special thanks to raist for making today as wonderful and memorable as possible.

anyway, we headed over to beach road to lunch after school today. raist treated us to a dish called "chilli mee" and drinks. after the meal, we kind of walked or walking-shop around the army market. i was pretty impressed by the stuff they sell over there. there were the boots, those shoes and bag, etc. the shop i was really awed by was the shop that sells the models of the guns, pistol and rifles or whatever. a small model of the pistol or so i think, costs at least $20. and for the bigger version it was $30, an additional of $10. the army market really stocks some good bargains and buys over there.

following which we walked all the way to bugis. on the way, we saw a "hot air balloon" ride. i was game for a go at it if it costs somewhere around $8-$10.

so we went to check out the rates. and here are the ticketing prices
adult : $23
children : somewhere around $10-13+
toddler : forgot

4 of us. that would have cost a burning $92. we then continued with our journey to bugis junction. when we arrived, headed to the third floor and went into the Emergency Exit beside Kinokuniya. we intended to go somewhere "beautiful". as quoted from raist. sadly the door up the rooftop was locked. but we were not despair. raist was smart enough to suggest another entry that will lead us there.

went into seiyu departmental store. this time round we went up through a door that reads,"No Entry". but then raist told us not to fear and just go in as per normal. up and up we climbed, and yea, lady luck was not with us at that time. the door was again locked. as we climbed down the flight of stairs to get out of the Emergency Exit, the staff, a woman, happened to come out of the door on the left side. or to put it in a more sarcastic manner, purposely came banging right out of the door.

"what're you all doing over here?!"

that woman was practically insane and was not in the right of mind. you should have seen her facial expressions. "you are not allowed to come in here!" she added.

raist brushed her aside and we got away from her "lecture".

and yea, raist, thanks for letting us experience such a "harsh" scolding. hahas.
