cheap trills
Friday is here, and yes, it means recess week is coming to an end.
I booked out from hostel earlier than usual today, accompany Wei Yen to National Library Board at Bugis to complete his Observational Behavior project essay. To my surprise, or rather I didn't know, that we can't bring materials into the library. Hence, I happily Viwawa-ed on my laptop in the library while he did is project. The security there is rather tight, comparative to the one in army. Since we rather had some time together, we decided to do some window shopping. And we travelled to Raffles City in the end, and saw the F1 crowd.
Being Singaporean, we enjoy having cheap trills. So we combed parts of the track in search for a good spot to view the racing event. We took some pictures of F1 cars that zoomed by, but apparently, they were to fast to be captured by my camera phone. Thus, to prove our little participation in this extravagant event, we took this. Hahaha.
There is a good spot at Marina Square, where you can see the F1 racing cars rather clearly. They had to negotiate a sharp bend before us, hence they are travelling at relatively slow speeds, and we could pick them up with our naked eyes easily. If not, it would take less than 2 seconds for them to whizz pass you, and you can't even differentiate them out. Oh if you people are interested about that good spot, can ask me on MSN. In addition, you would require ear plugs, if you are a little afraid of going deaf.
Of course, practically speaking, paying hundreds of dollars to see cars flashing by for 61 times is not logical. But on the other hand, it's one grand event that we don't see 'live' in Singapore often. It's the first time anyway, but that's not the point. Like what Leslie said, this is like a once-in-a-lifetime event, and maybe many could come together and appreciate what our Nation has prepared. But still, I think many Singaporeans are still cooped up in the 'mind my own business' mindset, which is rather disappointing for a nation who aspires to achieve great things.
Back closer to home, Wei Yen advised me not to cut hair when I wanted to do so tonight. He said, the barber might be listening to F1 commentary tonight and hence, we are able to prove a positive correlation between the commentary and the amount of hair that gets cut. And possibly, it's going to be more positive correlated than the one which concerns about Singapore playing in Table Tennis finals. But I went to have my hair cut in the end still. Haha.
Tomorrow's outing with my Secondary school friends. Looking forward to it.
Appreciation from loved ones and friends drives my life.
The little things in life. あいしてる.
