Got 2 tickets for preview on last sat from my colleague. Just nice, Nick finished his re-service on sat noon. We went to Bugis to see the tallest wedding cake done by Intercontinnal Hotel. Design is classic but not really that fantastic as what Straits Times describe.
The ticket stated 4.00pm for entry, we thought it would be too early and it was drizzling. We decided to go for early dinner, sick for 1 week, I really need some nice food for my taste buds. I told Nick I wanted Tony Romas, he said try somthing else, I was wondering why cannot have Tony Romas??? In the end we settled at Pasta Mania in Bugis and the food is really disappointing. Nick is complaining all the way throughout the dinner. I "suan" him, " tell u go eat chicken loh, u dun want". Then he replied, " Tony Romas got chicken meh". Then I said, "ya, the set meal lar, and I am craving for the cheese marconise" Then I realised I said the wrong name! It should be Kenny Ronger!!! Nick say if I had said Kenny Roger in the 1st place, we would have went there. Too bad. I think I must have been sick until blur....
After the early dinner, we walked over to Marina Bay at about 5pm. Lots of school children in pink plastic raincoat and lots of "red ants"....we were not dressed in red, cant find a red top... at least I am in purple, closer to red. Nick is in blue, worse, seems like opposite of red. Hahaha...
There is a lot of moblie toilet outside Marina Bay, and trust me, its the cleanest and smell free public moblie toliet I have ever used. Maybe because I am the 1st few to use ba....hahhaha....
We choose our goodies bag and I took a red one (to camouflage mar) and Nick took a blue one. Lots of stuffs like tonns of tibittes in the bag! And NEW WATER which Nick die die refuse to drink....Hahahha...
A lot of "stimulated" guest of honour and program. The "stimulated" MPs, MM, even dressed in white shirt and pants, carrying the nametag and wave hand to the audiences!!! Hahaha.... The most exciting part should be the "Arpachi" plane, the big big Singapore flag, the super fast airplane and the para-shoot jumper. This year is NS40 so they have big tanks coming into the scene with comandos dressed smartly to display their "cool" pose in walkway of the audience stand. We cant really see the mass display cos too near the stage. The fireworks is also quite disappointing. Maybe because we have seen nicer one during New Year celebration and firework festivals.
