Night Festival

Went over to find my lil Jiaxin on Saturday afternoon........ She came back from her China trip lo! Missed her so so much.. HAHa......... She welcomed me with the sweetest greeting.. "WeiShi Zeh Zeh, wo xiang ni orh"........ Hee! and then show off her new cornetto mini ice creams.. before offering me one.. HAha..

Lil JiaXin sitting on my out-stretched legs... It was tough posing like this k... can train my abs.. =PUmm! HAha.. eating mini cornetto with a spoon.. How funny =P

Went to meet Mr Koh in the evening for dinner.. A fun filled one! HAha..... Was at bugis for dinner, then went over to NLB, hoping to catch a glimpse of the fireworks display.. coz it was pretty near to marina, so we thot it is the best place to catch the display.. and it was already nearing 8pm.. We would miss it if we were to venture further, to get a better view.. HAha.. So NLB was the next best alternative =)

It was a pretty funny sight, to see ppl scrambling to the windows as quickly and as quietly as possible, when loud bangs were heard (Indicating the start of the fireworks display).. HAha!

It was really hilarious.. It was such a happy/lively event.. But ppl had to stay quiet in the library.. No woos or wows! HAha... Just see, no talk =P

Aniwae, Mr Koh and I quickened our steps when we heard the bangs, but were late.. HAha.. We only managed to see a few flashes coz it was hard to find a good and clear spot, overlooking marina bay in such a short time... The display ended when we found a good spot in the library =P

It was pretty 'sayang' to hear loud bangs but not being able to see anything, but books.. HAha... I can only imagine seeing the display.. Thinking that the display had ended, we began loitering ard.. HAha! who knows 5 mins later, we heard bangs again... Too late!! HAha.......... we have already left the good spot..

But it's ok! We will be at fullerton next Saturday ard this time too.. coz we'll be having our convo dinner there.. I'm sure we'll have the best view then........ Excited!! =)

For the later part of the evening, we headed over to PS area.. Coz i read from the pps that there's gonna be a night performance outside national museum.. A dance performance, where dancers from Italy will dance 'in the air'.. Sounds pretty nice...

Legs were tired and sore, so after lazing around at Mac Donald's, we made our way to the national museum.. It was vvvv packed! HAha.. Singaporeans do read the papers you know =P HAha......

We were early, so decided to visit the national museum first, as the performance will only start at 1130pm..
This was how the big big red/pink statue of David Goliath greeted us... =P

Shock! and laughter soon followed... People are shallow u noe.. HAha!

I had to join in the fun =P
He too.......
Went to level 2.. Still playing ard with Mr David =P
He is very notty!.........
Together! HAha... Good take! =)

Admission was free... So the museum was unsually packed! it was 11 plus leh... HAha!

Went ard visiting the diff galleries.. It reminded me of the excursion trips in Primary School... HAha!

Very pretty 'pong pong' dresses.. hee! in the fashion gallery...

Posing with the antique camera..

Classy...
Some puppets used in puppets show back in those days...

It looks so much nicer now.. With an added modern twist and sophistication! Woo~ totally atas! HAha..

We slowly made our way to the performance venue.. we found a nice spot near SMU grass patch and soon, the performance started.. We were standing on the grass, and it felt funny seeing my heels gradually sink into the soft ground.. ewww.... but who cares! HAha...

Flying ship and dancer in the man made rain.. HAha....

National Museum was painted a pretty shade of blue.. the floating ship and dancer... all hanging in the air =)
Painting the town red =)

The performance was lovely! beautiful and graceful dancers, enchanting music... The perfomance was in one word: Mystical............ HAha...
