Sg Flyer Revisited

I'm starting to pen proper entries again, which is a good thing right? But of course, photo entries will be posted periodically (like this one), depending on how fast i finish editing photos. I've had a few free nights last week, which i dedicated to learning to use GIMP on my Macbook. Nathaniel recommended it after i told him Adobe Photoshop (which he is using) is too expensive for me to afford. Therefore... this is the first entry blogged from my Macbook!

A few weeks back, I visited the Singapore Flyer for a second time. I vaguely remembered it was after a night of partying at Zouk so i was in dire need of sleep. We arrived in the late afternoon for dinner prior to the actual ride. The food at this restaurant was pretty damn good i must say. I had this 'seafood baked rice' thing which, for the first time, was stuffed with more seafood than rice. The restaurant does not serve ice water, which meant the only way to quench my thirst was to order. Sparkling water turned out to be a horrible experience for my sis but not for me since i've drank it before. Post dinner, we walked around and enjoyed the view before finally boarding the capsule.

Dinner...

This being my second visit to the Singapore Flyer, (My first visit could be read HERE. It was with ChongQing and John and it was in the afternoon.) I expected it to be slightly different as it's in the late evening. Possibly due to my fatigue, the excitement wasn't there. People around were 'Ooh-ing' and "Ahh-ing' about the buildings they spotted but I couldn't even be bothered about the buildings. Instead, staring at the entire landscape, my mind drifted off. On the whole, the only take away this time round was witnessing the sunset. The sunset against the backdrop of our skyscrapers was a rare gem in our urban landscape. That sunset made me feel even sleepier. I'm amazed No One spotted the Merlion. How disappointing.

Alright, next week's kinda intense. I have tickets for The Dark Knight!!! *grins*
