Saturday

Caught Inception, late lunch at Oriole — beef cheek tagliatelle and a flat white for me. Headed to the Singapore Garden Festival and was disappointed that visitors couldn’t walk under canopies and alongside flowers, we could only go around exhibits trying to peek into the heart of it. Left and bought something I don’t need from Muji, like always. On our way out of the mall we figured the fireworks (NDP rehearsal) were gonna start anytime soon so we stuck around to catch it. Nice long bus ride home, we sat on a double decker so I spied on every house with a pool. Couldn’t sleep, watched some Letterman, still couldn’t sleep so I packed the work room, my section of it.

I don’t have photos of everything I mentioned, just some.

Preview

I got last-minute tickets to the National Day Parade preview over at Marina Bay yesterevening and i dragged an old friend along, turns out she enjoyed it more than i did which was very nice to witness.

The Red Lions descending from the sky; they were my favourite part of the parade!

Pretty quickly it became dark.

These heart-shaped lights came in the goodie bag, aren’t they just wonderful symbols and so appropriate for the occasion. You can alternate between a white or red light but uh, my light didn’t work anymore when i got home. Talk about appropriate for the occasion only.

FIREWORKS!!!!
