Brenna promised she would come to support me, so she came with Chloe around 9pm. told them i won't be done till late. meanwhile i told them to join the crowds at the stage area.
Chloe had to leave around 12midnight, so i walked her to the taxi stand. looking at the long queue at esplanade mall, we called for cab instead.
so brenna waited for me until 01:30, we walked over to Macdonald's at Boat Quay. suppose to show her the beautiful scene of CBD(central business district)but it was locked, so i guess it'll next time.
went home on bus 8N when we took several pictures of people sleeping awkwardly. gave her a green tea bracelet which she even wore it home. not sure whether she still has it or its already in the bin. haha..
(sorry for the blurred images, better qualities ones are with her.)

its teacher's day at YusofIshak Sec, as usual we would gather together to pay our teachers a visit. we met at the kopitiam outside school like older times, just without the uniform.
went to see the CCA awards and Teacher's Day celebration show. was really amazed to see yunwen participating in the celebration, and she did a pretty enjoyable band play on stage, which really brought everyone high. Indian dance as usual every year! haha.. lucky there wasn't malay dance.. (i'm not racist) =)
went for pool after lunch. i really liked the Triple Threat Match Xian created, i hope ESPN will buy the idea from us! haha..

rather hectic week i had for a week 4 since school started. new project topics were issued and new deadlines of course. Implication of Movement; suppose it would be nice to do some photography about it..
was in school every day like 9am, doing work and work, thinking after thinking, lessons over lessons. coming up with new ideas for major, but i guess i need more research...

Ghost festival closure was around the corner. Got up early morning to help out at my grandma house. My uncle, as usual, would buy tons of food and offerings for the 'brothers'. Cooked dishes and dishes for offerings and of course fried BeeHoon for own consumption. I did the cooking! =)
Offering time. It was 4years back since i touched joss sticks. Uncle mumbled some prayers and i was sent down to burn the incense paper.(From what i define, its all just an action.)
Sis came at 4pm and we went for the Singapore Flyer as planned with Adil's family. We were invited to the Police Carnival Buffet Event while Lantern Festival Carnival was going on too.
Helped ourselves with the food and got this calligraphy man to write our chinese characters on red paper. cool! Went up the Singapore Flyer, but i guess i have nothing much to say, tourists will love it more than singaporeans.
landed in the gift shop when i saw this short-sleeve shirt with 6 wheel designs costing $99.90!! In my opinion, i have no idea who would spent such money on such disgusting design!! -_- As for the ride, I would ride again if there's Bungee Jumping from the cabin. hahaha...
Stayed till 9pm for the Fireworks '08 at the Stadium. Didn't get a nice view cause Benjamin Shears was blocking us! hahaha..
Decided to chill at Timbre Bar. Goodfellas was serenading. Pretty cool band, very nice vocals! Saw Dj Ros there too. Simply a nice bar to hang out.

woke up at 12noon, did some touch-up in the living room.. finished at around 2pm when i showed sis which one she prefer, she said the abstract guitar. hmmm.. everyone seems to like that.. emailed Junmin the designs soon after i captured it down.
went down to town at 5pm, meeting xian for Money Not Enough 2. movie starts at 7pm, rather funny show, but surprising sad too! Jack Neo's films are such linked to our life...
after the movie, Kang called. he wanted to meet us for Death Race, but there were only front row seats at the 9:45pm slot, so we dropped the thought and went Wisma for shopping. Kang was changing when i caught him on photo.. hahaha
went for pool as usual and we left back with bus 14. saw this yusoffian at the bus stop, asked her to get on the bus with us cause there's no more other bus to clementi. we dropped at clementi and took a NightRider home. Enjoying everyday!
i'm tired now, so Goodnight!!

met Qin at railway mall, subway at 18:30. took 67 from college and landed myself there early. drew some stuff before she came. ate my honey oats, chicken terriyaki regular meal(which is clair's most disgusted meal), and i was chatting and doing research work already. spilled the super cold sprite onto my shorts! damn COLD!! and also her feet...haha..
walked her home afterwards and came home. just received the feedback email from Baybeats'08 organizer Junmin. she was pleased with my work, but need further details. so i guess i'll have to work on it tonight, cause tmr is the deadline for submission. =)

(i'm drawing now!)
sometimes just sitting beside quietly can be such an irritant.
i wonder when is the last time you showered throughly?
do you know your armpit stinks?
do you know your ear-shit is already visible?
when was the last time you ever keep yourself clean and fresh?
what is Aesthetic to you?
please take care of yourself if not it can be quite a nuisance to others!!
thanks.
