Race to the finish

Last night was sure one hell of an action-packed one! As we all know, Singapore was hosting its first ever Formula 1 event, and the sound of screaming engines and smell of scorched rubber was none other than exhilarating. To add on to that, we even saw Renault ING's Fernando Alonso perform the feat of taking first place, a long stretch from his starting position of 15 in the grid, after his teammate wiped out in the 15th lap by kissing the wall. On top of that, Ferrari's Massa had to rip out his fuel line at the pits after which he was given a penalty, and Raikkonen wiped out just 4 laps before the chequered flag coming out from a turn too quickly. Our roads are narrow enough, and those concrete barriers don't make things any easier for a car taking a turn at over 100 - 200km/h. Anyway, captured a miserable little video with the N95, not that you guys can really see anything, but at least it gives you an idea how fast those buggers are going. LOL.



On other notes, was at Wala Wala the other night with the little superhero girl, Elise, Min and Juanmei. I totally forgot that the UnXpected were not playing that night, leading to a rude shock when I stepped into the bar to find it only half filled. The music, UnXpectedly (pun intended), was quite good though, and more so reinforced the fact that I had moved on from all that metal and hard hitting music that I was so accustomed to. And so we had pizza, wings, and some drinks, and some pictures before we ended the night. Buggers said the 1-for-1 offer was only for draft beers. Somehow though, I ended up an extra Vodka Sprite cos apparently it applied to those as well. Well not that I am complaining about a free drink, but in the first place it was supposed to be a Vodka Lime.. LOL I guess they heard me wrongly over the music, and there I was wondering how come my Vodka Lime tasted more like Sprite.

Less than a week more to ABBA Mania! And then it's time to get things done, cos I can't take the suspense anymore.
