Night Festival 2013..and 1D?!

Two weeks ago, we went to this yearly event which is the Singapore Night Festival 2013. We only went for one night but I heard that if you go on other nights, you can see other performances or attractions. But it's okay. We can just settle with one night.

There was the 3D projection mapping on the exterior of both the Art Museum and National Museum. Too bad we can't go near the National Museum because it was super crowded as there was a fire eating performance going on at the same time too. So we settled for an outdoor concert..for like 5 minutes before we move on..LOL.

The performance was energetic though. Could tell they truly enjoying performing and there were some people dancing to the music too. I can't even sway because my body is so stiff.

It was quite a long walk because the festival for this year stretched all the way to the Raffles City shopping mall where there was this big screen like the magnetic board which we used to scribble on when we were younger. Somehow the theme was love declarations..unofficially that is..because there were couples who wrote their love messages on the board and took pictures of it. Sweet..but I guess one is enough to make it all saccharine sweet..haha.

We took a quick break behind the Art Museum where there was the fountain and a seat for us to enjoy our snacks. Of course it was photo taking moment as well because the fountain is always a fantastic backdrop for photos, right?
















Oh by the way, before we started our walk exploring the various events, we actually stopped by a small set up called the 1D world, which I exclaimed to my brother that this isn't part of the Night Festival. But it's interesting enough how they manage to rake in the dollars even before the opening of their movie This is us by selling their merchandise.

They're like the biggest boyband around..at least for now because case in point, have you heard of the Jonas Brother and whatever has happened to them now? If you haven't heard of them, well I don't think you ever NOT heard of them..haha.


Obviously I didn't buy any of their merchandise but my brother did snap some pictures.

The Defaced Poster..haha

Look at all the merchandise.....

Can't meet them? Just take a picture with one of their posters!

Are you ready for the 1D world to take over your world?! Wait, it has already?!

The Night Festival is already over by the time I write this post. I hope you have made your trip at least once to enjoy the event. For me and my brother, we are always looking out for events or outings that do not involve much money. Better yet, free. I shall do another two posts featuring such outings. 

Have a great week ahead!

One Step at A Time

Hello there It has been a while, right? I used to treat this blog as a place for me to rant, talk about nonsensical things and interests that, when I think back about it, were pretty cringeworthy. But it was part of the process of me growing up and navigating through my life which is full of ups and downs, just like the tidal waves. I still need a form of outlet to write out my thoughts and I have been journaling for the last few years. At first, I was still writing nonsense, or simply writing about how my day went, but I try to make it a more conscious journalling where I will write about things that I can take lessons from or to reflect on. So how has life been for me? Well, I no longer am running an online shop where I used to do customised cards and then just specializing in box cards. I do want to have an online business, preferably one I don't have to travel to meet people.  If you read my last post about being zen, I think I have 'tripled' the amount of zen inside of...

Listen to Me

It kinda irks me when I am trying to express an opinion or sharing a piece of knowledge but it's met with strong objection or Im being cut half way before I even finished. I mean...come on...does it hurt to actually listen first, doesnt matter if u agree or not? Yes I know everyone is entitled to their own opinions but it's frustrating because I feel like a sore loser. That sort of conversation is actually begging to be turned into some huge argument if I am equally annoying and equally strong headed as well. But I dont want to do that especially if they are my friends. Then again, I am subjected to being called a wimp or somebody who cant stand up strong against what she believes in or her own opinions. That will sorta give the person a sense of pride for getting a landslide victory. At first I used to think that hey, maybe the person has a point and I am wrong. But come to think of it, that's bull! It's one thing not to argue and another thing to let ur own opinions b...

Not Gone from Good

Life hasn't been good lately especially in the last two weeks. The latest news is that it seems that almost everyone has an increase in their pay due to changes in the civil servant wage scale and very unfortunately, my group didn't get it. So my boss, whose post is that of a manager and the operations manager, have quite a significant salary rise.  I heard she got a 10% pay rise. 10%!!! look, even the attendants got a pay rise. What we got? nada! zilch! Why? Because apparently our salary is of a competitive range. Sigh, such is the unfairness of life. I'm already struggling as it is and then apparently now, the rich has become richer. The poor remains nothing but a destitute mess. So I guess the only chance for a pay rise is for me to be promoted and though I do not know how much pay rise will that be, at least it is going to be slightly better. The problem is that I have no clue when I will get promoted. I am not one of those people with many super ideas that will great...
