F1 Rocks

Hehe din go this year but I can still remember the atmosphere (and the temperature) of being at the circuit. This year I watched the race at the comfort of my home, instead of squeezing with the crowd at blazing temperatures at the Marina Bay Circuit. Lol the fuel accident happened again. And the 3rd and 1st podium finishes of Alonso and Hamilton swapped places this year, with the 2nd replaced by Timo Glock. Poor Nico Rosberg had to serve penalty for his blunder of going over the white line at the pit lane exit and thus ended at position 11 instead of last year's 2nd.

23rd September 2009, Wednesday

Went to watch "The Ugly Truth" starring Katherine Heigl (quite a beauty) and Gerard Butler (of 300 fame) with the Citi guys. We ended up watching at E!Hub at Downtown East. Quite a nice and funny romantic comedy, something which I wouldn't choose to watch unless people jio. But still quite a nice movie with several hilarious moments. Yes quite some truth is revealed about guys and girls. Go watch it with your other half for a better understanding of what the opposite sex thinks.

It's Ah-ma's ROM! Wow suddenly all the MKG people are starting to get ROMed and get married etc. Stress sia hahaha. We went to Costa Sands at Pasir Ris to share Ah-ma's joy. It was a rather low profile event, but a joyous occasion nonetheless. However it was the freaking hot weather that dampens the mood. The last MKG ROM of Huimin and Albert also made us felt like just out of a sauna. Please please don't hold an ROM in the afternoon!!

We took plenty of pix and enjoyed the spread of food after Ah-ma and Raymond's solemnization was over. The whole event didn't last more than two hours and thus I went back home before going out again later in the evening.
Zhangjing jioed us out to try out some smelly beancurd along Geylang Road. Thought it would be a big turn-out. In the end only Ron, KMS, Zhangjing and me turned up. And it was after some persuasion before KMS turned up. Haven't seen KMS since the last timWe first tried out the 臭豆腐 shop right at the start of Geylang Road. Smells just like dirty drains. Tastes normal loh, nothing much to comment about. But the 炸大肠 was very crispy and tasty. We also tried the soft-shell crabs and 炸金针菇, which were all pretty nice.

Next we walked over to the youtiao shop. Ordered plenty of food. In the end we gave up plans to go for our 3rd stop of dimsum hahaha. Ron went home after that we and proceeded to soak in the F1 atmosphere by sitting at City Hall's Starbucks. Sat there talking over coffee and babe-watching as the crowds dispersed after the qualifying sessions of F1 was over.
