I caught the F1 Singapore on Friday for the practice rounds. It was a fantastic experience. The roaring sounds from the racing cars were amazing.
I went straight after class & met Eddie at Raffles City. Weather was hot & humid. We roamed around the place to find if there's any interesting stuffs. Wanted to get ourselves the complimentary tattoos but the queue was very long & given the long walk to our seats, we gave up the tattoos & headed to our seats to catch the practice round 1. The walk from Raffles City to our seats was quite a distant. With the many overhead bridges, it definitely didnt make our lives easier. The sign boards werent that friendly either. Thanks to the ushers, we found our gate & our seats. Just in time for the 1st practice round at 6pm. Ear plugs on, cameras in action & here we go.
1st practice session ended at 7.30pm. We bought our dinner (chicken rice & grilled fish rice) at $8 each! The food tasted horrible. Maybe worth for a $1 meal. Oh well, we were hungry & no other choice seems to be around. Then came John & Xiao Qing jie jie. They managed to catch the last 30mins of the 1st practice round. We hang around the area before we head back to our seats for the 2nd practice session. Now the lights were all on. Nice. Called back home to let mum & sis listen the roars of the cars. Dad was in USA so he didnt manage to hear. Called L also. It was too noisy to hear them talking. I just dialled, hello & let them hear. It was kinda boring for us after awhile because everything was just repeating. The cars go round & round. Not much crashes or anything. ~yawns~ Started to snap random shots. Ended at 11pm & left the place. Had a nice cooling slurpee from 7-11 to end my night. =)
Pei Ching jie jie is getting married soon & I'm going to be one of her jie meis. 1st time. So exciting.
Pei Ching jie jie's Dowry was on the 20th Sep. Mum wanted to learn so my family went along. It was interesting but the things that need to prepare are troublesome. Videoed & took photos of the whole process.
