Only 9 of us turned up for the outing, initially a disappointment but later on it was just perfect. We crossed over to The Glass House, Fish and Co. for dinner. I wasn't too keen on the spending, but I didn't wanna let it confound the dinner plans. The tele hung on the wall was showing a re-run, so as and when I wasn't talking to anyone, I'd stare up and watch the Wimbeldon Finals.

The Sunday before, I took a bus down to Kristy's place to watch Wimbeldon at 9.30pm, just one stop down at Siglap, while Su-An was out so I couldn't walk down the road conveniently to catch it. My dad's getting cable when we move, so till now I had to contend with no cable, but no huge loss.

I bought a six pack of Jolly Shandy over since I didn't wanna go over empty handed, and Kristy hadn't tried it before. So, watching and drinking, with her two older sisters and parents, all fans of tennis but not ardent players. At about 12, into the third set, rain set in and play was suspended. I looked at my watch, but was reluctant to leave till I saw the results. Rooting for Federer all the way, a real pity he broke his 5 year standing. Finally at 1am, with no sign of a let up, I didn't wanna impose on Kristy, and headed home. She offered me a stayover, but without the parents consent, (asleep by then) and the awkward-ness of it (since I'm not that close to her), I declined hesistantly and walked through the eeriely silent night.

Fed's racket here, I bought it at $235 without knowing it was his, what a shame since I don't conform to the standard. I love it though, but I shouldn't be handling such a racket at my level of proficiency, i.e. intermediate.

So anyways, back to the SG outing. I sidetracked by several paragraphs.. Initially we planned for an evening out, but the lack of people who could come, left options at just dinner, when the poly people would be free.

Here's a shot, clockwise from top-left, Esti, Felicia, Evonnie and Nicole. There were three birthdays going on when we went there for dinner..

Went out for a shot at the iconic LOVE sign, but I forgot to switch off the colour swap function, so some pictures that you'd see later on have all the blue colours rendered to yellow. Really silly. Felicia, Esti, Evonnie, Shaiful, Ivan, Yu Jie and I. Thanks to Gareth for taking this shot. He's in the shot below, right most, with the correct facing of the LOVE sign.

He was hilarously high after dinner, there must've been some spiking in his drink..

I love the effect the light under the seat gives. This is outside Cathay :d

Shaiful's shoes look darn classy, I won't be able to carry it off.

Nicole left after dinner so it was down to the three of 'em. I love the lights outside the Cathay, gives it a touch of the building's own identity.

Neanderthals :D Had some other shots, but these were the best few. Thanks to Evonnie and Gareth for helping out in the messy planning, can't wait for our next! Lets get a huge chalet! :D

The clouds had an amazing display throughout the day today, I wonder how often people my age take the time to stare up at the seamless sky. In the twilight or during the day. Watch the gittering stars twinkle back, or feel the Earth move as the cottony clouds roll by. It's breathless, honestly.

Look more often at the skies and you'd catch something so amazing as this shot. From outside my bedroom window. I'll miss the view from this apartment when I move. A galloping stallion above the clouds, it's stunning. A minute later and it was sheared beyond similarity.

Sometimes you'll see the stretching jetstream across the vast expanse, or the brightest of stars. Lift your head up every once in a while, you may catch something you'd have never expected.
