Nice date? Hmm...
I took pictures of the swinging chandeliers again. This time I took the other variations of their swinging - alternate swinging. I think there's another which all swing at the same time from left to right, rather than in a snakelike pattern, however I didn't wait for that variation to appear, cos I think it was taking too long!
Went for an SGX seminar with Edwin. Wah SGX Centre and its seminar rooms and everything else inside is so "class". All the monitors and computers in their trading rooms, the cafes, the lobby all damn chio. The seminar room ok lah normal. The speaker was someone named Tom. The way he presented no doubt catches everyone's attention. His words and gesture throughout the presentation was so captivating that even when Edwin and I had slept for only a few hours the night before also managed to stay awake. He gave us a rich insight into his 17 years of experience as a trader and also several words of wisdom. Truly a very enriching experience for us.
After that we went to have lunch at PS before we went to The Cathay with Jiahao to watch Red Cliff Part 2. Just as expected of any John Woo movies, there was plenty of action and explosions. However if I were to give Part 1 a 4-star rating, Part 2 would be a 3-star only. Much of the storyline were quite twisted from the history books. There were many additional (redundant) scenes which could jolly-well be deleted from this 142-mins long sequel. I still very much prefer Part 1, with all its battle scenes and plot.
After the movie, we went to 2902 Gallery to check out whether there would be any exhibitions. Alas, it's closed. So we walked around Old School and then went down the endless flight of stairs, wanting to go to the National Museum of Singapore just to sightsee. And zhunzhun met Kah Wai just after we finished our descent. He just finished a gym session and was about to go home. Therefore he joined us for our short trip to the NMS and together we explored most of the place. All the exhibition rooms were free entry, even though there were gantries at the front of each room. There was a special area whereby an artpiece that uses a machine to produce giant bubbles. Excellent idea and a great picture-taking opportunity! I didn't bring my digicam, therefore just my iPhone camera to do the work.
