national day.. what do pple usually do? watch fireworks? spend a day with friends and squeeze into the parade to have a feel of it?

well, not for me, not this year.

this year, we went to west coast park to "relive" our childhood days.. (thanks to jayce).. x)

before that, wh n i went to have dim sum at chinatown..


on our way to chinatown. =)

at Yum Cha.

you see, we rarely have time for ourselves.. wh is busy working n studying, and me busy with work n exercising..

he doesnt have off days on public holidays or weekends; his off days are random.. and weekends are usually spent with families..

so it was a gift (which i treasured alot) to have him off on national day..

we had 24hours together.. so we decided to have a day for ourselves, jus the 2 of us.. at least for the day.. x)


wh was saying, we shouldnt be watching fireworks and stuff, instead, we should make use of this special day to find out more about our heritage.. go to museum etc..

hmmmmm.. not a bad idea. maybe we should try it next year. =)


jayce called us at night and we went to fetch her for dinner at west coast prata.

the service was very slow, but then, who can blame them? it was full house!

their food is still as nice as before and that compensated for the long waiting! =D

after idling there for almost 2 hours, jayce wanted to go to west coast park and there we were, 3 adults like kids.

ok, jayce was more like the kid i brought out so that i could go on date with my bf (just like in the 70s)! xD


jayce is brave. she jus climbed the whole thing like it was nothing. it was NOT nothing, it was few storeys high!






they loved this err... swing-like thingy. i was like the mother, worrying about them falling off. =.=


west coast park was fun. we din expect it to be fun, but it was. at least jayce had a kick out of it. x)


finally, we decided to go home. on our way back, jayce mentioned a route that her friend had brought her once and we realised it was Kent Ridge Park.

and so we went to have a look. in the end, we roamed about for half an hour before we decided to head home.

i must say, it was a nice place. a peaceful place. maybe the senery isnt as nice as Paris, but well, it was nice enough to make us feel that singapore has her beauty. =)




it was, indeed, a special way to spend the national day. a day to rem not of the fireworks, but the time spent with each other. =)
