Last weekend, I walked into a Lego shop at Takashimaya to look for a present, with absolutely no interest in what I always thought were “boys’ toys”. Instead I was completely charmed.
Now I need to go to Legoland!!!

They made the people from bricks too! Not those with features painted on yellow bulbs as heads!
Barack Obama in Lego. WOW!
After my research online, I decided I want to build my own city, and thanks to the Twitteers who gave me a list of shops to go to in Singapore, I found one of the sets that would make the city.
Ta-da...my very first second set of Lego! (P.S. I had one set in childhood)
Huge box, small packets!
If you want to chart my progress, and see which are the two sets that I’ve ordered and are currently on their way, remember to follow me on Twitter for the latest updates!
Meanwhile, check out the remaining sets I’m waiting to get my hands on, that will help me complete my city.

Look at what some others have done!
This was built by Ralph Savelsberg.
See the remaining town he built.

There are countless talented Lego builders on the Internet. If you’re keen to see the evolution of Lego Police stations, you can check out Joshua’s blog.
As for me, I think his evolution is not quite complete, because he left out the Space Police collection.
Space Police Central
Lego really opens up a world of role play and possibilities!
If you’re a Lego Fan or if you know someone who’s really good at it, please share.
A Jolly Affair
