9th Dec

Originally a slow quiet day de.. But~ hehe.. ended up running around the whole day!

Goal update:
Vivocity - 75% accomplished!

Went Vivocity shopping again! Met up w Yunxi after so many years, haha.. We aimed to finish level 2, and we more or less did it - shops that are around elsewhere are not included! Gosh, we window-shopped for 2 hours straight, and the best part were all the lovely accesories shops. Oh.. if only i'm not on budget!! All of the stuff are so pretty! Oh well... Then there's a major sale at Guess. the amount of people in the small shop is amazing. People keep trying to squeeze in, but no one's budging! huh~ Shoppers.. -_-" In stark contrast, MANGO is totally empty. haha....

Ok, one thing i don't understand about Vivo, the cafes there are all so small, seating is very very limited... it's super sian. In the end, we went back to harborfront centre's starbucks! hee.. and we got a sofa seat, so happy! Our legs were giving way already~ haha! Really, the array of shops in Vivo is mind-boggling.

Home for dinner, then it's out again, with my sister to a concert by SSO @ VCH.

It was really good actually. It's not the normal kind of concert where we go in, seat down and listen till u wanna sleep... It's wat the conductor called a Promenade concert. This means that we get to move around too.. Hee.. interesting ba~
The conductor talked to us about the music of the various classical music composers. It's a concert to introduce us to the various composers, thus the interesting way of conducting it. They involved the audience in parts of the concert too.
Like this composer, Berlioz, his greatest symphony, the Symphonie Fantastique, was supposedly written under the influence of opium when the composer was infatuated with a young woman. Long story short, under the influence of the drug, he kills the young woman when he realised his love was not going to be returned. One part of the symphony was about 'him' being marched to the scaffold and beheaded. The audience were asked to gather at the front of the stage and cheer at the end, acting as the bloodthirsty peaseants of the French Revolution period. Hee.. Really interesting!
They also played John WIlliams' "Hedwig's Theme", which was written for Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone! Ah~ Lovely... Trust me, no matter how good any system is - nothing can be better than an orchestra. Played live, and you can see the beauty & mystery of the making of the music right in front of your eyes. It's a magical feeling.

Well, enough about that part of the evening..
Ok, all hostelites would have received the MOS party invite for MILKSHAKE which is obviously, on the 9th seeing Zouk-out is on the same night. Ha! So, being free entry, u can just imah-gine the CRUSH!!! Not to mention all the free invites being given out by whosgoing.sg...
oh my gosh... I reached there at 10pm, and the queue's like all the way round the block! I heard from Alan that at 9pm, the queue was already like that!! Fierce... Luckily we were able to get in early. Got to know Evanda, Kelly (ya, another one.. haha~), Ed, Frederick, Gary.. All fun-loving pple, and we had lots of fun! Later on, i managed to smuggle Janice in - without paying.. hee.. really is pattern 'chu dao wan'! Really is thanks to Alan!! =D

It's really a pity i wasn't able to go find Wei. We went in together de, but for various reasons, we separated la.. So sorry gal, i really wanted to find u one, but my phone's like totally flat! can't even switch on long enough to receive a sms.. Luckily Alan's phone still has ur no., and i could msg u from his phone. Otherwise, i can just imagine~ *thinks..* hee...
Oh! got to know this really interesting character, Alfi san! wondering, he should be one of the MOS ambassadors too ba! hee.. And one of the photographers from whosgoing.sg too - Unka! hee.. it's really a challenge to remember their names, cos my phone is down ma~ But i did it! *self-satisfied* haha...
Huh, and there's this one of the guys, shall not mention names - tried to get one of the ladies drunk. It was super obvious. You know, playing 5-10, and trying to pa-ka with his fren to get her to drink. Hah~! He ended up being the one flat on the floor!! and it's really really gone kinda flat. His frens had to drag him out to the cab. The cab uncle even said if he vomits, out they go! haha! Serves him right.. Gal power! *Salutez!!*
Ok, that's the highlights of Sat night.. hee.. so, rest day today!! ^^
