But thats not important, now is it ?Hah.
Spent the morning slacking around ...
Got started on another book ...
And now i can't seem to put it down ...
Argh ...

Left the house late ...
Supposed to meet at 4.30 at City Hall ...
But only got there at close to 5 ...
LOL ...
Met Perlyn and Garie at City Hall ...
Walked over to Esplanade ...
Met HT and Garie left ...
We headed over to that structure next to Esplanade
No lar ...
Not DXO ...
The building next to that ...
If it is even considered a building ...
LOL ...
Yeah ....
We're going for NDP !!!
2nd Combined Rehearsal =xHaha ...
Don't know how HT got tix for this thing lar ...
He still doesn't want to let us know ...
Like some secret sia ...
First thing we saw ...
Was that ...
The goodie bag
Was in a
PLASTIC BAG

zomgwtfbbq
They better not be giving these out for the actual rehearsals and on the actual NDP itself ...
Or else, people are gonna be pissed ... LOL
It was funny seeing some aunties with multiple plastic bags ...
I was tempted to ask them if they had just came from the supermarket =p
Kiasuism ... Typical Singaporeans ... Tsk tsk ...
We got some pretty decent seats in the yellow sector ...
The people above us were nice enough to open and hold their umbrella's until the sun set ...
Haha ...
Free shade ^^
Let us examine what's inside the plastic bag shall we ...

1) Plastic Bag
2) Craze Pipe Cheese Flavour
3) Bottle of Water
4) Packet Drink
5)Poncho
6) Tissue Paper
7)Sticker for Lucky Draw for Pasting on Plastic Bag For Disposal ... ( Doesn't Make Sense Does It ?)
CHEAPSKATE !!!!!
Thats all I wanna say about the Plastic Bag and It's Contents ...
Alright ...
Moving on ...

Yeah that's me ... I look ... erm ... rather stiff eh ...
But i thought the Ferris Wheel in the backdrop looks rather nice

See the words Super Lyrics ?
It's been on the screen the whole time and remains there till I dunno when -_-

See the 3 Colored Flags ?
Their all supposed to be on DragonBoats ...
But for this rehearsal , they cheated ...
Only 1 DragonBoat in sight vs 2 Speed Boats ...
Guess Who Won ?
The Blue Flag .

See the person in that chicken/fish suit ...
Well all of them looked very pissed from the begining of the whole thing ...
I guess i would be too if i was made to wear a suit like that and stand in the hot sun ...
But it was worth a few chuckles =x

Perlyn's Fav Thing I Guess ...
There's like a gazillion pics of this ballon in the camera ...

If you can't see the words ... which actaully I myself can't see now ...
It say's something like 1st Cab M prob standing for 1st Cabinet Minster
Funny Stuff ...
The announcer talk's into the mike saying ...
"Presenting the Speaker of Parliment blah blah blah ...
And Members of Parliment "
Than after this long pause ...
"Simulated"
I tell you it was hillarious ...
It's like he meant it as an after thought !
And what we saw on screen , one guy holding up a banner ( above picture ) made it even more funny ...
I didn't get a picture but a few mins after that another guy with a banner saying "Last MP" was seen walking up to the last row of the MP's seating area .
Haha ...

"Presenting The Senior Minister "
Long pause again ...
"Simulated"

Simulated PM next to Simulated SM .
The announcer announced the same way as above . LOL .

Simulated President ... Sure looks much thinner and taller =x

Heh ... I must say ... this 21 Gun Salute is not one I will soon forget ... Rehearsal or not !
It was so near ... The ground pounded with every shot .
And everyone took turns to get shocked by the shots .
Though admittedly i was the one who kept getting surprised ...
Haha ...
HT and Perl had their turns too ok !

The Beautiful Evening Sky , Can You Spot The Plane ?

Another View of the Beautiful Sky , The Sun has sunk even lower in this shot .

Giant Ferris Wheel ... A Great View

See those people carrying those signs ?
It say's seaweed on those signs.
WHERE ARE THE SEAWEED PEOPLE ??
WHERE ARE THEY ????
MIA ???

If the arrow can't help you see ... God help you .
Hah .
The arrow is pointing to none other than Ahmad !!
YO MAN !

Think this is the best self group pic I took ...
Gosh I suck at this ...
I needa learn in a hurry =x
Anyway ... We felt cheated there were no fireworks at the end . =/
The rehearsal ended with an announcement " Ladies and Gentlemen , we have come to the end of the rehearsal , blah blah blah , please make you way to the exits ..." What a turn off ! >.<
Anyway , went to Taka to eat the Jap food again !!
Yummm ...
Went for Gelato ...
I got Biscuit and Hazelnut ...
Mmmmm ...
All that fat =x
Walked to PS ...
And who should we meet there ...
But
Ahmad !!
LOL
Yeah ... Sheer luck man !
Went to Mac to chill out for awhile ...
Perl left ...
Talked about the rehearsal ...
All the funny stuff that happened ...
We left around 11.30 ...
Caught a bus and went home ...
Bah ... It's like 3.35am now ...
And I gotta go practice that song for my cousin's wedding later ...
Got a rehearsal somewhere ...
