Cycling on and on and on and on..............

After yesterday's dinner with Ben, Jane, Shelby and Theresa, we decided to go cycling at East Coast today...Ther had tuition so she didnt come...Poor thing ...hahah...newae, we met at abt 10 at bedok and headed down to East Coast... by 1045, we got our bikes and started riding towards the direction of the airport...our first stop was at bedok jetty where we saw people fishing and took a few shots with my camera...spent abt 10 mins there before riding off again...we passed places like the lagoon food centre which was under renovation, coasta sands chalets and the udmc seafood place...we cycled until the paved track met a road...there was however an unpaved path nearer to the beach...we decided to take it and cycled to the safra golf and country club before stopping for a break at a restaurant just opposite the the country club...after finishing our drinks, we left...suddenly, i picked up sight of the runway of changi airport just down the road...so under much persuasion fom shelby and myself, we headed down to the runway...we met a main road and found ourselves at the end of runway 20L...and planes were taking off just over our heads! there was a little hill just a short distance away..climbing the hill, we could see the runway spread out in front of us...super cool sight...photoed a couple more take-offs and we were on our way back...by 145, we reached the bike station and returned the bikes...had lunch at viking hotdog and dessert at some waffle place...saw jean danker and carrie chong at macs doing some promotional stint...didnt think much abt them tho...newae, we all left at abt 3 and by 430, i was home, slightly darker than usual...hope your day was just as great as mine...so yea, why dun u tell me abt it by leaving ur mark... and yea...thanks sarah!!! and if i can find a way to put up the pics, i will...

Forbidden City: A Portrait of an Emperess...

"The Dragon Lady is going to get us killed!", yelled the people. "She's a murderer, killing her own son to ascend the throne!" So who exactly is this "horrible" woman? I soon found out after watching Forbidden City: A Portrait of an Emperess at the Esplanade earlier today with my brother... The performance was one of the highest standard... Comparing this to the Believer's musical, Broken-Up People, is like comparing Goliath to David... So was the locale... The star-studded cast perfectly re-enacted the life of Emperess Cixi, one of the last emperesses of the Chinese Soong Dynasty... Cast members include Kit Chan(the singer), Hossan Leong(Can I Help You?, The Donny Lee Show) and Amy Cheng(First Touch)... So i give the show a great 5 out of 5... There are only 6 more runs left so quickly get your tickets and come see the best of the Singapore Repertory Theatre... Tickets are priced at $111, $81, $66, $46, $36 and $11(restricted view seats) for matinee shows and $121, $91, $71, $51, $41 and $11(restricted view seats) for the evening shows... There's also a 50% discount for students aged 4 to 18... For more information, you can visit http://www.sistic.com.sg/ for more details...

Ok...so that was my review about the musical... Really hope that you guys can go watch it to see how the pros do it... Well, it's well past my bed-time so, in chinese, zai jian, goodbye and yeah, leave a mark as soon as i can get the dumb board working...
