Lull'd by the moonlight have all pass'd away"

Been busy to blog again. And as usual, this is a dated entry but well, better late than never. ;) Anyways, check the following pic out! Haha... this was something u missed out on Mandy! Now, kick urself in the ass. Haha!

Just something we managed to snap after dinner the other day. YY honing her aunty skills at the lucky draw booth outside the supermarket. Boo! Caught ya red handed! Don't deny it. That's U!

Alright... back to the 31st dec '07! Now tell me... just how wonderful it is when ur last outing of the year coincidentally is ur 1st outing of the year? And who did u spend it with? I guess 2007 certainly was an eventful year for me, just like it must have been for u. 2008, will be yet another great year I bet. It was one which I'd waited for years and FINALLY.. it's here. =) Yippeee yeah!

Made any new year resolutions? To be honest, I haven't. In fact, I haven't in years. Never believed in making new year resolutions cos knowing myself, i'd never stick to them. I guess Bryan W sums it up best after receiving news of his friend's demise when he said "I shall live for the moment and not plan that much ahead( how could we know wat will happen in ten years when we could hardly forsee what will happen in the next hour)". Well said isn't it?

Met Mandy for dinner after she knocked off from work. It was her last day there and she received bags of lovely gifts! How nice of her colleagues eh! And yeah! Ignore that stingy boss of urs Mandy! Haha! Got gl to exercise his manliness too which he gladly did of course. Haha. No pix though as we conveniently bitched abt loadsa stuff, especially *THAT* tt we forgot! No worries! This wk alright! ;)

I thought the high tech gun was pretty cool actually.

Mandy had to leave after dinner but she was nice enough to accompany us to collect the movie tix before abandoning us. Haha.. she's gonna kill me for saying this. And guess which movie we caught? Aliens vs. predator - requiem. *faints* Wth, I haven't even caught AVP la. Haha... But well, Gl wanted to catch it on the release day, so...yeah. The first half of the movie started off really s.l.o.w. Wished there were more fighting/gory scenes though. As for those who haven't yet caught it and are wondering if they shld, I'd say, unless ur a die hard fan, you can actually give this a miss actually. You know... I often read abt movie reviews that criticise movie sequels to the pits and praising part 1s almost to the heavens tt I really am ultra interested to catch AVP just to see how good a show tt was to actually warrant a part 2. If I'm not wrong, Channel 5 is gonna show it soon. Cool. Remind me to catch it!

After movie, we went to meet janet after she was done with church. Though we kinda expected it... but still... GAWD! Everywhere was jam-packed! Check the following pix out. Kinda lazy to collage the pix... so there'd be a slew of them, including some grossly fugly shots. Sorry abt it. :) Haha...

We snapped pix as we walked, talked, joked, ate ice-cream and body-mingled with strangers. Thank goodness for the good weather cos it made the crowd more bearable. =)

PIX GALORE!!!!

Yup! This is just one of the many fugly shots taken by gl.

Jan with yummy ice cream in hand & me!

While waiting for gl to find a trashbin, we snapped another fugly shot. Oh! That black patch on my face's the shadow cast by jan and her phone. Think she's kinda proud of her photography skills actually. haha ;)

After walking countless of tiny steps with the crazy crowd and getting stuck behind several barriers for god knows how long, we finally reached that strategic spot to view the fireworks. Actually, we have that one brave soul right in front to thank for removing the barrier and allowing the whole crowd of us to dash across the road and inch nearer to our desired viewing spot. Imagine how crazily fun it was when the barrier was broken and the whole throng of us ran across the road shouting YAY! Haha.

Janet and GL! Smile!!!

Singapore looks pretty at night too! Look at those office buildings all lighted up! If Bao were here, he'd really love it.

Pretty night view!

With the crowd. I guess Mr. police probably had the best views and freshest air. (extreme left)

me and janet with the crazy crowd behind us

Hey... I was the photographer for this. Good right?

Ok... Brace urself for the following few pix. They look pretty bad actually. Haha..

Starting with Jan who's beaming! Close up shots always look bad.

Haha.. this is worse. It's even closer!

And I was next to fall prey. GL snapped a paparazzi shot of me on the sly. wth.. i look crazy. haha

Haha.. It's his turn now! He looks really weird here cos he had a mouthful of sushi! HAHAHA

MUMMY!! *sobs* Hahaha

Hot hot!!!

And the time has finally come!! Some snapshots of the pretty fireworks!

Pretty Pretty!

Here's a video clip of the fireworks tt gl took. The 2nd clip's just us fooling ard with his phone's cam mode. Sorry abt it.. u gotta tilt ur head to catch them though. Haha

3 of us smelly bodies on our way back. Early in the morning and we're WIDE awake! Good Morning Singapore! Happy 2008!

Managed to catch a train back to Bedok as they'd extended the train services for that day. BUT the sad news was tt the bus services had already terminated by then and we didnt want to waste $$ on cab fare, esp since taxi fares and their different surcharges are now so complex and expensive so... we walked back! And well... just wanna tell ya thanks for walking me home despite feeling hungry and tired. Appreciate it. :)

2008 already is a great start.

Happy 2008 everybody!
