There was not much schoolwork to complete. I finally have time to pay my sleep debts and have time for my own self, not forgetting socializing and meeting up with old friends. It has been months since I felt so free.
I met up with my JC buddies, Vince, KJ and KH yesterday. We went to Cineleisure Orchard for a movie in the late afternoon. We saved 1.5 bucks on our tix as the movie starts before 1700.
We proceeded to the basement for our dinner. Cine was relatively crowded with lots of "teenage beauties". There was even a queue for the elevators!
We stayed until 2200 before making our way out of Cine. As we stepped out of the building, we were overwhelmed by the crowd. There were throngs of people on the streets and it was difficult to move around.
We walked for while before seeking refuge behind Ngee Ann City. The crowd was moving in a general direction and we were wondering what was going on. We went against the crowd. After about one hour, we noticed that the source of the crowd was the Orchard MRT station exit. The police set up many road blocks and dividers to facilitate the crowd movement and ensure minimum chaos. There wasn't a programme or whatsoever. It was just too many people. Several were partying away, armed with their weapons, the spray foam.
I brought a camera, hoping to take pictures with some fanciful Santarinas. However, we didn't managed to meet any. How disappointing.
We proceeded to Borders at ard 2300. We stayed at my favourite section which contains all the divination and astrology books. Borders closed at 0000.
We witnessed the countdown near Wheelock. It wasn't a grand one, but nevertheless the ground was littered with foam, streamers and spray cans.
Our last stop was McCafe. Stayed there for almost an hour. Vince suggested going to Party World. Upon arrival, we found out that the smallest room (5 pax) costs $163! We decided to sing another day.
Managed to catch the train at 0120 and took the Night Rider home. Slept at 4-plus.
These were some of the highlights of the day.
The Sith Lords!Wishing everyone happy holidays and a great new year ahead!
