National Popcorn Day~!

It's a bit late but Happy National Day Singapore! Wasn't able to see the Parade but GV Vivo has its own National Parade.. Ms Goh calls it National Popcorn Day (will explain about this in a while).. The sound of the popper going "Pop! Pop! Pop!" and the popcorn coming out of it is the fireworks display.. The people q-ing at the box office are the Parade's audiences who are q-ing up for their goodie bags and when they walk past CB to go up to the cinema, that's call the march pass.. The floor staff running here and there with their trashbags is equivilant to the Parade's performers.. See, its a free show plus you get paid for watching it.. =D

Anyway, back to why its called National Popcorn Day.. Well, becos on National Day itself, we had to pop 100 bags of popcorn to store for the group booking on Sat.. Total of 2000+ popcorn redemption.. Gosh! I think Melvyn was the jialat one since it was he who had to keep the popper going.. What did I do? I opened 12 packets of Jumbo and 13 packets of Cheesy and made 5 pots of cheese! All gone! The sweet peanuts and mixed nuts I packed were also all sweeped away within hours.. Not to mention the nachos that Geswin packed.. Gone! The crowd was crazy.. Was supposed to go up to FLOOR around 2pm with Melvyn but Ms Goh told us to just stay in CB.. The entire event room was full of popcorn when I left as towards the end, we were throwing the bags up that tall tall heap! Forgot to take a picture.. Haha.. Fion is funny.. In the middle of the crazy crowd, she suddenly turned to ask me when are we going to makan again.. Diaoz.. Haha..

Left around 720pm to meet Edwin and Nicholas for dinner and movie.. Took cab down to Orchard Sakura as we were rather late liaoz.. Met 2 of their friends there, June & Eugene.. It was the country's birthday as well as Nic's and June's.. Haha.. Had fun talking to them and eating.. Took Bus to Plaza for Rush Hour 3.. Super funny and action- packed movie! It's a must watch for everybody.. But quite short- 1.5 hrs oni.. Wanted to go for supper after that but realised it was too late liaoz and I didn't want to spend extra money cabbing home so we just MRT-ed home.. Slept for 9 hours! =D


Some crazy poster of Rush Hour 3 that I found on the net..
Went to Orchid Country Club for some exploring and lunch.. It's a super huge country club but rather quiet.. Went into the bowling alley and I realised that it's been such a long time since I last bowled.. Still rmb in Sec Sch, it used to be a once a week thing.. Haha.. Lunch at some cafe.. Buffet.. Die.. I've already had one steamboat and 2 buffets this week.. But quite limited choices mostly Chinese food.. My mum let me drive out of the carpark and onto the road.. It's a cool feeling.. And then we got caught in a traffic jam for 1 hr along the SLE.. Diaoz.. Why? Becos there were 3 lanes of cars squeezing into 1 lane.. Why? Becos there was a major accident, road works and plant pruning in the other 2.. Gosh..

The stairs up to the Grand Ballroom..

Pathway to dunno where with orchirds grown at the side..

The bunker pool..

Decided to try out the Sepia effect on my phone..

I admit.. I'm kpo when it comes to car accidents.. =p

Just saw Beilin's blog and she posted an entry about one particular group meeting where we went to KFC for lunch and started talking about "interesting" experiences.. And when we came back to the Library, we started playing a very crazy game with Hall's and Ice Mountain.. Got the idea from Zhong Yi Da Ge Da.. Haha.. Must make a mental note to do up an entry for this grp.. =D


The Halls and Ice Mountain Game~!

Cherie was trying to eat Wei Lun.. Haha..

Going to watch that Jay Chou's movie, Secret later.. Ppl said that its good.. Haha.. Hope so.. Was supposed to go for Pizza Hut but I would not be able to make it in time.. And I'm so not looking forward to work tml.. It's a crazy 715am shift! With all those redemptions and what's not.. So irritating.. Why can't Singaporeans just take a break and watch their movie at a later time? Have to choose such an early time for their group booking.. Sheesh.. Total turnoff.. And I'm so going to fail the last Ticketing Test on Monday.. I have total zilch confidence and what the last topic is actually talking about it.. And to think that I was counting on this subject to score me a Z.. Haha.. And the Vivo Chalet on Sunday.. Dunno whether I still have time for it.. Maybe I'll just turn up and show face abit then go home to study.. Haha.. And I forgot to collect my payslip AGAIN.. It's been 15 days.. Okie.. That's all folks! Bye Bye Moo- Putts~!
