I realised how comical people look when they speak loudly on airplanes because they are wearing earphones. I'm pretty sure the air stewardesses get a lot of this, it must be really hilarious. haha.
When I was in Melbourne I received a random sms from some random number in Singapore, probably sent wrongly. Here's what it read:
"you think I cannot make you happy?"
what a move. when I read it I was like... wth??! felt like replying though, but I probably would have caused a breakup, so I didn't. but it was still really funny. :)
the Airbus A380 is really cool. it's so majestic it just seems like a gigantic bird in the sky. it's more spacious too, especially when you're seated at the window, because probably the body of the plane is more circular. you should try it one day! oh yes I walked up to have a look at the business class too. It was like.. WHOA. haha.
Melbourne was nice. the people there are friendly, and the drivers are courteous. They give way and stuff like that, unlike some Singaporeans who purposely speed up when they see you're trying to change lane/filter out. We visited the Twelve Apostles (a stack of rocks in the ocean) and took a drive along the world-famous Great Ocean Road. The views were just breathtaking. The stuff there were pretty expensive. oh yes and there's just so much land that almost everyone has a decent house/ bungalow.
We also visited Philip Island, where we saw how the Little Penguins waded in from the ocean at sunset to return to their burrows. so cute. pity we weren't allowed to take pictures. haha.. :D it's just amazing how they are able to find their way back home after hunting in the big ocean for the entire day. smart penguins, maybe they got GPS. lol.
yay. ORD soon. but that only means that I'll need to find another source of income! anyone with any job to recommend? :) haha. wa yesterday I went on a real adventure man. Here's the story:
ok I was supposed to fetch the car from my mum's office in Toa Payoh after camp because she had to attend some meeting at some place where she wasn't allowed to park. So I went there after work to fetch the car.
On the way home, I was supposed to take this ramp up Toa Payoh North Flyover which will then bring me to Braddell Road then I was supposed to drive along Braddell Road to Bartley Road then to my sister's office to pick her from work. BUT, by the time I realised I was supposed to keep right to go up the ramp it was already too late. So I had no choice but to turn left. it was still Braddell Road, but in the opposite and there was NO U-TURN for dunno how long.
I quickly turned into the petrol station to check the map. So the backup plan was to go along Braddell Road in the opposite direction until I came to the PIE then exit at Toa Payoh so I can go up the ramp to the flyover again. So I drove on and on until I saw a sign--PIE (Changi Airport). I thought I was supposed to take the PIE towards Tuas direction instead of the one towards Changi Airport. So I didn't exit. I exited at the next one instead- PIE-Tuas. GG! By the time I realised I was in the wrong direction I almost drove until Clementi! near the exit to SIM. what a move man.
MORAL OF THE STORY: Drive slowly near the exits!
haha.
