well last night I did something really really stupid and selfish.. I really didn't know what I was thinking... I just feel really really bad and stupid... I still do even now... you know who you are and I'm really very sorry again... pray for me pls...

Fireworks, Chinese Culture and City Hall
today I woke up abt 12pm... then slacked the whole day.. wanted to go swimming.. but the sun wasn't really there.. and I was lazy.. hahaha!! so I slacked around online, surfing net, reading blogs, chatting.. before leaving the house at 4pm to go over to meet my dad at his office to pick up the car.. =) After dropping him off at the MRT, proceeded down to pick Huimin up from her workplace for dinner... yep I was gonna go with her to River Hongbao 2003... before that had dinner at Swensen's over at Funan... she tried out the Longevity Snapper which was black pepper noodle with fried fish thing.. and I had the Prosperity Pineapple Rice which was pineapple rice with cheese, ham, sotong, oysters and crayfish... it was pretty bad.. I think Swensen's should stick to the Western cuisine man... and they had the lucky angbao thingy.. and we both got the Prawn Dippers for $2.80 coupon.. we thought it was free at first, but after careful reading it's actually pay $2.80 for the thing.. so we were like wah liao.. so cheapo and deceiving loh.. =P kekeke.. well I had a $20 voucher to finish, so I treated her to that loh.. hehe...

after that took a quick walk down to the River Hongbao where we managed to catch the fireworks!!! pretty short, but still very nice cos we were like almost under it.. i think anyway.. here's some pics...

yep then we walked around the place a bit.. some interesting artists, like dough-modelling of a person... others more boring like the act seh calligraphy person... also got introduced to the game of riddle-guessing.. hehe.. improve my sense of chinese culture a bit.. hahaha.. yeah then got to see some lion dance, dragon dance, stilt-walkers stunts, acrobatics and other stuff.. had some tea eggs as snacks too!! hehe... but the amusement area was a let-down.. cos have to pay to go in.. its $3.. i see the price only I dun want to go in liao... not that i'm cheapo or anything, but why pay to go see what I can ride??!! so irritating.. so we left the place about 920pm or so and took a walk along the river... found a stretch called the Queen Elizabeth Walk.. just down from Victoria Theatre, also very nice place... its a couples place lah mostly..

anyways we walked on until we settled down at the steps in front of City Hall building opposite the Padang and just talked... and I taught my first lesson in Drumming 101... hahaha... sounds so School of Rock right?! kekeke... go back and practise ah!!! yeah then close to 11 we decided to head back home...

OK I told Huimin I was gonna put this in my blog... so here it is!! I had parked my car at Funan, so we walked back then the whole building was closed!! So i was thinking ok maybe got some staircase open, but NO! apparently all the staircases all locked at 11pm!! then the shutters to the entrance of the carpark was also closed!!! I was thinking that's it man... hope my car not clamped or stuck in the carpark man!!! we walked around the front of the building, can't find any place to enter... in the end walked about one round around the building and saw the exit... with the shutters open!!! so we managed to get to my car from there... and the machine was still working so I wasn't stuck in the building!!! yeah!!! lesson learnt: dun park in funan at night... hahaha!! esp if u gonna leave ur car in there after 10pm...

yep managed to get out and then sent Huimin back home before I came back... =) tom I will slack!!! hahhaha... only got reunion dinner in the evening at my uncle's place on my dad's side... but probably have to spend the afternoon tidying up the room and changing bedsheets.. hehehe.. till tomorrow.. which is actually today.. gdnite!!!

i wrote this at 135am...
