Happy Birthday SINGAPORE!!!

Singapore is 42 year old this year!!!
So we should celebrate its birthday

went to the Esplanade to watch the ndp from a distance
so cool i could see the floating platform from where i was standing
and it feels like i was so near the stage

anyway i went there at 2pm with my family to watch this performance in the Esplanade
it was by the handbell ensemble in Haig Girls’ School
and they were so cute

like this little girl who is like barely the height of the table trying to play a C4 bell
with 2 hands
and she looked really cute
and there was this interactive session with the audience
guess who i saw
Mrs Anis
and her family
which is her daughters and her husband
and apparently her eldest daughter is in the ringers in Haig Girls’ School
so cool right!

anyway then we went to “chope” a seat along the Singapore River
fully displaying the ‘kiasu-ness’ of Singaporeans
and there were already a lot of people
so we had to sit on the floor
and while i played with my cube
and i solved it
we waited for a loooonnnggg time before these 2 aunties came
then everybody wa so kiasu then everybody stood up
so we decided to pack since it wouldnt be long before our belongings[on the floor]
will be stomped on

aiyah then we stood for a long long time
thankfully it wasnt long before the parade started
hey and i took many pictures
175 to be exact
and 2 videos of the fireworks
since i decided taking photos will be fruitless
and i feel to clever to be predicting that there will be a finale of the fireworks
after the 5 min fireworks
yayy so i got my cam ready and sure enough
there was a shower of fireworks
oh im so pro
and when the fireworks were in the beautiful night sky
those below [aka me]
were showered with…
firework rubbish
like the rope
and the outer coverings of the fireworks
urgh.
well its a price to pay for the fireworks

pics!!

parachuter

the new stage

the nicest pic i got the whole evening
i got it when i was trying to take a pic of the flag flying above our heads
then there was this guy prompting my dad to take it against the city centre
apparently my dad didnt hear it
but with my super sharp ears, i swerved my cam around
and got this pic
and i copyrighted it
HAH so there

the lighted balloon that was supposed to look like a jellyfish
hey its not my fault that the ndp wants to emphasise on sea creatures
and the jellyfish [according to my mum]
looked like dementors
O.o
please larh

show off

the city skyline and night scene actually looks good

next time

-grins-

who doesnt love a dose of harry potter

today is…

Happy RotterHarry Potter day!!

isnt its fun! [so random xD]

anyway my craving for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows wasnt satisfied even though popular started selling them early in the morning at 7.01 am but my mum reckons that the queue will be super long thus the delay in my aquiring of the PRIZED BOOK

haha so i went to Chinatown + telok ayer street to:

take photos for history pt. bleh. anyway i spent a freaking long time to finish taking pictures of all the stuff there and im super kiasu and i took pictures of every attractions though im positive that i wont be able to fit even 10% of them in the pt report/product itself. anyway my mum bought the ang ku kueh and whatnots from a supposedly famous shop which my mum used to go when she worked on telok ayer street.

haha and it satisfied my cravings for ang ku kueh since… last week i think. plus its peanut flavoured. yumm. i devoured it in the carpark. O.o

then we went to shop in chinatown.

so then we finally went to popular to collect the book. and all the rumours etc about the spacing is super big is FALSE because my book is 600-odd pages, not 700 ++. and im trying to use standard english [aka no less abbrevations]

and the rest of the time is spent reading the book. and i think so far its pretty good… i flipped to the back of the book when i got it and read the ending. [in spite of my mum's frantic objections about how to enjoy the process of reading ......]

i feel kind of guilty for spending time on the book because of the homework we have this week– history fa, geog fa, english fa, lit fa, chinese comprehension practice, history pt, chinese 阅读报告, math worksheet– that sucks, a lot.

i shall read the book anyway.
