JetStar....Jet what??????

Finally, we got our flight tickets!!! As it turn out, Marcel and I didn't go to the NATAS travel fair, but instead we purchased our air tickets from a travel agency. Apparently, its actually cheaper compared to the promotions that they were having at the fair, and the gal at the agency assured us that its the cheapest we can find. Of course, it make sense when the airline is a budget airline called JetStar. Wow, I'm so impressed..... sigh....but I guess whatever works if it gets us to Hong Kong at the lowest cost.

So, after splurging a small amount on the tix, I had an urge to then make another small contribution to Singapore Pools. Sadly, I just checked the 4D results a moment ago, and.....no dice. Wasn't even close. Oh well......some other time I guess. Hehe.

But today did have its lil' surprises. We adjourned to Orchard cos we had no idea wat to do at all. When we got there, we ended up watching "Assault on Precinct 13". To my surprise, it was not that bad at all! The movie was raw, interesting and violent. It really showed how fragile human life is from the cold blooded-ness(err...is this even a word?) of the movie. Still, eventhough some parts are kinda unrealistic, but thats just me....I go to the movies cos it brings me out of this world and let our imagination run wild. If I wanted to watch something realistic....I'd go to office. Plenty of real life drama there.

After the show, walking around Orchard really makes my wallet shrink...cos I ended up buying a few shirts for myself. Hahahah....well, even though it was kinda unneccesary, but I just love impulse shoppin. It feels damn good just to go out and totally spend money unplanned.....sigh, I think I better exercise some constraint next time.

But here's the highlight of the day (no doubt a brief one)....on my way back home, I was in the MRT when this good-lookin chick entered the cabin. And wat really surprised me was...she was with her kid brother! I mean, think about it...this young pretty thing..no doubt have tonnes of friends, and furthermore its a Sunday.....is out with her kid brother. Isnt that the sweetest thing? Most gals would shriek with the idea of going out with their kid brothers and rather spend girly time with their friends.

Haha...eventhough I was thoroughly impressed, I didn't do anything about it. I left the train at the next stop and was thinking to myself, there's still hope out there. Guess there ARE nice gals out there after all. Maybe one day I'll bump into sweet young thing again.

Wishful thinking. Wishful thinking. Wishful thinking......
