Yesterday, Saturday, was a very eventful day, mostly because it was my first date with Am as an official couple. We weren't even meant to go out cuz I was supposed to be hosting a stupid mooncake show. But what happened was my co-host made me wait for 2 whole hrs and I just thought, "ah fuck it! i'm just gonna skip the show and go out with Am." Lol.
So Am was with me at that time because he's the sweetest person in the world. He lives in Portsdown, which is Queenstown area, but he woke up at 7.30am just so he can go to his parents' place in Pasir Ris to borrow their car and drive to my place at Yishun to pick me up and then drive me back to Simei so I didn't have to wake up so early since I have my own "personal chauffeur". ;)
So we had a very nice and chill Saturday afternoon. We went to eat Katong laksa, then we went to the National Museum, where some exhibition about post-war material artifacts was being displayed. It was quite a cool exhibit, because of the meanings being portrayed. What it was trying to say that after war, there is peace and most of the time, some form of wealth, where people emerge stronger and try to build a better future for themselves. But at the same time these materialistic desires become weapons of desire. They may not be direct weapons of war for killing. But weapons of desire might just eventually lead to another form of war, where people desire and fight for power and wealth.
I took some pictures of some of the exhibits.
I told him that sometimes I like wearing outlandish clothes out just for the fun of it. He suggested to me this. Ha! That's actually JPG's reinvention of the camouflage uniforms.
We saw this old advertisement for an extinct brand of irons. And they had the address of the company there. And we decided to go to the stated address one day to check out what company occupies the unit now, just for the fun of knowing. In fact one day is actually today. Ha.
A pretty Vespa from the post war period at the exhibition.
There was this other exhibit at the museum which we didn't have time to finish viewing. It was kinda like a preview of short films on different aspects of life in SG. I only had time to watch one, which I felt very touched and inspired after watching. I knew I just had to come back and watch the rest. So we're coming back on the next Sunday.
Srsly no one else can appreciate museums like I do. =)
We went to catch The Banishment at The Cathay which we both felt was waaayyy too slow. Though it was a nice reflection on most marriages today. But too many random scenic moments. And he fell asleep and i dozed off too at some points in the movie.
Then it was off to meet the Nicsome, CLARE, and the horny man. We caught the new Will Ferrell movie, Stepbrothers. I just have to say that it's HILARIOUS. Srsly. Judd Apatow is a real talent with dry humour about losers like that.
And then after that we just went Timbre to chill, eat pizza, drink beer.
Goldfish eyes rolling.
Haha check out their faces. =.=''
So there you have it for an eventful Saturday.
