Wow! What a day....after I booked out from Sungei Gedong Camp after one whole night of duty...... I went for a ride on..........

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Although it's just an enlarged version of the old-school Ferris' Wheel and spins REALLY slowly, it isn't really as boring as what some other people feel. Especially when the capsule you're in reaches the highest point of the wheel, where you can practically see the whole of Singapore....got those 'King Of The World' feel, damn shiok....

Security check before entering the waiting area......That's my cousin and grandpa :)

Photo taking session! Basically, the end product just shows the party involved in a capsule and the scenery of Marina, if I didn't remember wrongly....
Then my mom ask the person in charge a question,

"Is the photo-taking free??"

She replies "Taking the picture is free, but having it developed costs $15"

..................-_-.....really nothing to say.....$15 dollars for a piece of photo!! WTH??!! The ride itself already cost a bloody $20++....and now the management still hasn't stop their despicable act of siphoning money from people......bloody hell..... never mind about that....Let's carry on with my journey.

The passageways to the capsules....Feels like going for a flight, especially when the well-dressed ushers are all over the place, but didn't manage to take pictures of them....

Oh oh, the usher before we entered the capsule said something which I personally thought was quite funny... He said "Enjoy your flight." -_-|| Fly for only one round then come back to the same spot.....I think he should just say 'ride' instead of 'flight'....wonder if it was from the orders of the management or it just slipped off his tongue....

My Aunt! Ready and all set to go! Brace yourselves for the 'THRILLING' and 'MIND-BLOWING' RIDE OF YOUR LIVES!!!!! WAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

One of the first picture that we took almost immediately after we loaded the capsule. The nettings makes me feel as if I'm in Jurassic Park or something and high electrical currents run through the nettings to protect us from the Dinosaurs.

Then we saw the first Dinosaur.........

TA-DAH!!!!

From the information I gathered, this species of Dinosaur is called 'Academia-Defective-Stupid-Good-For-Almost-Nothing-Obese-Fat-Ass-Saurus'
Scientists used the word 'Almost' because of their innate kindness which makes them believe that there must be at least something good about this dinosaur which of course they have yet to discover..... :)

Not long after, we started our PHOTO-TAKING FRENZY!!!!!!!

Another Aunt of mine!!! She's the younger of the 2

Like her crazy nephew, she, too ADORES taking pictures...

My elder aunt. She on the other hand, is less enthusiastic about taking solo pictures....This is the first picture that we COERCED her into taking after the capsule have 'taken off'.

This was the second one, after we begged her to show more emotion

Third one....same problem again.....sigh.......

The Mermaid Pose!!!

Some random scenery pics:

HAWAII!!! Pity no hula girls.....

But got Hula Fat-Ass.....

Does anyone thinks this construction site resembles some sort of ancient Rome themed park??

Taken when we were on the top of the Ferris' Wheel

Does anyone knows what building this is?? My mom says it look like a Yakult bottle, but I think it looks more like a milk carton....or mayble something else......*Smirks*

Flyovers and some unidentified piece of land....Area 52????

Well, this is part of the racetrack for Formula 1. And to think that I thought it was a new cycling track initially, SO DAMN EMBARRASSING!!!!!

Our NDP stage!!!! Plus the ExplaDurians!!

MORE PICS!!!!!! :D

Moi and cousin!!

Powerpuff Hags??? WAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Mama and me plus the 'neh neh' of Marina!! :)

Academia-Defective-Stupid-Good-For-Almost-Nothing-Obese-Fat-Ass-Saurus CAPTURED!!!!

The Hunters and the Hunted

Normal parent and normal child

Crazy parent and demented child

My family!! Plus Academia-Defective-Stupid-Good-For-Almost-Nothing-Obese-Fat-Ass-Saurus

Angle Pics:

The successor of the Milkmaid, introducing the Milkchad!

My cousin and her daily intake of capsule

Swallowing swords?? CHICKEN FEET!!! Try swallowing highways!

These 2 pictures look damn obscene man, especially with the phallic shape of the Yakult building *Slurps*

Together we maaaaaaaaaaaaaake a difference:

One of my cousin's missing, and my uncle's trying to tame Academia-Defective-Stupid-Good-For-Almost-Nothing-Obese-Fat-Ass-Saurus

The first pic with everyone present, tried use to self timer function...first time sure screw up wan, especially with Academia-Defective-Stupid-Good-For-Almost-Nothing-Obese-Fat-Ass-Saurus running about....

This is much better!!!

Okay, that's about it for today.....proceed to the intro of the song....
Martina McBride's on air this week! I took the song from her 'Greatest Hits' album.
It's entitled 'Wild Angels', her first no.1 hit on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart.
I love how the song portrays a world where everything good seem to be diminishing not through a melancholic, but instead, through a catchy and lively tune. Also the huge sense of hope that the song instills during the chorus, counteracting the hopelessness in the verses. Maybe I should start to believe in angels too??

Wild Angels

Between the perfect world and the bottom line
Keeping love alive in these troubled times
It's a mircle in itself
And we know too well what that's about
Still we made it through, only God knows how
We must've had a little help
(Must've been)

Wild Angels, Wild Angels
Watching over you and me
Wild Angels, Wild Angels
Baby what else could it be

Well it must've been hard, it must've been tough
Keeping up with crazy fools like us
'Cause it's so easy to fall apart
And we still break each other's heart sometimes
Spent some nights on the jagged side
Somehow we wake up in each other's arms
(Must've been)

Wild Angels, Wild Angels
Watching over you and me
Wild Angels, Wild Angels
Baby what else could it be

There are some nights
I watch you while you dream
I swear I hear the sound of beating wings

Wild Angels, Wild Angels
Watching over you and me
Wild Angels, Wild Angels
Baby what else could it be
