10 Important Birthdays In Singapore’s Timeline

As today is the birthday of the undeniably vivacious but yet demure Yours Truly, a fabulous idea was born of Yours Truly’s mind. Why not a list of birthdays of the important and pivotal figures and events in Singapore’s history?

So what is exactly a birthday? Merriam-Webster defines it as,

1 a : the day of a person’s birth
1 b : a day of origin
2 : an anniversary of a birth

Well yes yes quite frankly a no brainer explanation. But you would be surprised that not everyone celebrates birthdays. In fact there are a couple of religious beliefs that oppose to having birthdays celebrated!

Anyway this is not about them. This is about important birthdays in Singapore history. And that is why Yours Truly had scoured through the dates in Singapore history during the last few visits to the museums and had personally handpicked out a list of birthdays that best exemplifies the nation’s flow of time.

10 Least Known Museums in Singapore

Singapore Museums

Contrary to popular misconceptions, the museum or more correctly the Musaeum in Alexandria, which was attached to the infamous Library, was not the first museum ever in the world. Generally the earliest museums were attributed to Plato though there was not enough evidence to substantiate the claim.

The word museum is derived from the Greek word Mouseion, which means a place of worship dedicated to the Muses, the Goddesses of the arts, science and literature.

But what does museum mean? Merriam-Webster defines it as,

“: an institution devoted to the procurement, care, study, and display of objects of lasting interest or value; also : a place where objects are exhibited”

There are many and all kinds of museums out there, from major collections generally in cities to smaller general collections or even smaller collections to a specific subject or person.

Unbelievably as it is, in Singapore itself, there are 51 museums spread all across the island! Yes… and so Yours Truly has taken the liberty of giving you a grand tour of the least known ones.

10 Ways To Propose… Singaporean Style

Marriage is simply a union between two people in love. Traditionally the word alludes to heterosexual couples, with most homosexual couples preferring the term partnership.

The earliest documented marital laws dated back to at least Mesopotamian times, and we can draw forth a conjecture that along with it the concept of a marriage proposal also evolved similarly.

But what is a proposal? Merriam-Webster defines a proposal as,

“2 a : something proposed : suggestion
b : offer; specifically : an offer of marriage”

Of course marriage proposals varies dramatically from culture to culture, ever changing along with the times. There are of course accepted traditional forms of proposal that changed very little in the course of the centuries within a specific culture.

Even a small nation like Singapore has its own unique flavour of marriage proposal styles. Being multi-racial and all, encompassing of other cultures and with our local idiosyncrasies, you would be surprised to learn just how much local flavour you can inject into a marriage proposal.
Here are some tips on how to enhance your proposal with the Singaporean flair.

10 Steps to Learn how to load iPhone Ringtones for Singaporean users

iphoneHave you been having difficulty trying to personalise your newly acquired iPhone with your own personal ring tone? If you have tried the Create ringtone… option in iTunes, it will simply tell you, “You can create iPhone ring tones only from Songs purchased from the iTune Store”. I cannot purchase music from iTune store because I have registered as a Singapore user. It seems that the only way to do it is to own an American iTunes account, purchase the song and convert it as a ringtone. Well, what puts me off is the word “Purchase”.

Allow me to show the readers of SGTOP10 on how you can load your own personalized ring tone to your iPhone.
