happy national day *the ratzmatazz*

and so it was; waking up at 10am to pass the red tie to senior william who needed it urgently at tampines mrt station. took a bus 10 down not realising the air con wasn't exactly working, so i sorta perspired like a sauna. yea- that bad. alighted at concourse, took a 16 to somerset to meet vs4b classmates. really excited to see them after such a long period of time. [ then again come to think of it, last time i saw them was in may. is that long? ] so anyway, i was an hour early. so i went window shopping at wisma and heeren before meeting them to catch Wedding Crashers.

the movie aside first, lemme run through my day.

after the movie, went walking around at taka, not doing anything much but just eating like swines. hahah. i had an auntie anne's pretzel. [damn, that sounded pretty wrong. but hey- where were we?] then went to centrepoint to have dinner; rey and i at the starhub centre foodcourt, while kh, elias and bryan went macs. they da bao, while rey and i had it there and then. proceeded to raffles city to watch the fireworks. real cool this year. ended off with a real big bang! love fireworks! hahah. the glamour and the glitz [ can be used vice versa right? ] was really quite spectacular. but knowing me, i always feel that no matter how good people may say, there are always improvements to be made. i'll jsut list them out yea?


1. why not have speakers/ amplifiers along the streets so that others [ who are unfortunately deprived of a seat; like me ] can enjoy the music. i mean suntec city has a convenient television placed strategically along the roads so that people can view the live telecast. what's the point of having pictures but no sound? besides, if there were speakers and amplifiers i feel more Singaporeans can sing the national anthem together. don't gimme the crap that we won't sing it > who knows? nobody experimented. during the fireworks display, there were a few foreigners around me. they watched the display without much content and satisfaction, probably cause they saw something similar or even better displays in their homeland? wat could probably make the difference - making SIngapore with the X-factor - i wonder.


2. i was just wondering if it was ever possible to have the Singapore Airlines/ SilkAir plane to do a aerial display too. not that sorta fly in a circle stunts, but just simple flying across. i mean its been a bore to see the same old things over and over again be it on land or in the sky, something different could change the atmosphere yea? like instead of the chinook carrying the flag, why can't our national airline carry it? just a possibility. yeah.


and so we have it. now back to my day. after the display, wanted to play pool at hotel meridian? but walked in the opposite direction towards bugis. woah! big difference eh? hahah. so we ended up in parco not accomplishing a lot. but hey- bryan got a litle sick, so bro: if you're reading this, hope you're alright by now? :)


we now return to the movie.

quite a funny show actually. but revolting to know that people actually laugh when they remember the scenes. not that its wrong to recall scenes, but to laugh at that sort of content... well it speaks a lot of how society has changed from a predominantly conservative one to a bold experimental and adventurous one. story was cliche, but nonetheless heartwarming [ a bit lahx ]. but true love is when the lives of 2 people meet at a juncture where their souls intertwine and become as one unit. that's wat i learnt. be yourself. that's probably one of the greatest gifts you can give to your partner, other than your unconditional love care and concern. yea.but crashing weddings to get girls?

get a life.
