Patriotic
Monday, August 08, 2005
Monday, August 08, 2005
I'm in a patriotic mood right now after the National Day's celebrations in sch. Those Sing Singapore songs are playing non-stop in my head. Ha, even wore a red shirt to sch today despite knowing the fact that red plus beige is a no-no colour combi. Nvm, it's afterall, our nation's 40th birthday, must join in the fun.

We took quite some time to decide on where to go n what to do after that, but managed to reach a conclusion that we should head down to Bugis. Had lunch at a thai restaurant. Prices were reasonable n the food was really good. HF was tearing like mad after gobbling down that bowl of green curry n sk looked as though he's going to pen1 huo3 any moment. Ha, I'm immune to spicy food so the meal was simply enjoyable to me. Walked around Bugis street and had dessert(HF's recommendation) at a shop selling Taiwanese Mango ice n strawberry ice. It was heavenly n I started making weird noises, much to jinx's amusement.
Went to the guan yin miao later to pray. The temple was so crowded even though it's a monday afternoon.

The 2 guys went off(to god knows where..=P) while jinx n I headed towards The National Library. It's my first time visiting it since it opened 2 weeks ago. We were so so impressed by all the stuff in the library. Though we missed the red-brick building a lot, I can't help but admit that this new library is really really cool. Despite it having 16 levels, we can only borrow books from the basement level n the books there are those which u can find in almost every other library.

That's not really important anyway cos what impressed me most was the reference books sections. The collection of books is really huge, but very well-organised. They don't just dump all books on sociology in a corner. Books under sociology were further classified according to their nature. Jinx n I were delighted over our finds at the chinese reference books section cos there were so many books on Hong Lou Meng!!! Spent quite some time browsing through almost every book on Hong Lou Meng. Too bad all these books cannot be loan out!!!!! *pouts*

Over at the Singapore reference section, we discovered the whole collection of Dian Shi Guang Bo Zhou Kan (aka the ancestor of I-weekly). We found issue no.1 from 1973, priced at only 50 cents, compared to I-weekly now which costs 2 bucks! The magazines were in good condition n we had a great time browsing through them, laughing at the song-ness of the content n constumes of the people. We were so engrossed with exploring the library that we diden realise that we had actually spent 5 hrs in there! haha...

The National Library is a great place for mugging. I love the way the sun shines through the floor-to-ceiling windows n how we can view the sea n the bustling city life through those windows. Think I shall try going there to mug next time.

Wee~Looking forward to the 2 days' break ahead of me.
