Before I forget..

Oops. It's been eons since i last blogged. Am simply too lazy to upload pics. Lol. Reckon its time to clear some backlog (:

JT the Martian's 22nd, celebrated on Planet Earth.

The cake says, "Happy Martian's Day".

And as usual, we have to do silly things together. Lol. I wonder what the others were thinking. Perhaps along the lines of "noisy-and-kinda-nonsensical bunch".

Malicious gossip session. Topics revisited the 1001353rd time, still as hilarious and memorable.

Jumping in the middle of nowhere.

I'm quite sure Zming practised this beforehand.

Finally we decided to call it a day night with a decent shot

JT being the only driver gentleman, drove us home. Let's just say it was quite a bumpy ride and we got worried for his car. Haha.

Ice-cream chef + ECP & Changi Beach cycling + Arcade = FUN!

Photobucket
Finally a chance to eat you. Muaha.

Had a great cycling trip with the girls. We cycled all the way to Changi Beach! Woots. We then settled down at ECP for some water fun. It was then I realised I have not thread the sand & water since.. JC days or earlier.

We stopped by the jetty and saw many fishing enthusiasts. Are there seriously fishes swimming along our beach? I really wonder. But the jetty had a lingering stale smell. Is it the bait or the fish?! Lol.

looking at ECP from a different perspective.

And in the evening, we went to this ulu arcade and played old-school games! Heh, we spent most of our tokens shooting Jurassic Park Dinosaurs..

A new hairstyle, thanks to Jeremy.

Photobucket

I love my short hair now! At first I was kinda apprehensive about having it bob-style, but I'm really happy with the results. Yayness! I just hope I'm able to maintain the hairstyle for long.

Jeremy pampers my hair with ZERO slipshod work. Lol.. Now I know why he's always fully booked. I love him! :D

Burnt in the hot weather

Photobucket
"Eeeeeeeeeee-haaaa!"

Event at the Playground was freaking hottttt. It's difficult to get me tan/sun-burnt (I didn't get tanned even while kayaking), until this event. -_-'' Now I'm finally paying attention to sun-block lotion ads. I hope it's not too late.

In the midst of preparing for a getaway, so let's hope it all works out well! :D

That's all for now, night world! :)

probably my last trip down Old National Stadium

i thought the national stadium would have been closed by april. to my surprise, my resourceful friend managed to get tickets to the syf band competition - held right at the national stadium.

i don't frequent the stadium, but this building definitely holds memories from as long as my primary school days. those days where school teachers led little boys and girls to the stadium to watch the national day prelude. with kfc as the official caterer.. and the little toys in the mini goodie bag. sadly, that is all i remember for my first and only national day celebration in the stadium.

or as we grow older and cheered/screamed for friends, or people we don't know personally.. and you realise everyone else is doing the same.

those days.

and now, i'm able to relive those moments of cheering.. thanks to my friend :)

of large banners and supporters

the atmosphere was all tensed up when it was finally time for the display band competition. the surprises, props, suave drum majors and dances! most of the bands even had performers all dressed up in flamboyant costumes to wow the audience.

my all-time favourite tk band - with an Oriental theme :)

Photobucket
notice the red square - that's the olden Chinese door gate. and they had "warriors" charging through it!

Photobucket
they even had dragon dance troops!

and this band - with a Mexican theme

another band -

the moment the bands have been waiting for

Photobucket

i love to see how the bands react when the results are announced. the emotion at that crux is genuine.

great performance, well done guys :)
