thats what i call a day

i needed to write an essay for my music module based on a concert; though i had a small rock concert (attended at a Japanese sch festival) under my belt, i didn't exactly have much to write for that. thus i attended this concert, by SAF military band, at the Esplanade concert hall, which i have nvr entered before. upon entering, it really gave a majestic and nice feeling, though i couldn't take ani pics inside, its prohibited.

aniwae, this being my 1st proper, official concert, i didn't expect much. but wow, its so nice being in a live concert! the band belted out their songs so well, and threw in surprises like singing and even mixing in elements from Malay culture. I really appreciate the effort the band put in, and definitely wanna attend such concerts again. (hopefully my essay will be good too!)

then there was this really nice stretch of art, all done by little kids, along the walls leading up to the esplanade:






yea, i'm stealing





forces of attraction





booooo





my fren then led me to the doughnut factory branch at raffles city, which i didn't know of. so there are 2 branches in the city hall area. then we went to the branch below carrefour, where again we got our doughnuts in like 10 mins.

then we rushed to the HDTV exhibiton at Suntec convention hall to catch Mi Lu Bing, but having reached just 5 mins later then their scheduled performance time, they were already into the last line of their song, and left right after. hey guys, stay on a bit longer lah. i didn't even have time to whip out my camera to snap away.

on the way back, we checked out the doughnuts, and the blueberry one was already...



and finally







the words were so big, i had to take the sections seperately...
but my fren told me a neat trick (just using the camera alone, on the spot, without any software help), where i can take the pics seperately and line them up to form the finished product:



it was such a GREAT day!!!
