Tuesday, went to swim with the usual dudes then i met up with kenneth for fireworks festival. Wee keat decided to go at the last minute and we had to wait for him while andrew, elaine and weida is already at marina square. That bloody bugger (weekeat) took so long that made us miss the FIREWORKS!!!! we only managed to get a glimpse of the very very very last firework and worse of all a huge part of it is block by ritz-carlton hotel thus hence what we saw is untimately pathetic. Expectedly, the 3 of them were enraged due to wk and they though the fireworks starts at 9.30pm which is also stupid... haha... this coming friday and saturday also have fireworks. Friday fireworks is from new caledonia while Saturday is from France. Both at 9pm..After which, we went to andrew's house to slack aka mahjong session. I went home first because i had unfinished business to handle while the rest played first. When the first round ended, kenneth went back as he needs to go karaoke (as usual without fail) with his work-mates in the afternoon hence i played the 2nd round. WK is super duper lucky that he was the banker for almost 1 1/2 hours!!! oh my god!!! Luckily i managed to game several rounds and in the end i won $0.... -_-!!! WK won $40-$50 and he split his winnings to me just because i save him from something which is not necessary for his to do such a thing. After several rejection, i finally keep the money... no choice... played until 7am... Today is Singapore's 41th birthday.... Happy birthday to you... we met up and went to national stadium. We do not have the tickets and our purpose is to watch fireworks but we left the place as there were too many indians around. I not being racist but because farhana is not feeling comfortable with them around as she gets stared from them. Thus we went to the highway near suntec and marina square. I brought a mini-tv hence we get to watch the performance while waiting for the fireworks to arrive. This is the last time NDP is being held at national stadium. Well, it's kinda disappointing when i saw the fireworks because it is not as facinating as i wished it would be. Fireworks from the fireworks festival is much better than this. After which, we went to eat at the food court then we walked to esplanade. It was a strange thing that esplanade is mostly filled up with malays. Maybe there is some malay festival here because everywhere i can see them. We found a spot near the sea and slacked there for a while before we went back... the pathway around esplanade is pretty romantic and is quite a nice place for couples to relax and enjoyed the good time together. Bleaching time!!!
