Up after a good sleep brought about by just one can of Heineken. Its not very often I resort to such measures to soothe my feelings - and bring about some peace of mind, albeit temporarily.

Welcome to a brand new day, and jockeying for influence has never been tougher especially when more parties join in the fray complicating things even further. Whee. Interesting to see how it goes though. New experience.. (:

Had a great time catching up with the class.. Our first outing since we settled into our respective postings two weeks ago with Louis having experienced his first ever book out from Tekong. Hopefully we'll be able to have more people next Sat once the OCTs are out from confinement.. (:

Well Iron Man 2 was an alright movie. And I had become used to a quiet G700 these few days. Met up with them at City Hall before eating at Waraku in Marina Square. The food's.. pretty decent I'll say, but not worth the amount we forked out.


Trying to find 'The Helix'. Today's ST article mentioned that it could have been named 'Chromosome Bridge' instead. >.<


Reached the area but did not cross the bridge as it was very crowded. Apparently we can't cross to the other side. Thus people just remain stuck on the bridge camwhoring.


Three distinct details there.. One couple, one group interested in getting the best shots and whose members possess imba 8.1 and 5.0 mpx camera phones (no prizes for guessing who are they) and the guys who are more interested in army talk (no surprises there as well)


Bayfront Bridge is oh-so-crowded.. Best way to get to the Sands is still by rail.


Took a few minutes to take this shot as before that Jontay just sauntered in between us to snap photos of the bridge and Sands


Initiator of this visit pondering about the design on the bridge, Sands and sky garden? Hm.. :D Aaron so accommodating as usual


And this was what we came to view.. A packed pedestrian bridge a.k.a 'The Helix', a half completed Sands with the rooftop sky-garden and some random cranes on the other side. Shall make our way down again when the giant lotus (is it?) is completed and the scaffolding are all removed.

Dinner was at Carl's Jr (again ^^) and I was the slowest eater (yet again >.<). Their ThickBurgers are one of a kind. Deliciously good (:

Took the Circle Line with Judy and Kaihui.. And I got bullied.. Lol.. =X. We smokescreen-ed KH to try out the Circle Line (even though its a few minutes longer to get home) and did not expect to find it that crowded in a train half the length of the ones on the other older lines. Alighted at Bishan and managed to grab a polo tee from BHG before the store ceased operations for the day. Medium's a wee bit tiny.. but it'll do I guess.

ST today reported that a slew of eating contests are taking place now in Singapore, including a shrimp wanton eating contest that has attracted the likes of America's Joey Chestnut and Japan's Takeru Kobayashi to town. Maybe if they initiate the slowest eater contest I will probably stand much more of a chance.

And I just happened to miss 'Fantasy Comes Alive! in Singapore 2010' featuring FFXII composer Hitoshi Sakimoto. Well.. Did not know about it early enough and the $20 tickets are a steal really for an orchestral performance at the University Cultural Centre (NUS). Next time then..
