located just right beside Sungei Punggol (which explains the name) while the Punggol Waterway Park is located beside a man made waterway in Punggol West.
In the first part of the episode, I talked about the Sengkang Riverside Park. The Sengkang Riverside Park has a lot of interesting facilities and amenities such as the Sengkang Floating Island, which consists of street furniture made to resemble oranges and a giant mangosteen along with some wetland. Other than that, the Sengkang Riverside Park also has plenty of open field for kite enthusiasts who want to fly their kites and jogging tracks for joggers who want to jog with a great view.
In the second part, I discussed about the Punggol Waterway Park. The Punggol Waterway Park is a park with a man made waterway in the middle and it's also part of an ambitious public housing project. There are cycling tracks all over the park, a water play area appropriate for young children along with several uniquely-looking bridges that allow you to cross over the waterway easily and safely. It's also a great park for those who just want to relax and take a breather.
Stop waiting and click the Play button immediately in the video right above. Hope you enjoy the latest episode of Frenzeelo TV and don't forget to check out the previous episodes such as the episode on the Singapore City Gallery and Gardens By The Bay. Also, do not forget to subscribe to the paperfrenzy YouTube channel for the latest episodes of Frenzeelo TV, the best of Singapore on video.

HSBC Treetop Walk in MacRitchie Reservoir
The MacRitchie Reservoir is full of wonders. There are forests, walking trails and lots of nature to be explored around here. You may recall that I have written about the MacRitchie Reservoir earlier on last year which you can find out more here. However, in that post, it was missing something. That 'something' is the HSBC Treetop Walk, a suspension bridge that overlooks the MacRitchie forests and it's also a place for researchers to do their research due to the difficulties of accessing the forests. Want to find out more and see what the HSBC Treetop Walk has to offer? Find out more below.
