又是病猫一只

短短的两个月内又生病了。真是可怜。只能怪天气象女人的脾气一样,一时热,一时冷,琢磨不定。今天既然旷了课。根本不想踏出家门半步。现在也咳得半条命。*cough cough*

21st March 2010, Sunday

After lessons, Jiahao and I went to have tea-break at MOS Burger. Then I went to find my parents at Suntec, where we then picked up Cindy at her school before going to the new Aston's Specialty outlet at Beach Road. It's only 2 months old, and there wasn't a huge queue outside like the one at Katong.

After the dinner I rushed down to Peppermint Park @ St. James, where the ABU vs NBU event was held. It is a live screening of the Manchester United vs Liverpool match. There was some pre-match chill-out thingy. We were to guess the time the first goal was scored, as well as the half-time and full-time scores. Winners get to win cash and hampers! Woot! For a mere $15, we get either an ABU/NBU T-shirt, a goodie bag, 3 drinks, and finger food. Pretty awesome deal. So there we were Aaron and gf, Charles, Eileen and me watching the match with 95 other fans. Rowdy fans they were. According to Charles, the guys who kept chanting songs and cheering throughout the whole match were from SMU gym club members. Pretty nice atmosphere to watch a soccer match though. The match ended with Man Utd 2 Liverpool 1. What a shame for Liverpool lol. I thought they could at least give a draw. Let's see what Chelsea can do in the upcoming clash of the season, where the championship could be decided on that match alone.

Went to check out the World Cosplay Summit Singapore held at West Coast Plaza with Hock. Haven been to WCP at all, so it was a pretty good chance to go there and also to be able to capture pictures of cosplayers at the same time. We had a bit of food at the dim sum restaurant before going around for a shooting spree.
There was even a live performance by the Singapore Wind Symphony. They played songs like Pokerface some more. They even had a medley of Final Fantasy songs. Cool stuff! I took the video too. May upload it soon.

So after that we went to Suntec for the Jobsdb Career Fair. Hock is looking for jobs so this should be good for him. But then when we reached the place, we found that it's not very useful at all. You can actually just log into their website and apply online instead of going down there. What a waste of time and space. We then went for dinner at the Suntec foodcourt. DON'T ever order the ramen from the Japanese food stall. $5 and SUX BIG TIME! I met Sin Shoo there who was having dinner too. Still looks the same. Then I ordered some Potato Salad from another Jap stall. With combo of soup and side dish is only $4.80, and much nicer! WTF!

And so after that we decided to walk around to Esplanade to catch what Singapore is doing during Earth Hour. By the time the clock becomes 8:30pm, most of the lights on the buildings in the CBD area were off. There was even a concert of sorts near the padang. Plenty of people had gathered there for some celebrations and fun, mostly burning candles when the lights all went off.
Saw a few celebrities like the two magicians, JC Sum and Ning, the magic babe, as well as Jamie Yeo. We then walked around taking some pix before retiring for the day.
